I do it up till atleast week 4 flower Any time after that would most probably not have enough time to affect it because it will most probably be finished up. I've only just grown my 1st 2 auto one zkittles Berry female and a black magic auto that went male so I just dusted it all over the zkittles and it's full of seeds now only problem is they are regular seeds now I'll just have to grow a few of the seeds and make fem seeds if I can get back to this message I'll try send u a pick of the zkittles if you like just bare with me I'm still trying to work out how to use this app. Good luck

So naked, you need to leave her alone and hope she can recover before she’s done so you might get a small harvest. Being outdoors I’d imagine space isn’t an issue so leave her and start again, use what you’ve learned from this! Minimum stress next time forget topping, defoliating and super cropping stick to the LST autos don’t have the time/strength for the rest of it.

You cut all the fan leaves off she has no surface for chlorophyll to generate sugar to grow. The leaves are like solar panels. New Leaves won't grow now. I hate to tell you this but it is not gonna do much. Start another, don't cut the leaves off, transplant or top a auto. They don't have time for these stressors unless you know what you are doing well.

Hmmm, well you are growing outside. Really there is no need to do any lst/supercropping or any defoliation as the sun moves buddy so these methods are really only used in close spaces. Outdoors do best to be left alone and let them become the monsters they are. Sadly, with what you have done is seriously going to hamper your grow/yield. Hopefully it'll bounce back, it should do. But I WOULD NOT BE PUTTING ANY STRESS ON THAT delicate plant. For an outdoor she is very bare have u been doing defol much? She looks like she's been stunted/stalled at some point. Leave her as she is, do nothing but nurse her back to health. Cut your nutes down to 1/3 of what you use if any as she'll overdose with so little growth and you'll get a tox. Hopefully she'll bounce back over the next 3-4:wks. Good luck

I wouldn't do it in this stadium, especially when it's an automatic. Let them grow and try it on the next plant maybe.
