What technique for Auto- Top / FIM / LST / Nothing?
FrappaDangstarted grow question 9 months ago
Debating if this should be topped within the next few days, or just grown naturally, or use LST. It's my first grow and only plant that's thriving at the moment and I don't want to stunt or ruin it.

You are the boss you can do whatever you want auto or photo, don't be afraid to explore and watch the plant š but from the pic, I will say do nothing right now

High bro, when you are using HST for a cannabis plant you want to give her time to recover. Because autoflowers do not have this time it is possible but not recommended to use any type of HST on autoflowers. Just because you can not control the time that you want her to start flowering. But LST is ideal for autoflowers. You want to keep these 2 things in mind for LST on autoflowers. Try to keep all the buds growing on the same height and you want them all getting equal light from your lamp. And think about airflow, there should be some space in between leaves and buds. Enjoy your grow buddy!

For your first grow just LST it. The more you leave autos alone at the start the easier it is for the plant to grow a strong root system.

Bending branchI decided to bend the branch to form a bush.The stem was quite thick and when I bent it, I formed a large bend radius, but the next day I noticed that it took a sharp angle. How bad is it, and if it's bad, how to fix it? Thanks in advanceš

whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longerHey everyone,. I need your opinions on whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longer. I think I may have trimmed the main stem too much to the side, and I'm a bit worried. The pictures and the video is in my diary if you have a look I'd be glad

Topping techinque: 4 main colasI'm approaching topping for the first time. The aim is to get 4 main colas, without FIM. The intention is to cut at the 3rd node (cut C) in order to develop the branches of nodes 2 and 3 as main ones. Does this make sense? Has anyone already had any experience with this?

Hi Grow Community! I am trying LST for the first time. Plant is about 14cm hight. As far as I know I need to bend the stem until it's horizontal with the soil. But the stem of my plant is already so thick and solid. Does it need to be rly horizontal?Should I try and bend it more?

Mutant clone adviceSo one of the clones from Candy, a (fem) Northern Lights has 3 symmetrical growth points starting at or about the 4th node and continued on the 5th. So when I top do you think the trend will continue. Any insight will be appreciated. Thankx MrYuk.

PREFLOWER or PARANOID!?!?!?As this is my first grow i just want to get other opinions and be more confident but i believe that this plant is starting to preflower... correct? Plants are at day 23 from seed but seem to be stunted from what i think was high light intensity during the first few days of life.

How can I make this better?How do my ladies look? They are on day 1 of week 6. I would like these plants to fill my 4x4 tent. My question is how much longer before you would flip? Also what are your options on LST, Super cropping, Lollipoping or any other ideas on how to improve quality and quantity.

Well FML, pop goes the main stem.Trying to bend a little bit more, then that dreaded sound, "pop". Like snapping a fresh carrot it is the sound of heart break.
The tie had likely weakened that part of the stem, shouldn't be so aggressive.
Any suggestions on how to nurse this break and mend my broken heart?
