My last auto grows shot up at 3rd week of veg and kept growing vertical up to the lights until the tent couldn't contain them, so I had to top them. And the buds were all small & larf. 5g bags / soil & peat mix biobizz nutes on self-watering bases. no pics What did I do wrong?

The plants will stretch for the light.They say its best to let autos grow up to the light which is what I do with autos but yours have obviously stretched too much. Did you get a guide with the light. It would of been best to bend the top of the plant rather than chop but I guess that's too late now.

train them or top them within that first 3 weeks. normally around week 2 or so like day 20, they start to take off and grow more vigourously. if the plant seems super happy and healthy, try topping during that perioud or you can just use lst but after the transition period into flower or when there are buds forming, do not mess with the plant structure. or if youre in a situation like yours again. then try to super crop and bend the branches into a 90 degree angle instead of topping which will remove future top colas. once flower is fully under way, she wont grow more branches and leaves.
