this is my very first grow, they are autoflower.. do I top them? 😓 Or should i play it safe, and just let them grow and feed them? I have no clue, I am so over excited they survived this far

Since it is your first grow, I would just let them grow naturally unless you have a limited height. If you really need to keep them short then you can top them, but I think it is better to just watch and learn how they naturally branch out and stretch so you have something to compare to when you do start training on your next grow. Looks like you are doing great on your beginner grow! Good luck.

If you decide to top and LST, please leave about a 1/4"-1/2" of stalk nub, after cut. This helps support the stalk and reduce accidental splitting, when you tie (CAREFULLY) down the resulting two off shoots. Either way, enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Like green machine said I’d let them grow up naturally so you can learn how things form and where everything comes from, I’m just finishing off my first grow which grew straight up with no intervention and I’m now going into my second grow with greater knowledge on why to top and where to lst etc. Looking great so far! Good luck! Happy growing🌱
