Hey man. First. No. Leave it. Never top autos. The stress is to much.
As far as compost teas. I make my own
You can pick up boogie brew. That’s the shit man. I’d start there. There is more to just feeding your girls tea. You also need to have to right stuff in your soil like extra perlite for starters .
Plus the water you use matters
If you really wanna go organic. Check out “ true living organics “. Great book

You can top an auto and increase your yield as long as it's before the pistils, start forming. Leave it once you see the pistils or will stun it.

Hi @jujuweedman in an automatic plant you will not have a bigger yeld for making it a top, it only serves for the plant to grow more uniformly and all buds are at the same level of light. good luck mate 👍

Compost tea is supposed be done with compost so it’s free if you have a compost bin.
Topping is not guaranteeing a bigger yield , it is a canopy management method that is also helping for light repartition it’s not a magic trick

Autoflowers can be TOPed, but the window of opportunity to do so is fairly narrow, it must be done above the 4th node, removing the 5th pair pf leaves, before they fully open, else the plant will go into flowering and it will be too late. If you have a big enough pot, more than 4 gallon (15 liters) you might not need any nute. Just get a simple bloom nute. If you want a big nute, use a big pot.

Topping an auto flowerI want to top the big wedding cake but I'm worried I waited too late and at the rate she is growing I think she is an auto (wasnt supposed to be). Should I go ahead and top her or just let her go? I have read lots of mixed reviews about topping autos.

Structure question: worth growing out?PSA: don't interfere with leggy seedlings. You'll only do more harm than good.
I tampered with these as I would leggy tomatoes. The stems have broken surface end of week 4 and I'm worried they're not going to hold any late weight..
Should I just scrap this run? I have beans 😅
