Dimming lights on auto's.

DigiDom
DigiDomstarted grow question 6y ago
For the last week I accidentally dropped the amount of light just as she started to stretch. Does this reduce yeilds for auto's?

It could reduce the stretch and so reduce the final height and as a result the final weight. At this point she haven’t lost that much as she’s still growing like a plant in veg.

Male? Or not?Someone said my plant may be a male. I had no reason to believe it was a male before that, there’s no pollen sacks on it at all and I’m 7 weeks into veg going into pre-flow this week. Just wanna make sure I don’t have a male. Thanks y’all happy growing !! :)

for my new grow, I'm curious now that I have all my seeds germinated if the length of the tap root gives any indication on genetics of the plant? will a bigger tap root grow a bigger plant? better plant?

Which strain to make maleHello all, I have a question on cross-breeding. When doing so, does it matter which strain you make the male plant & which strain the female plant? I understand males carry certain female traits that cannot be seen but I would think it does matter, what’s everyone’s thoughts?
