getten there lol, next grow i'm gonna remove the lower bud spots to fatten up the top ones.

Hey adam, check out my grow of Auto GG, these take a while, and there's little you can do to speed it up. So this plant is a wierd one, it has a spurt end of veg, then a flower stretch, then a couple weeks later (next week for you) she'll start to foxtail for the next 2/3 weeks. What i did was add mollasses (it s cheap and it's bio ! ) for the first couple of stretches then add mag sulfur + P/K . make sure you have some chelation agents on hand you're looking for fluvic and hummic acid (cheap and bio aswell!) , that should help these gals blow up something serious. let me know dassit 🚀

Hi @adam69! Well, I'd love to help, but we're missing some crucial informations in here. What's your medium (brand/name)? What nutrients have you been giving to your babies, at what frequency? Have you been using some P+K booster lately? When did flowering started? From what I see on your latest pictures, I can tell that they suffered from nutrient toxicity (burnt tips + dark foliage) so I would recommend to avoid any nutrients from now and flush it with plain pH'd water, or add some very light doses of P+K then prepare for the flush next. I also see that your pH is almost neutral (7.0) whereas in soil you want it slightly acidic (6.0~6.5). Have you been using a pH-pen + an EC/ppm-meter? Finally, buds tend to fatten up during their last 2 weeks, so as always within the growing-game, patience is the key 😎 Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

@bobo420, thank you I will probably be needing it

Good luck with the grow ;)

@XpectResistance, I FIMmed the three of them because I read that thing in the link you posted and it explained it perfectly and if I waited just a couple more days it would’ve been “too late” they were already just barely popping out the fith set of leaves so I decided to just go for it and hope for the best, I feel like I topped two of them instead of FIMing but I won’t find out until later I guess, I didn’t want to top because of the stress but if I did it would not be too big of a deal for me but it would be a little upsetting I guess because they would take a bit to recover and autos don’t have that time to lose, I’m trying to make sure everything goes right this grow but it’s hard when doing new techniques and I’m also hoping to start using some of the advanced nutrients line up later on once they start flowering but that’s if I can get enough money for them, I want 7 but that’s probably unrealistic so I would like to know the basics I should have, I have cal mag (knock off type stuff) and some knock off micro nutrients and the fox farm trio, I want bud candy, bud ignitor, big bud, bud factor x, overdrive, and flawless finish and I’m also wanting some voodoo juice But idk if I’d be able to get that for this grow

@adam69, Deff looks like a heat problem to me also.

@XpectResistance, love the saying and thanks for all the help I really do appreciate it, I know a good amount about growing medicine but I just haven’t really looked into the FIM technique or low stress training that much, honestly I started with just topping one plant here and there and some defoliation and with the other plant I mainlined it but that plant ended up being a male (last “season” it was just two bag seeds so I expected at least one of them to be a male if not both) I mainly stick to minimal training and some topping and some nutrients, the bag seeds were just to get a little bit more experience because before that I ran a white widow auto and ak47 auto grow but that had like regular light bulbs and tin foil so it was very ghetto and I only pulled a half off of each plant, at least with the last one (the female bag (mystery) seed) I got almost 2oz but it was very light and airy and it smelled like hay even after I cured it but when it was grinded up it smelled like diesel, I think it was airy because I didn’t give it any potassium during bloom because I didn’t have any nutrients other than calmag at the time. hopefully this grow will be better in the end thanks to you, I’m glad the growing community isn’t full of asses, so far I’ve only heard from helpful and respectful people and I’m happy, I thought I would get more crap because of my bad setup but so far no one seems to care they all just wanna help me get better and I’ve even helped a few people too so I’m glad I started coming here and with the people here I don’t ever really feel like I’m talking their ear off with the subject because they like to talk about the same thing

Yo this one is a short, bushy beast of a gorilla man ! looking frosty af ! hope mines turn out like this !

I LST'ed the crap out of her to get her short and bushy... she would have been alot and I do mean alot taller had I not LST'ed her lol Thanks for the kind words! Do not hate! Cultivate! 😎

@adam69, I LST'ed her and tied her down. I had her spread wide open right before flowering. About two weeks into flower I tied her upright to the bamboo and garden stakes cause I knew the buds would get very dense and heavy so I needed support... and well she just kind of came out pretty close to perfect like that! I agree though she does look very sexy indeed! 😀😎😜👽 Oo almost forgot I also FIMMED her to get all the secondary branches to pop!

Ive seen so many people do it and they make it seem so easy but I’m worried about messing up and suffering yield, I just want the most I can get out of these genetics with what I have

@XpectResistance, I’m not gonna lie I searched your name on here on YouTube yesterday hoping to find a video on how you did it because I’ve been looking to do the same thing to my gg autos but I’m just not exactly sure how, like I don’t know when to do them F.I.M and I don’t know which way to do it because I’ve learned one where you just pull half of the top off (like the side half) and one where you pull the top half of the top off, I think I found one video explaining it in somewhat detail but I couldn’t really follow too well

Man I really wanna know like how you did that because it looks amazing, all the tops look perfect and the buds look fantastic, when I think gorilla glue I think of a plant that looks like that

This looks for me like heat problem Yep pretty shure about that

It’s almost always 82 or lower sometimes it gets hotter but it’s rare and when it does I turn down the Brightness on the lights (only the red) and I have some strong “wind” blowing on them that’s why I have the cd next to the plant because the fan is like 6” away from that cd blowing in that direction (I’ve moved it all over and that’s the only spot that the air moves around all three plants otherwise I would have it somewhere else) (I have three gorilla glue babies and the journal thing is really about the one baby) I can take a video of my setup maybe but it looks like total shit, the only thing that I didn’t find from around the house were the 2 lights (2 Maxsisun 300w dimmable led) and seeds, and I only spent $190 on the setup all together including seeds and shipping and everything
