How do I get bigger yields with autoflowers.

HELLO_MyNamis · Mar 26, 2026

Ok so I’ve got 3 autos in my tent right now that all germinated at the same time. They are all the same age and two of them are flowering beautifully (kinda) I just wish I could find a way to make them bushier but I’ve got this. And I also have a fem photo in the same tent that’s the same age as well and she just started fllowering. I’d personally like to just do the fem photos cause they can get as big as I want them. But here’s a few pics so if anyone has any advise plz feel free to let me know. Thanks everyone.

Autos need things as perfect as possible for the first 3 weeks. A good launch with minimal processes that can stall a plant like repotting.
Autos can be topped but only if they are doing well. I ran 11 autos and only 5 got topped the others had issues preventing good growth.
Both enviroment and nutrition must be spot on with no early fade.
And as always, look for a strain of auto known for big yields.a lot of the yield issue is genetics.
There are also things that you can do to stimulate internodal growth for additional stems and stuff.
About node 5 look for the primary large fan leaf and cut it off. This sends a signal and changes hormones to stimulate the nodes to produce new side growth as the main has been damaged.
And also that works like a charm. Used it on my current white widow photos for a bush setup for flower.

You topped them. And very late. The plant needs veg time to build the structure to make flowers. Removing an auto's main cola is never going to increase yield because you don't have the time to make up the lost growth.

You can break apical dominance to make bushy plants without topping by super cropping, and constantly pulling the top down. You get to keep the big heavy yielding main cola and develop the rest like you topped it.

I'm in the middle of doing one now.

That plant should look like a Christmas tree, but I just keep pulling that top down until everything is even. The hormone signaling is now bulking up all the side branches in response to the stress. The kinking over if the stem is key to this.
