Just Going Straight Up No Branches?

oLd1 · Jun 17, 2021

Got some Photos that are branching. Got some Autos just the opposite one straight stem. Does all the Buds come out on one stem?

One reason I’m asking is I’m thinking of just putting a stake in and tying on to that.

Do you pics of them?

You do see strains like that but most would have at least two side branches, I have one a bit like an Arizona Cactus at the moment.

I dunno about autos, but with photos, if I want them to bush out i'll pinch off the newest growth tip.

My Photos we Topped and have cut some Fan Leaves

Didn’t do anything with the Autos. But they have shot up mostly Open so no problem getting light.

3 Varities. Gorilla Glue, Girl Scout Cookies and Bruce Banner.

Don’t really want to get up to take pictures. Right now my arms are not working and not that easy getting up.

Excess of blue light maybe? Is the growth on the apex strong?

oLd1 · Jun 17, 2021

Running 18/6 on Blue Light was understanding this is what they liked.

Just looked they are getting ready to bloom. We shall see.

Is this outside? When you can, toss us some pix please. No rush.

oLd1 · Jun 17, 2021

I say just a stem they do have the Fan Leaves with Sugar Leaves. Just very open.

Not going to mess with them Blooming we shall see.

Didn’t have my help today.

I managed to get up. Got the easiest out. Gorilla Glue about a month old.

I guess my Photos will branch more considering I Topped them. My Autos I didn’t do anything.

Just give it a couple days, it'll grow like a weed. Your internodal spacing is on the longer side, could just be the strain. What is your light source?

I'd lst your autos if they are inside.

oLd1 · Jun 18, 2021

It was wild I put Fan on them and they really shot up over night.

My Son thought I was messing with him. He asked me if they was the same plants because they had grown so much.

He has been using Bag Seed and wanting some of these. I put up my last seeds and forgot where I put them so had to get more.

I may be way off base here but I have heard that over watering causes a plant to NOT branch out. The logic behind this is the roots are not spreading out like they should because they don't get a chance to dry out some for oxygen intake and begin to rot. What is above the ground tends to mirror what is going on under the ground, hence, no branching out. I would be curious what the experts have to say about this theory. Personally, I have taken great care to not over water and my first grow plants are very bushy with many branches.

thats an auto gorilla glue? i have one that is 3 weeks old today!

mine is not tall, i tried to top, but might have fimmed... lol. i also took off 4 select fan leaves to give light to areas.

I was thinking the same water runs right through.

There is nothing wrong with that plant or the way it's branching out. It looks to be a Sativa and that is the correct grow pattern for sativa. Indica's are short and fat.

I do have an issue with the 5 gal bucket. There is no drainage that I can see. If you want to save the bucket, then transplant to a fabric pot, otherwise start drilling the bucket full of holes for drainage and air flow to the roots. Holes every inch all the way around and halfway up.
That is the only issue I see.

lvstealth · Jun 18, 2021

isnt it a gorilla glue which leans indica?

i think it looks like an auto who started her life in 12/12 light. that is what they do, like the autos version of the "richard" on a stick. at about 2.5 weeks they start going up and up when under the 12/12 light from the start.

That is the only issue I see.

I burn the holes in using a torch, bolt and vice grips. I found drilling I'd slip off or crack the plastic too often. But I agree more with cow bells.

I drilled 6 holes in the bottom and put some gravel in the bottom.

The soil is too wet any water I put in it runs right through.

So have decided to water less.
