I'm a new grower so dont take my advice too seriously, but you'd be surprised how much better those plants would be if you had topped and used a screen. The problem I see with a grow like this is that you wind up with one "dominant" cola (the tallest and closest to the light). This makes your one bud amazing, but all lower colas suffer... I've found for quality and consistency (all equal, all big, all tops) keeping ALL of the colas at equal height is not an option, but a MUST do. Topping also created more bud sites.... More bud sites at equal height = much more high quality bud !

I don't like doing that with autos. If they were photo sure. i don't even like doing lst on them. Had better results just leaving them alone. I know some people have good luck doing it with autos, but I didn't seem to.

Aug8
Fed again no issues.

Been gone a while missed the girls. Gave them both a good feeding and a hug. The one is getting too tall. Not getting it is too tall. My lights cannot go up anymore. Light meter is topped out at 2000 on it. And it's about 6 inches from touching it. I don't really want to turn them down because of the lower buds. I can't even do lst on it if i wanted to because It's to big for me to bend it and it fit in the room.

Anyone got any ideas?

Look tall enough to possibly lay them over a little. What height do you usually keep them from the light during flower?

 

[coolslayer]

howdy, Farmers.....it's been a while.....

 

[coolslayer]

What you got there, memnoch? Sativa, much?

Hey cool they supposed to be girl scout cookies extreme auto plant from ilgm. I have some critical Kush growing inside house and just planted two grandaddy purple at my brother's house. Just no room for more here unfortunately. He is a plant destroyer to so I'm nervous letting him take care of two of mine lol.

 

[memnoch]

Two crit Kush I have inside. Complete opposite of each other. One short with nodes really close to each other and the other tall with far apart nodes. Went ahead and tied it down now. It's going to do same thing gscx one is doing.

Dehumidifier is making the pots dry faster will have to keep an eye on it.
Aug 17 fed again no issues.

Aug 20
Tied the tall one to the room so it doesn't get burned from the light. That plan has been problematic since the beginning. Got nute burned when the other one didn't and grew taller than it was supposed to. I don't like that plant very much I like the shorter one better the buds look much nicer too. Fed them again today

 

[coolslayer]

Excellent.

 

[memnoch]

Well shit, the officer down the street told me I need to stop growing. He can smell it when he drives by my property. I'm not going to do that just yet. I moved them inside instead. Shit this sucks.

Is it still illegal to grow there?

I don't have med card so it is for me . It wouldn't have mattered anyway. It's too close to the street and this stuff is stinky. I'm can't piss the police off anymore I just went to court for some shit last week.

Fed them again today. They starting to look really good.

 

[memnoch]

This is the new setup for them in the house. Shoved in corner by the air handler. That space was for two plants not in flower. Was going to rotate them out. Now all 4 shoved in there. Not to big problem yet other than the smel. The girls scout cookies x really smells.
