Yea I use the squeeze and bend method all the time. And lots of LST, I just don't get too aggressive with the autos tho. I've done 5 or so photo grows and love the result, just seems so much slower. Plus its so easy to plug a auto in at any point in a grow. And i swear I don't work for dinafem but have had the best results with their autos. They have stable strains that produce quality and quantity. @BostonGeorge do you have CJ pics?

Heres a pic of Dinafem's Critical Jack Auto,
This is one plant in a 5g DWC, She was at the end of her flush here . She ran about 75days and i ended up with a about 250g of amazing tops, another 100g of popcorns/bottoms buds.

And don't downplay how good you're doing. Be proud of that shit. And don't be afraid to try new shit. These things are tough for the most part. I recommend at east one topping, or at least fim. But then again I've never been in dirt so I don't know how fast they recover. I've had autos I've topped and didn't even notice them slow down.

Thanks a lot bro!!
Yeah I definitely wanna experiment man... while making sure I don't accidentally kill/hurt my plants.. That's a fine line right there I suppose...
I saw that some breeders such as Sweet Seeds have what they call 'F1 Fast Versions', which are advertised as 'ultra fast flowering feminized seeds'. Apparently they're photoperiods but can grow nearly as quickly as super autos. I'd be interested in this! Especially to experiment with...
By the way, I'm thinking about the upcoming summer and I wonder whether I 'll be able to grow with even hotter temps... Are there any strains out there that are best suited to hot/very hot climate? I know for a fact (went there) that in some regions of Australia growers manage to grow plants outdoor while temps are 100F+, and the results are WOW - some of the strongest weed I've ever smoked. I wonder what genetics there are though. I think they're really, really tall Sativas, which actually look like huge trees haha (check the Mullumbimby Madness strain). Well I'm indoors anyways and so height is very limited, but I'd be interested to learn more about heat-resistant strains in general.

Yes, I think Mephisto ships worldwide. Otherwise you can find most of their strains using the main seedbanks.

Thank you!

Peace,

That dina critical jack was grown in 90° plus temps. It sounds like you know more about strains than I do. I know photos are less sensitive also. Almost all my plants are 80-85 at the tops. I'm just not gonna run dedicated ac.

Thanks! Well if photos are less sensitive then I might just try a photo for summer! Let's see what happens. Peace!
