Indoor First Ever Autofower Grow ''Think Different'' +some

[smith4924]

just took some side branches off a Auto Wappa that had fallen over so it was an excuse to have my self a early sample...

So I just called advanced nutrients and was told to just do regular waterings with final phase and 10% runoff for the last week then chop. I have been reading over 50 different articles with different opinions and people telling how to do it and not a one was right.. They were not from AFN but other forums and google anywhere I could look. So if I have 2 weeks left then I guess I will feed one more time sat or sunday then 4 days later I will start my flushing with final phase. He said there is no need to do any heavy flush just a little runoff and the final phase will block all nutrients and salts from entering the plants system. Seems like this will be a lot easier then having to use my r/o system to filter and ph 200 gallons I would need to flush 21 3 gallon pots

Hollow Stems????? I have some Auto Wappa's falling over and noticed that they have hollow stems. Does anybody know why they would be hollow. It is going to be a busy day tomorrow tying buds up so I don't have anymore fall over and kink/crack open

Most I've seen are. It's genetic. Some will have thicker walls, some thinner walls.
If you keep a fan on them during their entire life it will strengthen the stems.
Silicon additive will help too.

Peace.

"The next criteria for elimination is borrowed from Michael Starks' book, Marijuana Potency, and involves stem structure. Large, hollow main stems are sought while pith-filled stems are eliminated. Backed by years of observation, I agree that hollow stems do seem to facilitate THC production. You want that in your cannabis seeds." DJ Short

If DJ Short says hollow stems are good, I am with him! Looks like you bought yourself a winner.

Thanks Tav. and 420 they are awesome plants. they just got taller and bigger then the TD.... buds are longer and skinny rather then short fat fist full buds like the TD. I will never do a grow without either a net or tomato cages which I almost used cages but stupid ass me decided no. I have done some things during this grow which makes me feel like a fucktard but I guess I learned a lot too. The buds on the wappa's look like a white hairy dick lol. so many pistols but the resin is just starting to come in now unlike the TD which are covered in resin but less pistols

Most of the stems falling over are ones I should have chopped off while lollipopping them. They don't have huge buds there just weak. I did have fans on them all the time but did not use silica. I just bought a bottle though for the next rounds which I am feeding my clones and seedling now

This is the one that fell off. Seems like it just the very bottom branches that are falling over

looks like 100% humidity and rain for us in maine until Tuesday. been like this for a week now. The air is so heavy it feels hard to breath. All my outdoors clones and seedlings are going out today to make room for new ones. going to take more og13 clones and start 4 more Strawberry Cough and Blue cheese seeds. Flower room is hitting around 80% humidity so not good at all but cranking on the a/c and see what happens

5 OG kush
10 White Widow 5 will be indoor

All going out doors then I put
5 OG13
5 Blue Cheese
5 Strawberry Cough that will be going into flower room when auto's are done...I am only vegging them to be 18-24 inches tall then flip to 12/12

Just started up a/c and humidity dropped to 58% from 85% so I am happy about that an I am sure once it is on for a while it will bring it down more and my temp is 85 so I don't mind it dropping also but I have been keeping temps up so the humidity is a little lower before I added the A/C
