On the other hand if you want to treat her, and give her a nice big feed occasionally, that&#039;s cool too so that you make sure the entire root system is getting equally fed.<br /> <br /> One thing that was recommended to me regarding the supplements to the nutrients that I&#039;m trying is to add Molasses (as a cheap replacement to ANs Carboload product), which is a carbohydrate that feeds the organisms in the soil, it&#039;s not something directly feeding the plant, but it feeds the beneficial microbes already in the soil, that help with the nutrient intake.<br /> <br /> And as always, best wishes! </div> <div class="bbCodeBlock-expandLink js-expandLink"><a role="button" tabindex="0">Click to expand...</a></div> </div> </blockquote><br /> <br /> <img src="/data/assets/smilies/Emoticon___High_Five.gif" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":d5:" title="Emoticon High Five :d5:" data-shortname=":d5:" />watering-feeding is one of the biggest challenges i&#039;m dealing with, there are some delayed feedbacks as well as quick ones. i&#039;ll try to do my best. yep i&#039;ve molasses, now it&#039;s in my plan so Carboload can wait* i hesitate to give big feeds but i can give a shot. i really appreciate your help and support, best wishes mate a good grow karma coming your way <img src="/data/assets/smilies/karmacloud.png" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":karmacloud:" title="Karmacloud :karmacloud:" data-shortname=":karmacloud:" /></div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">I know what you mean about hesitating with big feeds... What I&#039;ve done with mine is twice given her the regular feed, in your case you said 500ml of feed, and then i water over the top of that with plain water until there&#039;s a tiny but of run off so i know all the soil has got wet, and then waited until the soil was quite dry on the top before going back to the normal schedule.<br /> <br /> No matter what you do though, as long as she doesn&#039;t get too wet and stay that way, or too dry, I think she&#039;ll be doing just fine <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big Grin :D" data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">day 25... she started to show pistils on the top node.<br /> i&#039;ve prepared my pot for lst but i did not start yet, she is a really short plant when i try to bend it some leaves touch the soil<br /> and it seems watering become a problem with a bended plant. any advice would be great as usual<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> love&amp;peace<br /> <br /> <script class="js-extraPhrases" type="application/json"> { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightbox_previous": "Previous", "lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded.

<div class="bbWrapper">If a leaf couldn&#039;t be tucked away during LST and absolutely had to go, I&#039;d cut it. She looks a healthy girl, I&#039;d get a rope on her and start applying a little tension, just aiming to open her up a little at first in the right direction so maximum growth nodes are encouraged. Good luck</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Dadabud I haven&#039;t checked in in a while but I can tell ya gardener helped ya out and that bending her over WIL pay off. You have a beautiful plant growing and those bushy girls come alive when you bend them that way... you&#039;ll get many tops now. Just be easy and progressive with the pressure don&#039;t try and do to much at once and you&#039;ll be golden</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">here is a picture from yesterday (day 30)<br /> <br /> yep i&#039;ve done some lst but she didn&#039;t give some good feedback, i&#039;m sure it was my mistake.<br /> i untied the ropes yesterday and trying to figure out what is wrong.. by the way there are 2 little bulbs for support<br /> <br /> <div class="bbImageWrapper js-lbImage" title="30_day_dada.jpg" data-src="https://www.autoflower.org/attachments/30_day_dada-jpg.480667/" data-type="image" data-lb-sidebar-href="" data-lb-caption-extra-html="" data-single-image="1" > <img src="https://www.autoflower.org/attachments/30_day_dada-jpg.480667/" data-url="" class="bbImage" data-zoom-target="1" style="" alt="30_day_dada.jpg" title="30_day_dada.jpg" width="400" height="381" loading="lazy" /> </div></div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">She still looks a very healthy plant. I think you needed to give it more time, and it&#039;d benefit from LST still. I believe she&#039;ll be entering a period of explosive growth now and laying her down would have helped/managed this. Whatever you choose I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll get some nice weed regardless. Good luck</div>
