New Grower short autos; they never stretch!

[nonfiction]

I know how to grow in coco, that perlite was an experiment with a free seed, the dutch passion i paid for I wanted to do right, I know how to grow, I know the basics, but it's been a few seasons now so i need refreshing, plus some of you growers have been growing autos since the beginning, and i go back and fourth I like autos to be honest unfortunetly i cant grow as much as i can smoke :-/ but maybe these think different will raise the bar,


Since I see some interest I will continue to post my pics of think different, just incase anyone cares, if no replies i'll stop! I think i've fallen back into my old ways so my technique should only improve, Im really understanding the growth better now, and realizing if i want until 3rd week of flowering before LST some shoots to spread em out, im getting a great canopy, I don't like LST quick autos, they just get an ugly shape when flowering, less stretching, course I won't know until the end of experiment which is best, but i have a feeling my late minor lst will yield way more, maybe twice as much lol

Also I have a dehumidifer on 24/7 in my apartment so humidity never gets too high, even with regular feeding, I have been feeding coco every watering with no negative effects, I may have went overboard a few hours ago so I will watch for signs throughout the evening and tomorrow morning, but I don't think there will be a problem, Im gonna chill out on monster bloom for a few feedings maybe use some sweets, but most importantly high tds base a+b

TD 1 is on left TD2 on right, TD1 had early LST TD2 has late minor LST to spread out shoots allowing more airflow and a larger canopy i guess

I think Im done defoliating, Idc how close the shit is im just gonna let it be and see what happens, worse case turn it into honey oil

Looking good and as long as they don't show any nute burn keep feeding them. I think your only issue was having your light a little too close the first 3 or 4 weeks so they didn't stretch as much as they should. Happy Growing

I think you're right

now i am continuing to raise nutes, the biggest plant is growing like crazy! after i figure out how to safetly remove my locations of pictures ill post some high quality pics, but i do have another question...


im slowly increasing the A+B flowering nutes, sometimes I add up to 200ish tds additives but ive really cut back, when will i start to notice enough is enough? the biggest plant has obvious burns on the end while the smaller day older plant has 0 signs of any burn and yet is smaller, could it be a big drinker and the tds STILL be too low? even though im worried about burning it because im pushing them past what I thought autos could do, well past lol....


i'm using 4ML per L of AN flowering plus well todays feeding was prob a bit under 1ML per L big bud additive (i had a few drops left i wanted to get rid of bottle) im kind of expecting that to burn the shit out of them but idk no new growth has burn marks, will the plants kinda sag before turning burnt leaf tips? by sag i mean stop praying to the light just kinda relax, ya know? now stretching happy reaching for the light? or is that simply because i just watered and no indication of reading the plants intake of nutes

also i will be ordering more seeds, should I stick with think different or try something new? any suggestions? i want something atleast as awesome as TD, proven, not experimental shit i need something that is reliable

Hi nonfiction

If you wanna stick with DP for another go, i've seen some cracking Auto Ultimates!!

I've also really enjoyed growing their white widow too - it's a strong plant that has been a consistently easy grow for me. I haven't got the kind of yields that others have (like tang etc), but it's one of my favs!

Maybe you're right & I should stick to DP... Maybe I will order 3 more TD and try either autoult, which was what i was thinking, or the frisian dew.... gonna check your white widow journal now

I wouldn't check my journal lol - I'd go look at TaNgs. They seem to get about three times bigger in his grow cab!
