    Thin black lines in thick white lines on leaf

    Or just pluck the leaf and be done with it.

    Mulch for heatstress.

    How hot has it been? Unusual for a well-watered plant in the ground to suffer. Post up a good pic.

    Agreed. Also known as leaf miner.

    WHAT SHOULD I DO

    Yep. I got a little too aggressive with a branch when I supercropped about a month ago and it broke so badly that it folded over entirely and was literally hanging by what was left of the outer layer. I taped it and staked it, and now it's as strong and healthy as the rest of them.

    WHAT SHOULD I DO

    Hard to tell from the blurry shots, but it looks like normal scaring from injury. Happens at times when you supercrop, too. As long as it doesn't get soft you'll be fine. Stake that branch for support to be safe.

    Topping info anybody?

    Agree that you're late. Any possibility (horizontal space) of Super Cropping and tying down the branches to keep them lower?

    Auto flower questions

    How quickly can you get everything you need, including seeds? You'll need a good 10 weeks for the grow. Depending where you live, you might have plenty of time. Where I am in California we've got more than two months before the weather cools. You might ask this in the Autoflower Forum where...

    Thanks for the update. Some great looking plants there.

    Seedlings ok?

    Second one looks like it pushed itself up out of the soil. Need to gently bury it again with white root facing down.

    I'm confused right now...

    Gotta just do it once, then you'll see there is no danger. Go bend one branch of one plant for a confidence builder. If you bend far enough that it's flimsy (which is what I do intentionally) just stake it until it firms up again and you're good to go.

    I'm confused right now...

    Whether you top, FIM or bend, bringing down the apex of the plant slows or stops the production of auxins, which work to keep lateral buds dormant. The buds break dormancy, and if you've bent the plant or branches over, they'll grow vertically and produce the flat top you describe. I usually top...

    How do you top a plant multiple times?

    After topping the first time you will have two leaders. I let them grow a few nodes, then top again to grow four leaders. Top each of those for eight leaders, etc.

    What are the round nodules?

    It's normal for certain classes of plants. They are part of the system for converting nitrogen into a form usable by the plant.

    found some holes

    Go get a bunch of cheapo decorative plants at Home Depot or something, then plant in each of the holes. That, or just filling them in should send a message that it isn't a good spot for their grow.

    Fabric pots vs. plastic. First impressions.

    I did notice this and wonder about the effect, long-term. Doesn't seem to be much of a problem with short grows in small pots before going to final container, but I could see issues during the long outdoor season. If I'm not happy with the test grow I can always stick with buried plastic pots to...

    Pot size

    How old are the seedlings? I would put them in 1s or 2s as soon as they are strong enough for a transplant, then go to ground when starting to crowd.

    Fabric pots vs. plastic. First impressions.

    First year trying fabric and just moved from 1 to 3 gallons to beef up a bit before going into the big pots. Just a quick note to say that these things absolutely work as advertised, and anyone considering using them should not hesitate. I have no circling or crowding of the roots at all, and...

    Pot size

    I would go to 1 or 2 gallon pots and let them build up some hardiness for the move to the ground. Too many variables to predict how long, but as a guess I'd say three weeks or so.
