Autoflower Thread & Resource Guide

I have 3 non-topped plants, 6 topped plants; however, the non-topped are slow starters and are stunted. I suppose I should have left at least one of the "main 6" untopped, but i dove right in and did all 6. My grow journal is in my sig and I'll have updated pics tonight.
So no, I don't have a great control so far, but that may change after sexing.

oh i also started giving them a bit of molasses... i had 5 gallons of water that tested about 6.5-7 ph from the fish tank... i added 5 tbsp to it and fed about 20oz each to the potted ones, a few oz to the untopped/stunted ones....

Both grown from the same seed batch, same light, soil, nutes everything.

Not very scientific, but best I can do.

thanks for the demo. to bad it cut your weight, it looks cool:mrgreen: that must be why the breeders say do not top them. i think i will let mine grow however god makes them:peace:
 
It looks like the topped plant stretched out alot more then the non-topped plant. Im going to start some under a light and see what results I can get after my currrent lowriders are done.

An auto flowering plant flowers under any light cycle..
How are you vegging it and then flowering it by switching the cycles?
 
Question about the light schedule... i had my autos under a 400MH 24/0 during veg and the last 2 weeks its been under a 400HPS 18/6 .... whats the next step? do i reduce the light or leave it like it is?

Ive noticed maybe 1 or 2 brown hairs on each bud all over the entire plant so its totally got some time to flower... ill post pictures in a moment... any suggestions?

came from greenhouse seeds bubba kush. hang dried for 5 days. 16 plants fem all veg for 3 weeks and 12/12 under 1khps biobizz everything, cured for a month in jars bureped for first 2 weeks for 30 min a day
 
so you got an oz off of 16 plants..that seems a lil short even after the long cure and drying... how long did they flower for
 
Greenearth, I'd leave those at 18/6....
Actually though, 20/4 is the recommended time on most autos.
Might get a bit of stretching you dont want from goin 18/6... but hell if i know, it's all theory to me.
