What is your biggest question about growing cannabis?

[MmmHmmml3]

@mmmhmmmmI3 Here what’s in my tent now. The two in the back are white widow autos. I only have the photos in there to start them. They’ll get transplanted outdoors in a couple weeks. If you have more questions for professional growers come to me and my friends thread The Great Auto Showdown. He do back to back growing competitions and always happy to help out new growers. Hope this helps. If you zoom in on my pics you’ll see where each have been clipped.🙏🏼✌🏻

Looks nice. I am trying to do my photo lavender like your big plant split into 4 stems. It's definitely split into 2 stems and they each go at a 45 degree angle. Then topped each of them again and it seems to be starting to explode. I see a tiny little leaf, come back from work, it's now a few times larger and see another leaf coming in. I will check out the Great Auto Showdown, thanks. Not sure what's up with the picture. I'll fix it sometime tomorrow.

I do the same thing. I use coated speaker wire. If you see in the third pic I also use cotton twine. I can tie it to weights and really spread it out while using yo-yos to hold them up. How’s your flux going? It’s just going to make due until I get the room of moving the photos outside. It’s only a couple more weeks. I loaded my shovel out too and waiting to get it back😂

Retodd this is just something I figured out in cloth pots I will poke a hole in the side with my trimmers then I take some of that green wire wrapped in rubber this gives me the ability to tie down those plants that grow over the pot edges like the one in the 4th pic on the right side

Wouldn’t let me open the gallery. The whole part of autos is the speed of growth. There’s a unlimited number of ways to trim and train. I have autos and photos in my tent right now. On my autos I’m fluxing them. My photos I didn’t top. Best way for growing your autos is to top after the second set of nodes. You’ll have a north, south, east, and west set of stems then. I’ll tag you in the next post and show you my widows. They’re a month old today. On my photos you’ll see how I’ve defoled them too. I take off all sun leaves on my plants as they grow and the bottom 1/2 to 2/3rds fan leaves. Only defol 3-4 days apart to give them a chance to get out of shock and always right before feeding.

Looks nice, good luck

I have a question about topping and fim. I have been reading a lot on this when trying to decide what method to go with on the autos.

What is the difference between just cutting off the fan leaves so all the lower growth gets light and now you have more colas? Can you get the same result with this and if so, is there any benefit to just cutting the early fan leaves? I imagine less stress and maybe thats the whole point. This would be somewhere in the middle between fim and topping in regards to stress level on the plant.

After I fim'd the plant, it seemed about the same as just cutting the fan leaves off blocking the light. It seems like with fim we are just trimming the fan leaves to let light hit further down.

The plant below was from a lavender photo seed that made two plants (split them right away). The other is normal to large for 3 weeks old and this one is tiny. Fan leaves were blocking this new growth from getting light. Since this is an extra plant I figured f it, let's try this and I cut the fan leaves off in hopes that all 4 sections with new leaves will keep growing.

Here is the past information about all plants

[mingzhu]

Thank you for your encouragement; hopefully there will be good results; I will continue to describe all the plants on other channels; thank you again!

[alltatup]

Mingzhu, They look really wonderful!! It's good to train a Sativa because otherwise, they can get very tall, too tall! You are a very fast learner, very good at absorbing the information you have read from Nebula, and your plants show that you have taken excellent care of them.

[Retodd]

They’re healthy. Sativa is a scrawny plant as is. I’ve lollipoped over the years, fluxed, super cropped, and let grow naturally. I’ve only grown sativa a couple times, but have never cropped it. Looks like you’re doing everything right, so just be patient. Good luck

Additional explanation: I am using a coconut perlite 5 gallon air tank; 4@315LEC+2@630LEC+1@300 watt LED; GH3 combination + calcium magnesium + seaweed + silicone... indoor 3.5@4@3 (high) (Unit: m) I like to plant, like to study plants; so I am not afraid of failure! No matter what my results are, I would like to thank the great forum and the nebula! Because here, because you have aroused my desire to research and plant this magical plant! Thank God; from the current situation, the girls seem to be very good! Add some photos

[mingzhu]

I was the first to try to grow a Sativa-led strain; I read a lot of articles about the strain and read the Nebula article and introduction; selected some seeds; in the training I used the main lining of the nebula and related LST technology; but I don't know if these trainings will suit these strains! I made a bold and adventurous attempt! (This includes more defoliation treatment) I want to know if these buds will produce big colas; they have grown for 49 days, flipped 12/12 for a week! At present, all plants have white hair; but I want to know; I have done a lot of training and defoliation before flipping; whether they hurt them! Thanks for all the comments! Thank you!

[Retodd]

My indoor grow is a 2x4x5 tent and I mainly use it for veg. I’ve grown widows in it last year and blue cheese during the winter, but had a screw up on both grows...lol. I’m going to tag Spidermite and he’ll be able to tell you how well his do as far as mass weight

Retodd - What size harvest or g per w have you been getting with the 450w light? Looking back I should have just bought that. Based on initially plans a larger hanging system would not be ideal, but now it's not an issue. I think I might grab the 300w version of the Viapsectra. It looks like it might pair great with the 54w cxb-3590 3500k I already have. It gives some more red and blue. Mounting might be odd though unless I put them across from each other at a very light angle towards the other light.
