Autoflower training

She recovered nicely from being spread out yesterday. This evening she’s measuring 22” in diameter, 14” tall and had a shit ton of new colas grow up overnight. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Forgot to mention that I followed your training pretty much step by step. I only topped them once then had to supercrop them over due to tent night. They’re in 2 gallon pots of cocoloco with 12oz of living soil mixed in. Wasnt crazy about it my last grow but figured I’d use what I had up. Seems better so far this round

Awesome tutorial Canuck147. Thank your from all us auto growers. We expect no less from you. 🤪 I read all 8 pages just not but maybe I missed it about how tall were they before the first budletts started showing and how old were they when they started flower?
 
Two good questions that I really can't answer - only thing I measure is how far away the light is and I don't really pay attention to how old they are - cuz topping and LST slows them down from how long the seed producers say they will grow.
Sorry
 
man those got good height on them. great job. i am hoping my gorilla girls will stretch a little more but i believe they done tho.
 
do you guys defoliate while you go or do you do it on a certain week in whatever stage of growth?

i defoliate whenever i see one i want gone. sometimes i get carried away and stunt the plant or screw up the flower stretch. It happens to me sometimes so im trying to be more conscious of when and how many i take at one time..


here is the veg/auto tent

back 2 are gorilla girl XL auto, one in front of fan is same thing and so is the bottom left, in front of it is the sour diesel auto.
bottom right 2 are strawberry pie auto and on top of them is gorilla zkittlez auto

im trying to keep mites out of here. i have mites of some kind in my flower tent.
 
HobbitGDF i do when the budlets start forming on my autos i'll remove the biggest fans. Then after they start stretching only the ones blocking bud sites and those that get yellow from age.
 
These are 2 of my 5 autos i got going on 3/5/21 I count when i see the sprout emerge from the soil with my autos. Of course these would of been better quaility & quantity if i'd used 3gal pots. But i tried a SOG in my 3x3 with 7 ( 2 were males reg. seeds ) so got down to 5. Outdoor tent, no heat except from chicken lamp and 2 450r old vipars running 20/4. So not a great enviornment. This past week all of them look pretty good not big as some I've grown in the folgers, these are 14-16" smell lovely been sitting them on the roof for 7 days now 80+f days 45f nights an they are OK. Other 3 still in the tent. I tried to just LST but did'nt like it so i set them free and just anchored down their branches and now they are all released. I think these may be finished about the same time my photos will be on the 31st. Then i think i'm quitting indoor for summer just gonna run photos outdoors, but who knows?? ;)

I defoliate a lot in the preflowering stage and into the first part of the flowers stretch - once they want to work solely on their buds they produce 3 finger leaves and after you cut them off the plant usually doesn't make more leaves cuz it's wants to work on the buds.
 
I do the same thing and defoliate autos way too hard. Believe I’m stuck in the photo mindset where you really strip the plant down but with autos it seems they do best if you only take what’s needed. That’s my conclusion from looking at everyone else’s autos, not my own lol
