BostonGirlGrowsanswered grow question 4y ago

As she’s an auto, and it appears you’ve already done it once, I’m going to side with no. Autos are slow growers, and they have a short predetermined life span. They time and energy she’ll spend recovering is going to effect her final size, her harvest and possibly her ability her handle bugs, mold, or other stressful situations. Now if she was a photoperiod- or if she was in coco- I’d think you’d have a better shot of making it work in your favor. 🌱

Suitable growing techniques What would you recommend: low stress training (such as bending, ScrOG) or high stress training (such as topping, fimming) for my strain? I read different things about it.

I FIMed in week 3, and everything seemed to go swimmingly. I don't know that there was any real slowing of growth. I was worried I had taken too much off. Week 4 comes around, and there is top growth like nothing ever happened. Any ideas?

Topping Hi guys. Do my plants need topping if I have little space (60x40x120cm) and I am planning a scrog? Are the plants ready for topping? After topping, I plan to use only lst + scrog, no mainlines/manifolds. I also plan to turn on the lights 12/12 in a week or two. Thanks!

Benefits of FIMing vs Topping? Specific example.First grow. Looking at FIM results I'm super confused! It looks like if I had waited for the next segment to emerge and topped it (pics), I would get the same 4 branches (potential colas) AND 4 fan leaves which I have lost now due to FIM? Did FIM benefit here at all vs Topping?
