Day 42. Tried to tie down the plants the way suggested. Added GeoFlora Veg (second feeding) to all four plants. Watered all 4 (w. added CalMag). Appears that one of the Autos has started to flower. Crazy, especially since I didn’t plan on bringing it outside for another month. Curious how big this will get.

Sooo, was trying to gently bend a branch of my blueberry glue auto for LST and…SNAP! There went the top part of the plant! Didn’t top them so I wouldn’t stress them out and I end up breaking off a big part of the stem instead?! Brilliant. Just brilliant...

Can this Auto be salvaged?
Should I give up on it and start up another seed?

Bending is a multi-day process as you've learned, but topping an auto just as it starts to flower is something many of our best auto growers do, so let it go and see what happens!

Run it and see what she does. Don't have to worry about lst if you go straight to the hst.

That BBa has some nice growth going on and it's not even in flower yet! Are you going to veg the photoperiod until the autos are finished or just let the autos run on 12/12 when you do?

Crazy thing is that the BlueBerry Glue Auto is the one that I accidently topped while trying to use LST on it.

Planning on planting the Photos outside in the next couple days and leaving the Autos in the tent til harvest.

The two Autos are looking good. Healthy and very bushy. The two Photos are looking pretty poor. Gave the two Autos their first feeding of GeoFlora Bloom. Gave the two Photos a feeding of GeoFlora Veg. Watered all 4 plants.

Plants are REALLY starting to stink up the house. So, finally ordered my ventilation system and fans from Vivosun. Will be able to hook it all up to a smart controller monitor outside the tent. SO cool.

Once again, the Photos in the 1-gallon fabric grow pots looked really wilted. Watered them. Hopefully, they’ll perk up again soon. Need a chance to bring them outside and plant them. Debating putting both into the ground or plant one in ground and other in a larger fabric grow pot.
