Sounds like you have a good handle on it. Im thinking saying the name of a brand or kind of soil is ok. Its the promototing or advertising for someone else its probably ok to mention the brand of this soil. Id really like to see the ingredents list. On it, im sure some others would too. But it sounds like u have a pretty idea to atleast get ya in the right direction. Good luck ill keep watching if ya dont mind

The last 8 autos i have are wwa and i let one go no lst no Fimā€™d or topping

. This is that one ill send a pict of a topped one when i can im at work. My only complaint is plants stayed so short to containers and the are huge bud clusters its hard to get wind/airflow threw the dense thick bottomsā€¦BUTā€¦ They got way more branches with way way bigger bud masses. I have numbers in a few weeks but id bet the bank the smallest lst n topped plant will give me double if not more then the one not touched. Only thing is i started very early. Earlier then most people suggest but autos grow fast d ny thought is since they have a short predetermined life span try to cause any stress as early as possible so it wouldnt effect them making flowers. No facts to back that up just, my thoughts after research so i tried it. Its new grow is going to be a learning experience. Check it out might help some

@Familyman420 roll sides of pots down looks like you can gain three inches and it should let more air under canopy :+1:

Wow that one looked really good though cant wait see these topped ones @Familyman420

I will top all the wwa then

this one was topped and lst
this one was FIMā€™d. Amd lst. Less tops but bigger denser flowers.
These are about a week old. Ill send u better bud porn after work today. But it gives u an idea.
To back what others have said i did see someone top an auto later and got like a 10" finished plant. It was such a runt. So be careful, or maybe try one or two too learn before u do a grow.

@dowencarson Iā€™m late, but bob31 and countryboy didnā€™t steer you wrong. You shouldnā€™t top autos unless itā€™s very early. Happy growing.

Looks better! People run 600ā€™s a little closer without issues, but you want to gradually get there. The leds are probably about right, although Iā€™m only somewhat familiar with the mars. Not really sure about the other.

Iā€™d do exactly as you plan, watch and see. I probably wouldnā€™t let the leds get too much closer. So watch for plant growth and adjust. The hid, you can probably afford to let plants get a little closer. But you donā€™t want to do all at once. Maintain that gap for a few days, as long as you donā€™t see any issues close the gap by an inch or two and repeat.

With the lights closer, itā€™s also possible that they will drink and feed a little heavier too. You donā€™t necessarily have to change anything, just monitor moisture levels and keep an eye out for signs of deficiencies.
