First timer in growing an auto. My question is why would my plants branches be at different stages of budding. Soil- coco coir/ perlite/worm castings
Fertiliser seasol powerfeed, seasol seaweed/ worm wee
Now giving banana tea with small amount worm wee. Have I done something wrong. Plant sprouted 1st September 2019. Outdoor grow.

Im a newbie but I’m growing 4 White Widow Autos and I’m just throwing this out there and I’m sure others will chime in to give you better info but in my opinion it looks like you went a little hard on the pruning may have stunted her
@shano420 thanks mate. I thought I may have gone a bit hard on the pruning. I know the pot is to small, but I just wanted to see how big of a plant I would get. Do you top your autos or do you just LST.

My experience with autos you may have stunted her a little bit with the heavy pruning. I usually top autos one time., and let side branches catchup and Make a even canopy. My first choice is to tuck some of the Leafs for better light penetration, and prune a few when needed. Good luck finishing up.

Keep taking care of the Autos they are just a little finicky, seems like they have a mind of Their Own.

When I top autos I only top them one time. Sometimes they will start flowering before I get them topped and then I just let them go. They usually start flowering between 4 and 7 weeks. But you can get a stubborn one. It would be nice to have four or five full sets of leafs and then top it. Hope that helps good luck.

Hi kellydans
I top my Auto Gold Leaf crop but I have never pruned as I understand that it is unwise to prune Autos as they are cloned with the Ruderalis strain.
Is my information incorrect in your opinion ?
I tuck the big fan leaves for light and air penetration and companion grow Basil and Parsley all in together, the Basil is for pasta and Parsley as an anti-mould agent and salad and the buds for my appreciation.

I agree on autos veg. Cycle is so short and finicky I don’t like to do much to slow down or stunt growth. For me topping one time gives me that nice even canopy. I know everybody has their own growing techniques I usually stick to what works for me.

Sorry Pays to proofread (finicky )
Fina is like Chevron where I am on earth.
May I ask how often you feed your auto goldleafs nutrients in their flowering phase please.

I usually feed once a week. But I also watch my run off numbers and if I need to skip two or three days and just water in with pH water .I am one of those guys that had rather under feed than over feed I like to finish a plant healthy.
