They look weird do they work good he must have a 3D printer
@Dkush94 I wouldnāt stress it bro. I tried fimming my auto and I mustāve done it wrong, but it only slowed the growth for literally a day or two, then new healthy growth sprouted. I basically did the same thing u did, only I did it on purpose. I didnāt do it right. But this is what the plant looks like today
Yours will be fine bro,trust me. Just be patient,u will see new growth very soon.
Maybe not recommended by I always top or fim my autos. They have always recovered and produced quality bud.
@Aussie_autos yes he makes great products I already had em make me some stuff and I love it
They are adjustable, and I have a few printers.
Yeah I only stated what was generally recommended
I fimmed mine and it turned out fine(albeit a bit small)
I was just trying to impart as much information as possible and thought Iād done a good job of explaining the āconventional wisdomā of what and why, but by no means did I say that his plant was doomed, or that there arenāt several ways to skin a cat
His primary plant should recover and be fine, and he might get that top to take root evenā¦
I hope my original comments were not taken as such because Iām sure the ātoppedā plant will do fine
![]()
Agree. I figure the reward outweighs the risk ![]()
I sometimes wonder if mine would have gotten bigger if Iād not fimmed but that kind of thinking is what ifās and what ifās will make you crazy if you let them ![]()
For what itās worth, I broke the top out of mine too⦠and hereās how she turned out. Largest harvest vs the 3 samelike others i grew at the same time
People have rooted those from autos but very unlikely you will be successful with out experience in cloning.
How ever! Dosenāt mean donāt try and just see what happens ![]()
Youāre plant is fine though my freind.
You basically just ātopped itā.
In the future if it ever happens again, tape it back in place immediately! And just make sure it is supported well and it will heal its self⦠absolutely any kind of tape works or even if no tape, just rig it up anyway you can that is secure with whatever you can tie it up withā¦
People will tell you to add all sorts of things to the wound and it may help, but it is not necessary.
Check out my first auto grow if youāreinterested, I broke 2 of mine like this, I taped one up and not the other.
Both are beautiful plants now with huge nugsā¦
If you search here for āauto clonesā you will find people that top their autos and then root the top and they will flower out ![]()
Iām starting to think top is best for autos and not FIM.
Top is a small recovery, where FIM is alot of healing and things happening .
But just a hypothesis I have with out any real research ![]()
@emgoldslo Idk how much Iāll have but I am absolutely shocked at what a few of my 7 autos have produced so far. Link to my journal is above if you want check it out.
The ones I broke are smaller then the others.
But their nothing but super fat nugs and many fat colas
so I got no complaints.
Needless to say, I will top and not FIM mine moving forward I believe
I skimmed your journal. Looking good!!!
I had a few runts this grow but I neglected them first 5 weeks of flower because I was in an air boot for my foot and couldnāt do much.
Mine was weird, mutated and runty from the get go, so I was not shocked that it ran small through out
Mine are have been very neglected, I havenāt feed them enough and grossly under watered them.
Adding a 4x6 and a 3x3 tent was a bad idea with my work schedule. Iāve spent this entire grow researching all types of hydroponics and Iām going to put autopots in all 3 my spaces asap.
Iām literally at this moment trying to decide what size pots to go with.
but soon as I can make up my mind I am buying them before black Friday sales are over.
2 of my 3 runt produced the frostiest bud Iāve grown so far. Curing now and havenāt tried any yet.
I have a veg and flower tent. I went with the 6 pot with 60 gallon reservoirs.
I often leave them for 10-14 days at a time.
6 plants in my 5x5 is too much. My next drop Iām going with 5 but will mainline/manifold one for 8 nodes and see how they fit.
She looks awesome !!!
