Just gave her a measurment. She is now 1' 9". Crazy! And she still continues to grow with 4 more weeks of veg. Crop king says they usually flower for an average of 8 weeks. I have 3 down already and pistils are everywhere.

Sorry to jump in this thread with my own issues, but maybe ya'll can help me. I got some clones from a friend. Jack Herer, GSC, and Blackwater OG. I put them under 3 CFLs (6500k) about two weeks ago. They have literally doubled in size and look very happy. Only thing that worries me is they look very bushy, almost to the point of looking congested. They haven't grown much in height. (I have not topped them). Only thing I have given them so far is light, water, and superthrive (which helped tremendously with leaf growth and color). I have fish food fert (5-1-1) that I will start soon. Anyway, just wondering if I can do anything to help with the height, or if I'm just tripping about nothing. Here's a picture of them. image.jpg Thanks in advance.

Yeah each plant has it's own genetics so it's probably just the way your girls are!

God she is so gorgeous it is almost a shame to smoke it soon lol. But 3 more weeks of flowering then drying and cure! I'll be keeping a close eye on them when the pistils all start to turn orange and brown. Shortly after this the trichomes turn milky/amber and then that is when she is most potent!

Here is week 7 of flowering. Trichomes are milky, I will pull them next week. I'm going to assume she will be a little over an ounce once dried and cured. Also I think the soil i'm using is high in ph. Next time I'll just go back to my other soil. I have been flushing for 2 weeks already.

So basically from reading the comments, you have just been trimming away excess leaves with no topping/fimming? Despite it being an autflower? Well, the only thing I can say to you is.. my hat's off to you sir. :D There is this general assumption, that even if you look at an autflower the wrong way (you know what I mean), it will stress out too much and your yield will be insignificant... all to do with the fact that it's an autflower. Well, your journal is definitely evidence that this is not the case, as this autflower is booming. Nice work man, I'm slowely taking into account of trimming leaves on my next autoflwer. Mine is currently in week 5, so I think that's a bit too late.

Anyways, keep up the good work.
