Autofems just a quick fix unless u buy 5.....

....and I say this because I was told to LST my critical jack and I could get 50+ grams off of it. Ill be lucky to get 14 dried and cured (maybe a TAD more)! I was just under the impression I guess that lst'd autos turned into bushy BEAST that grow quickly. Ill give it THAT much, very easy grow, no light cycle changes and pretty much just stare at it and watch for deficiencies. Mine DID have some heat stress so that could easily attribute to the low yield but nonetheless I wouldn'y think it'd hurt it THAT bad considering it was taken care of immediately!

Just a topic I'm like others opinion on... Best yield for auto, to LST or to NOT LST? Side branching was only 4-5 for me and they look very skimp and WELL behind the ALMOST done "main" cola aka WHERE THAT BUNDLE OF POPCORN NUGS ARE! Lol, its got amazing crystals and everything... I guess over all its pretty much what I expected but to tell ppl that u can get potentially get 80 G's off a 45 day old plant from sprout just seems a bit exaggerated and bad marketing... Just my 2. What y'all thibk?

Here she is, today was her due date according to the distributor. Shes guna ATLEAST take another 2 weeks, at the LEAST!

Don't top autos. They don't have enough of a veg period to recover, and not be stunted. And some autos just aren't as productive as others. When I did my first I though I was just filling up a little extra space in my veg room. I ended up with a 4 oz. monster. was totally surprised. She was an NL auto from Nirvana. Did take 80 days to finish though.

I never top plants, only LST. Was just saying!

Hey, just wanted to let you know my critical jack auto turned out to be a brilliant performer and yeilder. I just let her do her thing in a (roughly) 12l pot, no lst or anything, and within 60days from seed I had what could easily have been mistaken for a mature photoperiod strain (like a short indica). The size of the buds on the sidebranches were above average and the main cola was impressive. Dont be put off the strain, so far its the most productive plant iv seen out of say 7-8strains iv seen grow. My dry weight was probs around 1and1/2 Os, i didnt weigh it sadly. Great smoke, all be it lacking very slightly in punch. Miss her already though.
I've been contemplating an experiment.I wonder if you can do the exact opposite of what you have tried and prune any sidebranches to leave only a fat cola. If this can be done to the plant without much stunting then perhaps you could grow em in a SOG. An AutoSoG would have the potential to be very productive indeed....
