Hey guys! Having a great time on my first grow, mostly thanks to you guys!
I’m growing either Wedding Cake or White Buffalo (don’t know which, it was in weed from the dispensary)
2x2x4 grow box painted white inside
1 gal pot, ffof/perlite mix 60:40
18/6 under a 32w 3 spectrum Feit LED and a single 9w grow light
I topped my plant 5 days ago. Left the next day for the weekend and my lady took care of her for me! She gave it lots of love but I told her not to tell me how it was doing (unless something bad happened) or send me pics. I’m doing a photo journal of it so I have pics of it everyday.
ANYWAY I got back a few hours ago and checked it.
Number one it exploded in growth, I’m sure I’ll have to pot up very soon to a 3 gal.
Second I noticed 4 growth tips, not just two!! The two lower nodes extended, but so did two out of the spot I cut. Did I FIM or top or a combination of both? Will I get 4 tops now?! :)
Thanks for the help guys

My first idea was to start indoor around feb-March then veg until May-June then put it outside for the rest of its growth and flowering. I’m living in a hoitytoity neighborhood so a big tree of a plant in my yard isn’t the best idea. If I topped it a lot to keep it short it MIGHT be okay, but I’m more worried about smell.
Because of that I’m thinking just going indoor. If I do then I’d build a bigger and better setup with two sides for vegging and flowing so I can have nonstop crops.
Still trying to see what imma do

I believe that's a top. Almost done perfectly IMO. It looks as if you cut the main stem just a hair above the node, cut the fan leaves that were there, and the two "branches" that were left in the node will now be your main two colas if I'm not mistaking. I'm a returning grower and was running hydroponics in the past(10 years ago). I'm really debating on hydroponics this go around because the climate during the summer in my area is scorching hot and plan on growing in an upstairs bedroom, in a closet, in a tent. Lol I would love to see how these have turned out. I'm debating on going with a 2x2 myself and keep 1 plant around 21 inches tall and yeild about 2 ounces. Anyways happy growing! Btw which kind of seeds were you using for your 2x2?

That's one heck of a plant lol
Did you do a transplant from your 1 gallon pot? I see you said you were using fox farms ocean forest and perlite blend, have you had to use any other fertilizers to help your plant, if so, which ones?

Yeah, it’s now in a 5 gal. Used some liquid nutes at like half strength for flowering. It’s all in my journal if you wanna check it out it’s my signature
