You Lst in order to provide more light to lower branches but that makes sense on normal plants not dwarfs. Autos are short and the strains you have chosen are two of the shortest.From what I've read, Auto's tend not to respond very well to training,it slows down their growth because their lives are too short to recover from it well before bloom

Girls look great my friend. Just from my point of view. I think the autos would love some LST. Although I have never grown an auto I know the more light you get to the bud sites is better(which means bigger and better buds). As for the people here telling you it does not have time to recover before flowering they are telling you false information. The thing about LST is there really is no stress on your plant and there is nothing to heal. Hints its name Low Stress Training. I am not growing an auto but I would like you to take a look at the Papaya I have flowering in my PC it is in my signature. Take a look at her and get the idea of what I have going on. Other than that keep up the good work the girls look great and very happy and healthy.

Plants are looking good bro. They are really pushing to start flowering. What is your watering schedule it just looks to me like you might be over watering just a bit. STAY HIGH!!!
 
Ha I love bud porn, I just like to watch the progress that plants make. I have just started my very first grow as well on Friday I ordered my seeds from AMS i got the Medijuana strain and I only chose to germinate 4 and they all cracked open and i planted all 4 on friday and by today they were looking great all showing their green heads. I dont have any type of growing set up or anything, where i am the sun pretty much shines from 4 am to 9 pm so i have them in pots sitting out in the sun all day so i suppose you can say they get almost 18 hours of light and between 6 to 7 hours of night. And so far they are looking good, I will post picks soon but i was thinking to wait until a full week to take pics... But i really love how your plants are coming along and i look forward to seeing them complete their cycle.

Here is the link to the strain I purchased.

Yeah, i was thinkig about overwatering too, so i will not give em water today. Im giving them around 100-150ml water per day .

JusASmoker, thanks for the reply :) This medijuana strain is looking very good, is it auto ?

Yeah , the fun has started, but so is the smell :) So far the Ona is doing perfect job, i have drilled one hole on the lid, and now there is no smell neither of the plant or the Ona, its important to find the balance lol :D
 
Thanks and no its no auto, I dont really even know so much about auto flowering plants i did a little reading and thought about buying one but then i ended up going with the Medijuana but eventually i will grow a strain of auto because from what i have seen they are pretty great and i just like to grow and smoke anyway so i will end up doing it all.

Hey man how is it going? Plants looking good :) .Experienced users say that it will be better if you would not water your plants every day.Use your finger,stick it inside the soil at about 1-2 inches and if it "feels" dry then water.water till it is running out the drain holes then let the plant sit for about 5 minutes to allow excess to run off and then back in the box. With this method the soil will get dry at about 3 days average(depending from many factors). Also if you passed day 21 you should start feeding them a bit with bloom nutes,but careful not to over do it. They need tiny amounts of feeding
 
With an auto flowering plant, when it starts to flower do you then change it from 18/6 to 12/12 or do you just leave it at 18/6 seeing as how its already flowering?

I would think that there would be no point in changing the light schedule seeing as how its already flowering so there would be no need for it but I have also read somewhere that plants do most of their budding at night in the dark so I would think in order to get the best buds you would have to switch the light schedule.

But would someone inform me because even though im not growing an auto flowering strain i would still like to know.

Hi swantip, whats up :)

Yeah im doing the finger method before watering them . And i started giving them bloom nutes, half of the normal half dose , around 0.5ml per liter water. I water them twice with water with nutes and then once with pure water, i think to stay with this schedule for now :)
