I can't read all that, but I love your enthusiasm. Your plant looks great! Don't cut too many leaves off. Bend the branches out of the way rather than cut. Depending on how limber she is, it make take a few days of a little bending at a time. Keep doing what you're doing, and if there was a question in all those words up there, maybe someone else can find it and respond. :mrgreen:

looking good there i would use the lst(low stress training) method and tie them down
 
yea I did thank you both for getting back to found some of my girls cats yarn an used that to tie the branches down hard tho there so strong feels like there gonna snap if you pull to hard there by far loose besides few smaller ones and sorry I was asking for pointers from you pros on using ffof an advanced nute 3 part feeding.
plus leaf trimming an any idea on how to get the max from a auto I started

I did I just cut the cords today actually thank you for reminding me knew I had som thing to put on the to do list next it seems to be working great its helping the light hit the lower inside branches, I trimmed the middle section out of th plan to help it a little better but the colas are getting so big an close an I cant stretch them apart due to how fat the branches are at the top so I cant stretch them apart or the main stock will snap
here is a pic of the to where it has a lot of tops I tried to bend them down a tiny bit an this happen but this is what it looks like now tho it healed up good but I took the tops an popped them an bent before flowering so it put fat fat knots in every branch

Yeah. Lst that. And.lst is the key to huge autos. Like. Huge. Autos...and trimming during flowering isnt suggested. Looks good though man.

kool ty yea I just started a auto but my main photo I just started is from the pics sucks this one strain my buddy made takes longer to flower just about 3 months went from 4 an having only 1 female out of the 4.
yea I do lst with the lower branches most I can do at the top is shake the top or just hang out show it some love an separate them by hand for a little an quick question I thought so you don't trim in flower but what about the leafs under Neath that look like shit an are not developing for crap im running 600w ipower super hps bulb that is bright as shit an it still isn't getting the proper light about to hook up a reflector run a cfl or 50=100w hps bulb under there on another fixture ill just raise my plat an put he reflector facing under Neath idk maybe I just smoked to much an my minds fucked tonight thank you tho
if you look to the left or righ under Neath you can see where the leafs are not getting what they should

trimming suxs.....if i could hire pro trimmers for a harvest i would

ok u do the cut ........when u are drying u want to remove as many of the fan leaves and stems as u can (round stems ) the flat ones are sugar leaves u can leave those or taken off ....i personally cut most of them off yah i know trim but when u cut 3/4 lb a month by yourself u really could care less about the little stuff

u need good scissors i like these
http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-HGPP400C-Precision-Curved-Pruner/dp/B005449D3W
the curved part makes it easier to get around the bud for a tight trim if u can not get to stems .......and it spring so they open up hands do not cramp out

my older brother got me this for x-mas .......i really like it i use it when i cut the plants down before it goes in the racks to dry and when i take it out of the rack before i jar them up
http://www.amazon.com/Harvest-More-TB-1-Trim-Bin/dp/B00884Z6F4
the little screen lets u collect some pixie dust for when your work is over ......and when u do trim down for the jars to make look pretty the left over is in a place u can transfer it out of into a jar

as for storage .....Glass is the best
mason jar Quart wide mouth will hold a OZ nicely

when u have them jarred up every 2 days for the first 3 weeks u have them open the jar up put lid on the side for 15 mins then cap it week 4/5 2 times a week week 6/7 1 time a week by week 8 u have cured the weed it is the best /strongest u can get it

after u jarred u want it in a cool place with as little direct light as possible

if the plant is not jarring material then u just remove the fan leaves from the branches let it dry then take blade strip off all the stuff from the branch into the grinder ...........mix up u have BHO or u can make butter

gloves do help if u make something sticky
