To answer your question about trimming them. Yes you're overdue. Biggest mistake besides having too many plant in the tent was not trimming them up enough. Before you flip them you will want to strip the bottom 1/3 so getting a good branching structure will go a long way toward yield. I wouldnt worry about super cropping yet but definitly look into lst and try to spread those tops out.
Finally! Day 36 of growth! Need some advice please guys!

Absolutely I totally agree. Do some research on lollipopping. Basically what you do is trim off the bottom of the plant to give it the look of a lollipop. All of the underlying been smaller branches will not amount to much anyways let the plant re-focus that energy to the tops also think about like getting to the bottom of the plant you really want to spread those things out so the light can penetrate everything.

Hey buddy
thanks for the advice man ! Really appreciate it ! So I am growing 7 autos! I am getting mixed feed back , some people are saying not to trim because it's auto and could stunt growth or damage the plants ? And then I am getting people telling me to trim it ?
Also I have them on a 20 - 4 hour life cycle and they said because it autos I must keep it that cycle it's whole life ?
Yup... even when I let my girls grow natural, the low branches generally end up in edibles because they are dry/fluffy.
Smoke the tops, eat the bottoms. LoL
I've had 3 autos that stunted from trimming. That was enough for me... I only grow a couple at a time so a dud really annoys me. I've just had good luck with minimal trimming and topping with my autos. Freaks me out after having a plant like this...Hey buddy

I agree with that to some extent. Definitely only remove anything that's blocking bud sites. Really man because they are autos first I would use some sort of lst to spread them out some. All plants need their leaves for photosynthesis so I would try and spread em out. A scrog net would be great.
Hey buddy
I totally missed those were autos i thought they were photos.

Yeah so did I. Like Preston said very minimal but lst could only help.

Omg!Good news! Both have had grows that claim 400g off of 3-4 plants.
Side note, don't expect that kind of yield.
They may have exaggerated, or had the most optimal conditions.
WHA was noted as 50/50 sativa/indica so it may not grow as tall. Also as a medium yield.
WDH is 70/30 sativa/indica so expect it to be a bit bigger and bushier. Also as a large
How high can you raise your lights?
Have you researched low stress training, topping, or supercropping?
I apologize if that question is redundant or insulting.
I can't tell by the pics if you have topped/fimmed though, the new growth seems to have squared ends.
I have some bud porn for you. I had a freebie that turned out nice. Sensi Skunk #1 auto
I remember having 4 jars of it, it wasn't super dense though. So maybe a 1/4lb. My dad loved it.

Re: Days 38 of growth !! What you guys think ?
Really suggest ya keep a journal going, so much easier to see how things are looking
Then you post and we see how it's going
When you start a new thread its like starting over, more random for who sees it
Looking good so far
