Let's stop with the auto flower myths. They transplant fine. They top fine. They HST and LST fine.
I think your correct. Personally I haven't done much besides lst but I do know that the plants I just recently knuckled to the point where I thought I'd kill the branch is doing stellar. Accidental damage in a cluttered room

yes its just the marijuana plant has its date dialed in for how long it will last so manipulating it with growing gestures will be benificial for overall output of kush

then u are a fool
transplanting is not fine .........as it is a auto plant the roots grow at a faster rate then Photos

if u transplant it from a 3 gallon to a 7 gallon for flowering u are not tapping into all that soil u gave it for flowering u are only using maybe 4 to 5 gallons by the time u cut it

to get the best out of it u need to plant it in the final planter allowing the roots to shoot and grow into all the soil u are offering it

i grown auto plants now going on to 5 years i done almost every experiment i can think of to them .......transplanting makes the plants under yeild compared to planting it directilly into the final planter
(run your own experiment u will see)

Just because someone has had different results doesn't make them a fool. I can vouch for his experience level. Personally I don't transplant but I also would t expect a dramatic decrease in yield.

the fool part was to impress the grativy of the wrongness

for the last 5 years this has been my work ......making auto flowers produce better then photos with thc counts to be equal or better (terepene count is impossible to match)

he called it a myth.......it is not it is good advice
when u let the plant grow into a 3 gallon container it hits the walls and then starts to tendril out ......taken that plant and moving it to a 7 gallon planter during the 45 days of flowering the roots do not make the tap roots they just tendril out ........leaving a good deal of the lowest soil and the highest amount of water untapped .......really try it one time and be ready to waste 2 planter .....when it is done u gut and dry harvest look at what u made look at the stalk then slice the planter in half and look at how the roots formed


i done growth experiments with and without rooting hormones .......i messed with planters too (soil bags vs old style planter)

when i started this i heard ppl talking shit about auto plants .....got alot of bad advice from ppl doing the photo tricks it took me 2 years (every 2 weeks 3 new plant) of experiments to learn who is telling the truth about autos ......hell i spent 700 bucks to get a my dx tester to get thc results on soil and feed plans

transplanting is a mistake with autos ......it does not work like it does with photos ......autos have a set time table u can extend it with feed on point but the genetics of the plant are much faster then any photo ........autos are 100% feed based plants photos are light and feed based

I don't know what this guy's talking about. But I start seeds for 2 weeks in coots soil in 4" rootmaker propagation pots. Then transplant to 3 gallon fabric pots. They finish in those pots. 4 a week like clockwork here. No issues from transplanting, and roots end up like this by the time they're flowering.

That's a photoperiod at the bottom right getting topped and tied up repeatedly.


And some of my soil I forgot to lime, so the Ph is way off.
