Auto topping thread,pushing the auto limits;)

Good day growers im a master photo and auto grower.but my passion is with autoflower seeds.i been on a mission for 5 years growing now trying diffrent methods of training on autos to see what they truly behold.truth is autos aint no diffrent to a normal plant other than they flower on there own.u can top lst supercrop and defol autos with monster results if done at the correct time.oviously every plant is diffrent so always use the seed info as a rough guide;) and a short plant can yield just as much as a tall plant;) in this thread i will show u all along the way of the true limits of autos and there true potential as i grow them for u all to see;).also if ur an auto grower who likes to push the limits,do speak up and all pics of ur autos and talk and all questions welcome on pushing the auto limits.here a few examples of the results achived topping an auto young followed by later lst.few heavy defols along the way ,gives u an army of dominant colas and a big heavy yield.and a beautiful plant.here is automazar topped and lstd;)

@autobeast, here’s a couple in 5 gallon soil bags that you helped me top at day 20 but they haven’t really gotten as big as I would have hoped. These pix are from today, day 37. They’ve never shown and sort of stress of deficiencies and look healthy but just haven’t really gotten very big; and growth has slowed or stopped (it seems) since they started flowering. Especially the Auto Ultimate, which I had high hopes for

DP Auto Ultimate - longest branches are about 12” long.

Here they are side by side. Ignore the remnants of the plant in the middle.

Is it possible they’ll continue to stretch or are they going to just put on flower from here on out? Both are supposed to be known for getting big and I can’t think of what I may have done/not done to not have them grow bigger.

Here are a couple CBD strains that are at 21 days, in 5 gallons of soil (each) and they’re exactly true same size as the 2 plants above were at day 21. I topped 1 yesterday and am letting the other go, just to see if the topping is what’s causing the smaller size for me. Then I’d know I’m doing something wrong with the topping somehow. I KNOW it’s me and not the methodology. Just trying to figure out how to get close to your results.

Hey buddy, my suggestion, if I may. Get a journal going and give as many details you can, as often as you can. I would bet, beast would sub up to it, as well as a few other top notch growers. I would personally like to see that 21 day plant grow to it's full potential. As for the others, I'm afraid they won't grow much more than that.

I’ve got one going. Just been kinda busy lately and haven’t had time to update. I’ll go update and tag him if I haven’t already. Thanks Yeaster! Great idea.
 
Beast, I haven't gotten noticed for this. Glad I decided to look you up, and all is good. Nice harvest there, my friend!

We were pretty close to harvesting similar strains. Here's my topped Purple Stilton from Autoseeds.

Does anyone know what the issue is here? Plants are day 59 buds coming on nicely. Leaves started turning funny orange red colour last few days?
