My auto got topped! What am I supposed to do now? Please advise.

  1. Hello everyone. I'm growing autoflowers under 2x36W T8 flourescent tubes. I don't know the exact strain because my auto seeds got mixed up. Yesterday I first introduced bottled fertilizer with my watering. Overnight one plant exploded in size and grew into the light fixture. The top of the plant got fried by the tubes (which surprises me with flourescents). So now I can conclude that the plant is effectively topped at around 1 foot (30 cm) tall.
    I read that it is not recommended to top autos because it is stressfull, and because of their form, the main cola is the real deal. So now I'm wondering what percentage of the harvest will I lose out of what I could have gotten? And how should I make the best out of this plant from now on?
     
  2. Just leave it be. Nothing you can do now. No one could ever guess exactly just how much it will effect the overall yield. Is what it is.
