Hiya
@NickHardy - hope your grow is going as you wish. You sure tweak like a madman, lol. Me, I just grow. I just do a whole bunch of simple, basic, growing shit. No magic whatsoever. Just the basics. I’m just half decent at the basics. And yeah, I don’t necessarily disagree on your LST vs not as it relates to yield. Personally I find that to be quite strain specific. You’ve seen I’ll train differently depending on the strain and what the plant does initially. One of the advantages of training as I do, where I basically do nothing until the fifth node is up, is obviously larger plants. But to this point, doing it that way allows you to read the plant at that point, and then decide what you think is best for that plant. The answer imo is not always a flat canopy.
However, for this grow, flat was the way to go. Here’s how I’m looking as the plants as a group are all not even at budlets yet! Amazing set of genetics I got this time. That’s where I tend to get lucky - genetics.
Remo girls are all on week 2 of flower, although my flower never changes with Remo. I’ve learned they prefer it if you never go to the 10 ml and stay at 8 the whole time. I no longer burn a plant with Remo for that reason.
The two Cyco girls are both insane and on week 2 of Cyco flower by the book, all advanced feed chart at this point. Cyco is amazing. These two are way bigger than the rest except maybe the beastly Trizkit. No blemishes. No curl. No burn. Amazing rate of growth. Huge perfectly green plants. What’s not to love?
Organics are rocking, and I don’t see any difference between the California Super Soil plants and the Jon Soil Mix plants. We’ll see what they do in flower, but all look super solid.
I put the second AC unit on and now am running both ACs with half ambient doorage. This keeps my rh in this super dense canopy at a mere 48%. With all my moving air, (4 oscillators on the corner from above, four more below the canopy in the corners, plus on big boy oscillator outside the tent blowing on the whole), I can easily live at that number. After I defol a bit in a week or so, the rh will come down a few more points. They’ll be fine. I even remembered to spread out the Cherry Pie so her colas are not all smashed together. All good in the jungle.
dawn till dusk they won't stop.. I was at 1500ppfd then 1300pfd and now under 1000ppfd.
