Holy S....
This is genious of you. I'm amazed. They look so healthy and well trained.
Gotta love that rainbow you got there with so many different genetics. I envy you, sir.
Overall how many times have you topped that BD? You seem to have a lot of tops.

Thanks for the kind words GB.
Your's will be looking enviable soon enough, it will be nice to see them flower. This BD I topped just once. One snip above node 4, leaving 8 branches. I pruned off 2 of those 8 as they were small, leaving just 6. The other tops in the pic are lateral branches from those 6 that grew up to canopy level. Usually I top above node 3, and pull the lowest 2, to work from just 4 branches.
Should have an update on the girls tomorrow, they are looking great and getting fat!

Thank you for yours answer Carestaker! You're very kind.
Mind me asking what bloom nutes and boosters are you using? I read that sugars really fatten up the buds. But I've never reached a flowering phase, so I cannot know that much.
Enlighten me, will ya?

Anytime BG
I'm in FFOF with amendments, using Sensi Bloom, about 10ml/gal peak feed, feed every watering right now. I add BigBud and then Overdrive as my primary PK boost, and add in a little CoolBloom near the end sometimes. I'll feed 5ml gal Molasses/Budcandy with all feeds after week three flower. That's my sugar supplement. Adding sugar is the quickest way to energize the plant, which she'll need when when she's doubling in mass so quickly, as she is in hard flower. Sugar can convert very easily and quickly to ATP which is what the plant uses for energy, just like us. Feeding her starches is a great way to keep her powered, but IMO it's like a cheap meal, you gotta have good nutrition too. Anyway, I'm testing out some Chrystal WWxNL 
and I'm probably babbling...so here we go to the update. Peace, Groovy - Thread starter

UPDATE
Aside from yet another LED failure, things are going really well, knock on wood. I only have 50w of LED left operating in the tent with the 600w. If I can keep the RH down (hard on the coast) I'll be smiling at the end of this run. I'll take a break and strip it all down for cleaning etc. I hope the next run will be with a new light. I may be building it, or reaching out to some sponsors, I'm not sure. I'm playing coco too. Here's my second coco plant, she's been abused and still looking nice.
CocoTest1
She'll be culled tomorrow. She is just a test plant in a 16oz cup. Liking the coco in veg, but only have one flower experience with it. Thinking I'll be doing a run in coco soon.

She's getting fat, and starting to purp up a bit....
BD-Small Photo 4/28 Flower 5/5 43 days
Chunkier than her sis, with fewer tops, on the swell..
ASD-Small Photo 4/28 Flower 5/5 43 days
Chem/Diesel smell is coming on strong, she's getting fat too.
PTW Photo 4/30 Flower 5/15 33 days
She's so fat for just a month in. Total fat farm in here.
Going to re-Veg this girl when done and take cuttings. I'll see how she likes to clone, she may be a keeper for a friend. I don't know why I don't have more photos...
BD-Big Photo 4/18 Flower 4/26 53 days
She's you know, and fading a bit, and I'm going flush her at next water, with FloraKleen
ASD-Big Photo 4/25 Flower 5/2 46 days
Really starting to frost up, and she smells strong like diesel and limes, but it's earther and fuller with the higher temps. Has a wood component to it as well. I think this one comes out better in warmer temps, doesn't like to be cold.
Peace and love

Hazy days to you too my friend Nice CS! You can really see the colors of the buds on these photos.
I'm trying! I'm thinking the white background helps white-balance the cheap cell phone sensor. I'm smoking the harvest that went real dry, WWxNL and it's super smooth, and creepy strong.

Good to hear TBM, and good to see ya! She's a fun vigorous plant, with a med-high metabolism, you'll love her. She's easy, but likes to be fed lots of Ca/Mg and N. That's a cut of her in the 16oz cup growing like crazy.

Lemme know when your in town, I'll treat ya right
Thanks BAR, some nice genetics in there to be sure. If you're still on the daytime purple hunt, a nice GDP cross fits the bill, if hybridized with a good amount of sativa to bring some energy to the smoke.
No BS Carestaker, that last update ranks amongst the top 2 or 3 I've ever seen on 420mag & you know I never announce my reps but reps to post #832!

Thanks BAR, that's about as fine a compliment as I've ever heard.
I've been having some good luck with these clones my man
