That tent is looking awesome. That is going to be a big bunch of bud in a few months.
Thanks for this, JM. I started a reply when you posted this last night but got distracted and didn't come back to it.
The gist was that I'm really happy with where things are, and really excited to see what happens in flower, given that this is the best stuff I've grown yet. I went back through the photos from my previous grows to compare where they are at this point, and that's when I forgot to finish my reply. Here's what I found - I thought you guys might be interested to see where I was at this point in previous grows.
This was the first set I grew. I really didn't know what I was doing and did a comically poor job in retrospect with defoliation, relative to what I do these days. These got 50 days in veg. They stretched significantly in the next few days after this point. This is 4F.
Considering how good 24K Gold (left side) looked despite my many rookie mistakes, these shots really make me want to grow more.
This was the second set I grew and last that I flowered. These had 64 days in veg. I spent a lot of time manipulating the plants in weird ways to see how they would respond. I started to dabble with Ase's nutrient ideas in flower, saw results, and adopted them for my next set in veg, which was the culled set. This is 4F.
This was the culled set. These got 63 days in veg and were monsters going into flower. This was the veg that allowed me to test out everything I had learned and although I still made mistakes, the plants were ready to kill it in flower. This is them 2 days before flip.
And this is them at 3F.
Sigh, what could have been...
I'm growing 2 of the 4 plants again, and the new additions are great, especially Liberty Haze. Here's the 4F shot I posted yesterday for comparison to the others above. They aren't as tall as the last 2 grows, but the canopy is way better way earlier. And I did 2 weeks less of the veg time than the last couple of grows and still feel like they're absolutely ready.
