Re: DWC Master Kush and White Widow LST & Scrog--Round 2

defoliation of fan leaves is silly (unless you have a mold issue), but removal of flower sights is smart because the energy will be moved elsewhere.

you gonna top the colas that are growing into the light? if you do the bottom ones will come up and take over :high-five:
 
Re: DWC Master Kush and White Widow LST & Scrog--Round 2

I have often broken the main tops off by accident while scrogging up to three weeks into flowering with no loss of yield, so I'd say take them out now while it will still do good to the rest of the plant. It'll make for a more even canopy and cast less shadow to the lower buds. They are growing SO FAST, very jealous of your setup:).

Hi guys, yes I'm gonna top the Widow and even out the canopy. I'm not going to defol the White Widow at all really, just the really small stuff that doesn't have a chance at being anything good. The Widow is getting good light cause its not crowded in its closet.
The Kush Closet on the other hand, is gonna see some thinning out, everything below the screen is gonna be gone, and all the unhealthy, and damaged fan leaves are history. Not gonna take to much b.real, just enough to get some of the side lighting to the plants and some air flow through/around the plants.
Another lesson learned... 1 or 2 plants trained properly is plenty in a closet this size, 3 plants is to much.
Talk to you all tomorrow.

oh yeah, def trim under the screen, but make sure youre removing flower sights.

this is gonna be great :) :) :)

Looking really good stealth. Sorry about the height issues, it's a right pain in the neck when they grow into the lights!
The left hand cupboard looks a bit higher than the one on the right so it looks like you might be losing a foot or so which makes things a bit more difficult. There are a good number of plant sites in the dwc - possibly the most unhelpful advice in the world for this grow I'm sorry, but for future grows have you thought about trying a sea of green and flowering more plants at a smaller size in the left-hand cupboard? It may help with the height issues and it would be really interesting to see the comparison between sog and scrog in the same conditions,
Good work mate, looking really nice!

Hi everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend.
Today is day 21 since flip to 12/12 so I went to change reservoirs and feed my girls, they are looking good. The Widow grew into the light again, so time for a trim, and the kush's still haven't stopped stretching yet, they are only a few inches from the light in the taller closet. The Kush's are so much bigger this grow, feeding the right amount of nutes or at least not overfeeding seems to have really pushed their growth.

The Defoliation in the White Widow closet went without a hitch, I hardly took anything off at all, only cleaned up under the screen and removed and leaves and small bud sites that weren't getting any direct light. I did prune the two tallest branches that had grown into the lights, and did a lot of bending an supercropping of the other tall branches. I also managed to move my light up another 2 or 3 inches, so hopefully this will be enough room for the rest of the grow.

Today's Stats White Widow Closet
PPM= 730
PH= 5.7
Air temp= 75F
Water temp= 70F
RH= 56%

The Widow has grown into the light again.

The Defoliation on in the Kush closet also went well, but I'm afraid I took a little too much off the bottom. It was just so think and there were lots of small branches that started below the screen but only grew about a foot above the screen, and were still completely buried by the rest of the plant, and getting no light. By the time I cleaned everything up and stood back for a look they were a little more bare than I anticipated. The canopy is still super lush, with tons of tops, and looking from the top down you can't see through the canopy to the reservoir, so still thick, but a little bare at the bottom. I'm sure they will be fine though. I put up the second screen to help with separation and support of the plants but still no bud development on the Kush's, especially when compared to the widow, hopefully the defol will stop the stretch so they can start working on buds now.


Today's Stats Master Kush Closet
PPM= 770
PH= 5.8
Air temp= 78F
Water temp= 70F
RH= 54%

The view when I opened the Kush closet, one of the branches is actually touching the light in this closet now.

As soon as I open the doors to the closet the plants are almost falling out, Its like undoing your belt after a big meal. :)

That's pretty much it for another update, questions and comment are always welcome. I hope you all have a great week, and stay medicated my friends. ;)

Looking very nice stealth!

That clear out at the bottom will be fine, looks good and will help with air flow etc. Sorry about the height issues, it's so frustrating when they keep growing up and you want them to stop!
 
Re: DWC Master Kush and White Widow LST & Scrog--Round 2

Hi Stealth

Don't know if this is helpfull or not, but i saw this video here on 420 the other day, and it looks interesting (also looks kinda brutal imo).

Is this anything you or anyone else here would do? The guy on the video seems to know his stuff.

Thanks Gknight, yeah, I really hope the defol stopped the stretch, I pruned a couple of tops and will do it again if required. I just hate having to do it, I'd rather just bend them but they just right themselves and grow right back into the light again.
In the new year depending on how good Santa is to me I might be getting my new 5x9 LED grow tent. That will resolve all my height issues. ;)

Hi Coffee, I've seen a lot of Jason Wilcox's video's, he definitely knows his stuff and is an outspoken supporter of legalization in Canada. Respect to him. I'm gonna do pretty much what he is doing in the video, just prune the tops if they get to high, this will also help stop the growth. The stretch should be done real soon...I hope.
Thanks for stopping in.

Re: DWC Master Kush and White Widow LST & Scrog--Round 2

NICE job on the defol and the tops Stealthgrow!
And :ciao: to you too!

Thanks Canna. I'm going to go check out my girls tonight, top up the water lvls and feed if necessary. I'll take a couple of pics and post a mini update tonight. ;)

Re: DWC Master Kush and White Widow LST & Scrog--Round 2

Hi Chronic. :ciao:

Quick update for everyone. ;)

I went for a quick check on the girls tonight, day 23 since flip, things are fine. topped up water lvls and gave a small feeding of bloom and boost nutes along with a dose of Magi-Cal to bring up the PPM to around 800. The plants didn't really grow since I was there last Sunday, so hopefully the stretch is done now.

The Widow is looking awesome, buds everywhere, I'm actually kinda surprised how fast she put out flowers after the flip. With about 5-6 weeks still in her cycle I think I'm gonna get some nice buds out of her this round.

The Kush's are doing well also, pistils everywhere, and the start of the bud sites, but no real flowers yet unfortunately. The Master Kush's are gonna have to go to 70 days again this round for sure.

Tonight's Stats, Day 23 since flip.
