Fluxing NL x BB

Ok we need to even the canopy out some before flipping! Start working the over dominant ends down and even the rest out with tethers. Then let her go a week after sorted and then flip and you will benefit no end I promise. Just even canopy is your target now! :)

I'll get my wire out tomorrow then. I won't flip until I get the go-ahead from you. Thanks for replying.

They're looking great mate but like LA says get those dominant ends pulled down :)

How's that. They all bent easily with no signs of snapping. The 2 highest points you see on each girl are the growing tips.

Awesome job buddy, you're all set for 6" vertical now. You know the drill, open the tips & control the secondaries :)

6" vertical seems really familiar but I can't quite get a grip on it:cheesygrinsmiley: Maybe I'm just going off my mind lol.

Shall I just let them be now or should I continue to pin down runaways and keep the tips dominant?
 
Now is the time to treat each arm as an individual plant & I think you have to keep them all level now. I'll let LA correct me if I'm wrong. So you need to keep the tips open & pinch all the secondary growth to slow it down. You can defoliate & pinch any arms that start racing away or pull them down by the tethers, just do what works for each arm. If you get 6" vertical & then flip it'll be strain dependant on the stretch but it should give you good 12-18" colas on each arm. I hope that helps :)

Thanks skunnymonster that's clear enough.

I'm still trying to decide whether to go for the 'Diminshing Light Schedule' or just a straight up 11/13.

Me too Paddy. I wish we could turn the clock forward onto them 12"-18"(hopefully) colas skunnymonster mentioned. They have got both my LEDS and are loving it. That's why they stretched like they did when I took my eyes off them for a couple of days.
 
How many limbs on average have your fluxes got? As skunny says with 6 inch of active vertical growth going before flip and you should have 12"+ colas.
We keep all on the level for all of stretch period. Then during budding we raise each end just a fraction over the others! :)
I think your going to do really well of these girls as you put the hard yards in :)
 
I would think with good vert before flipping and good stretch you should be well up over the ten mark and more likely closer to 15 :)
This is just my rough ass guess lol as don't know your strains! :)
 
This is the strain info:

World of Seeds Bank - Northen Light x Bigbud
Northen lights winner of the 88 89 and 1990 cannabis cup; crossed with BIG BUD (one of the most commercial plants in the 80´s and 90´s because of its production) makes it ideal for indoors because of their resin covered buds. Of great medical value and ideal against anxiety because of their equally percentage of cannabinoids and ideal for growers with little space because of its great production. Its high value in CBD gives you the sensation of a middle high. Could be used for any therapeutic use.

Hight: 100-120 cm
Wight: Middle
Growing phase: 3 to 4 weeks
Flowering phase: 55 - 60 days indoors / end of September outdoors
Production: 400-500 gr/m2 indoors / 900-1000 gr/plant outdoors

Resistance to mildew: High
Resistance to plagues: High.
Irrigation tolerance: Middle

Medical value: High
Smell: Strong
Taste: Frutity
Effect: Narcotic medical
THC Level: < 18%

90% Indica

The above info was taken from the seedfinder database.
 
Your figure of 15ozs is ball park it seems as that equates to 420gr. Although 400-500gr per sq m is different to 1 fluxed plant in a 30 litre pot. I could get at least 4 plants in that space so this will show the value of Fluxing should I be able to get what you say because 4 x 420gr is a hell of a lot more that 400-550gr per sq m. I would top out @ over 1600gr per m.

Let the challenge begin.
