While we wait for @Carcass to post his harvest pics, I'm going to get a Monday update in on the Purple Ghost Candy from @SeedsMan!
Here it is on day 69:
And it's hard to see from that angle but the tallest two branches are actually the second lowest node, one of the two I pulled together to help them reach the top. You can see them better in the frontal pic:
This plant is about a week from flip, and I'm still pulling small branches that are trying to grow from the lower node branches:
I'm also still keeping the top nodes flat:
But I have let the top nodes keep their lower growth to help fill in the middle of the plant. And the inner growth on the top node had gotten so tall I decided to flatten those yesterday:
I hung binder clips from short pipe cleaners (reused StankClips) or opened paper clips to keep those four from being apical. You can see one of the binder clips down below the foliage on the top circle.
And speaking of foliage, you may have noticed that I didn't lollipop this plant. I decided to let it keep all its fans while I took all the branching since I tend to lose a lot of lowers in flower. I'm hoping that leaving the leaves will give me a bigger cushion as they start to get used up.
Pretty much a waiting game for the next week, and then it's time to send this baby into flower and see what kind of stretch I get compared to the rest of the PGC growers here. Speaking of whom, big thanks to Seedsman for letting me be a late entry into the comparative!
I hope you all had great weekends, and that your plans for July 4th are to either celebrate US independence, vote in the UK elections, or watch all the fireworks (literal and political) from wherever you are.
The rest of the news continues below...

They actually stock them over here so I could have had it for the same price faster but they don't sell the little dosing tool which I added. So with your discount I got a free tool with it 
Looking great Shed!
