they should start showing soon. one thing i notice with the full spec leds is bud set taking a bit more time. i'm pretty sure it's due to the fact the rigs carry more blue than a dedicated flower rig does.

@bluter - I’ve observed this as well. I would say it’s light/spectrum/strain specific.

Strawberry Haze
Flower/Stretch Day 12
A Bit of Rearranging
I wanted her down a little. Brought it back down to 15.5” and ppfd in the 900-950 range. We’ll let the buds grow into the light.
Also did a reasonably aggressive defoliation, as it was badly needed. I tried to wait as long as I thought I could. Based on what I now see, I would think they’ll start to show budlets either tomorrow or Thursday.
Excellent job by the @ViparSpectra KS3000. I love the evenness of its coverage and the lack of heat with the detachable driver. Plant continues to seem to love the spectrum.
Had to remove her to redo the infrastructure. Here’s before defoliating and after, outside the tent:
The new infrastructure:
And back in, with a measurement picture:
Here’s up top after all the changes and defoliation:
And here’s what I did to level the screen:
There you go. Come on budlets!

Thanks @West Hippie, and for reminding me I owe you a visit! 32 ounces. Lol. But now that you mention it - my estimates right now are:
Strawberry Haze - 8 oz
PMC XXL Auto - 10 oz
Humboldt Dream - 10 oz
Mimosa - 10 oz
White Widow Auto - 12 oz
Banana Daddy Auto - 6 oz
So not 32. 56. 6 plants. Try to average 10oz each.

State of things post maintenance this morning. My sponsors are so good. I am rocking the @ViparSpectra KS3000 for my sun, and feeding the flawless @Prescription Blend nutes. They do all the work. All I am is their assistant. Heh. Thanks guys.

At that rate you must have your own dispensary 60 ounces, awesome. I just have a candy kush mother growing with a little squishing going on . I’m working on side by side grow with a mh/hps 1000 watt verses 660 watt led , one girl per light . I’d already be growing but I dropped 10 seeds and only one popped so now I’m working off mama candy kush. I believe they crushed my seeds coming in the country.Thanks @West Hippie, and for reminding me I owe you a visit! 32 ounces. Lol. But now that you mention it - my estimates right now are:

Strawberry Haze
Flower/Stretch Day 14
If this plant wasn’t screened it would have overgrown the tent by now. What a stretcher! Two weeks solid into this thing and I finally have pistils popping. Budlets can’t be far behind. This is the longest I’ve ever had a plant go since the flip before seeing budlets.
Here she is today post maintenance. And barely under control. More lower staking going on as several of the colas that have reached outside the screen want to outpace the canopy. All the little sticks are attached to outside colas/branches.

My SIP got angry at me for removing all the shoots below the net and stopped new growth for a few days. During that time she beefed up her existing limbs like crazy! She's starting to move again. Is yours pissy at you for something?

Hey @StoneOtter - not sure what you mean? She’s been stretching and growing non stop. No slow down. I also have not yet removed all the below screen growth, so maybe then I’ll get a slowdown for a day. But so far she’s behaving exactly as she should be. If I showed the wake up pictures each day you’d see how much work it’s taken to keep her in check. ??
This reminded of my situation. Ok, good for yours then!

Ah! Yeah, I wondered if the time it was taking represented slow down. But each wake up call tells me no, lol.

So…is this perhaps the budlets I’ve been waiting on?
Morning @Jon
Your Strawberry Haze looks fantastic; but it looks like she is paying you no mind. Finicky one.
If she is still stretching on you, just remove some fan leaves and that will slow her down; also the stress may take her to the next step.
Just a thought.
Stay safe, and grow well my friend,
Tok..
