Yea i was under the same impression - sounds like he's mastered a technique many would fail at.

Thanks for your input - I love this on-line community, everyone's so helpful!

Hey Jon.. when you top early in flower do you do it in the 1st week or just progressively to 3rd?

Also you said you vegged for 3months.. is that because of the amount of training you do.. or because you end up with a higher yield?

Never vegged that long before.. but im thinking if the yield is better than 2 grows vegged at 4-6, i might try that with the skywalker next grow. ;) LOVE that AK plant.. never had sensi bro any good?

I like to wait until the second week of flower to top,this way the lower branching has had a chance to stretch and gives you a better idea of where to top it.3 months veg is definetly due to this style of training it takes alot longer but now that I know that I will just start the next round a month earlier than usual.you will definetly get a better yield with this style of training,if you have a veg room/tent I think its worth the extra time and hydro:)

I know I'm not Jon, hope he doesn't mind,

I read not to top in flower as you are just losing harvest, need a bit of veg after topping

you can post anything you want here bro:)I have topped the second week of flower before, all that happens is you get 2 or 3 smaller nugs that weight the same as 1 bigger one.the plant just redirects the energy to the new tops.I find its an effective way to control the canopy as long as you dont do it to late.I learned the tecnique from the guy from budbook.org justin something.

morning everyone:) my hot water tank died a couple of days ago so I had my plumber buddy install a new one.He failed to mention that he tripped a couple breakers looking for the hotwater tank breaker that was clearly labelled btw lol....word of advice,never give your plumber a couple bong rips of budder before he works! so he tripped the a/c breaker and I didnt notice it was off last night.I went in this morning and the room was sitting at 103.7 degrees!wierd thing was they all looked just fine,no sagging or wilting leaves at all.so even with led's the room will get freakin hot!I plan on picking up a couple of water cooled dehumidifiers sometime this winter,because the normal ones put out alot of heat.

Mornin everyone,Ive started the final defoliation before flower.The plants have so many branches that its going to take a couple days to do it all.once im done I ll give them a day to recover and then flip the lights.Im hoping this will give the 2 smallest hgk time to fill the screen a bit.res ppm's are 1450 ph 5.5-6.0 co2 ppm's 1000-1250.heres some pics, hope you like:)

Jon if you don't mind, can you describe with few words , your system ? lol
It's RDWC ok, but I see you don't use airstones ? You only use the waterfall effect , with two drippers per bucket ?
M I missing something ?

Hey Billy,im horrible with all the abreviations for systems lol...so I have no idea what that means.my system is a 10 bucket resirculating system.There is a 30 gallon res in a seperate room with 3 large airstones in it.the pump is currently running 24/7 so the water does not sit it is constantly running through 2 spikes per bucket that drains back into the res.its winter hear so the res is 65 degrees.next round im adding a 3rd string of 5 buckets to the system so there will be a second smaller pump in the res.

Hmm ! This way you don't need a seperate airstone in each bucket ! Excellent setup , it proves that an airstone (bucket) sometimes is not nessesary if you got good flow and a bit cold climate !

Be good Jon , looking 4ward for flipping your lights, I need some bud porn !! lol
And yeah , it's a definitaly good idea to add a third row , you got so much space there bro, plus you will need less veg time ...
Need more water/nutes of course, but for sure is worth...
