My Perpetual Foursome

Amnesia haze decided to bless me with 3 main stems.

Thanks. They're finally really vegging.

They have long stems. I'm really tempted to completely bend them over.

Edit: too late. But next grow I may try to not even cut and bend. I've always thought that was the best way. To avoid cutting.

Your plants look very healthy :yummy:

So this is what I'm doing instead of a trellis. I can basically keep building the scaffold up as i need it. I welded 4 planters for the base. I have enough materials so build 3 levels on all 4 plants i think i did the math right.

Should be able to use plant ties to get creative. Maybe string some across kind of like a trellis.

Won't be ready for a while plants still need to do a lot of growing. Just making plans.

Looking good, @Havocsm1! I notice that you already have sticks in place in your pots. Is this a common practice among growers? Do I risk damaging my roots if I wait until late in the grow to insert plant sticks?

Nah they have pointy ends just place them gently. I even have mine placed between the pot and soil so it's minimally invasive. I'll pull them out when I transplant to 7gal. Then as you see in the pics they won't go in the soil.

I can detatch them pretty easily. Plus they come with ties and stuff. I'll use plant ties to tie the branches to the sticks. Pretty much playing it as i go. By the time they're flowering and in the 7gal they'll be more permanent.

Thanks, @Havocsm1. I use bamboo sticks with blunt, not pointy, edges. Could that make a difference?

Not 100% sure but I doubt it would hurt much. Maybe try and sharpen the end as much as you can. I know bamboo is hollow so it may be hard to sharpen to a point.

If that's all I had I'd try and put them in earlier than later. Maybe someone here has used bamboo and can offer better advice.

I know when I transplant i usually tear some roots and it doesn't slow them down much if at all so you'll probably be ok.

This is how I train. Basically keep the first 4 branches of the plant tied horizontal for as long as I can until it's time to uppot. (Or in amnesia haze case 5 main branches) So they grow horizontal and the idea is to get a ton off shoots growing vertical off of them. Going to top when the branches reach the rim of the pot. Then let it recover and uppot shortly thereafter.

Have a great day

They're growing quick. I love this part

Going to harvest probably today got a wedding rehearsal and shit so I may not we'll see trichomes later.

Can someone explain how to put captions on my pics? @MrSauga kind of explained it but I still can't find it. Stupid technology. Do I upload into member galleries or what?????

Correct! Upload to the Member's Gallery. Before you save the images fill in the title, description, and tags. Really the title is all that is needed.

That should do it.

So I think I'm gonna wait one more week to harvest. I took a bunch of shots only to find out I have no disk space. Those shots were hard to get I have junior arthritis and can't hold the camera scope well. Anyway just from what I saw my gut says another week. Littles are blowing up. Once I upload photos to members section how do I get it on a post?
