Hey,
@ilikemsticky she's got aways to go.. I just seen orange hairs popping on a lower bud... I get the feeling she's going to be colorful as fuck....... It's funny the first week/10 days, when lights go out the plant looks like she ain't had water in months. Wlited looking. But she gets over it. Hey I just seen, what 3 weeks ago a harvest on another site, of some Puppies he grew. Seems like a righteous grower and went to term, proper lighting feed. Even had lower temps and plants were bright ass green at harvest? Mine, even in the dead of summer,, has never harvested green..
But you know I bought a single seed once...... And she's still here. I got 3 cuts in the veg tent.
But I was messing around tieing up mainstems and tad of lolly popping. I do that alittle at a time. The more leaves you got on a plant, the better your plant grows. The reason why we stare at a seedling and she does nothing,,,, go to a teenager with some leafage,, she grows daily. Take a person who does massive, defoliation on a veg plant,, take some recovery time before it starts to grow again. I always think of Miss J, she never grew a plant before.. This is before we hooked up, she had a nice 3 foot bush in veg.. But it wasn't flowering.. One of her 'master' grower friends said you need to remove the leaves.. ODC as Miss J is,, well the plant died........
That's my take. I HATE taking fan leaves. They got the most square inches of area on the plant. Early in flower, I tuck them under to let light thru. But as flowering progresses,, a person has'''' to do some selective defoliation. I do as little as possible.. I stand above my plant and look straight down... And if you got a leaf that looks like it's drawing more power than transmitting,,,, kill the bastard. Unless it's one of the yellowish ones with purple undertones...... They can get pretty.... Babble
But while I got ya sticky,, It's a Female''
Bummer bout the lighting. I push my LED's up on one side of the room. And to see how lazy I am, I need to drag that last hood out from under the bed and throw my filler light in. I as a rule run 2 1500 watt HID light. BUT I do have another area and I time to time add another 1000 watt to the mix. Well the bulb is in the room,, and;;
has been sitting on that bar stool for 3 weeks.. AND the hood's still under the bed.. Happened on one of 'them long nights' not to trip, I have more than enough lumens in that room. But the LED's lend to the colors on that side.
On the other side of the moon... I got my Cripit.. The cuts I took look great. Bummer they came off a flowering plant. But here's the typical Cripit;
Easy to snap pic's in there... But you can't see shit. But I'm going to throw what I got up anyways..
Whelchie is dead in the center of LED land..
she did have some stretch issues.. Well not here,, but could be in a tent. First time grow, and you can never know how a plant will behave till you grow it.. I could've kept her shorter if I had planned but anyways,,, She still nice and manageable. Here's the main tops node spacing.
And I got another good looking plant in their from
@HydroRed Well I got two in there,, but only one's picture can out readable..
That's all folks....
