Nice job on the tutorial Van. Got that girl looking proper.
Damn you have turned into a machine while I was gone. Plants look great.
I read all those choices and I think...Which one of these has the effects I’d like to experience in Cob form? Lol. For me it would be the SSH (plus I’d just like to see you grow that one out....Beast!) and Ayahuasca Purple based on Shaman’s report on the cob.

I have harvested them from day 49 12/12 to day 65. Imho the best product was about 56 days, it had the best terps and the earlier stuff can make you a little racey if your not careful.
That scrog was just shy of 2 lbs and they spent 4 days in total darkness during week 6 due to power outages so i think you could do better.

Takes a cpl pics to fit them. The scrog was 6.5'×4.5' and got over run quick. Thats 2 plants one of each pheno. 1st pic was the only purple/grapefruit pheno out of 5 seeds and the highest yielder. The rest (including the one in the 2nd pic) were all pineapple.

Beautiful... Maybe I missed it, but what strain is this?

Never mind I saw in the pic it is a C99 scrog.

Gorgeous plant brother!! Looking very forward to growing out that C99.
Just dropped the Amherst Sour Diesel bean into water a few minutes ago. I decided to take a look at the seeds I was considering and the ASD bean I spotted was screaming my name. Next strain will likely be The Trilogy from Exotic Genetic and will be run by Ms Stank but that will likely be a month out as we continue to clear some room.

SSH will likely be my next drop Duggan.....after Ms Stank's turn. But it could be a toss up between that and C99.SSH......
How long did your SSH go when you ran it Duggs?

@SofaKing Dope stellar scrog! just curious, which breeder did you get the c99 from?
Glad to be back. Trying to get the next runs seeds germinating. Trying a different method and not liking it at the moment. The veg tent is up and running just waiting. I will start a journal when I have them up and going.
Man miss a couple of days and there are some serious pages to catch up on! So though I have not run anything but Slurricane on your lists I would have voted for ASD. Neiko seems to love it and I am a huge fan of sour d. I got some Blackberry from a friend back when I was a heavy smoker and it was one seriously intense buzz! I had been smoking some williams wonder and while it was alright it was not great. I would smoke multiple joints in a sitting of the wonder. Well I rolled up a joint of blackberry and smoked it with one other person and was flying! I had to get to a meeting at work before my shift started and had a 45 minute drive. I got to work waaayyyyy higher than I had ever intended to be. It was gorgeous bud that was pink and purple. I cannot recall the scent or taste but can tell you it was one of the best highs I ever came across. I do not know who bred it or anything so it may be different than what you have a seed of but I would be interested in seeing it grown out. The Slurricane is a winner. It may be fairly similar to your BCP and if you want variety then waiting to grow it is a decent choice.
Someone mentioned Black Widow and they were right. The original breeder of White Widow parted ways with the company he had been working with and took the original lines with him to keep breeding it. He renamed his Black widow to stand apart from all of the copies.
Supposedly there are issues with Brother Grimm's new gear. They are the original breeders of the C99. They took a hiatus for a while and after coming back I guess their gear is not quite what it once was. I guess a lot of their strains are not all that stable and have lots of issues with hermies. I cannot verify this from personal accounts but I have seen enough complaints to put some merit to the claims.

That is a craft you have definitely mastered, you make it look easy. On the pervious topic I use to buy Club papers by the roll, ( like a roll of paper towels or TP ) not sure how long the roll was but you could get pretty creative just pull out what ever size you wanted and tear (no glue). My avatar is actually a picture of a cloth wall hanging from the 70's that hung in my van behind the front seats to keep the heat up front. You my recognize it as Clubs logo, I was told they are no longer in business. Anyway I think I will try the Raw 1 1/4, nothing like a fatty.African Meltdown Veg Day 64
Today's update is going to take a better look at some of the LST that I do with my pipe cleaners to help shape the plant the way that I want. Now before I get too far into this particular example, I want to stress that LST needs to be specific to the individual plant. Every strain is different and they grow different. You might have something in mind but if that plants structure or makeup doesn't want any part of that, good luck!
I have found by letting it grow 7, 8, even 9 nodes tall, I get a really good idea as to what the plant wants to grow like and what shape I might want to make her. Factors to look at are node spacing, side branching vigor, branch strength are just a couple. So I let this girl grow and she showed fairly pronounced node spacing and sparse side branching. I used the pipe cleaners as restraints to curve side branching the directions I wanted and when she got to the height I wanted, I topped her and started shaping the canopy. Here are a few shots of what she is currently looking like and then I will show one example of LST.
I topped her at the 9th Node, later than usual and I still have all 9 nodes growing. I kept the bottom two sets of nodes for potential clone sites. The 3rd set may or may not make it up to the top of canopy and if the growth isn't sufficient come flip time, I will chop it. The rest of the nodes will likely all make the cut. I started training the lower nodes to come out wider and then up. This is what all the pipe cleaners look like.
What did I do specifically to create this? Easy peasy! I hook one end of the pipe cleaner around a sturdy portion of the branch I want to train. I hook the bottom end to the lip of my pot. If I was in the final smart pot, I would use big gator clips to tie the pipe cleaner to instead. You can see in this next picture where I used the green pipe cleaner to start getting the branch to go more out to the side, or wider. I then repeated with a branch above using the orange pipe cleaner by attaching it to the branch below it. These three pics show how I did that. Gotta use what ya got!
On this next picture you can see where I start to use existing pipe cleaners to tie off additional shoots as they develop
Now what did I do with the top? I told you after topping, I started spreading out horizontal with the intention of letting the lower nodes all catch up (I knew I was going to veg her for a while). I knew I was going spread it wider over time so I made my pipe cleaner longer than I needed initially. Its attached all the way to the bottom of the pot. You can see how I attach it to the top and just slide it as needed when the tops grow. Sometimes I have to unclip and move it around side shoots but its very low maintenance and easy to use.
Now as the side shooting comes out off the top node....I spread it out flat as I described above and it will create that nice even flat canopy. I will keep spreading everything out wider until I am ready to flip while allowing very minimal vertical growth.
She got a drink of rain water and a top dressing of some glacial rock dust and recharge. She is a very sexy girl at this point!! I dig her alot!!!
Presently using Elements but will have to compare.
