Damn that is just shy of 10m, im glad everything that has come before leading up to this point has worked out so well for you..
I'd be like that kid in a candy store just walking around awe struck in that space..... :goof:

where have i seen the structure of them stankberries before ... hmm :ganjamon:

Really must be nice to get in there and take care of the girls without the weird stooping/stretching, With the bigger tent comes more lights. What you been eyeballing?

I am eyeballing strips or something similar. I need to be able to add the light over the tall girls but it has to be something I can run close to the tops of the plant. I won't make a decision until I get the light mover running. Had to order another part to make it do what I want it to do and I am still waiting for it to come in. I am not looking for a lot of watts (electricity bill is bad enough as it is), but I need better coverage up top on the amazon girls.

DTF #1 Veg Day 131

Been about 10 days since we posted any updates on her I think. She is adjusting well to her 5 gallon pot and is starting to grow like she is enjoying it. I kept her small for so long, I was worried that it would stunt her when I turned her loose, but that doesn't appear to be the case.

I gave her about 2/3 of a gallon of water last night (2nd watering post up potting to the 5 gallon pot) and she is starting to drink so I know her roots are doing what I want them to do. Not sure how long I will keep this girl in the 5 gallon pot....probably a couple more weeks. She will get up potted when I am happy with her roots. From there, she will be going into a 25 gallon pot. Yep....we will be moving up into the major league sized pots for this girl.

She was about 36" across but as she has grown, she has curled up inwards and isn't quite as wide. She is sitting at about 32" across. I will adjust the straps on her again in a few more days and that should push us close to 40" across. Will likely make those adjustments, trim her up again and let her go for another two weeks and repeat. I am hoping that will get us close to the 48" mark. Overall....very pleased with how this grow it turning out.

Looks great and the shape is getting back to normal...so many stretchy sativas lately! And I'm surprised you have any pipe cleaners left after pulling down the ATF SG

What’s up my friend, it’s been a while and I hope all is well! By the looks of it, things are really popping off over here! That DTF is gonna be huuuuge in a few weeks... have a great night man :passitleft:

Kismet · Mar 5, 2019

Wow veg day 131. Thought i was being patient with 90.

InTheShed · Mar 5, 2019

Yours probably don't spend 45 days in a solo cup though

.

Kismet · Mar 5, 2019

How big the 45 day solo cup get ? Excuse me for not looking through the 450 page journal. Vaguely remember a solo cup auto they ran?

InTheShed · Mar 5, 2019

I may be wrong about the 45 days. Van will correct me:

Van Stank · Mar 5, 2019

I grew her slow during the transition of buying the house since the close date kept moving. She was in a solo cup for about a good while, can't remember exactly how long. Then she ended up in 2 gallon for a good bit until recently when she got up potted to the 5 gallon. I will get a few more weeks out her in the 5 and then on to the big pot. She's gonna be ready to explode then.

InTheShed · Mar 5, 2019

I'm sticking with 45 days then. It was a long home-buying process and this was taken in the new basement in January!

That's impressive for a SoloCup ..... Have a great day mr.Stank.

Van Stank · Mar 6, 2019

I went all out on that one......i up potted it to a half gallon pot from there. That's where she is still sitting.

She was showing signs of being angry over her living arrangements, but she seems to have calmed down with a couple small top dressing. Either that or all my threats of cutting her down finally motivated her lol.

Hey CK, great to see you brother! Hope all is well with you out west.

Thanks man, very pleased with the DTF. Cut a tester branch off her on day 70, its probably almost ready to try tomorrow. I am excited for this one. Cheers brother.

Edit: Wait, not sure which DTF you were talking about CK....the one in flower or the one in veg. The tester is obviously off the flower girl :rolleyes:

Hindu Kush 1.2.1 Harvest Day 72

I stuck this girl in a corner for a couple more days and finally got around to chopping her today. Not expecting a huge yield. I only chopped off the top 5 or 6 colas today. I left the lowers on and gave the plant another drink of water. Gonna give them another week or so to add a touch more yield. I am think that all together, I might get 3 zips. She wasn't grown for yield.....more to let her grow for a bit and keep the line around to do some work with.

I smoked a tester of her and I gotta believe she is more potent this time around.....if not potent, certainly narcotic. She smells amazing! Got her washed and rinsed and hanging for 2 days.
