Hey guys! Sorry for my absence lately. Seems like everyone is doing really well! Keep up the good training!! I’ll be starting another grow soon and I’ll be sure to post my progress here as well.

Hey guys! So bummed i just came across this thread last week. I have read every page and am geeking out so hard and can't wait to train my babies.
Meanwhile here's a plant I've been vegging a while while working on improving my bloom room. Never actually topped her, just LSTd the top over since this strain is very branchy. Using some knowledge from this thread i tied her down with binder clips and pipe cleaners and she took to it nicely.
Meanwhile have some of her clones that I'm quadlining and will have pics to share soon!

A little defol and clean up on my quad attempt
These look very nice. Tons of green growth in the newer leaves, these are going to end up pretty if you can keep them healthy until the end.

Appreciate the kind words ase, only my second grow and I changed literally everything up since my first so still trying to get dialed in lol

I'm 3 years in and still changing everything up. That's the beauty of gardening...growing, evolving, tweaking, and best of all learning from your peers. There is no one size fits all approach. Everyone has different constraints, environments, laws, and desired outcomes.
Sure we all desire affordable, clean, tasty meds. But aside from a few basics that all plants require (light, nutrients, water, etc) it will be a constant evolution keeping your brain awake at night "ooh, i should've done this thing a little differently..." or "I wonder where my new garden "thingy" (insert descriptions) is in the tracking system?" LOL
Like they say "using weed isn't addictive, but growing it is!"
Hahaha growing is the only addiction from our plants, wouldn't have it any other way. Too many ideas waiting to come out hahah

As i tweak my AC setup while tracking shipping on my new light i started quadline training some of my veg babies.
It was a little weird because they're like 20th generation KC Mango clones from a seed i popped 2 years ago, so none of the nodes pair up anymore and each branch of the quad is a different height. But what's the harm in trying?
These clones are the end of that phenotype as i recently grew a new mango mom and am just now rooting clones off of her. Lesson learned only going to clone branches with symmetric leaf sets at least for quadding and leave staggered ones on her or only SOG them. Meanwhile have a baby northern lights to veg into a mom for quads and have two blueberries that i just took 6" tops off of and put them (tops) in the bloom room to sex the plants. Will continue training them for a few weeks until the weed stork brings me pink or blue cigars LOL

Quick little update on my raspberry cough quad. Think I'll be topping the new nodes pretty soon
Appreciate any feedback/advice!

Yesterday I transplanted our Phantom Cookies Domina into a two gallon fabric pot with Promix HP.
She is seven weeks old today and since she showed no signs of transplant shock we decided to do a little defoliation and some serious bondage.
Canopy is all nice and even now. She should be going into the flower tent on December 15th so she'll have plenty of time to turn into a bush again. She has been fed Megacrop exclusively and is taking 4.5 g/gn. Nevertheless she is very small and delicate, like a tender wildflower, not like a hardy cannabis plant. So I'm fascinated to see how she'll grow out.

Also transplanted, defoliated and tied up my Chocolate Haze plant. Here's the before:
And the after:
She's a much hardier plant.

Yes- as soon as they're long enough to tie down,tie em down
Looks like you've got a good start on a nice quad.

One of my 3 plants from regular seeds (1-WW) I suspect is a male, the other two (2-WW & 3-WWG) are showing pistils so that is reassuring. The plants were germinated 12 weeks ago and been outside of the balcony the whole time. So far I am pleased with their progress, their Brix levels were last measured at about 18-19% and they seem bug free and appear in good shape, but early days yet!
Really like the look of that, might have my DK orange go down that route
