@@flowerboy, Haha no worries, they look fantastic 😎 I just put my scrog in a few hours ago actually haha

@HighTV, hi man, nice to have you here! and thanks for the support 🙏✌️🏽 u did noticed right, i did “overwater” them, but it was that time they were bone dry so i gave them water and took the pictures cuz i didnt eant to wait the next day when they look like nothing happened ;) im planing to use a net on my next run ;)

@Stick,thank for such a fast and detailed answer.. ive actually answered you right after but i wrote it trough the app and it didnt post it.. anyway you said it perfect: its all about the condition of your space.. i currently dont have a fan but its on its way.. by now im relying on my pasive intakes and a fan that is sucking the air out of the tent.. lamp is like 10-12cm from canopy with temperatures around 24-27C.. and the girls are looking great but i just wanted to be sure im doing it right

Hi @@flowerboy! I've been using a 200W CFL for a while and noticed this: most of the times, you put the lamp right above the canopy, even as close as 2 inches / 5 cm, BUT it's all about the airflow. Concretely 2 inches won't burn your buds if the plant's summits does receive a slight continuous fresh breeze. Otherwise, if the air is static, a 2 inches plant<-->lamp distance will burn the apical summits. In other words, every setup is different, due to different bulbs / different fans / different environment temps. The best thing is to try by yourself, during a two days period where you can watch your plants every hour or so (weekend?): start by putting the CFL at 10 inches / 25cm, check the heat with your hand and give the plant 3-4 hours to react. If she's showing curling-upward leaves or other heat-stress signs, increase the distance. If she's praying the light and don't seem to bother about the distance, decrease the distance a bit and give her another couple of hours to adapt & react. Doing this step by step, you should be able to determine the best plant<--->lamp distance for your setup/environment. Hope this will help, keep us up-to-date and happy growing 👊

@jjmed88,they sure are.. you cant pass them without getting sticky as hell 😀 first time im having a hard time defoliating since they are so sticky

@CANNACANUCK,word man.. this strain has an insane taste and smell.. you can recognize it from a mile away.. this is my second run of CMOG and will definitely hit the third time because i know i can make her go better.. it is a medium sized plant for sure and a fast flowering one.. perfect all round smoke if you ask me.. although its a 80/20 indica it doesn’t stone you to the ground if you light it up first in the morning.. but definitely knocks you out at before sleep. its a must to have at least one Chocolate mint in your garden if you ask me :) thanks again @humboldt for making this wonderful strain

@CANNACANUCK, Now that's feedback we love to hear and coming from you means a lot 👊 I can't believe how popular our Chocolate mint og is on the grow diary platform, she is a fantastic strain and we are so glad that more and more growers are trying this emerald triangle treasure 👌 Another Chocolate mint og diary completed and approved 👊 With love from Humboldt County✌️ Kind regards Team-HSO..

@@flowerboy, With defoliation it's a fine line as you are taking away parts of the plant that provide energy and convert the nutrients. This is best done slowly and with leaves blocking predominant budsites 👍 I like to get all defoliation done by week 3 of bloom. As budsites are just forming and you will easily see the budsites that need exposing to more light 👍 This can be achieved by defoliation or by tucking and bending leaves so they are not blocking those valuable budsites 👌 Chocolate Mint OG. Looking in stunning shape. Stacking on some serious weight in the home stretch👍 Keep the updates coming mate as harvest is approaching fast 👊 With love from Humboldt County✌️ Kind regards Mark..

@Humboldt_Seed_Organisation,thanks for being constant suppor on my diary! i really appreciate it :) but since you are so easy to reach, can you please give an advice or two on defoliation techniques? im having a struggle to do it right sonany help would be appreciated 😀 cheers from croatia guys ;)

@ganjapanda,trust me it is 😀

@@grzesiek,im planning to buy one in the near fiture.. but for now, because im limited with space this is the best i can go with anyway, i dont want to give them less light, so im always on the safer side ;)

@@@flowerboy, That's what we like to hear. So glad you like our Chocolate mint og, she's definitely one of my favourite strains. That's gassy flavour from Emerald triangle OG and those stunning purple colours from the GrandDaddy Purps. What's not to love 👌 With love from Humboldt County ✌️ Kind regards Team-HSO..

@Humboldt, thanks for stopping by 😀 chocolate mint og is for now my favorite plant and smoke. im really satisfied with cfl for now and i think i’ve found my sweet spot..like you said 10-15 cm is just fine for 125cfl, and a small fan. and thanks for the advice fam :)
