@DrGreenThumb95, Thanks. Looking back, there are 3 areas which I wish I had done better. I wish I had did a better job pruning/defoliating under the screen, I wish I had filled the screen out more, and now knowing that it didn't stretch much, I wish I had let it grow through the net a week or so before flipping. It was still a good result, but I feel it could have been better (don't we all).

@Puffer_Bill, Most definitely. Going to be a lot of trimming, but I am going to do it all dry. I feel it will make the number of flowers I have to trim easier to do.

@TheBudWhisperer, I did upload one bad trich shot from my DIY lens. Hopefully the loupe gives a better look tonight after the lights come on.

@buddha61, meh - don’t think it’ll make a huge difference one way or the other. Even if ur still 2-3 weeks out you’re so close to the finish that I wouldn’t worry about it causing a serious problem. The loupe will tell you a lot more so good that’s it showing up soon👍

@TheBudWhisperer, Told ya it feels like a few more weeks yet :) I do have a loupe on the way from Amazon (here tomorrow), so hopefully I will be able to get semi clear trich shots. Yea, the nute burn was noticed a couple weeks ago, and I cut back on the bloom a bit. The Mag Pro doesn't have calcium, but the bloom formula has 2% calcium, apparently. Wonder if I should go back to close to full strength on the bloom and cut the Mag Pro back. Now that you mention it, it does seem that the discoloration has started since I lowered the strength of the bloom.

@SommerVirelli, Thanks. I attribute a lot of it to reading/gaining information from the internet. It doesn't hurt that as a kid my family usually had gardens (tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, etc) and I would help grow that each year. I of course had some veg growing pains, but have got her looking much better in flower.

Filled corners or not that’s an excellent scrog dude. Canopies so nice and even too. Think you’ll be impressed with the yield dude👊. Very nice👌

@TheBudWhisperer,Agree. Next grow I think I am going to go with manifolding. I got a few more weeks to see how I like the yield :)

@buddha61, hear that - biggest knock with scrog is that the veg. Time takes what it takes to fill up the net. That said - totally worth it!👍😎

@TheBudWhisperer,Thanks. I realized after I decided that I was going to scrog that it was going to take too long for one plant to fill the entire screen, so I just tried for even and as big as I could in the time I vegged.

@JohnnyBlaz3, the inside/usable area is 27"x30". I obviously didn't fill it completely out, but it was a last second thing to do (and would have taken many more weeks), as I wasn't sure what method I was going to employ, just LST and trying to bush her or trying to scrog. In the end, I wasn't sure if I would want to go back and try a scrog again, so I went ahead and used it. When I look at the canopy shot posted D64, or even when opening the tent, there is some small joy received when seeing a relatively flat canopy level. I am already considering mainlining/manifolding next round.

JohnnyBlaz3commented6 years ago

@buddha61, on my first grow so nothing to compare to but that's about where I noticed some sugar as well. Very exiting time indeed! I'm only a few days ahead of you. what size is your net?

@JohnnyBlaz3, Thanks. She is really starting to come along now. Lots of beginning flower growth started, and I believe I found a leaf that actually has some trichrome development starting, which I would think 13 days of 12/12 would be a bit early to start, but I won't complain.

Budofpraycommentedweek 186 years ago

hi dude !! It is not forbidden to Harvest first the most mature flowers and after the other wich was underexposed 😌 that's why i grew aloe vera because his juice allows to the plant cuts to quickly heal after this operation in order to reduce stress 👊 but if i have an advice is to buy a chinese cheap scope...mine works very weel for a cheap price and this has changed my life as a grower 🙏

@buddha61, I had to part harvest my Think Big Auto at 11 weeks, 5 zips of the biggest colas. But then I got another 13 zips at 16 weeks. Surprisingly the quality of the smoke was no different, the 16 week buds were just more filled out.

buddha61commented6 years ago

@Budofpray, If I do go with a scope, it will definitely have to be next grow, as I'm not going to worry too much about it right now, as I can kinda see when looking, just won't be able to add many good trich photos to the journal. I realize a partial/staggered harvest can be done on a plant, but I am pretty sure that my tent is going to function as a drying chamber, so it will be one chop this time.

Crwfz1commentedweek 205 years ago

Beautiful how big is your screen may I ask

buddha61commented5 years ago

@Crwfz1, It was 27" x 30" on the inside. I had some scrap 30" wood, and that became the frame for the scrog. Thinking about doing it again, but at almost the full size of my tent, about 35" from pole to pole, though it is dubbed a 3x3 tent, so should be 36x36.

@LaCreme, Thanks. I hope it provides some information that can be gained to have a better first grow than I did. While mine was a success, there were things I could have done better.
