Chopped off a few leaves on 9/8 to open up the center of the plant. I leave most of the outer fan leaves in place as weight to pull the arms out to get the most out of my space. Getting big now, first signs of flowers she is looking great. Pointed out where I hit one of the growth tips on the last topping I did it so early in the grow.
Looks really good, she started drinking water faster this week, I'm adding more or less 32 oz of weak feed water. Starting to have Ph issues in all the buckets. Might have to swap water sooner than final flush if it doesn't come back undercontrol.
No defoliation last week so we might do some of that here in week 6 as she continues to stretch out. I'll be keeping the lights around 12-16" from the top to try and keep the stretching down.
Keep watching and adjusting Ph into the 5.8-6.0 range and feed/water as needed this week is the plan.
9/10 update the middle if basically full now. Pretty much over night. She growing along great and really starting to smell a bit this week.
@OutForReal, I like it a bunch too. Was a hit around the campfire a few months ago too. I plan on trying to clone this one and the purple haze next to her for some fun.
@BigDaddyK, should add on the 15gal purple haze I'm running a 8w 4port with 4 strips. I need to add something to help the roots branch out in that tank to make better use of the space as the roots like to clump.
@BigDaddyK, air flow is a 24" fan blowing around during the day and 24x7 carbon exhaust with temp controlled 6" ac infinity and a 4" ac infinity pushing cooler air into the room on a similar schedule. Bubbles are always flowing and after the first few roots on at a little lower than the highest setting on a 4w air pump into 10" air stones. I'll just plan better next time and have the rapid rooters I normally use on hand.
