Week 9!!
18/11 - First flowers! I started with the normal flowering feeding solution. The smeel is increasing day by day, it's becoming more potent
Today i also removed the biggest leaves on top
20/11 - Increased the distance of one lamp from the biggest plan and removed all small branches and small leaves on the bottom, which were getting no light
Tomorrow i will get some pics of the plant structure
23/11 - I had to tie the biggest plant from DinaFem as you can see in today's pic, she's very big and stretchy and she will cover other plants' buds. The right plant has two beautiful colas, full of bud sites, today i tried to bend one of them so it's completely under the light... Hope this one can be the most potent bud of the entire plant by doing so :D
@AsNoriu, niiice! I will try with 72 hours, but i will keep watering them during this night period, properly flushing the roots. I have a green headlight, which is perfect to do things inside the tent without "waking" the ladies :D Thanks again for your advice
@Ninja31, i read a lot about darkness shock. There is one really good article or research work about it from holland scientist. Short version of it. Plant needs at least 72 hours ( 3 days ) for results to be expressed in real trichoms increase.
In shorter time plant reacts, starts to defend himself, but for that to become reality plant needs time, 3 nights. Research showed aswell that there is no bigger increase up to 5 nights, but cuttoff minimum is 3.
Water them well before darkness, give 3-4 nights and enjoy frostiest weed ever ;)
@AsNoriu, Unfortunately i must plant this activity due to job issues :/
My aim is to dry them in the tent, because outside humidity is very high and i have to limit the smell.
That's why i can't harvest buds separately, even if this would be a great choice (i like the cluctch effect too ;)
By the way i will wait 'till the end before harvest... I also want to try 36 hours of darkness this time, i read that this increase potency :O

I stoped disturbing them in the night, first 5 or last 5 min of darkness wont change much, but gives you vission even with simple flash light.
Green light beeing reflected , but still is used in photosintesis. You can influence your cycle.
