Starting a mild grow fertilizer. Will likely top this next week depending on growth. Hoping these four girls will fill my 4 x 4 tent nicely.

All four girls were topped early in this week. They are all picking up speed in vegetation. I also did some light defoliation.

Switched over to Sensi Grow ... mainly sense the flower nutrients I have are Sensi Bloom. I am not sure that it matters but figured the nutrient profile would be closer and less of a change when they go into bloom cycle - likely next week. The photos are likely closer to week 5.5

Getting the girls ready to switch to bloom cycle. Thinking I will switch over on Sunday. Added a second of my custom LED lights and dialed down to a total of 440 watts. The girls were used to one set running at 380 watts. Will slowly ramp up to 600 watts total. Each can go to about 380 watts but thinking it would be overkill.

End of the first week of 12 / 12. The Phantom OG are growing like monsters and the Gorilla Girl are nothing to sneeze at either. I am thinking the group is looking pretty happy at this point. Up to 600 watts at the wall now. I believe they are doing fine with it. I am not sure how high I should mount the support?

Not too much to add this week. They are getting dense in the tent. I believe the stretch is nearly over... hope so as running out of height in the text.

Grow Questions
JS100
JS100started grow question 5 years ago
These four girls are filling the tent. I think I should be okay with height however they are getting dense in the tent. Would it make sense to thin out some of the shorter branches at this point or better to just leave alone?

Hey man, at this stage you'll want to remove anything that doesn't recieve light but first remove any large fan leaves at the top of the plant blocking light reaching underneath. Cut any branches of that didnt stretch. Doing this may remove about 1/3rd of the plant but will help divert energy to the tops where you want it and increase better airflow. It is scary cutting that much away but will help you. For your tent next time, maybe one week less in veg? 🌱🤔

Performed a little bit of clean up over the week. The stretching on the Phantom OG plants seem to have stopped while the Gorilla Girl plants are still stretching a bit but slowing.

Hello.. Hope you are well.. Beautiful looking plants.. Well done..personally i wud trim out any lower thin branches as u mentioned.. Maybe bend the top bk on the phantom og n takw away any potential popcorn bud stems.. Id leave ur gorilla girl alone unless she has major branching around lower 3rd of plant.. Hope she turns out well 4 u.. Gud luck n stay safe.. 👍🍀

@Jef79, thanks for the tip. I’ve been cleaning up the lower thin branches a bit.. I am going to do a bit more. Everything looks healthy inside... Just lots of short branches that aren’t going to amount to much - the ones I am cutting out.

@CRiSPrGrow, yes indeed. I appreciate your feedback. I was uncomfortable with trimming too much out.

@Visions, thanks! The Phantom OG are a couple days ahead but all are tracking well. I am excited for both. Good luck with your Gorilla Girl grow... I’ll have to watch that one as well.

Hi! Nice choice of strain, im currently growing the Gorilla Girl strain in organic living soil to get maximum taste out of my flower. What do you think of growing this strain so far? Has it been without problems or have you encountered some issues with the strain in particular? Anyway, have a great day and happy growing. 😎 🌱
