These were cloned off my G4 grow before the flip. So these are about 8 weeks old. Will be moving from the 2x4 to the 4x4 in the next few weeks. 1 white widow. 3 power plant.

With G4 cut, dried and curing (and hella good if I do say so myself) G5 has taken flight! Ladies have moved into the 4x4 and I decided to go with just the power plant for this go and held back delta (clone of Betty White) for a uniform G6 grow. These are clones of Curly and Larry from G4 too. Have at least one of each and a mystery one. :). They are way taller than I wanted. This is because I was experimenting with my home made aero cloner and started too early. These have vegged for two months at this point in a tight 2x4. Will be throwing a two layer scrog/trellis on top of the rough mainline structure hiding in there. Plan to flip to 12/12 by Friday. Want to finish my chores around the tent before everything is locked down for flower. Have cleaned and sterilized everything, adjusted and reset all the automation controls, reorganized all my wiring, more clean up, moved my cameras, repotted into 3G fabric pots with fresh coco/perlite mix which has been rinsed and double buffered. Using canna coco but still like to rinse and buffer again. Happy with where I’m at. Everyone says cleanliness is next to godliness in the grow room and that is my motto this time. Shop vacuum setup in the room, Intake filter in construction and everything just organized. Now we can sit back and enjoy the next 10-11 weeks. Going for a less is more approach this time. Had good solid buds last time but still some low light larf because of the size. Hoping to keep these at max of one nice tops/colas per trellis square. Should be about 70 good tops. Let’s hope I can keep the stretch down but this may get ugly....

Haven’t been able to post for a bit. We’re through 16 days of 12/12; a week of transition and now done week 1 onto week 2. The stretch on these is heavy. I knew this but my clones were taken a month early I figure. So they’re very tall in the tent and lights are as high as they’ll go. We should be close to the end of stretch this week so here’s hoping we can make it work. Super happy with this grow. Nice and clean and tidy is the game. Bottoms are clean. Lots of nice lush green growth and flowers are really coming on now. Will do a heavy defoliation at day 21. Did a heavy defoliation at the flip. Let me know your thoughts!!

Stretch is done. Defoliation for F21 will be tomorrow. Other than starting these too early. Happy with the progress! Bud sites galore, nice healthy ladies, fungus gnats on the decline. On cruise control soon!

Humming along just beautifully. Heavily defoliation on f21 opened up lots of bud sites to the light. They’ve responded by packing on buds everywhere. Moved to the 32 gallon res this week as they’re drinking a lot now. 4 x 20 second feeds. Ppm around 700. Ph 5.7 light smell light last time. Seem to have gotten the fungus gnats under control with huge yellow sticky traps and a strong h2o2 drench. Cheers!!

It’s been a crazy week and not much tent time. They’re going nuts!! A little more larf than I would like but top colas are getting fat!! About half way-ish now so these are gonna be good! Stronger smell. More crystals. Much fatter! Woot!!

Had to get yo-yos they’re so heavy!! Smell is amazing. They’re looking great. 2-3 weeks from harvest. Will run two more weeks of nutrients and a few days of flushing. Then it’s chop day!!

Well. Looks like we’re done! 10-20 amber with the rest cloudy and crazy weight on these colas! Chopping tomorrow before lights on! Smell is better. Weight looks like more. Lot more orange pistals. Some later 8week bankers like last time but overall this was dry and forget after f21.
