Hello gardeners! I'm starting my third grow after two good attempts where I learned a lot. In my first trial I was able to pull 40 + 20 + 20 = 80 g under not optimal conditions (limited time mostly), and in my second I improved to roughly 40 + 40 + 60 = 140 g with one additional week in veg and an additional led panel during flower. Now, my goal is to harvest 3 x 60 = 180 g with pretty much the same set up. The differences from my previous grow will be: 1) 1 more week in veg (total 6 weeks): I felt that my girls were not mature enough when I flipped them to 12/12 in the last grows. I wanna see them stronger and more robust this time 2) Use a larger pot size during flower (5 gal): for the same reason as above, I want to give them the opportunity to be strong and robust plants 3) Reduced number of colas (16 per plant): last time I was a bit conservative doing lollipop and removing the little side branches, and ended up with ~23 colas/ plant, which did not allow proper spacing between colas. Although ventilation was never a problem, there was a lot of shade that could not be avoided. 4) Improved feeding regime: (see images) one of my goals with my growing is to establish a good feeding regime that works reasonably well for average strains with my growing medium (PRO MIX herbs and vegetables). Since the medium is a hybrid between soil and soiless, the plants don't need extra nuts in the first weeks, but as the plants grown, the organic compost present in the medium becomes not sufficient. My feeding strategy is basically the GH Flora Series - Drain to Waste chart with reduced amounts in the first 4 weeks and slightly less nitrogen during flowering. 5) Height Control: since the girls will have an extra week to grow, I'll need to be extra cautious and control their height from the very beginning. I'll be doing 1 top in the CBD and GG, and probably 2 on the Moby Dick. I also may try something similar to manifolding on the Moby Dick if she starts to grow really faster than the others. In addition, I'll be scroging everything as low as I can. 6) LED panel distance: last time plants finished flowering about 16 in away from the lamp. I feel that I can lower it to 13~14 without problems, so I'll try this too SET UP -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grow tent 2 x 3 x 6" hidden on a closet (0.54 sq meters) Light: 2x LED Panel VIPARSPECTRA 450w (200w real) Air filtration VivoSun 4" exhausting outside the closet Air circulation: 2x 120mm 5v desk fan Container: Red Solo cups / 1 GAL / 3 GAL / 5 GAL Medium: 75% PRO MIX Herbs and Vegetables (sphagnum peat moss, Peat humus, compost, perlite, gypsum, limestone, organic fertilizer, Mycorrhizae - NPK: 0.30 - 0.05 - 0.10) + 25% Perlite Nuts: GH Flora Series Ph: 6.0

I've been growing Moby Dick using a mainlining technique. During the stretch phase, some secondary branches have grown a lot and are not close to the main stem anymore. Should I keep them? Should I cut? Will they help making big, fat colas?

Hello Go through the whole plant thoroughly and any that are really not getting the best light remove. But if you have a few secondary that are getting good strong light...id say keep them. They may just be smaller dense buds off the lower side of your biggest colas but would still give you some great buds. And then you'll have some branches to compare against, whether keeping the secondary shoots helps or harms.👍

The top leaves on my GG#4 started to get brown on the edges. Initially I thought it was light burn, but the stains kept progressing after I readjusted the light distance. Is it a nut burn?

I don't think they're burned. Leaves burned by light behave differently. They twist and look dry. Your leaves look good, try to raise the PH a little to 6.5 if you are watering with a smaller value, or check the EC and play with the dosage of nutrients.

Found burnt leaves in all three plants. They are all from the bottom and fell from the stems. Not sure if it's a)lack of nutrients b)nutrient burn c)nothing wrong, just the normal process for shaded leaves. What do you guys think?

Приветствую, друг! 👋 То, что у вас где-то в гуще растения обнаруживается дефицит на некоторых листочках - не означает что растение испытывает какие-то проблемы! Растение действует логически! В гущу растения плохо проникает свет и он несколько раз затеняется листвой, растущей сверху! Растение чувствуя что это не лучшее место для развития, отправляет необходимые элементы в новые точки роста, которые хорошо освещены! Где мало света, листва желтеет, усыхает и опадает. Это нормально для её возраста! А она у тебя уже большая девочка! 💪 Не нужно переживать, продолжайте выращивать! Дефицит элементов в нижних частях растения - нормальная ситуация, для твоего этапа цветения! 👌 Удачи бро! ✊😇

I'm on day 50 of flowering and started checked the trichomes. I can see that they are not fully white (opaque) yet, but at the same time there are several amber/brown ones. I was planning to harvest about 10 days from now, what do you think?

wow you're definitely having a good amount of amber trichromes already. Sometimes the sugar leaves will get ambers a lot sooner than the buds will and you want to be careful to not fully gage readiness based on those leaves trichromes. I think your window for harvest is open and your should flush if you need to. Also, myself and several other grower friends who did some high cbd plants, medical strains, noticed that they were often ready for harvest sooner than we expected or planned on. I don't know if this is because of the cbd aspect and if it happens to all higher cbd strains...but so far we have definitely noticed that is a trend. I know dinamed says around a 60 day flowering period...but we should always take any breeders time-line with the idea that there's usually some variation grower to grower. I know you have a few strains so you may have to harvest at different times, but I'd say cut the cbd soon, the gorilla could use another week, and the moby is looking very close also. Perhaps give the gorilla the 10 days, and check the moby in 7. Happy harvesting. ✌️

New growth by the very ending of flowering. Both GG and Moby Dick have started to put lots of new growth in form of new calyxis and new white pistils (mostly on top of each other, fox tailing). How should I proceed? Wait more ? keeping watering or feeding?

Foxtails from heat or possibly the plant being to close to the light. This wont change your harvest time and wont cause you any problems. I havent had it since i improved my setup slightly but wasnt an issue. Just keep growing and dont let it through you off your harvest time.

This is caused by heat and/or light stress, too much red in some sativas that evolved close to the equator can also trigger this. I think you should keep it going untill you got the foxtails at cloudy and the buds themselfs done to amber, just try to make it in such a way that nothing is too imature nor too mature. Foxtails look good imo, may be some extra work but looks good. Just keep growing it as you were so far.

At this point I'd check the trichomes and see where your at. I've had a few plants do strange things at the end of flowering. I personally would just give the plant water from here on out. From the looks of it the foxtailing isnt gonna get any better so the decision is up to you.

@blasterw32, Moby Dick can stretch upto 2x during bloom mate 👍 With the training work being used you'll be fine 🤗 I'll keep popping in as you update 🙏 All the best ✌️ Mark..

@DinafemSeeds, thanks for passing by! may I ask, how much stretch should I expect in the Moby Dick? Do you think she'll grow much more than the other ones (judging by the pictures and the training I'm using on them)? thanks!
