This whole grow was just a comedy of errors. Temps got too hot, light was too close (maybe?), overfed, then forgot to water... just glad I got anything out of it at all! It lasted enough to be harvestable, but I would have liked for it to go a little longer. I'll give a smoke report soon.
I was really impressed that I didn't get (much) light bleaching. I got more stretch than I hoped for, and had the top of some buds about 10 inches from my TSW 2000. I re-hung things, and now it's 15" from the tallest, sites, but I absolutely cannot move the light up anymore - there's like 1.5 inches between the light and the top of the tent! Which is a long way to say that at 24", in flower, raising the light might not be needed.
3 weeks is a bit early to be seeing any nitrogen fade, so I'd consider nutrients/watering sched, while not wanting to make any big changes. Good luck.
@Green_Coffee, yeah, you're right. I think this was a heavier feeder than I expected, plus I'm battling really high temps. I doubled the nutes and gave a major dose of cal mag. Seems to have halted the deficiency.
The spacing in your manifold is great! Because of a number of snapped stems that I needed to tape up (and not train for a week while they recovered), my first manifold is much less regular.
@Green_Coffee, I've taken to supercropping my past two or three plants to avoid that very thing. I'll just let branches grow, then pinch and bend them when they're long enough. So much safer and it's never seemed to slow them down.
Sorry for your luck man, I have been struggling with massive Humidity, sometimes you have to play the cards and hope for the best, they still look great!

Posted this one just for you bud!
Awesome, when doing a mainline with autos you have to move fast :) most training like this needs to be completed before the end of week 4 - I just did a modified version of topping that I should be able to produce 8 colas like nug buckets without the mainlining, will shoot up a quick diary if all goes well, and journal the flower and harvest stages of the grow, it is a FastBuds Gelato.
@MrJones, it's just Bush Doctor Coco Loco straight from the bag. Same stuff I've been using for 2 years now without problems. I think it's basically Happy Frog with perlite and some coco coir added.
