This plant has shot up over the last week. Practically doubled in size. Long branching and it's main cola soon over took the other plants in my tent in week 7. I can't let them grow much taller so I've transitioned to bloom nutes early.
Did some lollipopping of the lower branches. Huge internodal spacing on this one. Won't be a result of temperatures so I think it's just the strain. Very leggy plant.
She was easily growing over an inch a day and so had to supercrop the main cola for a bit more space. She's in recovery and looks to have put an extra couple of inches on since.

@ForestGreen, Understandable and the bending was the right thing to do. Nicely done!

@Zannabis7, Thanks a lot mate. My two 3BOG grew to a nice height, just right for my tent, but I underestimated this one so hence the weird bending. Looks like she's stopped stretching now though so that should do it.

Looks like you're off to a great start. Interesting nutes - never heard of Oldtimer Grow. Best wishes on the grow.

@Zannabis7, thanks. It's a UK company. Organic liquid nutes. Pretty good and clean.

Thanks for the update. Looking very nice. I love the shot of the strong bend on the main stem. I never have enough courage to make such a strong bend out of fear of snapping the main stem! Continued best wishes on the grow.

@ForestGreen, Thanks for the tip. Much appreciated!

@Zannabis7, Thanks! I think the key is to squeeze all the way along to crush that part of the stem. Then it bends easily without snapping.

Don’t panic yet, I have the real Bay Area GSC and it naturally blacks out at week 5. But the first half of flower it’s Forrest Green? Lol. I also grew a purple kush a few years back that only changed weeks 6-7. So sometimes it’s more than just cold weather. It’s a hormone switch in heavy or near end flower.

@bobo420, Thanks mate. I know. They've got a good wobble on them when I pick them up. Those colas getting heavy.
Edit: oops thought you were talking about the 3BOG. But this one is doing well too

@Lucky777, no not really. Flowery and sweet. Like some sort of candy.

Nice update, some good looking buds ;)
As of purple, you can try lowering your (night) temperature, if you can, by a few degrees. It shold 'jump start' them to bring that purple out.

@bobo420, Yeah I hear that. Not sure there's much I can do about it unfortunately. When it looks more or less done I can take it out the tent and leave it in a cold room for a few days. Maybe that will bring out some last colour.
