Technique
Week 6 started perfectly. I added honey to the feeding schedule, girls showing some extreme stretching. First girl has been topped on week 3 and showing better stretching, but has only 12 bud sites starting to form. Second girl, which has been topped 2 times, shows exceptional growth and more than 26 bud sites formed. I am tucking fan leaves to help small bud sites grow, added more red spectrum to penetrate bushy canopy.
Let's see what will come out of this test :) Will update week 6 with more photos.
Girls showing absolutely no deficiency, all leaves are strong (a bit bitten by cat, but he loves weed too:) ), plants entered stretching phase I am so excited to see which one will give better results with same genetics and same feeding, bushy or stretchy girl :)
Day 38 Update: Ms. Bushy added 4cm in height and became extremely bushy, 6 more bud sites trying to reach for light. I tucked most of fan leaves, because I don't want to stress and hinder stretch phase with defoliation. Will do it after flowering stage fully begins
Day 39 Update: Ms. Stretchy added 3cm to height in 1 day, looking happy.
Day 40 Update: Both girls significantly increased in height
Day 41 Update: Based on observations girls are gaining in height after each watering. To reduce stress on too much nutrients I changed watering scheme during stretching period, since plants need a lot of energy and water to build new cells. Runoff water is 1150ppm, intake water is 1200ppm, which means there is salt buildup going. New scheme
Day 42 Update: Girls shower sex and flowering is starting, future buds have started to form. Full feeding with 1100ppm boosted stretch even more, they added several cm in 3 hours after watering. So lovely to watch it being so alive :)
New scheme:
D1 - 3L full feeding (0.5L runoff)
D2 = 1L 6.1PH balanced water
D3 = 1L 6.1PH balanced water with fulvic acid to increase remaining nutrients update.
Same every 3 days. Will post update on tomorrows feeding runoff PPM

Grow Questions
AS205started grow question 4 years ago
Guys, girls got too bushy or not? Is it possible to defoliate in stretching phase? It's 10th day of 12/12, plants get 3-4cm every day, but bushes really hinder lower bud sites development... I am waiting for first flowers to appear to do defoliation and some lolipopping..

If you cant tuck them away then it wouldnt harm to much to defoilate just now. But do it all in one go, Dont want to constanly strip her during flower.
Good luck

Girls started showing sativa signs in stretch phase. They entered week 3 of 12/12 and flower stage fully began, still they continue to stretch and is it normal to show not symmetrical stem stretching? Plants have 30% sativa in genetics

It looks like the standard indica stretch, your plants were 22 cm tall before thee stretch and now are 40 cm. If it were a sativa it would have tripled its size. It also has to do with the size of the pot you are using, a smaller pot will keep the final size in check. Ans it is very normal for some stems to grow more than others

Dear community
Since stretching phase began and plants doubled in size, I started watering every day, F-W-1/2F-W-F. Plants look happy, showing no deficiencies or toxicity, runoff ppm increased to 2500!! Runoff PH is 6.0, input PH is 5.9-6.0 1000ppm. Does it need flushing?

Give only ph water for the next days, that happen when the plant donβt use every nutrient that you put on the last feeding, imagine you give 1500ppm but the plant only use 1000ppm that lives with 500ppm in the soil and that can cause salt buld up.
Wish it helps!
Cheers

I noticed today, that my timer was set to 12.5 L - 11.5 D, so plants were not receiving 12 hours of darkness. They started flowering a bit later than I suspected after switching to 12/12, may it be the reason? I fixed timer to proper 12/12, will it affect anything?

It may be the reason, who knows... never seen a cannabis whisperer.
I guess all it did was simulate the natural reduction but i don't see any downsides, what could had happen was them not flowering but since that is not even in questioning... its all fine, just keep them under 12/12 and its fine.

Full flower feeding with reduced Grow part (Nitrogen) got solution only to ~700ppm. Full dose of liquid koolbloom, flora bloom, honey, organic bloom boster and calmag couldn't get ppm past 700. Can it cause the problem? maintaining high dosage of bloom nutrients with low ppm?

Your ph should be a little higher for flower, 6.2 / 6.3, I always start flower at a much lower ec than what I was running in veg.
I start flower nutes at 1.2ec when button size buds have formed I run that a week, if early yellowing starts the next dose is 1.4 and run that for early flowering. Mid flowering I run 1.6 to 1.8 ec and late flowering I knock the nutes back to 1.2 or 1.4 depending on whether there was early yellowing. You shouldn't be feeding and grow nutes, your bloom nutes have enough N for the plants availability. Adding N through flower slows your bud growth and will help lockout to start due to salt buildup. Cheers friend

Girls stretched too much in preflower phase due to bad light spectrum (too much red and blue). Will these form decent colas? Lights changed to TS1000 and I added some UV bulbs, they are getting extremely frosty and buds develop fast, but I am afraid they will remain thin :(

What do you mean by too much red and blue? Is your lamp more powerful than the sun?
- Looks like they've only been flowering for 3 weeks, and got 6 - 7 weeks to go, according to the breeder. don't worry about it.

Dear community,
Is making longest cola shorter a common practice during mid flowering? I have 1 cola, shooting too tall and almost burning under the light, others remain on normal distance. Can topping few CM of it cause dmg to all buds on the stem?

Why dont you bend them or ballast it down with a little rope linked to the pot ?
Cutting will damage the total harvest

@FreshCoastOrganics, Plant I chopped had worse health and root system than the plant I left for ripening, they have 7 days difference in germination time. So I will give it another week minimum, pistils are still all white. And she will give much more yield than first plant.
Can't wait for both of them to dry and weight in :D

@CheckThoseTrichs, Thank you! They have been through a lot of stress, since it is my first grow ever, I learned a lot from my mistakes, but the plants are so resilient to stress, even high stress like PH fluctuations from 5.0 to 8.0 during feeding because of chinese PH meter, or too much nutrients, improper light spectrum, flipping to flower before veg cycle completed properly. They did not show even 1 sign of deficiency or toxicity. I am amazed by Cookies genetics

@@Athos, Yes it's stretching pretty well. I just don't have experience yet, I thought that symmetrical node spacing between leaves (Left - Right) would be kept till the end. Now its forming buds so I thought, that node forming will keep that "indica" style symmetry. Lights are pretty close, around 35cm now on full power (350W 2x 170W bloomspect, one is on bloom + veg mode, second is only in Bloom mode), plants are in Praying to Gods state, happy and healthy. Have some foliage left under since the last defoliation, waiting for all buds sites to become formed, maybe next week I will do final lolipopping/defoliation.
I still give around 8-45-42 NPK total combined ratio per L, think will keep it through the flowering watching deficiency / overdose carefully
Thank you for help,
