Happy Flowering @ChickenWing1024

My Sweet Rebels were exactly the same (also the smallest plants in whichever grow i ran them in). They stay very short & stack their nodes on top of each other tight than as they start to flower you see the Rebel stretch the spacing between the nodes by a considerable amount & all of a sudden the plant is twice as tall now. Even so, she never really becomes a tall plant or heavy yielder, but she definitely picks up rapid growth at a later stage & does stretch. Ive planted the Rebels in everything from 1L to 10L pots they just always stay small plants unless i top them & than do LST after the topping, but if i dont top them they basically just stay tiny. The Alpha King strain from the same breeder Christiania Seeds is the total opposite as that one grows really fast & big.

@ChickenWing1024, the Rebel flowers very fast & will start in weeks 3-4 or so, this breeder's genetics always start flowering in under 30 days ive noticed. I have Rebels & Alphas running right now under a 240W light. This is the 3rd time im running the Rebels now & i like the small stature of the plant due to my closet size. The Rebel is a very uniform & stable genetic it always grows exactly the same - stays small & seems like its never going to get anywhere than when it starts to flower it grows a lot taller (weeks 5-6 from seed) but she just doesnt yield in my experience. My average Rebel harvests are about 20-30g. Im fine with those harvests as i picked it because of its small stature, but if you want heavy yielding autos than you should look at President Seeds stuff their autos veg for 8 weeks than only go into flower so you end up with these big autos that look very similar to photos

@Tiaan, Hey Tiaan - Thanks man, I was quite worried about the size of the sweet rebel. Will definitely give the Alpha King strain a go next time and see if I can get larger yields but hopes are still high for a decent yield - as long as the sweet rebel does not go into flowering in next two weeks. How are you grows going and did you manage to get the new lighting?

Bro what are the odds lol Im from SA & buy my stuff at MSA so i was checking for new seeds to buy & saw the Divine Seeds but never heard of it so i came here to check it out & find another SA & MSA person. Im even growing in the exact same style closet + i have some Sweet Rebels running + i have that exact same white fan running (if its the same than it has a heating function too, but my heater broke so i just use it as a fan now). Ive even bought a single GSC seed too, but gave it to a friend. My sweet rebels are very small but im pretty sure its because im a noob grower lol because ive seen another diary on here where the guy's plant was way bigger. The Sweet Rebel's "sweet" surprised me because it was something i didnt expect, its like a sweet musk type aroma - not sweet sweet, more of a spicy sweet if that makes sense. Im also doing the Alpha Kings by the same breeder & they are at least twice the size with an old school chronic aroma to them reminds me of buying chronic in SA back in Matric ;) The odds of all of the above happening is just crazy what a small world. Happy growing im very curious to see how the Black Opium & rebels turn out MSA boys 👊

@ChickenWing1024, im using a QTM150 at the moment (from MSA shop), but i also ordered the new 120W red quantum boards they got in stock now so i will be using those 2 lights.

@Tiaan, Epic! exactly the same fan with the two heat settings haha. Goodluck with the grow man - What lighting are you using in the closet? ✊

Your garden sure looks great. Did you top your Auto Black Opium? Normally we don't recommend that, so if you did and it went well, we'd love to know about it :)

@DivineSeeds_Consultant, Thank you very much! there is no topping done on the plant - Just LST as the pre flowering stretch begun, I tend to move the main head away from the light for more than half the day to allow the other ones to shoot up more, seems to be working for the girl scout cookies as well - just waiting for pre flower so she will start stretching out. I have added a video to the week - it shows the main stem just going up to the side - keeping the main head against the wall of the tent so the others keep on fattening up with it. ALSO: AMAAAZING COLOURS on the strain! You guys rock, I definitely want to start a SOG grow with the black opium for a level canopy inside the closet, the dark colours are taking over my smaller leafs, never seen anything like it before.

Those are some special colors there! @ChickenWing1024, the purple strains are a favorite around my house but I can never see to hit the yields of other strains, looking good my man!

@MrJones, Hey MrJones - Still dont have a phone to take pictures but dry yield was 83 grams - Some really large hand sized buds weighing 5-9 grams each - have not weighed the trim but got a big ziplock in the freezer waiting to turn into bubble.
