All the girls are really looking great,
The two smaller plants in the back both have pistils now showing and the big girl up the front is just powering and the laterals are extending however this plant isnt showing signs of sex yet, so hopefully she will veg a little longer and give a bigger yield.
I also purchased a moisture sensor/probe to see how efficiently they are drinking water, as well as see how the smart pots are effecting the moisture levels.
Should I defoliate? I just let them go for it? I'ts always hard to make the decision as the ongoing debate has always confused me, perhaps someone can give me some expert advice, would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks in advance. GM
From what I see in your pictures, your colas aren't cramped, air circulation seems fine, leaves are healthy, and all of the bud sites are getting light. I won't defoliate unless some leaf is really making shadow to lower buds. Keep up the good job, see y'a around !
@bobo420,
Perfect cheers bobo,
I think ill just save up the pics for the whole week and then fill each week at the end of that week haha if that makes sense.
Just caught up with your grow! What a packed tent! I didn't see any evidence of training in your journal. Did you just let them grow natural?
Your photos are really nice. I especially like the bud shot from last week. You still have a few weeks left before harvest. I didn't notice any orange pistils. That means fatter buds!
@Greenman, Good to know. My current grow is almost done and I'm trying to figure out how many plants to start for the next grow. I think I'll go max of 2 autos, or 1 photo.
@Greenman, Your tent is about 3ftx3ft if I remember. How is it with all 3 of those plants in there? I'm trying to figure out how many plants to grow next session.
By the end of 3 weeks, you might need some support for those buds! They look like they might get top heavy! Oh the suffering we must endure.
@Billthebutcher,
Hey thanks mate,
Yeah I think I have about 3 weeks left, thats just an educated guess though, it could be longer. I just wanna see these buds double in size already, I'm a bit impatient but excited.
you're welcome! There's no wrong way and time to update, in my opinion, you can update twice a day if you want to, just might not be a notable difference on the plants for other people to see. I update once a week but I've seen people doing it on daily basics too.

@bobo420,
Thanks again man, yeah I've caught the journal up to today, I usually update bi-daily so I'm still getting used to this weekly setup here, I'll have to take pics all week then post all at once at the end of each week I guess, is that the normal method to use? I'm extremely new to GD.
