Why did two of my plants stretch massively
vertex8started grow question 4 years ago
Taking a look at the video in week 9 you can see that two of my plants have stretched substantially more than the others, im trying to figure out if this is something I can prevent or if this is purely genetics.. ant advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks

it is genetics.some phenotypes stretch more under hps lamps.but you can still try to minimize it using supercropping method. simply bend the tallest branch hard,break inner muscles,no surface cracks.it is not too late to apply it.bend it hard and tie it somewhere to keep that shape and you'll get a more even canopy than now
Hudson2384answered grow question 4 years ago
This is normal during the flowering phase. The key rule when flipping your light schedule is to factor in double growth. So if your canopy is at 2 feet then your plants could be as large as 4 feet at the end of the grow.

DrJynx86answered grow question 4 years ago
After you harvest, pull the roots of the soil, and you might see differences in root development, that seems to happen if your substrate is not too homogenous, and plants really love soft, aireated soil, so any pot with extra perlite or vermiculite might have exploded growth on roots and roots always translate to vegetable growth.
Keep on the great care!
Happy smokes!

Stipules or calyx? Preflower?Are these stipules OR calyx from which pistils will pop out?
Is this preflower? Or what does actually preflower mean? Flowering itself starts when the pistils appear right ?

secondary branches stretch during floweringI've been growing Moby Dick using a mainlining technique. During the stretch phase, some secondary branches have grown a lot and are not close to the main stem anymore. Should I keep them? Should I cut? Will they help making big, fat colas?

Should I do anything with all the bud sites that are underneath my canapoy?There are a lot of bug sites underneath my canopy that will probably never see light. Should I just let them be or should I look to trim them down? I will be going into week five of flower here in a few days.

What next for these clones?I have always mainlined or done some sort of LST with clones. This time I've let them grow out, but dunno what to do now.
What should my next steps be to maximise the amount of bud I can pull off each plant? Do I leave the clone to grow wild (I have the space for it)?

Grow help and adviceHey guys little help.
Need an opinion on how my plants are looking. I’ve successfully LST the one but left the other. Both are topped under 18/6 light. Watering .75 L with bio buzz grow and add bloom and top max every other watering.
Also does this look like flowering ?
THANKS
