@Mr_Ewell, Thanks! yeah, you may be right, Ive struggled with the soil this whole grow. Which soil have you been using?

Wow look at these giants! I had very low yields for mine (about 20g per plant, so i think you're definitely getting more than that.) Im trying to figure out why mine didnt grow like yours....im guessing the lights, and your choice of 5gal buckets. Your plants seem way behind mine in maturity at 9 weeks though, id say you still have at least 3 weeks left I just posted my final harvest entry if you want to check that out

@ThePotanist, Thank you! I'll be running the timelapse until the very end so stay tuned for a lifetime timelapse :)

@Mr_Ewell, just posted a photo in my 8th week of the phenotype differences

@Mr_Ewell, oh wow ha, nevermind! What spectrum have you been using? i didnt use any red light until they started showing preflowers

@Mr_Ewell, thats interesting, my phenotypes are definitely noticeable...seems these seeds have high genetic variance then. 3/4 of my plants have nicely reacted to the LST and yea there are a lot of bud sites. One of them however just tried to shoot up and never really branched out, its just developing one fat cola despite the LST. Hard to see in my pics, ill see if i can upload one of it. My waterings are also really hard, but i bought a long-spout watering can that made it much easier. I took a look at your diary and nothing seems too wrong, although the shapes are much different than the way mine grew. Just make sure you're pulling that main top below the other branches when you do the lst, it forces the plant to rush hormones to the branch sites and pump up the other tops. Im doing 24 hours of light and maybe thats why you're a little taller? Also noticed your light is a bit less powerful than mine, im running 450W (advertised) LED

@Mr_Ewell, awesome, they are quality seeds, i had 4/5 germinate, and all 4 very healthy. They are much shorter/smaller than I imagined, but the smell of the buds is heavenly...definitely a sweeter citrus smell. Also, they seem to be very sensitive to this fox farms soil, i have struggled with nute burn from these soils as they are really 'hot.' I would really recommend doing the most research into your soil mix, getting a really mild base, and adding some pearlite plus some dolomite lime for ph stabilization. (i didnt do this and ive continually struggled with soil issues)

@magicUmbrella, cheers! its my first grow and i just found this site, the community seems great
