Loving the look of that cola Limey. Did that take off towards the end or was the growth for that quite consistant?? My biggest cola is currently 23cms big through nearly six weeks.
Awaiting more pictures.
Hi MG
the big cola established its length quite early on, I guess it didn't grow significantly length-wise from about day 40 in 12/12. It did fatten up ALOT in the last few weeks though. So much so, in fact, that I began to worry (justifiably, as it turned out) about mould. I would guess that your will end up at about 30-35cm long and be quite fat.
Bear in mind that I took a slightly different approach and trimmed off the branches from the lower 1/3rd of my plants, so they almost inevitably stacked up more up top. that's because of my floor space restrictions. What you lose from your cola you may well gain down below. At 6 weeks into flowering though, don't do anything drastic with yours - stick with the approach you have taken as major clipping at that stage could really stress out the plants, which (at best) will reduce yields and may (at worst) spark off hermaphroditism. Perhaps though worth getting under your canopy and clipping off any growth nodes/buds that are really small and, being shaded and low down, unlikely to produce much (you can always process the cuts into butter or BHO if you go in for that sort of thing, so it's not a total waste). Be very conservative though: I wouldn't cut off anything of any size.
