Pr0n time!
Pr0n time!
Ok guyzz - pics time, woot! Before the bud pr0n, a few answers:
Hash-> leaves removed for light penetration, airflow, space constraints. If a plant gets bigleafed during veg, it doesnt really shock em at all in bloom, u just have to drop the ec a touch after doing it or u get a lil burn. The plants need energy, yes - but its amazing how little the big shade leaves actually make in the way of sugar. Removing the leaves strategically has made my buds much bigger in the past. I dont know if its hormones or what, it seems to have more to do with promoting fat branches and strong nodes. This method helps prevent popcorn buds. Everybody should do what they like, I like to do it, if i was outdoor with a buncha plants, i dont know if it would be worth the work. removed leaves about 21-25 days in, dont remember exact date, but i had also done it 1 week in and 2x in veg. Now they are about 5 weeks.
GS-> Yup, evidence is compelling, good DF strategies have become much more commonplace. Ed's train of thought scared a lotta ppl from DF for a long time. Can't wait huh? Well, wait no longer... PICS!!:
Wide shots
Closeups
Hope u enjoy em, I am thouroughly!
Later on allz, hopeur all as high as I am right now ^.^

cheers

Sup G? 
Looking really frosty man, gonna be some good weight.,
The DF has done me right so far, I like the size and density that I have at day 24. I keep lowering my lights to see what the plants can take and they are getting bigger lower as I move it (It seems)
Anyways, looking really good, can't wai to see i progress
Cheers

BS - Thanks man, yeah, they gettin frosty ^.^ sticky gooey, residuey. Buds gettin nice n fat, wish I had done more DF, gonna have some popcorn, but im pretty sure im gonna beat my last yield by a signifigant margin.
GS - Word, thx 4 the kind words. I love the DF, I wanna pull more off but im worried about 2 much stress at this point in bloom. I'm about 5.5 weeks into 12/12 gonna start flushing in the next couple weeks, prolly gonna finish around 9ish, did well last time. I think im gonna top-chop again this time and let the bottoms go 3 more days with the lights lowered when I get to harvest time. I'm gonna do molasses this time, do u use it? Any tips if u do? Glad 2 see ya in here, gotta go peep da sanc.
More pics, tonight... too pretty not to photo them.

Hey IS, glad u made it ^.^ plenty-o-buckets 2 go around. Thanks 4 the kind words.
Hell yeah KW ^.^ actually just made a nice fat glob of ISO oil outta my last round of GDP trim... help me make it thru the home stretch waitin for the new round. Macros... I can't do real macros, but I can do ghetto macros ^.^ Got a decent point n shoot, just have 2 bring the tripod in, shut off the fan and use manual focus. I may take some 2night ;-) I just wish it was easier for me to move them around so I could get a non hps pic... my color corrections are ok, but cant beat the real thing. Course, it always makes it a special surprise when they get chopped, just how purty they get...
GS -> Thanks bro, I wish I could describe the smell... its just... happiness.

Yo lazy, thanks, I dunno what cross u had, but mine is from an original cut, and it vegges pretty quick for me... actually wish I had flipped em a week earlier, oh well. My yield was just over 1LB/1000w, but I didnt have them in big enough containers and I had a mixed crop w/uneven canopy. I'm hoping 2 do better this time. I gotta stick with it, The clubs her fuckin love it and will take whatever amount i can bring. She soooo tasty. I been thinkin bout gettin some of DG's strains and huntin for a good mom... ever grown any of hers?
I see ur into the blumats, i been thinkin bout goin that route, would have to reconfigure resi though... wouldnt b 2 hard. Think its worth the effort?

Argh.... borg spotted.
Argh.... borg spotted.
SO I was pokin around in there tonight, and I found one branch that had a node with several spider mites crawlin on it, heavily stippled leaves... No coccoon on the buds, but shitty nonetheless, trichs are just barely cloudy. I shouldnt have, but I really dont want them to spread, so I chopped the branch, hopefully it dont stress her too much... got some good pics, after I flushed the affected leaves.
Gonna start flushin very soon.
meh...
