I have 2 Corning Bake-A-Round bread tubes I use as cool tubes. They mate perfectly with 4" flexible duct and the crimped ends of rigid duct.
I wouldn't pay more than $15 shipped for one. Feebay is littered with them, but some sellers are greedy.
Like Disco said, you can use them passively to provide a standoff between your bulb and plant, or actively with air moving through them.

Any plans on supercropping the plants? or are you just gonna let them go to the top of the cab?

I had a similar situation with my c99 scrog, i had a couple branches stretch up close to the to of the cab, then the stretch stopped. The problem was at that point the buds started forming and they continue growing up a bit as they form/bulk up.

Sounds like my situations. They'll grow to the roof, add an inch and a half and stop, lol. Hell while there at it, they may as well grow out the ass ... kind of like this.

Thanks, Sgt. Stedenko.

That's one twisted sister.

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

... just like papa.

 

[hazydreams]

i wish i would have started doing what you have been doing to that twisted girl earlier in the stretch phase..... i think its too late.

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

Hi, hazydreams. I was lucky with the twisties. The stems weren't hollow.

 

[green.is.good]

Looking very green and healthy Disco!! and fucking monsterous!!! LOL

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

green.is.good, you probably know what I'm in for....

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

day 19 flower - this is the big one

She's got it all up top. The other two females are more even and may be easier to manage. This one is about 2" from the ceiling. Since stems are more manageable than the stalk, I'm sure I'll figure out something weird looking for sure, lol.

11 fingers

- could have aimed a little better

 

[BC Chronic]

That is the coolest plant I've ever seen..did you cut the little side shoots or did it just ( with your help ) grow that way? the tall one...
11 finger leaf...nice pic of it too..you are an inspiration DiscoBiscuit!!

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

Likewise, BC. I'll give credit where credit is due, the breeder and the genes. I culled the primary fans and that's it. I could cull the first node but don't want to encourage stretch. Will see what happens in the next week to 10 days before I take em. I got the pH close enough this time to make it easy. I'm feeding ~750ppm on the .5 scale. Drawing ~600 runoff so she may be nibbling more than sipping. I'm reluctant to hammer em with nutes, they'd want a room, lol.

If I have to train, I might tie two stems in a circle to gain headroom. I also thought about bending each tall pair downward to the stalk and securing with a tie, allowing the tips to curl upward. I'll probably do whatever creates less girth. I know it sounds stressful, I'll have to use care. I don't think it'll be anywhere near as stressful as the Merlin's Magic. Those were some tough birds.

I see this strain in one of those room-size vertical grows. It's a natural for something like that. Ought to rock in horizontal setups as well, most everything is in the effective light range. Even for a 150. Maybe these little bottles will help keep things manageable.

 

[Sgt.Stedenko]

Hey Disco,
Looking very nice. That first girl is all legs.
I was thinking she looked like a perfect candidate for vert grow before I read your post. Great minds think alike. lol
Hopefully, the stretch is almost over and you dont have to resort to too much training. Does this strain hermie under stress?
Later my brother from another mother.

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

Hey Sarge. Pinching the stalk was probably a bad idea. I'll top in the future. Not familiar with the strain. I'm guessing it'll take 77 to 84 days. Thanks, I'll keep additional stress to a minimum.

I'm thinking it's a good candidate for a horizontal scrog too. It's a fast grower and nodes would be much closer under the screen.

 

[green.is.good]

green.is.good, you probably know what I'm in for....

Yea disco ive got a good idea

 

[redspaghetti]

damn disco what the hell are you feeding these things? monster arent even the right words for em man, either you got those green thumbs or your thumbs are really green ahaha

now we wait for the fun parts lol

cheer disco!

 

[Chomp]

15 days flower...

Funny... we have the same exact bed; I took the water out of mine!

Are all your plants sexed yet? I have a Mazar-i-Sharif that is taking forever to show 18 days of 12/12 and counting for me...

Great grow so far man!
Chomp

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

Hiya red. I'm lucky, these are easy to grow. My breeder buddy has been right all along. He said 12/12 from seed might be the best for my setup. Also said I'd cut em and cut em again. Looks like he's batting a thousand.

Chomp, here's what I've got so far.

22 days flower...

3 males culled - might have one more

2 females

1 not showing yet

I guess all the trimming has slowed things down a little

 

[BC Chronic]

You are right Disco...those plants would rock in a vertical setup....beautiful strain...you could get 1-2 foot colas:yay:..
I think I hurt more than the plant when I have to bend/twist them...lol...
talk to you soon bro

 

[TB Gardens]

hey DB, looking good as usual!

 

[DiscoBiscuit]

How's it going, TB Gardens? Thanks for stopping by.
