Missed the last update Bro....Looks like that light yo-yo`s gonna keep lower flarf from bein an issue , and increase bottom line yields come harvey.......and yeah....

With the plants against the wall with branches bein moved sideways ta fill in the canopy keeps the plants from havin ta be butchered on the backside and prevents plant shock/recovery time for the greater good end results....

All in all , I gotta say shit`s real closeta bein all it can be in yer lil space Marlo....Wayta recognize and adapt.....definite signs of experience and knowledge takin over from sein how previous runs can be upgraded for max results in minimum sq ftg......

Take care and good luck Diesel Don.....

Peace....DHF....:ying:.....

Its gettin there Fred. I'm already takin notes as to how I can improve this run.

1.....Less plants. Next run will be 7 big girls in 3.4 gal Airpots.
2.....Top clones early to induce more tops. I want these babies to look like menorah's against the wall.
3.....5 of the 7 plants will be from clone. Much easier to plan for success.


Nuff talk. Pics.

These Sour Bub's will not be here for the next run. Their growth profile doesn't fit this style of growing at all. Having them in the back doesn't help either, bcus I can't trim them like I need to. Not to mention I'm not very much of a indica lover. i will keep a clone of my lime pheno SB. Can't let her go yet. :)

You can see in the pics the SD side is experiencing some crowding towards the middle of the room. One too many plants on that side.

Experience is the best teacher. Learn and adapt right Fred?

They're not for vert, but you're gonna love how those Sour Bubs smoke bro! It's one of my favs! As the Diesel Don, you already know what you're looking for... ha ha... :) I can't wait to load my pod up with some Strawberry Diesel... yum...

Anyway, killer job as always bro. The buds are definitely looking evenly developed... Can't wait to see how they finish up.

Yea, the Sour Bub is some great smoke. I'm probly gonna hang on to my lime pheno SB....I just don't plan on runnin it again for a while. Indica doms always put me to sleep. This other one I have going from seed is long and lanky with the smallest buds I've seen in a while. She won't be comin back.
I promise you will love that Strawberry D. Find the right pheno, and you'll be hooked bro.


The room is going smooth. Yield is looking pretty good, but there are some less productive areas that will be eliminated next run.
SFS #9 is a low producer. I don't think her root system ever took off. She drinks far less than any other plant in the room.
The SB in the back left is a disappointment. Big node spacing with tiny buds, and lots of fan leaves. I've thought about yanking her early and spreading the others out for the last 20+ days....

Other than that, its pretty nice in there. The SD IBL side is looking productive. A bit crowded, but it doesn't seem to be a problem. The SFS is half and half. #5,#6,#7 are tall plants, nice buds from top to bottom. Excellent vert plants imo. #8,#9 are not so productive. Overall, its going well. I expected these issues running from seed.
Still pretty amazed at how few fan leaves I have removed up to this point. I see some popcorn I should have removed, but I wanted to see how the mover would affect the lower popcorn. It definitely helped. I think it will help more if I use from the start instead of a few weeks into flower. The stretch was jsut about done when I put the mover in. We'll see next run.

All pics are day 54. They were fed for the last time. Straight water until day 75+. Sb's will be yanked before then tho.

wow thats a long ole flush Marlo do you notice a difference in your bud flushing that long?

i mean i know you dont grow for yield but you could pack some extra weight on with some good late PK Boosters...

Since I grow in 50/50 soil/coco mix, I still have to do a fairly long flush to end up with nice yellow plants. I'm not a fan of green plants at harvest, and it takes a while for my girls to get there.
I do use bloom boosters at varying stages. But nothing for the last 20 or so days. I still expect them to swell a bit more. They usually do..
