Looks good mate.
Do you have to do much defoliation with your grows? I notice you like to pack em in like sardines. I know some people who like to take off quite a lot of greenery, and some who take off next to nowt. My rule of thumb has been; if it covers a bud, it comes off...what about you?
Peace.
 
i try not to take healthy leaf off plants have evolved for millions of years to have leafs so the there for a reason i have took leafs of in the past but didn't notice any difference

Yeah, it's wierd isn't it. There's such a variation in opinion on defoliation, even amongst those who I'd consider experienced/skillful ganja farmers.
Variety is the spice, eh...

i've tried both ways of growing and can't really tell much difference myself . each to there own but unless it can't be bent out of the way i leave as many leaves on as possible

Mate you are a glorious beacon of light....at least that's what your Rep says.:)

True for me too. I always see if I can tuck them into the screen somewhere! If they pop back out, off they come. I think a scrog needs less defoliation anyway, as in theory, everything should be at canopy level. I s'pose you'd need to take more if growing bigger bushes, to allow a little more penetration to lower budsites/lower parts of bigger buds?

Edit: sorry to hijack your thread alwaystoned...hope you don't mind the off-topicness.

Good job alwaystoned 1,
Ive been searching for a quick finisher, currently working with C99 but SSH would be nice.
How many seeds did you germ before you found the 8 week pheno?

i found her from 40 seeds i popped hows the c99 always wanted to try her

Its the most prettiest looking plant Ive grow, as she matures she takes on a fruity scent & then turn into a sweet zesty tangy pineapple smell. The flavour, taste & smell can be appreciated further if cured for at least a week.
It yield nearly 1GPW if grown correctly, Ive grown her in soil & hydro & I must say in order to feel the full effect of C99 it needs to be grown in soil. Finishes in 7 weeks but I prefer to let it go for 8 weeks.
 
sounds ace need to find her lol ive had a gpw of this ssh in soil never tried her in hydro think she could easily pass the gpw mark in perfect conditions trying her with flower dragon boost this time i got a free tester bottle normally just use ionic boost cause its nice and cheap and does the job
