Nice job. Looking very frosty! Are you sure you aren't sand bagging us, and this is actually your 5th or 6th year of growing? My first grow yielded some decent bud, but it was the plant's miraculous ability to survive abuse, that got me there :) Yours are thriving!
Are you planning to hit them with a bloom booster of any kind? I have had visible, repeatable results with powdered Kool Bloom, at 1/4 tsp per gallon. I hit them at week 5-6, and then discontinue.
I reread your thread, and I'm still not sure what you are growing in?? Is that coco drain to waste, hempy buckets, or??
Whatever the system ,it sure seems to work. I look forward to your updates, as I just picked up a 5x5 tent, and I have 3 clones ready to go in, that have been languishing in my veg cab for a month. This thread is excellent motivation!
Regards

Languishing in veg, that's what my plants were doing. I thought they were thriving but I think I retarded the plant's growth during the end of veg and the beginning of flower. As veg came to a close my winding and weaving the plant through the scrog became more dramatic. Instead of just stretching the plant out I was taking main colas which were too talk and bending them down under the screen. When I flipped them they stretched a lot more than I was expecting and I was forced to do more of that cola destroying tuck and weave.

Apparently aggressive weaving is just a punishing to the plants 'mojo' as topping, forcing the plant to readjust and whatnot. So I certainly lost some large colas, quality buds, and weight to overvegging, poor training/pruning, and late training.

Anyway, do better than I and get that tent set up!

well done opek, let's know your dry weight, goodluck

:thank you: I can only hope it works out well. I don't need to look at too many grows to see I'm not going to even approach 1gpw. As I progress my errors are becoming more and more apparent and I really feel I can do a much better job with this first round under my belt. I want to a million different things to make my setup better, but I kind of want to see if I can hit 1gpw with the horizontal setup I have now. :tumbleweed:
