hey man. lookin good. what kinda lighting? looks like you might want to try to train the tops a little more to try and get a more even canopy.. thats what scrog is all about. lookin good tho, very healthy.
Yeah this is kind of an emergancy flower situation(personal stash is extreamly low).Normally i would have let them grow much higher(3 feet is my norm), no matter the dutchtreatXNL cross(from seed) will be ready for cloning for next round!!!
I am going to train much more next go....Its so cool!!
Lighting, Brand New - 1000 Hortilux HPS. Working so far!!
Tap water ~220 starting ppm
GH - 3part 123 formula
havent changed the Rez once so far
temps(top = Rez temp, Bottom = Room Temp)

Some updated shots of the ladies... Looking good..I took a pic of the stalk on the one plant.
hydroenzyme helps, they are drinking more water since adding it, so this is good. PH has been so stable this round im almost in shock.. Next round, prune more and nail that netting out onto a frame.
PPM ~1000
PH ~ 6.0
Hortilux 1000HPS kicking some ass
Zero water changes, 1 week into Flower

Everything is GRAVEY, was in checking on the DTXNL cross clones tonight.... looks like i have a male, damnmit. Ill wait a few more days but im 90% sure its showing male.. The other clone didnt do as well in 12/12, but looks like it has some preflowers showing, it will definatly need a few more days to be sure.

its all looking good bro...
can i ask u got any osolating fans?
i use 2.
1x12" - below the cannopy blowing air up threw leaves/buds
1x8" - blowing straight at my light..
only problem i found with my scrog was high levels of Humidity
used to be
60%-75%RH with a room temp of 27c/ rez temp 16c.
now since i put a fan on top, and ALSO below my netting. its all alot better
35%-45%RH with a room temp of 26c/ rez temp 16c.
since i lowered the RH. my buds r frosting over (and trcks are cloudy from week 3)
so just watch for high RH, can also lead to mould, bud rot....
but its all looking sweet bro..
nice, fresh and def Gr33n.
keep us/me posted.
Kudos
Ps
i also LST my plants then scrog em.
(Low Stress Train)
you'll find it makes em easier to train, and keep even canopy.
but it can get very dence.
you need a frame for the net also.
i just used 1-1/2" black piping. (and 4x1-1/2" elbows)
then just attached a small bracket. so after i can lift it up.
or lock it down in place....

Yes i have one fan blowing at the top hahlf of the netting. The light is in a air cooled hood. exhaust vents both the hood and the room. RH seems good this round no sign of powdery mildew at all this round.Has been a minor problem in the past.Never really a major issue though.
A frame is in the works for next go. I literally tacked this down at the last minute.
Thanks for checking in Mr GR33N. plenty of updates to come.

Thanks for checking in VT!! Yeah they really filled in the room nicely. Always learning. My last round was good, but i was still tweaking the trays, and dealing with room design. This round should prove to be very rewarding, everything is perfect this go.
Some guys go nuts with pruning. I for one leave my plant the hell alone . once they are in bud. I do nothing but stare at them wishing they were done.I think i will try your idea on the fan leaves, I need all the healthy leaves i can get for the final stages of flower(when they naturally start dieing)
