Flowering @ day 11
WHAT A JUNGLE
they all showed white hairs, confirmed girls here
the stretch of 2 of those plants DOES NOT stop. now you can really see the different phenos.
PC1 (upper left) is total sativa pheno, even tho she got topping 2 days before flowering, she stretched and still stretching a lot. and her leaves are really more sativa.
PC2 (lower left) - no tipping performed. she is huge! ton of side branches and she is really tall as well.
PC3 (upper right) tipping performed 1 day before switching to flower which probably affected her, but she got the biggest leaves and stems out of all. also she is the only one that has no cannabis smell at all, only "green" smell.
PC4(lower right) is the plant that had the most issues from day 0, everyone got the same conditions but only PC4 had problems. anyway she didn't got tipping or LST, she is really short but with ton of side branches. unless this plant have something special about the flowers (yield/quality) I would consider this as poor pheno.
should I note that they drink 8L/plant every 3 days? and that's when I allow the top soil to dry a little bit.

PC#1 and 2 are way more developed than the rest, PC#4 is really slow.
currently I see no reason to fert. PC#1 suffer from a little cal-mag def, will be fixed. but everything else is 100% perfect

Hard to judge peoples cameras, but they look a bit on the light green side.
You can pretty much bank on plants doubling in size after 12/12. Probably more. It's a good idea to expect that doubling in width terms, to fill a space. After it's filled, further stretch is upwards. Often undesireable. They will settle in a few more days. They slow after two weeks, and stop around 18-21 days with typical 8-10 week plants.

YES! that's totally true, they are in dense and small space and each one of them is big. they are in fight for space.
I also saw research that said that cannabis plants tend to stretch more when the leaves touch other plants, that indicate competition so they stretch.
I didn't mean it to be like that, but I guess it's better than wasting space.
nah that's the lights. the plants are totally healthy green from bottom to top, with the only exception being is PC#1 (the plant in the upper left corner) which have cal-mag deficiency, and she get 1ml/liter cal-mag, gonna increase it to 1.5.
they all have osmocote in their soil, which is controlled release fertilizer. I expect it to be enough for 2 weeks if not more, and when (and IF) i will give actual nutrients, it will be in much lower dose than usual.
this osmocote is designed for 6 month period, so they WILL get some nutrients till the end. it's all matter of will it be enough.
in my previous grow, this osmocote got a plant to harvest with only cal-mag, and the leaves were green even at late flowering.
about the stretch, I hope they stop soon.
Maybe you're right, but smaller girls suffer. I think when they bloom, maybe they still prefer to have more room to spread out.

Flowering @ day 17 @ PC#2 is HERM!
sadly, PC#2 is herm. I'm still considering what to do with her, It's a tough choice!
from one side - she is the biggest, fastest, easiest, smelliest plant in the tent. she is like twice the size of PC#1 (which was 2.5 weeks more in veg), and she is developing so fast!
from other side, she will make this tent full of seeds.
I have no good place to put PC#2. if not in the tent, she will be on the balcony where she will get 2-3 hours of light per day, and will go into re-veg probably. and even when flowering she will have mold risk as the humidity here is 100% half of the time.
hard choice. such a bummerI'm leaning torwards letting her stay in the tent and what will be will be.

It is indeed a difficult choice. Whether you choose to keep them together or not, we hope you will continue to share their growth, and we look forward to seeing their final results.🫡

PC#1 is currently the frostiest. still not week 3 and there are visible trichomes (picture added, near the fan)
PC#2 is the biggest and probably heavy yielder, but she is herm! I'm probably gonna let her make this tent full of seeds, when I do my risk-benefit ratio. it seems to me that getting her out would lead to pretty much the same results as letting her stay in term of total yield. also - I grow for my personal head, so It's probably gonna be fine
PC#3 is catching up
PC#4 is slowest as always, and also suspected hermi
currently I remove each ball I find on PC#1 with intention to prevent pollination as far as I can (and I know that there will be SOME, even alot)
damn, if not those hermies, this was the a tent of perfection
added here also bottom photos to get the real leaves color, they are all dark green, but when you take pictures some seem yellower than the others (lighting..)

the hermi (PC#2) seems like stopped putting male balls. I just can't find any after I removed 2 day ago.

the smell is already too much, I bought another carbon filter and fan and placed them outside the tent.
the overall tent smell is skunky as hell. pure skunk. pineapple? nah bro, REEKING skunk
they are all green. not even 1 yellowing leaf/sign of any nute problem. so the Osmocote is defintly a magic!
sorry on the bad night photos, my phone have bad camera...gonna replace it soon.
BTW about PC#2 (the biggest plant with the biggest cola) which is hermi, I think she is false hermi? there are balls, but no pollen/sign of pollination whatsoever. I remove balls anyway, but it seems like the male parts of her are not fertile. I didn't see any pollen anywhere.
already looking forward for the harvest, probably 4-5 weeks, gonna aim for 10 weeks to make sure they are ripe.

perhaps it's an sterile hermie ?
possible ...
if not you should probably have red hairs , wich is a sign of seeds in formation ...
anyway i did smoke the pineaplle chunk at barney' s coffeeshop in 2010's years and was really excellent ,
eager to see your results .

I did saw little bit of red hairs at the plant himself, but at a really low count, I can actually count the red hairs on one hand.perhaps it's an sterile hermie ?

anyway I'm not afraid of some seeds, she seem either a streile hermie or very very close to it, otherwise I guess the whole tent was pollinated, while I didn't found a single red hair on anybody except the hermi.

nice ,
so just keep cool and make them grow ,
perhaps few seeds but not so much ,
eager to see what you will get for those seeds , some great taste and effect in this line !

PC#1 is also a hermi, with huge balls spotted near female part
if it was only PC#2 I can accept it
but 2/4 seeds hermi? dafuq is going on barneys...I hope the results worth it.
PC#1 was all the way in the 100% optimal condition. no exceptions. so this is genetic hermi 100% (also the balls are from the bottom nodes up, not single branch or something

Flowering @ Week 5
Some updates:
* PC#1 and PC#2 are hermies. and probably sterile hermies (no pollen found, even in and near open sacks), and no sign of any pollination
* all the plants have been diagnosed with some specie of Fusarium fungus (by lab), I did everything I can to prevent the fungus from thriving, and it seem to work as the fungus does not spread anywhere
Smell wise:
overall intense, skunky
PC#1 fruity and skunky
PC#2 mainly skunky
PC#3 actually smell totally different from everyone, but I can't describe the smell. sweet
PC#4 smell is like PC#1
Grow wise:
night temps are about 17-18 Celsius. yeah a little low but that's to keep the RH low (AC)
RH is never above 55%, and usually float at 45-50.
the flowers are inside wind tunnel with fans all over them, even at the soil level I have 4 fans. so RH is probably much much lower.
PC#1 (upper left corner in the photos, at the end of the tent) - is 100% the frostiest out of them all and by far, seems way more leafy then everyone else, but the buds look the best.
she is hermie.but no pollen found
PC#2 (lower left corner closest to the camera, with the donkey dick) - is by far the fastest to flower and seem like a BIG yielder, look at that donkey dick only at week 5. the flowers on her also mature quite fast, this girl also have slight purple notes on the flowers.
oh and she is hermie. but no pollen found
PC#3 (upper right, right corner) - is weird. everything look different from the rest of them, including the flowers. she is doing great, this pheno seems to be a good yielder as well, but with longer flowering.
PC#4(lower right corner) - is a late bloomer, she threw her first white hairs only at week 3 (!) of flowering, but since then - she is maturing really fast, and would probably get in sync with everyone soon. this girl also have slight purple notes on the flowers
Fertilization:
They have enough osmocote in their soil to avoid typical nutrients, that's an amazing thing for lazy guys like me. all of them are 100% green from bottom to top (apart from the fungus part), and the lighting of the camera make it look not great.
they do get Cal-Mag, at 1-1.5ml/Liter, every watering.
I water every two days until drainage, something like 2.5-3.5 Liters each per 2 days.
I'm aiming for 10 weeks at flower, even 11 if it will seems right, so this is the end of the first half!
PC#2 Donkey dick got fan right at him.
PC#2 AS WELL
PC#1 (THE FROSTY)
PC#3 (THE WEIRD)
PC#4 (THE LATE BLOOMER)
CHEERS!

everything goes 100% right. buds are maturing, frostiness is amazing and smell is intense.
PC#4 will defintly need a extra week or two above the others.
and some nice purpling is going on, the night temps are 16 Celsius

Nice grow @vladimir882, you're growing some fine bud. I have 5 different tents. I run a QB135 rpec light in one of my 2'x2'x4' tents,so similar to your light. I also have the QB135 bspec for veg. I run one plant in my 2x2 in living organic soil in a 10 gallon pot. I made a stand the height of my 10 gallon pot and cut a hole in the tent bottom. The pot rim overlaps the floor cut out so I have no light leaks. I'll post a picture as it may be something you would be interested in trying. I gained 12" of space inside the tent. I train my plants using an augmented mainline. I pull an average of 4-5 ounces per cycle depending on the strain I grow.
