Nice towers. Just be on the lookout for dildo baggins. He likes to snatch up frosty nuggets. I'm getting ready to pull my first vert run next tuesday-I can't wait......
chop coming this week sometime....
still nothing but straight water for nearly 2 full weeks now.

couple pics of towers pre-harvest:
mid tower plant, extra stinky this on is for some reason...

Uncut plant, in base pot, PINK pheno flo x grimm, lookin sexy, smelling like strawberry ice cream juicy-ness:

Plant numbers dictate yield......period.....If yas can stack them cup towers side by side close enough to create that perfect sideways canopy with no holes , then yas`re headed down the faster path to Nirvana.....
Many ways ta skin a mule and all setups take tweakin , so if yas`re set up to run buncha plantlets/budsicles by end of cycle then handle it.....
Just think how many yogurt cup fully rooted cuts immediately flipped 12/12 yas could set on shelves/racks with stacked bulbs FTW......lol.....
Budsicles baybeee....
.......or crop circles/weed donuts.......matters not......just....whatever direction yas finally focus on.....
Keep dialin my buddy......
Peace....Freds.....

of 5 towers, 2 of them had a similar issue with the second cup down from the top, both lower yielding and leaves were more "dead" than yellowing....
this is something im thinking is related to the molecule weight problem bobblehead pointed out waaaay back when the design was being talked about and first put together, then he reminded me of it in this post:
aside from the slight yellowing i noticed mid flowering...
this 2nd cup from the top die out is pretty noticeable in finished bud size and smell (greener than dank).
BUT
only on 2 towers, other 3 are nice top to bottom, all yellowed out nicely as nutes were taken away, but leaves aren't DEAD.

I hear ya....
plant count dictates yield, FTW rule #... top ten somwhere right DHF? colosseum growing at least def.
alas....
not trying to be contrary.... but
with these larger cups.
i think i could hit higher yields veg longer than with budsicles
similar to how i did this run, but train LESS maybe.... and add a tower or 3 to the mix and really cram them in there....
seems like the lesser trained towers did a lil better, and i maybe took out a lil TOO much under growth... considering even lil "popcorn" buds of this chunky D are dense and not super tiny either.
i think running budsicles has got to be strain dependent.....
just like what im talking about could possibly work well w this chunky D.
^^^ one of 2 or 3 top colas off a chunky D top up plant...
just seems like growing 3 of these on one plant is gonna do better than growing one per plant.
then again, i'd have to do 3 or 4 x as many cups, prolly in smaller cups even.... and we are back where we started w plant count dictates yeild....
and the plants i have lined up for next towers are all Flo, so.... exp w the chunky twisty towers is out the window now, new strain new rules , eh?
and
next run i think i gonna be 2 towers and 3 or so "trees" to compare to the towers....
kinda like Jblez was doin in his (now dead're'n hell) thread.
wonder what ole j & D are up to....
focus avi.
^ ^ ^ ^not part of the twisty towers, but shared the space, got fed the same, 3 lil plants from seed, kickdown from sum1.... the mystery bucket.
^ ^ ^ ^ "blue" pheno of my flo x ogkush cross, grown in a base pot from one of the towers, smells very grapey, has an ogk plant structure, distinct rounded buds, like golf balls, unlike other spire shaped buds from this cross, a different expression for sure!
