Thanks figgy!
Wow those did stretch grandpapy. I've topped quite a bit so the stretch should be a little less, I could handle 3x stretch if it does happen though since they are only 12" now. It would be cutting it close though

Flowering starts today!
Here's a slide show of the veg cycle, 18 or 19 days I think.
They are avg 15" tall. Very viney weak limbs except for the super cropped limbs. They NEED support, at least in my system. I put the hps bulb in and have put the scrog screen up for support.
I have now switched to maxi series for nutes. First 2 weeks or so is a mix of maxigrow and maxibloom, protekt, Epsom and calmag. Pool shock for sterile maintenance.
I've never used maxi series so wish me luck, I'm mixing if by what my heart says and will see how plants react.
Any questions, feel free to ask.

Thanks for joining dirtyNerd!
So far the plants aren't shocked or anything from the new nute soup so I think all will go smooth. I decided I'll be flooding the buckets 1x every hour lights on and every 4 hours during lights off. I think it's impossible to flood too often in this set up with no medium so I figure why not as flood as much as possible.
ppm- 860 / 1.25ec
ph- drifting between 5.6 and 6.0

Hell yeah dude! That's awesome! I hope I can pull a couple, my head is telling me it'll happen. I just got finished spacing each top through the scrog net to clean it up a little more, cut some leaves in 1/2 because there are TONS of tops 5" below the bigger tops. 80% of the screen has a top already and if those lower tops make it through there's gonna be like 150 tops or more, it's insane how these things grow. The scrog net is 3.5'x 3.5' so I'm trying to keep most of it inside that footprint for the most bang for the buck.

Rite on!
Hey, you gonna keep those other flavors in that tent also? Flower them also in the tent?

Nah, I don't want to risk any hermies in there since I've not run any of them yet, I just put them in the veg room for now and will probably flower em in the 3x3 soon. Throw the 3x3 in the garage since it's only a 400w and that'll prevent any mishaps

Do you already have a trellis made? Cause I would make it 4'x4' personally

It's a premade secret jarden net and it doesn't stretch any farther unfortunately, but there are tops outside of the net around the perimiter so I think it'll be much closer to 4x4 after the stretch. I plant to just tie those branches to the outside of the net for support to hold em up. The net is completely full though except a few branches that won't bend a certain way lol

I hate to burst any bubbles but gorilla glue isnt a high yielder at all. You wont get any colas over 6 inches and thats the main ones. but the plant also wont work extremely well when it hasnt been cleaned up. It will produce hairy buds with little density. Ill give you a side by side here shortly.

My buddy and other gg4 growers are all clearing a gpw, the glue has serious potential for sure but would like to see some side by sides for sure

For me gorilla glue is an excellent yielder. Not enormous colas but def not small! I get dense, chunky, fat, frosty nugs off mine. Oh and STANKY. Almost zero fluff...of course you have to clean her up down low but that's pretty standard. And they're the exact opposite of hairy...matter of fact all the hairs seem to recede into the calyxs and completely disappear by the time she's ripe.

Right on worm! That's the same reports I've been getting about the glue as well, I know she'll yield killer, she grows extremely well when trained. Here's a pic from today 3 days into flower, there's no way I'll get less than 1.5 off her for my first round with it. I'm looking forward to the flowering

More than agreed. But im meaning if they dont clean up they will be that way. Mine grows just as youve Explaimed. But i wouldnt say its a standard. Half the people when u say cut a leaf they freak out haha

You'll love it brother. The smell and flavor is what really make it a knockout strain in my opinion. I have a net of the glue and a net of blue dream fillin out right now. I am subbed up for this. If you'd like to get a good idea of what she'll start to look like check out greengenes garden. He has like 15-20 of them over a month into flower in coco.Right on worm!
