Or would you think if I have say... 3 Cookies Kush seeds... Pop all 3 and after a couple months of veg .. takes clones and grow out the bushiest looking one and toss the other 2?

Like it or not there’s no quick way to do it. That’s why people hold onto some cuts so strongly.

It all depends on what you are looking for too. If you are looking to hit all the points (hardiness, plant structure, bud structure, vigor, frost, smell, flavor, effects) then you can start tossing out plants pretty early as they grow.

I use to take everything to the end of flower, now I don’t even take everything to flower. A non stellar plant is not worth my time any more. I’ve wasted too much space and time on mediocre plants when I could have been popping more seeds to replace them early on. I also have a plant count I I have to stick to.

I prefer plants with a tighter node structure and stiffer/thicker branches. They tend to scrog the best. You don’t want anything that stretches a bunch and you want to try to finish with around 12” of canopy above the net give or take 2”.

My blueberry on the left ran a little wild on me, I should have turned my lights up earlier into flower so she stretched on me more than my previous run of her about a year and a half ago.

This could have been such a good run if I didn't have so many other issues...

As for the defoliation... at times it seemed uncertain which side was producing better flowers....
I would have to say at this point I think the defoliated area has better, longer flowers and will certainly be much less work to trim... I hate trimming small buds.

They are frosty as fuck though, the flora series definitely produces more visible trichomes, not sure if it is just juice or actually translates into potency. The table is supposed to come down in 5 days. I might give it a few more as it took long to flip in the cold.

Looking pretty good bro

Mine are about 10 days out. This is the first run that I've kept them totally green, by now I'd normally be seeing a lot of yellow (I'm on day 56 right now) and I haven't had a single leaf yellow, so I'm def hoping I dont regret my nitrogen into late flower choice... my buds are looking fantastic tho, looking to be my heaviest run in a while. Debating about just water till the end with as much nutrients are clearly in the plant

 

[HemiSync]

I’m liking what I’m seeing so far. I might get hooked on SCROGing.

 

[growingforfun]

Did 2 waterings of just water no feed am the leaf is lightening up a bit thankfully. Most of the leaf right under the lights went purple in the last 4 days an I'm really wanting to chop em. Day 60 today. I wanted to take em 66 days but it's hard to hold out hahaha
They are putting on weight though the last 3 days like crazy so imma try to just let em ride another few days..

hardest part of the grow for me every time!

Difficult for me as well, which is why I always let the trichs tell me when to cut.

No clue where one is. Just ran outta my own bud yesterday so its dispencery bud this I chop an dry this lol. Lots of motivators for this one to be done

You grab a magnifying glass and find them on the buds. They look something like this:

Lol I know what the trichs are hahah I mean I lost all my magnifiers

I'm not too worried on that angle I'm sure the are in the window of ready to go at 60 days. I cropped this same clone at 56, 60, an 70 days. I'm in the window of it being great smoke but it's just putting on some late weight it didn't do as much of last round. I kept the nitrogen higher and the plant fully green until the very end this time. Assuming the smoke is good then this was a good choice as it's one of my better looking cycles in a while.

Yea I figured it was something like that, I just like to have fun.

I wish I could ever get enough experience with one strain to know when it will be ready and what to expect. This is my first SCROG, not first grow, and I’m having fun with it. Also first time with these nutrients and I’m loving the results so far and it’s a very nitrogen rich mix even in flower so my lady is very green, but healthy looking. Good luck with your harvest.

I'll be cutting tonight I think, I said fuck it an pulled the plug last night after 2 hours of lights on.

I'm one of those "nutjobs" that think a dark period helps at the end. Hahaha

I find they are easier to wet trim after a dark period. I think it stresses them too, which might cause increased resin production. Does it, heck if I know but count me in as one of those nutjobs too.

I run a lot or clones, an most strains I've ran at least 5 times, some clones around 10 times. For me the best run have been with a dark period. I know everyone has differant favorite styles but that's just me.

 

[907guy]

Almost done

 

[ANC]

Fuck yeah, but I do want to defoliate those for you.
I have to say the defoliated plants were the winners in my test.... Al nugs are hard regardless of size, the side with leaves has plenty of soft airy buds that were covered by leaves...

I left those on the plants and are giving them a few more days under light.

I started pushing buds around today and I could not believe how thick the foliage was below the buds, right above the screen. I started cutting a bunch of that out of there. Could have been a real mold haven over the next few weeks. Now to decide how much of the top to defoliate.

What do you think?

She is about 3 weeks from harvest..... I think.

 

[zypheruk]

That close to harvest don't be defoliating any more, she won't appreciate the stress.

 

[ANC]

Yeah, it should have been done earlier... I don't bother much with smaller leaves, but take off all large fan leaves, it makes trimming loads easier.... if low humidity isn't an issue you have to deal with.
It is also pretty easy to just pull them off the plant.

 

[2cent]

Wow what is that strain?
Im lookin for a strain to scrogg as my dina bluecheese went too sativa and ruined my screen im stuck onwhat strain to do yo max out my yield

Im under 1200 2.4mx1.2m scrog in dwc super farmbsystem 200l gwttin 35oz normaly so i wana scrogg and see what i can push.. I did them 8 or so years ago

Now ive no clue
