They aren't in flowering stage yet, my climate controller had a short circuit over the weekend and it stopped working. They got only a few hours of light that day. I also had to stop the air extractor a few times as it was working at max. power,5000m3/h.II got the new tools today and I've fixed the problem. I ll post some new pics by tomorrow, it s a mini jungle in there :)

Yes Doc :) the fan has 950W and only it's contact point stopped working. I got a powerfull controller separate for the fan, it should fix the problem. Here are some pics from today.

not sure about the pistil thing. I would check all the obvious stuff like light leaks and stuff. i accidentally stepped on the side of my timer without noticing, screwing up the 12/12 cycle. luckily i caught it before i did damage. i mainly wanted to comment on the very nice looking grow! that room is perrrty.

I am on day 17 of flowering, today I cutted almost everything from the lower half of a few plants, I want to see how they go in the next days. The lower part It's not getting light anymore. I've read in many places that it s ok to snip off almost everything under 1/3 of the plants. I will post some pics tomorrow.

This is day 20 of flowering, yesterday I got a new light, an Optic 6 COB led 3000k and 5000k. You can observe in the photo it gives way more light.
I cutted the lower part from 50-60% of the plants, I was wondering if I can cut the fan leaves from the third row of each plant also, those leaves cover their neighbour's buds.1.jpg2.jpg3.jpg4.jpg

It's day 28 of flowering,I have attached a few photos. Comparing with photos from other grow diaries, the buds seem to look smaller than usual for this period. Anyway, as it is my first grow I would be happy if I can get close to 200g dried/m2. I have 80 plants on 5 m2. Amnesia is between 60-80cm long, while the others are at 40-60cm.

@Gond00s I have 3x615w and 3x420w lets, it's 3100w from the wall. They say the Optic 6 is superior to a 600w hps light. I don't know what to say about Bestva yet, I'll try to provide a feedback at the end. I got a Betsva Elite 2000w also, the light is more intense and it's dimmable.

If you're up to the task, I'd chop every single fan leaf. Maybe leave lowest 2 sets.
But imo/ime sog benefits from heavy defoliating. Also if you didn't lollipop yet. You still have time!!!

looks very normal and healthy to me. some plants are late starters but strong finishers. this doesn't even look one of those late starters though
