Wait, what!? From your grow journal I read that you're only at the end of 3 weeks of flowering? What kind of genetics are you running there? My plants at the end of 3 weeks are usually in the fluffy cute "budlet" stage. That's insane.

FYI... I adjusted journal to actual weeks since flip. I was misinformed about what actual weeks they where.
Thanks for the good info...

Not a problem. I always assumed 4 weeks in flower was the same as 4 weeks from flip to 12/12, but the "weed lexicon" isn't officialised yet everywhere. lol

The thing I really wanted to discuss was your genetics (seed source). The reason I ask is because I've grown what was supposedly OG twice. One time is was just like yours; same bud structure with "Indica" characteristics. The next time I grew them was more recently, but branded as "Bakerstreet" from Tweed sold by the Ontario government. They had every mutation you could think of: 1 trifoliate, 3 fasciated (2 on one, 1 on other), 2 cases of buds growing out the middle of fan leaves, and the leaves were all twisted and weird. It also stretched nearly 3 times as large upon 12/12, and took a full 14 weeks from flip to finish. The flower structure looked like a sativa landrace - like a foxtail from the start on every flower on the plant lower to top. lol

Some of the colas were as big around as quart mason jars, but were mostly made out of air. I don't think those were OG Kush seeds. Damn government, can't get anything right... even strains of cannabis!

Great looking plants by the way! Looks like you don't need any help ;)

time to learn about drying and curing that is acrtually the most important part if you mess that up you will be smoking hay the girls look awasome so best of luck heres a tip dry them slowly in the dark 62 rh at least a week but before the branches actually snap

I'd get better lighting for flower. That light may have veg'd them fine, but it's not enough to get you some nice buds in that space.

Yeah looks like the light is probably less than two hundred true watts. If you flower with it your nugs will be small ish and growth not super substantial. Ive seen people do it with less but they weren't stoked with the results

Flipping is grower preference and usually depends on grow area available. Yours area appears to be mostly full and I agree that you are gonna need more light for that much weed...

guess it will double in height after flipping and flip according to what you want the final height to be. if you wind up being wrong, do it different next time.
