OOoh! SLH! I love Greenhouse Genetics. A grower's dream. I have some Super Lemon Haze seeds for my next batch of mothers. If you really like this strain, I suggest you check out their Hawaiian Snow.

Keep plugging away. And go easy on the waterings :)

With 2 weeks left I would not hesitate to top her 2 nodes down or even just one. That will have the lower branches up and keep the stretch even instead of One Stretch way high.

They are feminized.

@Golden: I'm using 2 of the plants as mothers should I top those also? Or just top the weaker ones i'm going to flower??

Depends on what you want. Some people top their mothers when planning to train or "bonsai" them. Are you planning to root-prune and keep for a while? Topping is usually not advised when looking for a female in non-feminized seeds. Any stress is bad when you're hoping for a good female to male ratio.

Yeah there currently being root pruned by air and light. I was planning on keeping the mothers for awhile and creating a SoG.

Thats a real question there, to top or not to top MOM. Really depends on how high she is getting . I guess I would not top her until I knew her time for mothering is almost up, then I would top her and give her 2 weeks before 12/12

I'm going to go with GoldenGanja here. I would just let her rock out. Once she's burly enough for her first good round of cuttings, top her. Leave a healthy amount of fan leaves and she will bounce back. From there, you'll be fine to tug and yank her any way you need if space is an issue.

Thanks for the info guys!

Space is not an issue.. 2 Mom's are going to have a 4x4 flood tray to get as big as they would like...

I'm really excited 2 put the 2 other plants into a 12/12 .... Just so I can get a good feel for how they develop in flowering... 2 more weeks!

i topped my slh. EARLY. 15 days early. she wont be a MOM mom, i mean all i want is 4 good clones, and then thats it, another week or 2 after the cuttings and shes going into flower. this pic was taken on sunday.
i figure why let her grow stem? i want tops. buds. potential clones.... just my 2 cents:mrgreen:

the 2 shoots come up!!
Cloning time as of the 27th!

Learned a valuable lesson today! Don't over water, woke up and one of my plants were just a little limp and droopy. Some of them are a little yellow. I was watering them pretty much every day until now. I am going to wait a few days see how they respond to not being watered so often. Did some reading on you tube on different plants and there signs of over watering. I was thinking about going getting a moisture meter just so I don't have to second guess myself. I also found this comical video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_GoQG2D0Qs

Update: Learned it was under watering.. the rock wool was bone... So I watered her and i'm going to wait till later this evening to see if she gained in vigor.

I also set up the ebb and flow 4x4... Working like a dream.

I had someone experienced tell me not to over water the SLH. The rain recently caused my pineapple express and SLH limped out like you are describing. It seams to be very sensitive not only to nutrients; but to water as well. I was told to let it dry out more than other strains. At this point I would have to agree with that.

Guys, my GF took my Camera while she's gone on her trip to England.. But do I wish I could ever show you the most recent pictures of my girls...

The fan leaves feel amazing super full and just really strong, also they got a little shine to them, the nodes at the top are now growing out where I topped them, but
during the last few days she got PHAT... I'd say at least 4-6 inches wider on each plant.

The roots are super strong too, there stuffing out the bottom of the containers with that white fuzzy goodness.
So no root rot over this way!

Anyways i'll try to get a camera... Cause today i'm one proud papa!!

Temp @ 23 Solid.
PPM@ 850(.5 Conversion)
Humidity 50-60%
PH: 5.7

Still on Lucas, with H202, a Dash of CalMag and HydroZyme..
(Gonna not use CalMag after the next rez change and i go 100% str Lucas.)

Plants are all showing pre sex flowers... all female no hermies yet!

The topped nodes are growing strong now, and i'm going to have to get some twine to hold them up I think.
