No Veg/Giant Cola discussion

[C.Indica]

I want to see/read/talk about plants that grow into one fat bud with no branching.
A lot of you accomplish this by flowering clones as soon as they root.
I personally really like the shape of one fat cola as the whole plant.

If anybody has pictures/links to this, please put them up.
I want to hear;
-Age of Mother
-Rooting Time
-Veg Time
-Flowering Time
-Size of Rootspace
-Lights, wattage, distances.

Thanks a ton for contributing, I really want to perfect this style of growing.
None of these are mine.

Sub'd for this i have been wanting to grow like this for a while and have not had much info on it so far..i would love to get say a 1/2 off each plant and have say 10 or 12 going..

 

[C.Indica]

My longterm goal is 1oz per plant.
But my immediate goal is to start off at least 1/2oz per plant.

 

[stinkbudd1]

The same here i just harvested a ounce average off the ones i chopped actually a lil over due to a couple of nice plants..but to do that from single colas will be pushing it i think it would have to be a great yielding plant as well as a really well done grow i think but definately possible i believe..I could only dream about pulling 10 zips off ten single cola girls..

Makes me wanna do it just say screw numbers and stack em up like the top pic of hydroton grow . Makes trimming a breeze I may have to do a test grow for this thread 600 vs 1000 in single cola plants or bush vs singles on same lights might be fun

 

[C.Indica]

I vote bush vs singles.

Thanks a TON for offering to do our test grow.
I really want to get into this.

check the 12/12 from seed thread a lot of guys get huge single buds doing that.

 

[C.Indica]

From seed is a lot harder to achieve the same results.
I am aware of that thread, but when growing from seeds they almost always branch out a little.
If you grow from clones with no veg time, they literally become just a bud.

i had done 12/12 from clone before and had branching as well i didnt have those big single colas

 

[C.Indica]

Yea.. But there's also people who do 2 weeks veg, and still get the giant cola.
Just depends on Age of mother, size of clone, veg time, environment.

i think it has a lot to do with the strain and pheno. because i doubt my OG's would ever turn out with a giant cola like that.

I'm positive this has to do with it, but at the same time you could definately get very close results with proper technique.
If you flowered a 3" clone, and cut off all the secondary budsites, it would probably do it.

Hmm interesting.

I think so.

you guys are pretty big dreamers expecting a zip per flowering clone, but hey dreams are fun and with the right amount of light possible. I just got into this style of growing and cloning. I'm using 2 150W HPS on my mothers and vegging clones and 1 400W HPS on the flowering clones. My friend has been using the same set-up for over a year now and his colas always look beautiful which is why i have adapted the style. 4-8 clones under a 400W HPS can pull around 1/8 per plant depending how much you veg and genetics. if you were using a 1000W and had super good nutes and great humidity and C02 levels i could see maybe getting an onion off one little girl

 

[C.Indica]

I expect a half easily.
Dreams are fun.
If your friend has been using a 400w for over a year, and the most he can get is 1/8oz per plant, at a total of 1/2oz-1oz per 8week+ cycle,
then he's doing something wrong. Just sayin'.

 

[stinkbudd1]

i agree.. he should be on average getting at least a half per if he is running a single cola grow with any type of vegging....

 

[apollo4]

ive ran singles from seed with over halfon ak 48,flowered at seedling.it does depend on the strain tho.my vote is 4 singles.whole haverst a QUALITYinstead of four heads 2;3 zpspopies

 

[jdmcwestevo]

i would love this but for my needs i need a 1/4lb per plant to meet my quotas using ebb and flow buckets. best way for me to reach that is by topping i dont think i could do it with one single cola i have roughly 96 buckets even spread under 20 1k watt lights

Maybe once I get my CMH setup. I don't expect that yet.
I bet I could pull 10g+ with CFLs though if I tried hard enough.

12/12 from seed usually ends up in bushy branchy skinny things.
What did they look like, and what were you trying to type?

That's rediculous, and what's wrong with doing twice as many plants at half the size?

 

[jdmcwestevo]

because limit is 99 plants as per the lawyer for that particular grow. it is normally advised in cali for a medical grow to stay at 99 or less plants. keeps it state issue over that is federal. granted with a collective and being a caregiver i can grow 6 plants for every patient i have and i have something like 4500 patients on file so do the math lol. when you grow with ebb and flo buckets though that is about the normal yield per plant with a 1 month veg time under 1000s you get nice size buds great bag appeal. its a proven system and i get very consistent results and very low maintenance.

 

[C.Indica]

But the feds can still fuck with you whenever they want.
Nice sound to it, does it have it's own thread?
