So here it is:

-3rd grow ever

-1st grow with this setup and ever this far with the plant

-Pro Grow 180 (http://www.hydroponicshut.com/pro-grow-180-watt-led-grow-light-hydroponics-hut.html)

-4' Buckets

-Fox Farm Ocean Forest (http://www.amazon.com/Farm-Ocean-Forest-Potting-Cu-Ft/dp/B000AXPUDE/ref=pd_sim_ol_29)

-Dutch Passion's Twilight x2 (http://www.cannabis-seeds-bank.co.uk/dutch-passion-twilight-feminized/prod_265.html) My first choice for an insomnia strain.

- 101 cfm In line Duct (http://www.hvacquick.com/products/residential/Bathroom-Ventilation/Remote-Fans-for-Bath/SP-TD-Series-Inline-Fans)

- 62 x 36 x 20 inch Tent (http://www.amazon.com/LED-Wholesalers-GYO1001-Reflective-Hydroponic/dp/B00283Q59M/ref=pd_sbs_lg_14)
- Fan Blowing medium speed at night every 5 seconds.

And that's it.

The left plant grew taller and faster than expected and so the top cola was pushing itself against the light. Made a quick adjustment to put the light the way it is so the plants can keep growing like they are without getting smashed up against the light. Used/Using Dental floss to maneuver the plants accordingly. Only 2 colas got effected by that. Everything else is green and super duper healthy. The plants are JUST starting to get white dots BUT the stem has so many sparkly dots! It smells like a rotten funky cheese with a taint sweet bitter cheese melted smell. mmmmm

Only comment about the strain is it grows tall!

Enjoy!

Hi I was working with this strain for some time, it is naturally bushy as you tell so far but to be honest I'm a bit surprised you got such stretchy plants, I never had this issue. I also advise you let them go for a full 9 weeks as they lump on the mass in the last week, enough to make you really notice, keep well and grow well.

Yeah, they keep growing taller. I have 8 more seeds of Twilight so its going to be with me for a while unless I decide to go for another night time strain. Excellent, Ill go 9 weeks instead of 8. Did any of your plants go purple?

So bushy at the bottom had to remove em. Hard at first. Left plant Vegged for 2 months and right plant Vegged for 1 month. Long story short, I dropped my light trying to adjust it (rookie mistake) and it snapped my Strawberry cough in 1/2. Planted seedling of Twilight vegged it for 1 month.

When I came into it though, I made a conscious decision to veg for 4 weeks and flower for 8 weeks. But now that I see how Twilight grows in this environment im going to re adjust the veg time to around 2 weeks, maybe 3 tops. And I know Strawberry Cough, when I had it growing, by weeks it was as tall as my Twilight to the right thats been under light for 7 going on 8 weeks. So for the Strawberry Cough, Ill probably Start flowering after 1 week of Veg.

Once the plants started to grow taller than PG 180 can and push against the glass, I had to get creative and put the PG 180 sort of in the back almost hung like a picture frame so that all the bushes get light and the height can keep going all it wants and wont be bothered with.

I use plenty of Dental Floss.

Hope this gives you an idea and inspired a creative thought.

They started showing purple in the calyxes but then we got the heatwave which did not help at night, if you can get the night time temps real low they will turn, I was aiming for 19 celcius but that was my comfort number, yours will be different along with your rooms enviro..

Yea its summer time and gets around 80 degrees at night and 88-89 during peak. Which is PERFECT for LED.

How did your plant smell like? I love how mine smells. Its a funky moldy buttery taint smell.
