i would say thats the only prob with straight coco, it holds moisture so well dampening off can be a problem. i tried using coco in my net pots in my dwc. 1st time round i had a hole pack of purple gems rotted at the stem, the bubbles were keeping it too wet.

i killed them with kindness and the tude dont refund grower error lol

what other strains you got anyways....?? (i personally hate white widow if it aint black!!)

Critical+.


You have to try it m8.

It blows my fucking mind how strong that strain is left to go 64 days of 12/12.


I can't handle any more than about 3 spliffs within 2 hours.

Not to sound negative but I've read from those I trust that Critical+ is not bad but nothing special. And not sure what is meant by 64 days, 64 in or 64 to go, but I look for something that kicks my butt after 3 bong pulls when still immature to know it'll be one-hitter-quitter when done. Have a very high tolerance and most of what folks say is dank is mediocre to me. Think I was forever spoiled years ago by a no name pheno I found from seed that was so unbelievably potent that if I described it none would belieqve it. Wouldn't either if I hadn't witnessed it myself. Named her Atomic Chronic and appropriately placed a little halogram lightning bolt sticker on the bags.

I meant 64 days total of 12/12 lighting.

Maybe I got lucky or I'm just a lightweight but it puts me on my arse!

Been quite a heavy smoker knocking on 15 years.

Should be interesting. I also just chopped my first mainline and the strain leaves a little to be desired the harvest was speechless for me. I ended up with 8z off 1 plant only veg for 7 weeks.

If you don't mind me asking,
how many heads on your mainline?
How many plants?
What lighting?

My first mainline is just beginning to show the new growth of recovery.

What a massive action. I took a plant that was about 2 feet tall and
left it buried in the hempy with a few inches sticking up. I expect that
at least seven weeks will be necessary, but it will pick up speed.

That looks like a cool breed list.

Good luck Buds.

NO LEMS?????? lol
the critical 47 will be tryed im just gona go with these 5 for now and see what im like for space if i can get 1 more in or if 5 is to many, looking at first page nugbuckets tops small buy the looks of things and on the last pages people saying 5th or 6th node and bury the stem? what u recon m8

5/6th node nuggs has his shit on smash, i tired it early and found the later the better, give them time to be able t take it i also found that say you are on the 6th node and top her wait 3 days, then remove the lowest set of branches growth is then pushed back up, 3 days later top for 4 and wait 3 days, growth will have been pushed down then remove another set of branches, wait 3 days and top for 8, wait 3 days and take any remaining branches off.

i would also leave the fan leafs on if you can untill the top canopy shadows them.

unless growing trees i think 8 tops is plenty or in your case do 4 with 8 tops and one with 4 tops to cram that extra one in...

the only problem i have with this technique is a conflict in my beliefs, i believe this is a great technique esp for reducing waste popcorn bud, even level light distribution, level canopy, great for air flow etc i also believe in letting plants establish them selves fully before starting to hack them up, i like to wait untill there about 12" tall....all this means is i need a way to combine both principles, i think what i have said above is a start!

ok well it will be a mutual decision anyway when i start to chop out off them. might do 4 white widow x big bud and do 4 tops on each in my 3x3ft cuboard or just do 2 plants with 8 tops each and save 2 seeds
