Thanks dlf, I have been pretty lucky so far. This is only my third grow and first time growing from my own clone. Hoping to use the last journal to see how much the yield can be improved as well as doing 2 pots in the same small space.

Had a little time this morning so I thought I would pull them out for photos. They have not been out of the grow box pretty much since flip. I was planning on feeding tomorrow but when I pulled them out the pots are quite light so I ended up feeding. I gave some 5-8-4 Happy frog, 10-0-0 Bat guano, calmag, Earth worm castings and blackstrap molasses at 6.7pH. This will probably be my last feeding adding in N, I am glad I did because when I pulled them out I did notice some lightening up along the bottom.

Here they both are:

G1 is having a bit of a weight problem, I did not notice while in the cabinet so I am glad I pulled them out.

I staked her up, looking fine now:

G2 seems to be holding the buds up fine.

And for 30 days in, I think they are filling in just fine.

Nice shots HB. The sun shows how healthy, and strong they look. I bet the trichs were throwing prizms like crazy! Killer work.

Thanks, its actually cloudy and overcast as hell today. Will likely be some rain this afternoon. I was stinky as hell after the tie down, so sticky.

Thanks Missy

5 weeks tomorrow, so time for an update. Putting on weight, last run I pulled at 60 days, will see if I can keep these in for an extra week or so.

Thanks. Will be sticking to a single plant from now on since I cannot use my screen with multiple plants and they need the support badly. I don't think I could take them out now if I wanted, they would likely snap. Do you have any recent shots or yours?

But of course!! The canopy shot is my little freak (triploid) she's taking her sweet time flowering but I think she's gonna be a good one. The other 2 pics are of one of my other girls...:)

Beautiful, they look great! Those fan leaves look HUGE
Thanks...having some yellowing issues with the one. I think I've just been too careful NOT to feed too much!! I'm quite proud of the canopy on my triploid...it's perfectly even, only topped her once and didn't use a cage. It's kinda my first "attempted" mainline :)
Keep those updates coming...love seeing your beautiful ladies!! :)

I have the same yellowing problem with this strain. Doesn't seem to matter how much I feed, starting week 4-5 the leaves start to lighten up. I gave a big extra dose of N this time to try to keep it green but I can tell I will probably have the same yellowing. Yield and potency do not seem affected, but I still would prefer to keep it green so I can let them mature a little more before harvest.

Thanks guys. It is super sticky and super stinky now.

Day 37
Fed a heavy dose of 5-8-4 with calmag and molasses. Just shy of 2 gallons split between the two 3 gallon pots.

Falling all over themselves. Really missing the screen, they seem to be getting shorter since the stems cannot hold up the buds.

42 days in. Plain water this morning. It seems this strain just likes to yellow late in life, no mater how strong I feed her so I will be ok with that :D

Plumping up, just waiting for harvest
