Something I thought I would mention.
Since both of these plants are hanging so low to the soil, I have been struggling when I water, to keep from watering the leaves even after trimming some of the lowest branches.
I finally thought of something, and it's working great.
I took an empty Whiskey bottle, rinsed it, and fill it with my water, nutes or whatever and reinstall the plastic pour cap.
The cap keeps the water from dumping out too fast and disturbing the soil, and the long thin neck makes it easy to get in below the foliage.
Still adjusting the string almost every other day, and trimming the occasional leaf trying to thin out the middle of the PK because it's so thick in the center.

Thanks man, it's funny how my closet space is awkwardly full, and I've been putting them both outside for at least 6 hrs./ day the last week, but I'm willing to endure the fuck, IDK what to call it, but it's kinda inconvenient, kinda dumb, kinda awkward, kinda silly, having to go peep the plants every hour and half or so to make sure they didn't grow up into the lights............( I just burned 2 more leafs today, because I was off doing other things.:wall::wall::wall:).
Even tonight, I brought them in less than 7 hrs. ago, and just went and looked for the third time since then, and had 2 more burned leaves.

Wow, I got them outside for their dose of real sun for the day, and ended up transplanting the Diesel into her final 5 gal. home and redoing the string for the LST.
I didn't really think the roots were full yet, but I did it because my pot diameter was too narrow for the angle I wanted to train to.

I was actually glad I decided to do it today when I saw the rootball.
Now I'm wondering what I'm going to do when I have to t-plant the Kush into a 5 gal if I end up doing that before they are done vegging.:idea:
Here's the roots on March 30 when I put into the 1 gal. pot.March30SDroots_zpsc04eb41b.jpg
And today, less than a month later going into the 5 gal.April26SDtransplant_zps1ec577cb.jpgApril26SDroots_zpsbb03dd8d.jpg
And, after more LST.April26SDaftertplantandLST_zpsd8d04d5b.jpg
I think I'm actually going to chop a branch and throw it into 12/12 just to make sure I'm not wasting time on a boy.
My PK was a fem seed, but this one, IDK.

Here's this week's pics, 49 days from sprout.
I'm getting an uneasy feeling about the SD, may be a boy, and the Granddaddy Purp I initially planted never even sprouted, so I'm kinda glad I kept a couple clippings from the bagseed I just finished, as it smoked like some of the GOOD Cali shit I used to get.
Still vegging both, but I took a cutting from the SD day before yesterday, and put into 12/12, hoping it will show soon.
The PK looks a little droopy, because I knew last night she was thirsty, and I thought I would water this afternoon, but when I pulled her out to take pics, she was wilted like fuck all.
Pics are only after an hour after watering.
And, it's funny, after I LST, and some of the leaves get turned upside down, they just stay that way-never turning right side up, so I guess the bottoms of the leaves collects UV as well as the tops.

And, here's a couple pics of the SD., a couple days after transplant into the final 5 gal. pot hoping it's a girlie.

Thanks man, I'm thinking if I put out into 12/12 outside on the 9th, I will have exactly 60 days of veg, but I don't know how much longer I can keep shoving them in my 2x2 area at night to keep under the lights.:lol:
I keep winding them up tighter and tighter, and they keep growing up, so every couple days I have to add more strings and adjust the existing ones.
Every time I shove them in or bring them out for daytime sun, I'm expecting to drop one, or snag a branch on something.
I actually have the Diesel going around one direction, and the Kush going the opposite direction. LOL:clap:

Shit!
After transplanting the Kush into her 5 gal. pot today, I was debating whether or not to just go ahead and throw outside for all natural sun, but I decided to being in, and put back under the CFL's and keep vegging.
I peeped around 8, and knew a couple leafs were close to the CFL's, and just went and looked again, and a leaf had already grown up and was touching the bulb.:wall::wall:

Those things are getting huge! Imagine how fast they would grow with natural sun!
All but yesterday, the past week, I have been putting them out from at least noon 'till 6 P.M., and ya, they are growing like "weeds"!
At least a half inch per day.
Every second day at the most, I am having to adjust existing string, and sometimes add new strings to keep them in check.:mrgreen:
