Been a few days theyre starting to grow quickly now. Took this 3 days after the last pic. I started bending stems after this to start the training for the scrog screen.20160311_010652.jpg

Went ahead and did some lst tonight to open up the 2 sour diesels and the blue dream. The super lemon haze is really showing that classic sativa stretch and node spacing. Im thinking she isnt going to yield alot due to having to heep her in line with the rest of the canopy but im hoping to get a couple clones off her before i flip so i can do a flower cycle on those. Lots of options in still considering since its early in the grow.

1st and 2nd pic are sour diesel and the blue dream
3rd pic self explanatory
4th pic showing the stretch of that sativa heavy super lemon haze

Looks good man. Are you going to SCROG all 4 when it comes to flower? And what are the average of your temps if you don't mind me asking ?

Looks good happy growing

I was going to scrog all 4 but im not sure now with the super lemon haze being so stretchy. I knew better than to put it in there but i only had the 1 so i figured why not.

Temps are anywhere from 60-90 night to day. Its an attic grow and swith the cool spring weather right now its great but when it heats up outside during flowering i am probably going to have to run a forced air intake from the house to keep cool air pumped in as well as my exhaust fan taking it out. High temps in the 2 months ahead are my only real concern.

So just 24 hours later the sour diesel really responded well to the lst. The smaller inner nodes came up and filled in. Had to move my tie downs all the way to the end of the mains they had already grown enough to turn fully up to the light. Also tied over my lemon haze it was just stretching so much. First time growing something that isnt indica dominant. 20160317_230717.jpg

Well topped the mains once more and lst everything fown for the last time. I am happy with the number of tops im seeing so now im just gonna leave it alone and let it grow for a week. Ill be purchasing the scrog screen and putting it together thursday. Just going to try to keep the canopy even until then. I want to have about 12-14" between top of pot and screen. Im estimating stretch and total height i have available in tent with my led so i dont get in a situation where i have it raised all way up and they grow too close. I dont like my led any closer than 16" to the canopy like to keep it at 24".

Just letting things grow until thursday. Ill place the screen in then and go from there. I will lst to keep them even until then but only minimally. The super lemon haze is really not making as much progress as i would like but when you only got 1 seed what're you going to do? Just hope the buds turn out decent.20160322_001729.jpg

Nice, looks healthy!! Those temps are not terrible for LED but more you can dial it in the better grow will be. We have a super lemon haze and blue dream vegging under blackdog LED now. I'll sub so we can compare. Best of luck bud!

PS love the training, those girls will stretch!!!

Ok so i was lazy and waited until tonight to put the screen together and drop it in. I ordered my exhaust fan and have my carbon filter already. I also picked up some terpinator and they gave me a free small bottle of silica. Dont know if ill try the silica this grow or not.

For those keeping track im now using fox farm nute trio, gh floralicious+, gh cal mag, and terpinator.

I had a metal piece of fence gate that i cut the ends off of and sat on some TP rolls. The big ones that get used in public bathrooms haha. I had some old ones laying around in the workshop. Raised it up so i can get my drip pans underneath and remove after the run off is done when i water.

Next grow will prob be 2 white widow in 5 gal dwc and scrog.20160325_101540.jpg 20160326_033411.jpg

Yeah i ended up finding a metal fence gate at lowes for $7. I used a dremel to cut the ends off of it and it works great to keep them elevated. I just dont want to have to mess with drip pans anymore. I dont have a set up for drain to waste either.

Im looking forward to dwc but i am hesitant due to things like if a power outtage happens in a bad thunderstorm we normally get here theyll die so theres that...

Although I'm still a bit new myself I've already started thinking about moving towards a full on hydro system of some sort but like you I have concerns one we definitely share. I live in a town with le casinos and we get some strong winds/bad storms (to be honest them thunderstorms are awesome to watch! turn of all the lights and just enjoy!) lol so we occasionally get power outages for a bit here and there.
