Looks nice and bushy. Beautiful lush green color too. Will you be doing any kind of training?

Thanks a lot for the feedback. We did a little bit of training with the Hash plant back in veg. I don't have much experience with training plants with LST, super cropping, sog, or anything else really. Its definitely something I will be looking into for my next grow. I just wanted to mess with the hashplant a little bit to get an idea of how a plant will respond to certain things. I did LST on one of the branches, and we super cropped the main stock a couple weeks ago. It is really cool how it has gone from having just one main cola to now have 5!

I will probably start doing some pruning of the lower parts of the plants soon. Since they are so bushy, and close together, i think its important that there is good airflow beneath the canopy. And besides that, all that would produce that low on the plant would be such a pain in the ass to harvest, might as well send the energy to the top buds!!!

Thanks OG, I think your referring to just the hashplant when your talking about the stretching? its the one in the back left corner. That's my friends plant, his grow space sucks and he asked me if he could just throw a clone in my tent when i got it. I told him yeah but that I was gonna have the light directly over my 4 babies primarily, and that his could just catch whatever extra light it can manage to. It is the farthest from the light by far (between 15-24 inches depending on which top you measure from). The rest of them are right around 12 inches from the light and I'm really happy with the spacing between nodes, especially on the Romulan (2 in the front).

Today I fed the plants. Gave them their nutes at 1/2 strength. From here on out I will be up to full strength nutes. I also did a bunch of pruning down low on the plants where they werent getting much light anyways. I figure it will bulk up the top of my plant and also save me a hassle during harvest when i dont have to go down and get all those tiny nugs that arent worth smoking anyways and just end up getting thrown into a batch of cannabutter, which my freezer is already full of haha. Let me know what you guys think!

They are really looking good! Well done. If you still have any CFL around you might throw some of those into the mix if it's convenient.

Looking great man. How are your temps w/o an air cooled hood? I just hooked up my 600 last night and she gives off enough light to get a sun tan but that bulb starts scorching pretty quick w/o my ventilation hooked up.

Are you just using plain tap water? What does your humidity run at?

I'm hoping to have my tent up and running in the next week or so....can't wait to share some pics with ya =]

I actually just got around to getting a Thermometer, but i haven't put it in the tent yet. I have actually been really surprised how cool everything stays in my tent tho. Im able to keep the bulb less than a foot from most of the tops without any sign of heat stress. I just have pretty good fan blowing over the top of the canopy which helps alot i think. I also have the carbon filter with a 190cfm 4" fan that is exhausting hot air from the top of the tent. As of now i dont have any way to check my humidity so im not sure.

I use tap water ph'd to 6.5. Every other watering i give them nutes; I'm using Roots Organics (buddha grow, buddha bloom, HPK, HP2, trinity, ancient amber)

I hope you get your tent up and running soon jonny!

Today is the end of the third week of flower. The bud is looking really good so far on the kushberry and romulan. i have been doing some light thinning of larger leaves that were blocking light from getting to lower buds. they are all looking really happy tho, besides for being a little crowded in there. just took these pictures a few minutes ago so let me know what you guys think! peace
