Actually plant #1 was about 7 days older then P2 so thats the difference. So p1 was 20 days old and p2 was 13 days old in those pics.

well it looks like you took pics one week apart. on 2/21, p1 was 13 days in the pic, and a week later on 2/28, p2 was 13 days in a different pic, no? so i was saying that p2 @ 13 days looked smaller than p1 @ 13 days and it looks like p2 came out bigger in the end which is counterintuitive. that was the interesting thing

Now i get ya.
Yes P2 caught up and passed P1 in size very quickly. I dont know enough to say if it a different Phenotype or Genotype expression but one is tall with dense buds the other small, super bushy and its buds are a little less dense.

One thing i noticed is at day 35 P2 almost looked done. The pistils were dying back very fast and i even had a few amber trichomes. Today I noticed P2 has had an explosion of growth and new pistils are shooting out everywhere.

P1 looks like it has a way to go in terms of pistil dieback and trich color. Its hard to see it in the pics but its buds, even on the lower branches, are pretty large and if they fill in in the next few weeks, it should be a force to be reckoned with.

Lookin good dude,

But I still think you should have
cut "ALL" the under growth popcorn BS out, it would have givin you a better yield.

The best growers in the world, prune the fuck out of their plants. Cut whats gotta be cut

Doin Vert dude, you gotta cut that BS, make your plant care.

I hear you and can try that on another run. But when doing a 2 step harvest as Uncle Ben does, the popcorn buds get nice and fat if you keep enough green healthy leaves to do it.
When i start to harvest i will show you some picturs of the popcorn buds before and after so you can see what i mean.

All growers don't grow exactly the same. We all have our likes and dislikes on how we want to grow our plants. I don't know if pruning and trimming drastically benefits yield or not, and it really doesn't matter to me if it does. I leave a lot of the bottom and undergrowth on my plants too. Yeah, the plant may not need it, and without it I might get bigger buds and yield, but that is not my prime goal. We all do it a little different and still have what we need from our plants. I would like to see some photos of your grow(s) to see how you do it...

Looking really nice Doc, plant #2 is frosting up good. Are you thinking this is a strain you want to keep around? I guess you will know alot more after you smoke it.

I found they clone real easy, I took 2 cuts off each of the 3 G13 I have and they all took root pretty quick.

The more I look at these pics the more I want to try a vert grow myself. How much longer you guessing they got to go?

Well,
By Dr Greenthumbs estimate i have about 10 days to go. Im guessing one of them will be ready in that time give or take a few days. The other looks like it will go 20 more days...have to wait and see.
