Day 38 since the flip.
Everything is coming along nicely, I have noticed a lot of swelling in the buds as of late. The leaves on all but the center plan remain green and beautiful, and the middle is subject to nute burn. It seems like such a delicate little strain.
I added 10 solo cups with a dual 13w cfl hanging above them. I plan on using these for germination and will let some plants live the whole cycle in the cups.

Looking good man the little clone is trippin me out it's getting real hairy.
I know man it's the weirdest little thing I've seen too! I am still waiting for a crazy little plant to start growing like crazy but it just sits there. Gains 1/8inch every week. It's a ridiculous little thing.

Great looking stuff man!Late Belated birthday btw, just comin n checkin your grow out.
Check my stuff out the one that's budding good is REALLY budding good, by my standards at least haha.
I hope my good plant looks somewhat like yours at 6 weeks flowering, approaching the end of week 3 flowering so I'll have some new pics soon.

What nutes are you feeding for flowering?
Do you have temp and humidity? I'm feeding Iguana Juice Bloom and some Big Bud at half strength now. (just got them in the mail recently)
Whats your wattage? I'm now running a high power 105 watt cfl bulb! :D I ordered 2 but 1 was broke on arrival so now I have to wait for them to send a replacement.
My plants should take off soon so keep an eye out :) I'll definitely be checking on yours.

Good to hear your babies are looking well, I can't wait to see some new pictures of it! Nice and green and full and full of budsites! I think they look great, no problems that I can see. Considering your using CFLs, keep them close!

My lights on temp is usually 80-85, it goes up to 85 when I use the 500w work light.
My lights off temp is usually 75-77, regardless of just about anything.

My nute dose is:
1/2tsp MiracleGro Crystal 15-30-15 (JAM-PACKED with trace nutes... Almost every one of them!)
1/2tsp MiracleGro Liquid 12-4-8 (For some leafs and a type of N not found in the crystal)
1TBSP Pure Cane Sugar (To replace molasses as well as provide P and carbs for micro-organisms in the soil)
1tsp Monterey Fish&Guano 3-9-6 (Organics make Earth happy and who knows what kind of dope trace minerals there are)
1-3 pebbles dolomite lime (For ph balance)
1-3 drops StartRight Water Conditioner (Removes chlorine and bromine, also is a solvent and disintegrant, which may be helpful in unforeseen ways)

Crazy thing is tht it might be the dankest bowl/blunt/joint out your whole crop lol.
Hahahaha I was thinking the same thing, but I'm hoping I can turn those hairs into branches. My farthest right plant is a reveg that only had about 4 nugs, so I can only the imagine the dankness possible if I re-veg the baby nug clone. I'm hoping for shoots to replace each and every hair on that nug.

The plants I have outside average 1-3" of growth every damned day. It's all cool for them to start out there, but I'm bringing them in during september, I think. I have a feeling they'll be about 2 feet tall by then, maybe 3 or 4. I'm gonna ditch the SCroG for the outside guys because they'll be far too tall! I'm thinking something like Highjack's plant style, he doesn't SCroG and he gets nug logs. I'm down for nug logs.
Also, try some molasses if you haven't already. It's a godsend for everyone who uses soil.
On top of that, feed with nutes every other feeding. I've found that this greatly reduces the chance of burns and nute lockouts.
Also, watering until the runoff is like Niagara falls is no bueno, my babies get all droopy when I water with a million gallons.

Some stuff I wrote for a friend on GC.

Lookin sweet Arc! Been having computer problems but looks like I got back in time to see the harvest at least. Been a tough summer for growing, this heat had me wanting to scrap my grow midway. Glad I stuck it out but I will be an Oct-May grower until I get a place I can put central air in.

Cheers to your succesful grow and looking forward to the chop!
