It was in a scrog but it was too small for the plant so I took it out. That's why she's still pretty even. I think the holes on my scrog were too small. I'm just going to tie branches down as needed and let her go from here on.

Pic today. I noticed that the growth is a little yellowish. I'm only 11 days into flower. I can also see some stretch since taking the screen off. If you look at the pic you can see the top of the plant. It's the bud site that's touching the smaller pot marked 6. That shows how far I've trained it. The opposite side stretched past her last night. Should I ever have to add N during flower or should the plant have enough stored? My next reservoir change will get ph and ppm balanced but as of today my reservoir tested about 6.0-6.2.

It depends on the nutes, but mine have N in them for flower. I put my girls into 12/12 on the 16th and just changed my res on the 19th and I used a veg mix still. I'm under the impression that high levels of P during the transition phase will increase the stretching. Either way they are really happy, I personally believe in trying to keep my girls green till the end, trying not to let them yellow out. On the flip side you don't want to pump them full of too much N, or anything else for that matter.

i liked fox farm to begin with but i feel like botanicare is a smoother drink for the girls and the sweet at the end of flower does its work
and its easier than molasses by far

even with your FF nutes add the sweet that compliments your genetics. they say all the way through but i start after the 4-5th week depending on the progress

Flower day 14. Stretching and buds are starting to form. I had to add my seedlings to the flower tent because of a time restriction. They look droopy because that's right after lights on and today is watering day. I'm at full strength on my tiger bloom and running 1/2 strength on the big bloom in my seedlings soil.
Look at all those tops on my critical jack!!! There's a lot more within one inch of the canopy's top. She's going to be really nice if this keeps up. Enjoy the root shot too......

Here she is after 19 days of 12/12. She's really starting to hit her stride and stretch with buds forming everywhere.

In there with her are a few other strains such as white lavender, stacked kush, thc bomb, mamba Negra and two madness. All deficiencies have subsided and everything is running smoothly.

Lol no patience huh. Your 6 pages deep and I think you've had some interest. However there are a million journals on here that sometimes the smaller ones get lost in the mix.
