I lowered the lights a few inches today. They are now ~42" off the floor and ~12" above the tallest WoW top.

Looking good....
How many weeks of veg are you planning?
What's your estimate on yield?
Can you explain how to tie her up?

Thanks Ras

The ones in flower all veg'd 40 - 50 days. This will be my first time getting a CCOB plant all the way through to harvest without having to harvest them early. I was getting 1.5oz on plants that were topped so I am hoping for 2+oz per plant.

There are pics throughout the thread of the training I have done. It is a modified version of the CCOB method that Hobbes created. https://www.rollitup.org/newbie-central/360125-new-growers-needed-grow-lab.html#post4545778

In short: you top for 2 colas, veg until the 2 main stems are long enough to train around the bottom of the cage, and then move into flower within a week or 2 of training. If you train and then flower quickly it reduces the amount of stretch all the new tops have. As they stretch during flower you keep the 2 main tops slightly below the rest of the tops and let them catch up during week 2 - 3 of the stretch. My tallest plant is barely 22" above the soil at 100 days from sowing the seed.

Here is the Sugar Black Rose again, that was trained a few days ago. All those small side branches will now turn up and become new tops. Anything below the bottom ring of the cage or touching the dirt is pruned. During the flowering stretch I prune any branches/tops that aren't able to catch up to the canopy. I also prune off some of the smaller nodes under the canopy, but not the fan leaves, to reduce popcorn buds and concentrate the energy to make bigger tops.

Before training:

Picked up a new 4gb SD card yesterday and the camera reads it fine. On my lowered settings I could only take 16 pics with internal memory. The 4gb card changed that to 2.7k pictures I could take at 3mp. At 10mp I can take 800+ pics, which is more than enough for a day. :twisted:

On my way downstairs to play in the garden and take a ton of pics. :hump:

I will make sure to take some updated pics of the SBR, now 5 days since being trained. She gets transitioned to flower today so I can try to get back to a one plant every 10 day schedule. I am not sure if the AKS and NLxSK will be ready in 10 and 20 days respectively though. :(

I also am a fan of Hobbes....I am quite concerned about him as well

But I wish to apologize for not having tuned in before...

Quite quite the impressive op you got going here....

How are you liking GO? Any particulars one should be aware of?

Thanx and am definitely subbed

I need more rechargeable batteries, off to the store. :D
I took 346 pics today, 1+gb. :twisted:

Now that I am on RO water I like them a lot. I am currently using the full line of GO nutes + DiamondBlack and BioMarine, Hygrozyme, MIR between feedings, Oregonism every other feeding, Bat Guano twice in flower (Grow at week 1 and Bloom at week 5) and Gravity + PurpleMaxx the last 3 - 4 weeks of flower. I germ'd a Magus: Early Biddy today, and plan to germ another in 10 days time. One will get my current regime of nutes/rain but none of the Humboldt nutes, and the other will get SnowStorm Ultra and Botanicare Sweet with the last gallon of every 'Rain' and Gravity/PurpleMaxx at the end of flower. I am hoping it proves to be a useful test, considering I have a big bottle of snowstorm, gravity, and sweet, along with a small bottle of purple maxx on the shelf.

just want to ask dont you think the plants would be better if you turned them so you were 3 deep instead of 2
Possibly, not sure, still trying to get used to 16 sq ft instead of 9.44 sq ft. I am trying to find another patient asap, so I can increase my plant count and flower 9 instead of 6. I expect at that point I will want a 5x5 tent for a dual 600 setup to flower 12 plants, instead of 600/400. :twisted:

Possibly, not sure, .....
Now that I look back at the pics, I know you may be right. Thx.

I will shuffle them around tomorrow morning and take a bunch of pics to see how it looks. Thanks for the suggestion. Sometimes it helps to take a look from a different perspective.
