My official grow thread! With pics!

Can't raise the light... gently bend the plant...

IMHO super-cropping will have little or no value at this stage and cause undue stress on the forming budz. They are right at the point were development is really gonna start kicking in. Super-cropping (again IMHO) will re-focus energy to healing the branch instead of bud production. .

What is the light suspended from?

I agree, supercropping isn't a great thing to do right now but it's better than getting no light at all. I have seen it done this late in flower, with an AutoMazar, barely skipping a beat. If its really healthy I don't think it will be a big deal.
It's an option if the light can't be raised.

A metal shelving unit hung above the plants. That's why I think I'm a little fucked. But I also tied a shit load of branches down. Spent 45min doing it tonight. I'll get a pic up

Then why advise someone else to do it? I know...because you saw it done by someone. About a year ago I saw a guy walk a tightrope across the grand canyon...I would never advise anyone to do the same.

This late into flower? I'm on week 4 today.

I agree with yeaster! Sure you can and no problems to the plant either! Just pinch carefully till the stem begins to go one way or the other and bend her in to place! Supercropping increases bud size along the branching that's bent.

On another note. I've never been an LED hater but, I will say you would do better with something else in bloom as far as bud size and density are concerned......But that's not a big matter if your happy with what your getting now! You might look into building some COBB LEDs! Hell, on my forced break - I should too!

Even with an Auto? Thats the main thing im worried about. The plant thats giant has been really flowering the last couple weeks. At first it was way behind. I just dont wanna stunt it. I wish I had the money to get better lights as well. But ill start by upgrading the bulbs in my t5 i use for veg.

Thanks for your reply by the way Doc!!

 

[Dr. Who]

You wont - it'll be fine if you crop it!

Awesome grow! I have something very similar, I can wait to see what kind of yield you will be getting

I know man!!! I'm excited!!!! I snipped off a super tiny bottom nig and hung it for 2 days and since it was so small I threw it into a jar and it smells like fucking sweet tea lol. I'm guessing it's rotted? Idk haha.

I gotta start researching on the best methods to dry and cure. My grow room stays at 50% humidity usually. Unless my wife turns the darn dryer on. Then it spikes to 70+ which I just open the door and get cool air in.

 

[BiGrEd1011]

Btw it's more hair and leaves then an actual bud lol figured I'd give it a shot lmao

 

[BiGrEd1011]

Starting to get some yellowing leaves!!!! Flush begins in one week. Actually on the 11th. Harvest is June 25th. Total 93 days.

 

[BiGrEd1011]

Also the NYCDiesel is flowering!!! so may have some smoke for my birthday!!!!
