Mine is going good. I have my five ladies looking good. They are almost five weeks from seed. I will post pictures tonight when lights come on. Because I would like a little advice on how they are doing and about trimming and shaping them. Happy growing everyone.

....and they just keep going up. Financed by out-of-state money. Pretty soon they will smother out our true Okie growers. I guess its creating jobs but costing others theirs.

Hello okies. I am asking for any advice on trimming and shaping my plants. I lightly trimmed them but am wondering if I should have went further and trimmed more. They are almost five weeks from seed and are looking very healthy. They are growing in coco coir if that info is needed. Thanks in advance for any help and advice. I tried loading five pics but would only let me load four.

What is the size of the flower footprint under your lights? I recommend you train the branches to fill out the footprint. It's not going to do you any better to let them get taller at this point. You can use garden stakes, bamboo sticks, and/or trellis netting to spread out the branches a little.

When the footprint is about 75% filled, trim the leaves and tiny shoots on the bottom half of the plant that aren't getting light. They'll just end up as tiny popcorn nugs anyway. Also, thin out the foliage at the top a little so light gets a little deeper into the canopy.

Like this is where you want to end up. This is at like 7 weeks flower. It was at the level of the trellis net when it was flipped to 12/12 light cycle. Everything above the trellis is the flowering stretch.

Thank you for the advice. I will definitely try what you suggested. I will get some garden stakes tomorrow and do what you said. Also thanks for the pics for reference.

That pic is one plant in a 3x3 tent under a 200w SUNRAISE qb2000 LED. End result about 8oz good nugs + some larf

I got 11 for our personal grow that's in the the mother tent... gonna wait a few more weeks before we set them outside. Gonna be stormy weather today in our region ... so HEADS UP!

great, even more nitrogen in the ground. youshoould capture a bowl of storm water and evaporate it slowlly, you will see nitrogencrystals in itif thestorn is strong enuff

Man, I got this compost pile that's 8ft wide, 60 ft long and about 2 ft deep. Im gonna plant them right in the pile. I till it regularly with my 6 ft wide PTO driven tiller on my tractor. Shit is rich. Matter of fact,.. I had a piece of larf that we had tilled in there that voluntarily sprung up. It's about 3 ft tall right now.

Two independent methods were used to assess if atmospheric deposition was a major source of nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) to stormwater in two small urban watersheds located in Lincoln, NE. First, event mean concentrations (EMCs) of NO3-N in stormwater during approximately 13 storms were compared with corresponding NO3-N concentration in regional wet deposition. Second, NO3-N contributions to stormwater were estimated using Bayesian inference based on isotopic composition (δ15N and δ18O in NO−3). EMC values indicated that roughly half of the total N in storm runoff was from NO3-N. Average mass flux per hectare between the watersheds was significantly different for organic nitrogen (N) but not for inorganic N (nitrate and ammonia N), suggesting inorganic N originates from similar sources. Both methods showed that atmospheric deposition was a major source of NO3-N in stormwater for smaller storms (<32 mm in this study), when most runoff is likely to be derived from impervious cover. In larger storms, the relative contribution from atmospheric deposition was smaller, with nitrified soil and fertilizer being the largest proportional contributors
