Bro!!!!!! Your looking fuckn amazing over there!!!! 20 more days you think?
Yeah gonna wait for day 80 i think or at least til theres more amber. Today starts week 8 of flower. My lady got antsy last night to get some drying to sample next weekend, so she cut a few stems down . We cut down 1 stem with a few nice nugs on it like 2 weeks ago and dried and cured it. We waked and baked on it this morning and that shit had us stoooopid blitzed, and i have a super high tolerance so i know these plants are packing a punch. 1 bowl was enough for the whole morning, til later in the afternoon . cant wait til these few stems dry for another sampling next week

Is that an outdoor grow? They would be small after 8 weeks under my fluoros, much less outdoors. But they look very healthy. You can top anytime in veg, even now if you like, but they're bushing up pretty good on their own.
I would of vegged from clone. Every time they tip and every top node at every level then tie them branched down straight like a water hose and watch the rest of the stems work there magic as the long for light. It Makes one plant in a five gallon Lowe’s bucket do this. I have one setup With a single plant and another set up to plant and they both like the same

No u can actually at week 6 A flower or leave your light off for three straight days and then go back to 12 on 12 off same timing hours and the plants will think winter is coming even quicker than usual with season change and will grow three times faster you just might have to water and extra time more than usual good luck happy farming
 
That's great advice and factual! Right on man she's about to be chopped 2 weeks ide say. Attached is a pic from Jan 7th. I might go 3 weeks more what do u think? This is one of two 'main" colas.

I’d go 10 weeks if it’s sativa. Indica tends to triocome faster and you can get away with 8 or nine weeks of flower but them sativas like to be slow and rewarding. If it’s an auto flower on the other hand I’d say cut it two weeks no problem. I topped all my buds, tied them down and them topped all them bud sites and I have one plant that covers my whole four foot across closet. I’ve still got 7 or eight weeks to go till harvest.

I usually micro top my plants after clone to make it where it branches off making two stems, only I leave the top I cut with a razor attached and tape it. It heals it together and makes three branches leaving the mains. I just bend them over and over with the canopy. Learned it from wise old pot farmers from back in the day.

I have a sativa at 13 weeks right now and don't plan to harvest it for another week or two. I cut the sister clone at 12 weeks and was sort of disappointed.

Day 40 here. the power of an even canopy means 9 or 10 colas this pretty on each plant

I micro topped all of my mains and water hosed them. It’s made my ten main colas turn into fourth or fifty different flower sites topped into bud sites. What is this breed Afghan. I cloned orange dream with dragons breath so it has beautiful white flower pops with orange hairs all over it.

Having darkness isn’t really an issue that’s when they feed. , it’s being able to keep the slightest crack of light from outside reaching in restarting veg a problem. Should be fine though .

Hey yall!! How have u all been? Guys i potted up 2 days ago but this morning I noticed a droop in this top... is this over watering? If so ill cut back. Any other ideas? Same plant and info as top of thread.
Give it a couple days it’s just fresh veg. They actually wilt the entire lifespan. When they stoop over there usually taking in water or waiting to grow more veg and ready the nutrients it needs.

I agree with that 100% no doubt about it but I think tieing the top over offers similar results, I've both atm topped and tied and I can't pick out which is which looking at the top of canopy both have multiple branches with tops/colas.
I take my tops to the stand and leave them with the branches that grew behind them. I think you get more buds I’n smaller size that outweighs the total dry ten to one .agreed.

You really want to wait for the tricoms to go all amber. That comes with age. Sativa's take FOREVER but are well worth the wait. That being said if you want a heavy couch lock you really should go with an indica dominant.
