hey scott - are you growing the grapefruit pheno by any chance? also, 2 of my 3 nycd girls (day 25 of flowering) have a "3rd" fan leaf that started appearing after they grew past a certain point or so many internodes. do you have a pheno with this leaf configuration?
the last batch had a lemony aroma/taste to it.. I'm assuming it's the grapefruit pheno.. do you have a pic of the fan leaf you're talking about??

yep i have lots of pics of them but i haven't had time to get them uploaded. been working to much... they have a 3rd fan leaf at every internode and it only starts showing that third fan leaf after it grows past a certain height or past a certain internode. not sure just how many it takes, but all of a sudden a 3rd leaf appears. all three of my plants smelled like ruby red grapefruits from the beginning. i do smell pink grapefruit from time to time (not sure just what one is making the smells yet). straight fem seeds from soma. i am hoping to pull of the grapefruit one. i have clones pulled from all ready to roll

here's some pics.. nothing to report... except the amazing amount of gas I've had all night due to thanksgiving feast I made last night... my girlfriend hates me right now!! I wonder if farting in the growroom helps with the co2?!?

Just fucking awesome man. +++++++Rep! I can't believe how much they've grown in flower! Your thread inspired me to lollipop a few of my smaller plants and flip over to 12/12 a bit sooner while the plants are still only about 12-16" tall.

You have done a great job so far, those plants look beautiful.

mine are still stretching too and day 29 of 12/12. i hope it stops so i can stop supercropping them... they are relentless though... and i put them into flowering at only 9 inches tall...

i can't imagine if a nycd was vegged until it was 3 feet tall before flowering...

yeah... they stretch sooo much.. that's one the major issues I had the first time around.. there was hardly any veg time on this crop... seems like it's working great though.. I staked up a couple of the plants in room 1 earlier today.. the fan was blowing on 'em pretty hard.. so they were leaning a bit.. I can't wait for these nugz to be finished though... they're smelling so sweet & fragrant right now..:weed:

how far from the top of the canopy are you keeping the growzillas, scott?
like 14-16" pretty close.. I cant get them up any higher at this point.. I can't wait to work with a shorter strain.. it'll make things a lot easier. I don't see how you could really get these nyc diesels any shorter.. I mean these were little babies when I started them on 12/12...
