Its time to start my tent back up. I have not had my tent going for a little over a year now so it about time to get back at it. I have a 4x4 vivosun grow tent, a meijiu 650w f8 led light, and im using 4 3g buckets from the bucket company. I will be using mother earth coco/perlite mix with mills nutrient line (basis a + b, start r, c4, ultimate pk, and vitalize).
For this run i germinated 2 skywalka cookies by big head seeds and 2 girl scout cookies by don avalanche. Started germinating them about 5 days ago and all 4 seeds popped and have been transferred to solo cups on thanksgiving 11/25.
The only pics i have is of everything setup, but i will be trying to update as much as possible.

Almost forgot light on temp/ humi 80°/50% light off 72°/60%20211120_150446.jpg

Always exciting to start a new grow. 3 of the 4 have popped out and here we go. 2 SC and 1 GSC, just waiting on the other GSC to pop.

Might try to dip my toes in cloning this round. Plan to use the coco i am currently using to clone. Any helpful tips would be greatly appreciated.20211128_132005_HDR.jpg20211128_131954_HDR.jpg20211128_131950_HDR.jpg

Girls are growing nice and bushy. Even the smaller one is starting to grow faster.20211219_173734.jpg20211219_173737.jpg20211219_173740.jpg20211219_173743.jpg20211219_173818.jpg20211219_173823_HDR.jpg20211219_173832_HDR.jpg
They are getting a little too dark green so im lowering the nutes im giving them.
Started a little LST on the 3 bigger girls today as well.

The girls are so bushy its crazy. Dont if i should trim some to open them up a little bit it kills me to even try to take any leaves off of them. I see so many people mutilate their plants and its horrifying lol.
But here are my girls as of today.

Any advise or comment would be appreciated and if anyone would like to know more about my grow please feel free to ask.20211224_163925.jpg20211224_163910_HDR.jpg20211224_163907_HDR.jpg20211224_163904_HDR.jpg20211224_163900.jpg20211224_163921_HDR.jpg

Opened up the girls a little more with some LST and tucking some of the bigger fan leave down.
Temps and rh are holding strong.
Also turned the dimmer on my light up a little to about 40%-45%ish.20211228_171228.jpg20211228_171232_HDR.jpg20211228_171235_HDR.jpg20211228_171238_HDR.jpg20211228_171242.jpg

Its been 4 1/2 weeks since they sprouted and almost 2 1/2 weeks in veg. I plan on a 5 to 6 week veg and it looks like the girls are right on track.

Damn those are growing quick! Nice set up too And I agree. Always pains me to pull leaves off or cut away anything other than when topping or final trim. I see lollipoped crops and I’m like damnnnn lol. I just see leaves as energy the plant used to make and then also maybe so potential energy they can later use. Removing leaves for me feels like I’m wasting the plants energy or something :)
Probably not much validity in my assumptions but hey haha

Thank you. Thick bulges are never a bad thing lol.

Do you have any experience in scrog nets?
Zero! I do not think I have it in me yet to even pull one off with canopy coverage. I am also notorious for putting plants out of tent. Brining them inside home and working on them in there cause of the conditions in garage this time of year

I mean I even take the two front pots out of tent to get access to the back two even when watering. I water very very slowly lol

I’m brewing up what I’d coin a Canna-cell Rotating circular table like platform and I can just rotate the whole foot print in one shot

Think fancy Asian food restaurant with the spiny thing in the middle
