Apologies for HPS lighting. Balanced off some of the def's shown week previous.
One of them is hell bent on eating the higher fan leaves though. Alas I'll let it do what it wants, can't fix them too easilly this late into the game.

The frost is real!
Not sure how much longer they'll run - I feel I have a good 2 to 3 weeks left minimum.

Got this runty looking clone to play with once they're done. Thinking about vegging it for ages and scrogging it.
Sposed to be summit like a sour bomb - I dunno.

Either way will be my first non auto to play with. Good practice for training.

The clone has been tied down.

No updates to give on the 3 trans yet. Am starting to think I'll have to tie them up to stop them listing over soon though. Buds are bulking up fast.

Disaster struck this morning. My plant on the back right collapsed under her own weight and folded the main stem over low to the base.
Got her up right and she's not broken the stem. But I'm freaked!

Got her tied up and some canes now. Should I expect anything adverse to happen following this?

Tied up now. Main colas on back right and front left are very heavy. Stems on back left are just a bit wimpy. Bud doesnt seem as dense though.
Hopefully the stress of being tied up and tugged around won't harm them too much.

Hell of a shock this morning to see the big girl like she had snapped in half though!!

No adverse reaction from being tied up and the one that tried to kill herself seems happy. All is good.

To give you some understanding how big the main cola on the one that fell over is - 1 litre mason jar.

The clone is doing well, staked her down and began training her to be a big circle around the pot before letting her take off.
I want to maximise the size of the tent for this girl once she is ready to take the whole space.

She's 27 days on from being snipped off the mother.

So updates...

91 days from seed.
Dunno how much longer I'll need to run these for now. I suspected they'd go longer than I thought once they went into full bloom. Keep feeling there's at least a week left on the back left and maybe 2 0 3 weeks on the other two. Any one wanna take a punt?

33 days from being cut from mother.

Giving her some intensive training. Aim is single plant - big scrog net. Fill 3x3 room with her.

Looking good man, I like the 1 plant scrogs personally. Some nice looking buds growing too, ill keep an eye on this for sure.
Yay some love!

I'm more excited about the single plant scrog that the initial grow of 3 plants. I want to create a monster! :D
 
No doubt there about a monster, I've been playing with the idea of a screen in my tent but I want to get some breeding done before I start scrogging in there, been a good while since I've done a nice scrog with a nice even canopy. I'd definitely say a couple weeks on the flowering 3, do you have one of those lighted magnifiers from radioshack or a jewelers loupe to get a better look at the trichs?

I'm already a month into vegging my clone. Looking to run her in veg until my trans are finished. Defoliated her today too to get more light into the canopy.

I bought a loupe but I'll be damned if I can get a proper look at trics. I'll just stick to my S6 camera with a macro lens blu tacced on lol.

Will get some pics up later today.

I did a feel test on the buds and the top colas are hard as nails. Expecting good things from them. My drying space is 16 degrees Celsius and 65% humidity. Should be a long slow dry for them.
