I come to y'all with hat in hand, ready for the worst of the worst trolling.

Here I stand, prostituting my plants for thoughts.

I think they're doing great but clearly I have an extreme bias.

So tell me what you see. Is it good, bad or ugly?

They're still in veg, they've had mites (still fighting them) and they've been heat stressed really fucking bad one time.

The big ones (Blue Mystic) are 71 days old.

The small ones (Kaya Gold) are 40 days old.

Screen was installed late in the grow for height control which is aiming to be a late game scrog.

Overall they are looking great - I would clean up (trim) the bottom half, as you have a net setup, more so as you have mites. No point in keeping that much growth below the canopy -cut back and let the tops take all the glory! bottom will become a great breeding ground for more mites. Goodluck with the mites, its harder to treat (in my experience) once they are in the net, so try to rid them now, before flowering, and remove all the veg below to imprive airflow and canopy growth

They look fine. Healthy and happy. Obviously you burned them a little earlier, but they seem to have mostly recovered.

put small plants in bigger pots before they grow into screen. Or is that the final pot for those?

They are the final pots now. I had planned to grow them in the 5gal pails but the severe sativa stretch I was hoping for in the first month didn't happen. So I'll finish them in the black pots and try again next round.

Just a cheap bastard's experiences have lead me to the following issues with similiar set ups. That rigid screen is going to be a BE-OTCH to remove later. Plants are too close together. And should be on the floor. Just my personal frustrations in same tent. Do what works. Plants look good. Health to all and their girls. Peace.

Girl, singular.

Only one showed sex, the other Blue Mystic Has primordials but I can't tell what they are yet and the Kayas are too young to show anything yet.

Here's hoping for a male Blue to go with my girl.

Thank you. You asked. The rigid has to go though. Peace.

I thought the rigid would be good. I still have chicken wire, orange snow fencing, trellis netting, survey twine, rope, chain link fence, wood and if it comes down to it, I would pay 100 gigalos to hold my weed down with their dicks.

That last one might not fit well but you get the idea that I'm open to change. What would be best?

I hear ya. Been down a few too many of them roads. No big box stores in the early 80's. I use 4"x4" braided synthetic trellis netting myself. I tie my own nets to kill time. But a trellis net. Larger than 3" openings. No stem damage. Flexible and adjustable in sections. Easy to cut to remove. Peace.

They don't look too bad.

I think you could have topped a lot more and sooner looking at the stem formations. The plants also look like they have stretched a little too much, did you have the light set too high for the last couple weeks?. How much light W are you using?.

You need a real scrog net, that one doesn't look like it would be very good for tucking once you get better and can create more tops at level.

I would also always recommend coco as one of the best improvements for any new grower wanting to increase veg growth and end yield (excuse me if that is coco). I don't know if you are that new but it still applies.
