Actually I think it was the heavy watering.. they got 192oz each yesterday
That's a lot of time with a spray bottle!

Yeah it probably took me 45 minutes but I got very minimal run off.. it was perfect.
Have you kept up with the GreenSafe stuff? When you do your harvest summary it would be great if you could describe your application rates and schedule.
Also, wish me luck!

Hey everybody,
We’ve got some serious bud growth going on these days! I’m trying to keep them watered as best as I possibly can so they grow fat. Hopefully these colas bulk up.
Today is flip plus 29, first day of week 5. 123 days total.

I can't see any reason why yours won't fatten up like the rest of the great plants in these grows! Looking great in there Chef.

Thanks Shed. These plants definitely give me a good feeling based on how they look currently. I’m surprised how far out on the fan leaves the frost goes.. I’m not sure if you can tell from the two closer shots, but fans are quite sticky.
Now that I've zoomed in I'm even more impressed!

So I just realized it’s been a week since my last update! I’m sorry everyone! My boss has been on vacation the last week so I’ve been working insane hours. Today I’ll bring you all up to speed.
Monday I decided I was wasting too much space in my 4 x 4. I really want to flip another plant or two, so I had to switch my set up around. I pulled the two GsC plants out of the 2x3 and put them in the 4 x 4, putting the 4 x 4 on 12/12. I moved all the youngsters into the small tent. As to not do wrong by our great sponsors, I made sure to keep the equipment the same when moving over.
I didn’t realize how floppy the plants had gotten until I pulled them out. They both were literally dragging on the ground (or would have been), so I strung them up as I’m one to do. I also had to make sure the panels were about the same distance as they were before. The girls were thriving and I really don’t want them to slow down now, in the middle of week (at the time) 5.
Today is the first day of week 6 (flip + 36, day 130 total) and I’ve upped their water volumes to a steady 192oz every other day. Very slight run off and perky leaves, so they’re living their best lives. I also decided Monday would be my last application of the @GreenSafe foliar. The buds are just getting to large to be sure I’m avoiding them well. I’d rather not risk mold. I am still applying the amendment to their water though. We should see some calyx ballooning in the following weeks.
I’m happy with how they look, generally… I gotta say I’m not a huge fan of the bud structure. First of all it doesn’t have the look as though it’ll have that crazy frost bag appeal where the calyxes look like they’re covered in diamond dust. Maybe the swell will change my mind, but these gals are looking like a mess of trim work as well.. I know you all know how much of a pain that can be. Regardless, they’re very sticky and they’re smelling great.. hopefully the smoke is worth all the trim work.
that’s it for today. I’m gonna pick up my cadence of updates through the finish so we can get a better idea of their fattening.

Great job shifting them without any damage, and more room to move! I like that you mentioned this:
They have so much time left that reserving judgement is an excellent idea!
because it means you were really thinking everything through step by step.

Can anyone kiss butt here or just @InTheShed ? 
I think they needed more room to breathe. Remember I had very minor spots of botrytis on two of my GSC plants so make sure you've got plenty of 24/7 air circulation.

Hey Chef or even the other butt-kisser pollen chucker @beez0404: does this look pollinated to you? It's been a week since the second round of pollination. This is flip day 33 if that helps.
And I know I really need to wait for seed pods to show, but in the meantime...opinions!

@InTheShed aka KOBKs. How do those pistils look compared to the rest of the pistils (unpollinated pistils) on the plant? The ends look right shriveled up like they are.
I pollinated almost every flower, but some of them still have white pistils. Here's another pic.
I'm gonna call them pollinated.
Thanks Chef! 
How long does it take before you can usually spot a seed starting to grow?
