6th day in flower and looking healthy.

Your clones are looking solid.
Look forward to seeing how they finish.

Thanks. The suspense is killing me.

Should I put a fan on the ground? I have two 6" fans above the canopy.

 

[7Dust2]

Fan is just for air circulation doesn't matter but top is usually where everyone puts them

Hey @Persuader hope you are well my friend.
Garden looks great.
I always keep a 12" oscillating fan on the floor.
Keeps from building up any dampness under her skirt.
I recommend it.

Stay safe

Thanks Bill. Time to go to the store.

I didn't think about that. Yeah it helps with water on floor and help dry out things for sure. I have a heater on the floor cause I got one bag heavy heavy holding water at bottom had to lift her up and let dry. Should have fan myself inside. But I have fans on vents hoses and a huge carbon filter that sucks all air out of tent if I put it on high. It's way to strong for my tent

2 weeks in flower and they definitely stretched.

 

[Persuader]

21 days in and did some defoliation. Here are some before and after pics.

Good morning @Persuader hope you are having a good day my friend.
Ladies look great today.
When I do my post strech defol I don't touch anything above the light line.
They need those fan leaves to build buds.
They are going to concentrate on growing fans back now instead of what you want them to do.
In 10 days it will be full of fans again.
And you lost 10 days.
Just my 2 cents.
Everyone does what works for them.
Keep up the good work.

Stay safe
Bill

Sorry I didn't mean to piss you off.
Just wanted to share my process.
You haven't wrecked your ladies, don't worry.
Just something for you to keep in mind going forward.
Your garden is stunning my friend.
Very happy girls.

Stay safe

Have you thought about LST?
You have a couple main colas sticking up.
I tie them over and drop my light right down on top of the canopy for better penatration.
You could flatten that canopy easily and get more energy deeper.

I was debating what to do with them. I will get them bent over today. How many inches from the canopy do you recommend for the light?

By the end of flower I was probably under a foot from the girls.
If you can I'd go a few inches at a time.
Then see how they react.
If they are still praying drop it again and see how they react.
You want to be as close as you can and still be in your foot print.
As close as you can without any light or heat stress.
So by the time they are finished I'm a foot or less away from the tops.
But like I said a bit at a time and see how they take the extra joules.
If you see light stress just back up a bit and watch.

Stay safe
