happy saturday morning 420 mag,
time for an update,
watered the girls again this morning, I held back on daily watering and will let them fill these pots out more before then.
they seem to be handling the lst well with lost of branching going on, I trimmed away some of the lower leaves to let more light and aair get to the new branches. only one seems to be lagging behind a bit, hopefully it will catch up soon.
steady as she goes. taking my time here and looking to maximize the use of my space.
cheers for stopping by

Cheers mate
It's fun watching them grow and react to the the LST. I am still trying to get my head around the training and pruning side of things but from what I can picture in my mind lol I think I am building a far better structure then my first run.
good times really, now the weather outside just needs to warm up and it will all sweet all round haha.

Little update. Those 400 watt lights are not very safe, CMH needs very low frequency, HPS ballast (E-ballasts) ~>300 KHZ. Far to hide. I'm getting a 315 watt HOR on core and coil ballast but need SUSD transformer cuz 250/315 are 220V. Only.

Thanks for the update millert,
I know nothing about electrical stuff so probably a good thing that I forked out a bit extra and got the cmh ballast/adapter plug/globe combo.

Yep. I'm not sold on vertical bulb on a reflector. No first pass light. I'm still looking.

2 updates in one day phew lol
I have been busy this evening after work spending some time in the tent with the girls. I can see roots poking out the bottom of all but the smallest one, the one on the front right.
here is the results of this evenings lst and prunning
Front left, this girl just does not want to be tamed lol, she has pulled a wire peg up out the ground already, she gets the 2ml steel wire now she does lol
front right, the smallest of the four, this girl got all twisted around when I bent here over lol ( this all sounds so wrong lol) and some of her branches got a bit stunted. I have pruned away some of the worst twisted ones and opened her up a bit.
Rear left, this plant is branching like crazy and the one that I am most happy with the structure so far.
rear right, this girl is another happy camper, powering along nicely and branching out.
looking forward to seeing how they recover tomorrow morning, cheers

Good Morning everyone,
I have been super busy working this week and have had no time for updates and only enough energy to read a few subbed threads and push the like button a few times. I work as a conservation worker and its tree planting season so its all systems go, today there is a storm moving through here so I am home today and had the time for a few pictures.
first here is a photo from a week or so ago of one of my work sites. I planted all the plants on the left hand side and look after the area.
I am lucky to work in many places that have views like this one
on to the plants.
I have been feeding every second day at full strength lucas for coco. EC 1.4 PH 5.6-5.8 (one time I put a few to many drops in)
I flushed through 8Litres of plan ph'd water on Tuesday, as one plant is showing a slight yellowing and resumed feeding normally today.

front right
rear right, this one has thrown out a half yellow leaf i tried to take a closer up pic of the yellowing
rear left
not 100% sure where to go from here re feeding schedule, I have read a lot about daily and multiple times a day feeding in coco once the pot is filled with roots but not sure about it. last grow I fed daily andd nearly burnt them and had to back it right off for a while. One thing I was tossing about in my head was to keep feeding every second day and do a plain ph'd water feed in between. What do you guys think?
Cheers
PS.
last grow I totally overgrew my space hence why this time I have been training them over, how much bigger should I let them get before commencing flowering? I was thinking another week or so and let them get out over the edge of the pots?

Been hard at it.. I wished victorias skyline looked like that.. Thanks man, appreciate the work photo update & plants...
