Quick update:
Gave everybody their first full strength feed of AN GMB on Sunday and everybody loved it!

Going to defoliate all of the girls in a week.(except for the one at the back)
Mothers are growing daily.
And the buds are coming along as well.
Going to give her just water from now on.

Still a few weeks left in her, noticing bud growth every day.

Looking good Mac

Thanks, Im looking forward to my first harvest.

Another quick update. New beans. Gorilla glue #4 x dark Ryder reg auto’s not sure when I’ll run them. At least one this season I think.

And 20/35 clones were transplanted into anything I could find. Got through 26 before I ran out of containers. 20/26 had visible roots. Haven’t checked remaining 9. Need to get more containers ASAP

Cheers for stopping bye!

defoliated my first SoG run at the end of week three. Left only the top two fan leaves. Going for light penetration, I think this is a good idea. Will post pics later for anyone interested.

 

[Pennywise]

Post some pics I'd like to see them.

 

[Macdaddy420]

As I mentioned earlier I would post some pics.
This is a before and after of my self topped girl that is now 3 weeks into flower.

There’s only a few weeks left on this girl, I’m seeing this get very frosty.

Before and after of defoliated clones.

My one girl that’s taller than the lights

Let’s see how they develop.

 

[Macdaddy420]

I’m interested to see what will happen following the defoliation. I’ve read that it increases bud production but am yet to see any real buds on any plant yet.
I may just be expecting more than what I’m going to get. May need to readjust my expectations.

 

[Pennywise]

Grow them out and see what happens.

Lol that’s the plan! Just an impatient newbie

 

[Pennywise]

All in good time lol

Yeah, they gave a pretty good stretch for 90% Indicas. I’m hoping the defoliation will counter the large internode spacing.

 

[Pennywise]

Best way to do that is lower your lights

 

[Macdaddy420]

I can’t drop my light anymore, it’s almost 6” from my canopy, maybe raising my clones higher at the start may be better?

 

[Pennywise]

Yes, plants that stretch for light need more intensity.

 

[Macdaddy420]

Yes, plants that stretch for light need more intensity.

Even including the stretch after switching to flower?
They started the 12/12 at barely 3”

 

[Pennywise]

Those have a lot of space between the nodes.

 

[Macdaddy420]

Those have a lot of space between the nodes.

So raising my next run of clones 6-10” would do good

 

[Pennywise]

Yes, more light will tighten up those nodes.
