First Time Doing Photos: 4 x Bruce Banner #3 Under Mars-Hydro FC-E6500!

Day 4 of flower.

Added a dehumidifier to the tent, and i am wondering if i can reuse the collected water in my auto pot reservoir? If anyone knows if this would be ok I'd appreciate some info as googling is giving VERY conflicting answers on it.

Now at day 8 of flower, and I wanted to ask if i should defoliate and remove lower bud sites now, or wait until day 14.

If someone with experience could guide me i would really appreciate it.

It’s not going to hurt any doing some now.
I tend to take for the first two weeks of flower.
Even push to the third sometimes.

I talked with some experienced growers who recommended i wait until they have flowered for 14-21 days, and at that time i should do a full round of lollipopping in order to avoid stressing them during their stretch period. Does that sound like a good approach?

Obviously i dont want to limit my plants by overdoing it.

Edit: Fuck it. I had some drinks and decided to remove lower growth and leaves.

Figured it has long enough to go to recover regardless. Will post new progress pictures in a few days or so.

Day 10 of flower, and does not look like they cared at all that i removed all that lower growth.

Stretching like crazy and drinking 3+gallons of water per day now.

 

[casuallyhobo]

Day 14 of flowering. They seem to be done stretching, and so it was time for some defoliation.

Tomorrow i will be adding a second net and spread them out more properly to ensure maximum coverage.

 

[casuallyhobo]

Day 17 of flower. Second net has gone up, but it is one ment for a 4x4, so i should probably have had it at the bottom while the bigger one was put at the top.

Lesson learned for next time.

Day 19 of flower. Starting to get a nice fruity smell.

Can't wait for the buds to start properly fattening up, cause, damn, there is a lot of them!

Day 23 of flower and starting to smell real nice!

Thank you for the kind words!

I am pleasantly surprised to see how they are doing, and my goal is to get 1KG per harvest. Hopefully i can get somewhere near that with this round.

Day 27 of flower. Took a couple of photos during the dark period.

Great branching my friend.
Nice work.
Have you been plucking fan leaves?
They seem to be missing a few.
They need them don't take anymore if you are plucking.
If not.

Stay safe

Thank you, always reassuring to hear. I'm quite inexperienced still, so always worried I'm doing something i shouldn't.

I did a big round of defoliation at day 14 of flower as they had stopped stretching at that point, but i have not touched them since besides removing the occasional new bud popping up on the bottom part of the plant.

I'm guessing i should not mess around with them anymore and just let them finish up on their own from here on out?

Cleaning out underneath is good.
Must be the strain I apologize for insinuating you took them.
Your doing great Amigo.
Everything looks nice and healthy.
Keep up the good work.

Nah, i did take probably more than i should have during the massive defoliation at f14. Live and learn for my next grow.
