This is BF's Triple Cheese, day 30 since flip to 12/12, grown Vertical, 5 plants.
This is from a plant, pheno #3, I did a major Super Cropping during veg and she seems to be responding well to it.

Love these little snow balls and the start of trich formation, this stage of growth is so much fun.

This is phemo #2 filling out nicely. Need to pull them from the tent an rearrange the branches.

Filling out well for 4th week of flower.

The vertical strategy is looking to work well for you!! Very interesting to see how the finished product will look.

Close up of the above pic. Just noticed this weekend that I broke a major branch on Triple Cheese Pheno # 2, will remove it when the plants are pulled from the tent on Wednesday to rearrange the buds and re-net.

Update: Day 35 12/12

Couple of things going on. Pulled the ladies from the tent today and did a bit of work on them. Removed the netting, removed large fan and some undergrowth, repositioned the buds for best light, retied back to the screen and reinstalled the netting.

Few before and after pics of the ladies.

Awesome!

That’s an understatement, but then you already knew that GT.

This grow is excellent! Thanks for such a great journal!

May I second that?

You know I hope non believers do not look, they always want to get into an argument about defoliation and I am tired of hearing it.
I know it works and don't need someone telling me I fucked up doing it.

What’s it matter that they say anything, when we all now know you’re a master at this? Let them get it out of their systems while you sit back and happily hit a bowl.

It’s helpful to have some friendly reply already scripted. Something like, “Thanks for sharing. I know what I’m doing.”
Gosh gr.... that was the most fun I’ve had running through a journal in a long time. When you tied on the nets my blood started pumping faster. You’re amazing, you know that, right? I don’t think they’re ever gonna let you forget it.

Thanks. I needed a shot of incredible growing more than I realized. I’ll sleep soundly after that.

Thanks for dropping by Sue, always good to see friends.
Thanks for the kind words, you made me laugh, I needed that! Now if I just had a hug!

Nite y'all!

It’s only virtual, but you have a good imagination, I’m certain of it.

Real quick, I went to the eye glass place today, the lense keeps falling out. Well this weekend it happened again and the screw came out.
Ok, so I walk into VisionWorks, see two ladies working with two female customers. There were others roaming around and one of the ladies ask if I was there to pick up glasses? I said "No I am just here for a screw!" She began to laugh and then I heard more laughter and giggling, I looked around and the place had about 15 women in there, no men.
I apologized to them all and they laughed again. Blushing I was!

 

[SweetSue]

Hahaha!

Oh.... thanks for that.

 

[Grandpa Tokin]

Hilarious!

Gr8...I missed or didnt see whether you are using the CMH 4k or 3k bulbs?

Gr8...I missed or didnt see whether you are using the CMH 4k or 3k bulbs?

I use the 3100K bulbs for both veg and flower.

Thanks GR.

When I worked on the ladies on Wed. I removed a broken branch that had died on me.
TC Pheno #2

Closeup

Here it is removed from the plant.

The reason it broke was I had Super Cropped it in veg close to the trunk of the plant and when rearranging the branches on the screen I move it in the opposite direction from the SC, it was brittle and snapped. Did not notice it until it started wilting from the break.

I have had to tape a number of branches this grow because when moving them under the screen they end up bending double. so I tape them.

I need a recommendation, what can I do for low humidity, leaves are showing signs of low humidity.
I normally don't have an issue but this winter has been dry.
Thinking of just putting a coffee pot warmer with some water in it, won't add much heat or draw much power.

Ayahuasca Purple, Have a feeling this plant is going to run 10 plus weeks.

Group shot, 2/13

Group shot 2/05

All is doing well, and the fragrance is divine. The AP looks to be a couple of weeks behind the TC. Running around 650 to 700 ppm, 6 cycles per night with around 30 to 40% runoff. Been running Liquid KoolBloom for the past two rez fills and will replace this with the Dry KoolBloom formula for the next few rez fills.

As always GR your plants are amazing to look at. Great job.

cheers, enjoy your squishing.
