Hippie 66 First Indoor Attempt

[Hippie66]

Hahaha, I didn't realize her head was even in the picture. My dogs love being around the plants, I think it's the smell of soil to be honest.
My tent is a 3x3x5.5 with 12 plants. I like to run my autos while I veg my photo plants as a time killer. So I'll use 1 or 2gal depending on the size of autos (so right now only 2 2gal pots) and then I keep my photo plants in 1gal pots for as long as I can. I think I could fit 9 2gal pots max but that would stress me out.
What size pots are you using again? Do you rotate your plants ever?

The pots are 3 gallon. Probably a bit small, but too late now. I try and rotate daily, every other day at least

It will be 5 months by the time they finish.

Ok cool, that's great to do with them. I try to do the same at least every other day and for me 3gal has been what I use for my photo plants as well.
I look forward to seeing how big your girls get over the next few weeks.

Please explain to me how you trained your BB in that fashion?

Which one? The fluxing?

I let them grow until they had hit 7 to 8 nodes then I cut down to the 3rd node and removed any growth under the 3rd node.
So it went from this..

To this..

And as the new shoots grew out I could hold down those 2 branch's

It's been fun to give this a shot with such a young plant.

That's painful to even consider doing to one of me girls. I'm sure the results are favorable in the long term but...

Haha, I feel that pain every time I strip her of leaves. Def worth the time spent veggin longer though. They will grow a lot like the Ganesh I showed you a picture of but I'll have better control over the branch's.
Have you defoliated any of your leaves yet?

Several times. I lollipopped most of them, have 3 left to do, but I have taken the upper foliage several times

How high up did you lollipop?

 

[Hippie66]

I left approximately 6-8" on most of the branches. Then thinned out the canopy. Like I said I have three left to finish this weekend. They fill in so fast

 

[MsSinful]

Should be cool to watch them put on some weight.

 

[Hippie66]

So here's the girls at 24 days into 12/12. Really starting to get happy. Feeding once a week with botanicare pbp bloom and calmag at nearly full strength. Three weeks tiI start to flush, five to harvest if all goes as planned.

 

[Hippie66]

32 days after flip, and all is for the most part well. Have a bit of nute burn on the 3 bubblegum going on, however the other 6 got the same dosage with no adverse affects. Odd how that works. It's been over a week now and they have received nothing but ph'd water since then. Buds are still adding weight, don't see it as a huge issue, just some crusted up fans

 

[Hippie66]

I did some trim work on my ladies this weekend. Anyone care to weigh in? At this point, the BG have 3 weeks left, PT has 4 and BD has 5. I want to give a light feeding this week to the BG, then start a 2 week flush. Will that give me enough time to completely flush? Or should I just stick with pH'd water. Been two weeks since last feed and while the others tolerated it well, the BG got a bit burned last feed.[/IMG]
