Welcome Acolyte

I found myself with a little spare time today, so as promised, here are some photos under a more natural light colour.

 

[LED Acolyte]

Looks pretty healthy to me. Super tight internode stacking. You're in good shape!

 

[Nerfbane]

Thanks LA Lots of pistil hairs shooting out at all the nodes, I need a better camera for taking some close ups. I'm starting to think I might be ok at this given some practice.

 

[Light Addict]

Yep your on the path my friend, She looks great very busy little girl +reps

 

[Nerfbane]

Thanks man I never thought she'd look so bushy the way she started off. I'm thinking I should start taking some leaves off now, lots of fan leaves overlapping and as close as pages in a book. But not a single yellow patch to be seen.

 

[CloudFactory]

Great grow! Interested to see how the early flip turns out yield wise. Subbed!

 

[Nerfbane]

Thanks Cloud, welcome aboard

 

[Light Addict]

Yeah get the defol done, as soon as you can m8. looking real nice and squat though so should be great when she stretches.

 

[henman]

Looking very nice mate! You did a great work at saving that poor thing.
Def subbed and keeping track of this! I'm always for saving helpless creatures.

 

[Nerfbane]

Thanks henman, welcome to my thing

I think I know which leaves I am going to take out after a good stare. I was wondering, does anyone know how trimming leaves goes rather than removing them totally?

 

[LED Acolyte]

Whatever is left of the leaf still works as a leaf.

 

[Light Addict]

Yep just a shorter leaf, but you will have stressed your girl a tad. Tucking them under other growth is something I use. The only time I've heard of cutting them is either for a clone. Or its to wreck your plant, meaning and this is just going by memory; but their is a supposed method to promote a more triched up plant. Not sure if it works or whether its just hokum. the method is to simply cut all your leaves on the plant or remove the center most finger on each.

 

[Nerfbane]

Hooray I have a fever. That always makes things......Surreal.

Thanks for chiming in about leaf trimming guys, it was the stress it causes I was wondering about.

So the guy who dropped my girl on me dropped over a few nights ago, he was pretty impressed with how I turned her around, and then told me to get defoliating. I've been cutting crap out in small goes, old leaves and thin twiggy branches that were never going to do anything, and doing some training of the lower limbs like Acolyte shows in his journal. Of course nowhere near as well. I'll try and get some photos up soon.

 

[Light Addict]

Yep more pics! Sounds like your finding your path though which is great. Keep it up!

 

[Nerfbane]

Here be some pics.

I think she's looking healthy. That's about where my expertise drys out I'm not real concerned about getting a huge crop, I'll be happy if I don't stuff it up before it's harvest time.

 

[henman]

She's looking beautiful nerfbane! I'm by far no expert on these things as well but she's looking healthy I would say!

 

[Techman]

Looking Great!

 

[Light Addict]

Yeah my friend your doing fine and dandy! Them girls look very healthy. Keep it up and your going to have some great results!

 

[Nerfbane]

Photos photos photos! I really wish I had a wider space to put her in, she's far too bushy for where she is, and on one side the limbs were pretty under-developed. Certainly gonna go hard from a young age training the next one.
