Thanks! No big plans so far. Kinda letting her do her thing. Probably gonna start ponytailing tomorrow so the under growth can catch up a bit.

I'm using Alaskan Fish Fertilizer for veg. It's a 5 : 1: 1 and for her 2 feedings so far she loves it. My flower nutes are just a cactus food. 2 : 7 : 7 with some micros added in.

Anybody have any advice on how many nodes I should wrap up in the ponytail? Obviously the lower I go I'm lighting older growth. I figure 1 or 2 nodes but any advice is appreciated!

Also she just finished her first 7 finger fans! I can now smell her when I walk in the bedroom too.

I'd go with the top tewo sets of leaves, if that makes sense. Pretty much just use your best judgement to let light get to the newest area to grow up and almost level.
For about a week or so, 5-6 hours a day.

17 days old. Got her ponytailed for awhile today. I moved the last 2 CFLs over so she is under 184 Watts now. I figured I'm moving the lights up almost daily anyways so I should be able to catch any heat burn that may happen. But with the fan it probably isn't an issue.

Hope everyone's having a nice day!

Hi Serenity's your girl is looking great and that is spot on with the ponytailing , extra light is always good

Feel free to make reflectors or something whilst ponytailing. Hang extra cfls down or something, try to cram them in that new growth area, you won't burn em buddy.

I've never seen the "pony-tailing" approach before, really cool stuff!

 

[Xenonrae]

It's the smallest things that affect in such a positive way!

Agreed. Whatcha thinkin. 2 - 3 inches from new growth?

Yea this thread is the first for me also. Cant wait to see how it turns out.
Xenonrae, is this a replacement for topping?

Sounds about right. I generally take the newest growth and the decent sized fan leaves closest if that makes sense.

and no, I use this in addition to topping, check out my journal and you'll see what i'm talking about with my LSD-25 auto.
Or, I'll leave this here.

I absolutely cannot believe how big she is! Nice demonstration of the ponytail technique, I've never seen it before either. Growers helping growers helping growers. Love it!
