So I think things are shaping up pretty nice for only two weeks into 12/12...
Once I give the branches some support we’ll be ready to rock n roll ...!!!...
I’ve been thinking about also putting up a couple T5 integrated LED stripe lights... I’ve still got like four of them laying around not being used... they’ll help with the supplemental lighting in the back behind the plants under the scrubber... And then maybe one on each side wall...
I’ve been hanging this LED corn bulb vertically in front of them...
I love it now that things are finally cooling off around here...!!!...
I’m thinking I’ll fix them up a bit once the stretch is done. Which I’m figuring will be in about a week.
Unless they go crazy and shoot through the roof in the next seven days, I think I’ll be fine.
They are a bit taller than I would have liked but it’s all good...
I have a feeling that these are gonna fill in nice by the end of the show ...!!!...
So here we are at three weeks into 12/12 ...!!!...
I’m VERY happy with the results thus far ...!!!...
I have a feeling that I’m gonna have a nice yield come harvest time ...!!!...
I still need to switch the bulb out for an hps... I haven’t flowered under an hps bulb for about a year now... I figure I’ll give it a shot again...!!!...
It seems to me that using the mh bulb gets you a bit more trichomes on the buds compaired to using an hps bulb which may give slightly more dense buds... just something I have noticed...!!!...
Plus I still want to put up those LED’s...
also plants still need to be supported...
As you can see most of the main tops have been bent over parallel to the floor...
Ive been doing this low stress training since the start of the stretch... Every time I would bend them over like that they would go right back up by the next day...
well the last time I did it was about three days ago and they still haven’t went back up... I really think that they were standing back up so fast because of the stretching hormones... Well I think the stretching was pretty much done the last time I bent them over and that’s why they haven’t stood back up yet...
It would have been nice to have a screen under them but I’ll just support them with some bamboo ...!!!...
These things are killin* it for three weeks 12/12...
I also installed a few of those LED T5 integrated strip lights on each side... I really wanted to put a few on the back wall but I didn’t want to take all the plants outta the room... once they’re in there I really don’t like taking them outta the room unless I have to ...!!!...
So I never really said but these plants were all put into flower at roughly three foot tall on average between the six plants...
They all stretched roughly one and a half foot, so that’s about 50% their size... not too bad...!!!...
They’re really starting to put on some resin content now...
The smells are also building more and more by the day...
I’m getting some berry type smells from the #2 plant and a much more musky type smell from the #1...
I can’t really get to smelling the others but I can touch a few buds here and there if I stretch my arm back far enough, so I’ll try to get some smells of the #3 and #4 plants for the next update...!!!...
When walking into the room the overall smell is just DANK !!!
