The making of a beautiful beast in in

[564xxl]

Just such a proud parent gotta show this young beast off.
Trauma feminized seed from Lost Labs Generics
Single plant In this photo
Germinated in late August!
Was the spare seed .... germinated 2 the other was my indoor grow
This one germinated so I popped it outside to struggle through late winter cold spring in southern Oz and then some truly stupidly hot days including 46c day
Went nuts in veg so I started experimenting... has been through schwazzing technique 4 times twice in veg and twice in early flowering and the last time over 5 days with any leaf extending over 3 cm from stem removed
All stems during veg stage increasingly weighted down to remain horizontal
Grown in bag outdoor but sunk in 50cm hole below plastic outdoor greenhouse ( those cheep plastic ones) to restrict overall above ground height. About 5-10cm gap around bag to ensure ventilation .
Flap of plastic greenhouse only closed on cold nights and on rainy days
Grown in coco coir perlite mix and fed on max dose Millers AB with ultimatePK, C4 and Vitalize in line with recommendations
Sprayed 3 times weekly during stretch to current with Super Si to stunt stretch
Indoor plant a monster and about 5-6 weeks ahead in cycle
Yellow in photos is sunlight
Can't say I have ever seen this many Pistils this early
using 2 aroma reducing lavender gel blobs outside door greenhouse and planted lavenders, mint, sage around opening to help mask early aroma
Will transfer to indoor tent later stages as that girl is 5-6 weeks ahead
Really enjoying watching this go into full beast mode after being treated with extreme experimentation due to being the spare... but she never gave up...despite being stripped practically bare of foliage 4 times
Great genetics not to hermi
Comments welcome
Will post growth photos

At first I thought it must’ve had ducks foot in it, which is a strain which might explain the three bladed leaves.

By the time the plant starts flowering, it should have at least five blades. I think you’ve got some stress going on there which would cause that mutation unless it’s strain related but imo it’s probably stress caused by “ stripped practically bare of foliage 4 times “ hence the weird shaped flowers.

You could of had colas if you had left it alone now you got ittty bitty flowers; there’s a good reason why we don’t do these experiments anymore but hey ho you gotta learn and if you don’t experiment, you’re not gonna so good luck and all the best mate

I was thinking this over and I’m not berating you.

I can get misunderstood because the way I speak I tend to be straight up & It can come off as a abrasive when it’s never meant to be.

I’ve done things like that in the past, so I would be I can’t remember the name however you kwim.

as said good luck and enjoy the adventure

Yep you are straight up abrasive ...
And you are not misunderstood
Perception is reality
No misunderstanding at all
You assume I don't know how to grow when I clearly state my main plant is indoor and awesome
Not sure if you have ever tried schwazzing
3 fingered leaves is a common immediate result of schwazzing ... it's a stress response not a potency or yield marker
So before coming on to a friendly thread and trying to make someone feel bad, at least do your research
My yields from schwazzing are significantly higher... this plant has got far more bud sites and pistil density than my normal grown Trauma

There are a lot of stacked pistils forming at multiple nodes with excellent early bud site development

There is also very decent structural stacking – Internodal spacing looks fairly tight, which supports good flower density later on.

The three fingered growth is on newer growth, not deformed or clawed and the newest growth is 5 or 7 fingered but removed. The existence of the three fingered growth is a direct result of the schwazzing ... the first time 11 to 9, second time 9-7, third 7-5 and most recent 5-3 fingers on immediate new growth ... after that it returns

Schwazzing is designed to cause exactly that ... stress responses .... redirecting energy to bud sites .... and more bud sides and secondary branching through better light penetration

And if people didnt experiment then not only wouldn't we have the fine varieties we have today, but we wouldn't have the various growth techniques that are known to increase strength and yield

Anyway talk about a buzz killer ... but you know that already .... man I'm in my 60s I don't need the negative energy ... go do some yoga man...

I throw out an olive leaf & see were it goes.

I didn’t think you didn’t you don’t know how grow & am also in my 60s so I am no young gun looking to piss on your day.

It’s up to you forget the negativity it’s something we probably don’t need I’m not here to make folks feel bad… we’re both humans we both have our own crosses to bear why add weight.

Tell me more about your technique.
I’ve never heard of schwazzing
I’ve heard and seen for myself what stripping a plant does it obviously causes stress hence the 3 finger blades as you know I’m not arguing im asking about your technique as I’ve never heard of schwazzing maybe I know it in a different name.

I have never heard this term 'schwazzing' ?
Although it does look like hes lollipoping amd bending, creating main colas

Ultimate Guide to Schwazzing

Using the schwazzing method you can dramatically increase your yield! It takes time to master but we've generated cannabis yields north of 4 pounds per light. Here's our in-depth guide to get your schwazze process dialed.

Yup. Just changed the name to an old standard practice

As much as I have tried both myself i normally wouldn’t suggest however If you’re looking for a stress response would it not be faster to stake them that way your not messing with the flower formation yet still causes stress reaction & taking a lot of time to regrow after extreme defoliation.

Just a suggestion not a bashing

is that how you normally grow or is this just a experiment

I am not gonna go down the rabbit hole when it comes to defoliation that’s a hot topic.

Btw I don’t care how you grow that’s up to you ; your preference which you are entitled to.

The only reason I mentioned staking was that if you defoliate 4 x that’s 4 xs the chance of it actually harming were as staking is once & done as said it’s your grow & your choice I only offer a alternative that would cause the same stress reactions
