28 days into flower 21ish left, she packs on size and weight so fast her name is fitting. Bud after bud after cola after cola. 6 plants here in 1 gallon pots! I mean I am impressed, plus since they're monster croppers they seem to be A LOT stickier than the first time. I've been told this is a defense mechanism as it thinks it was eaten/destroyed before it got to reproduce so pumps out more bud sites and more thc to protect the flowers.

Made sense at the time. Extraordinary claims, need extraordinary proof.

PROOF 😁😁View attachment 1036750View attachment 1036751View attachment 1036752View attachment 1036753View attachment 1036754View attachment 1036755View attachment 1036756View attachment 1036757

At what point do I start cutting and bending?
I think you mean supercropping mate, . monster cropping is different, its taking cuttings from flowering plants to get MONSTERS. I think youre referring to LST (low stress training)and super cropping(bending to get an even canopy), I train and bend mine from the moment they can take, it,





Watch a few videos on the subject mate, should help you out

I dont really like this guy , hes a brand whore but his vids are clear and you can see the technique pretty well, this is how i learned. look at the state of my first grow.
I had to supercrop and LST last minute to help. And these are the vids I watched. Kyle kushmans series is really good

Cheers, Everything's good now plants replaced, the 3 autos that survived one's just got the chop, 2 next week, should have been 10, but shit happens life goes on. These 6 BigNug plus 3 widows survived their ordeal too

She looks nice mate, but I'm giving autos a miss after this. You can flower when you want with a photo, less is more. Look at my last post. I vegged my first grow fir 10 wks!. These got maybe 5 and there's as much if not more on this run. But 2 more plants per light. And there on 12/12 less money on leccy. Plus you get you're next plants fir free 😁Its a win win for me. I'm getting 3oz ish on my autos in 7 weeks on 18/6 or the same on a SOG in 8 weeks. Less soil, less work.

Only in Scotland mate? I'm not too far over the border north east

Just looked at this pic again properly, im pretty sure youve pulled her down early mate, theres far too many white pistils sticking out on her, they should have mostly turned ginger/orange and have pulled back so not so fluffy and hairy on the outer of the buds.

She smells so fresh and lemony lime, with something extra.
Larger colas are getting heavy now too defo time to get some support in there

I keep saying it, but I MUST upgrade my photographic equipment. This BigNug is covered in thick sticky triches/Resin. I also keep saying this but the rate that she puts on weight is something else it really is, with not a tiny bit of reduction in quality because of speed.
Nice bit of support added before they start snapping or bending stems over.
Thank god for alcohol spray or I'd be struggling to roll this joint

Widow and the BigNug maturing nicely, stinking now nd fattening right up, hairs starting to ginger up all over, another week takes the BigNug to her due date but I think I'll only start to flush her then, widows got 3 weeks left yet

White widow looking frosty and they're stinking now 2 completely different phenos as far as smell is concerned. One is really fruity while the other is much more floral with maybe a minty hint to her😁 I'm starting to get itchy.

Say hello to my little friend, cheeky little lower bud managed to hang on and she's covered in crystal.
IMG 20201019 152453


I just had to climb in and disconnect the auto feed and take the mylar cover off the trays let them dry out a bit better so I can flush. I won't bother connecting again , by the time I give it a good clean it may as well stay that way. Only thing is I can't leave the house without alerting everyone in the near proximity that I'm growing because I stink to high heaven. Made the mistake of being topless. Sticky arms don't cover it, and I was careful too.
