You are so right about the potential pheno differences. I'm seeing that on my first grow as well. Looking great, man. Well done managing these two crazy girls.
I have thought about it and is it super cropping? Or just HST? The problem is there is no place to do that so she doesn’t block some other major flower sites. And there is about 4-5 sites I would have to do that for. So I’m hoping she stops the vertical growth now since she is in obvious flower, but, if she hits the light I’ll have no choice.I have had this experience on my first grow too. I'm getting ready to post an update, take a look at the differences in my 4 plants on the overview photo. Two in the back got real tall, even though I had them even at flip. The one on the right front is a shorty and while she looks to be as tall as the one on the left, I have her on a thick book and a 2" drainage riser, for a total of about 6". This short plant is also noticeably different in structure and color, a deeper, more olive green. It might be hard to tell in the photos, but the flowers are slightly different as well. Interesting to watch for sure.
Hey Amoknewb, did you ever think of pinching those stems that are stretching and bending them over to 90 degrees? I think they have a name for it, but can't remember. You basically pinch the stem and crush the inner fibers. After you work it a bit, it will bend over without breaking. I wonder if that might be a solution for your tall girl. Kinda scary sounding but there are a lot of videos of guys doing it online. Perhaps someone with more knowledge than me might have suggestions too!
I really think it is lack of good breeding by the breeder. This is too big a difference in my opinion for the price of the seeds. Live and learn! I will be using a different breeder for my next run and see if that makes a difference. I have some seeds from RQS, Nirvana, seedsman, and one other breeder I think resin seeds out of the east coast?. Been pondering what or which to do next.You are so right about the potential pheno differences. I'm seeing that on my first grow as well. Looking great, man. Well done managing these two crazy girls.

I recently worked out a purchase with @Poekie here at the Farm who is over in Spain. I have found him to be a great guy and his prices are very reasonable. I had found a thread here at the Farm where many members had bought seeds from him and had written some very nice testimonies. I am still waiting on the final order and what is included because Poekie is looking over his inventory to get me seeds that are close to what I am looking for. I'll let you know what we came up with if interested.Been pondering what or which to do next.
Yeah this is the second time I have heard that name in almost as many days. I am definitely keeping him in mind for my next purchases. I have about 10 different strains I need to get through first.I recently worked out a purchase with @Poekie here at the Farm who is over in Spain.

This has me concerned for your grow Bro. I wonder, has @Aqua Man or one of the other experts chimed in about that? I would try to get whatever is causing that solved.Clara is still getting more spots on her leaves.
No not yet, but, don’t think diaries get as much attention as asking in the infirmary forum. Which I might have to do. I’m still convinced it is heat/light stress but what do I know. I will post up in the other help forums this afternoon just to get some opinions. Thanks for taking the time to check out my diary though @SweetLeafGrow it is always nice to get some reactions and comments.This has me concerned for your grow Bro.

Imo coco drain to waste doesn't need more that 800 ppm cal mag about 100-150ppm and not needed if using tap.This has me concerned for your grow Bro. I wonder, has @Aqua Man or one of the other experts chimed in about that? I would try to get whatever is causing that solved.
100% co2 will require higher ppm and or lower humidity. Co2 increases photosynthetic efficiency and actually will lower transpiration rates which in turn equates to less nutrient uptake. This needs addressed because the plants actually grow faster and thus need more nutrients. But it also makes water efficiency much higher. So by increasing ppm and or lowering humidity you compensate for this. But since humidity plays a vital role in stomatal conductance you don't want to lower it to much and a higher ppm is often the way to go.I would add that in 70/30 coco pearlite u shouldn’t go over 6.1 ph and also do you have co2 augmentation? I use 70/30 also and my ppm can reach 1600-1800 but i have co2 augmentation of 1200-1500and i keep my ph around 5.9 or 6
Have I mentioned it's nice to have ya on the farm? If was reading this, I'd pay attention to this man. He knows his stuff.I would add that in 70/30 coco pearlite u shouldn’t go over 6.1 ph and also do you have co2 augmentation?
