Super Lemon Haze, Headband, & Tahoe OG soil grow

[Ganjafarmer562]

Starting a diary for my 5 light grow. I have two 8x4 beds and one 4x4 bed which will usually be down to the right on these shots. The Super Lemon Haze is in the 8x4 to the left, the Headband is in the 8x4 on the right and the Tahoe OG is in the 4x4. I had the clones in cups of soil for about two weeks and this is a photo of the day I transplanted.

These photos are from 18 days after transplanting.

[Ganjafarmer562]

Thanks. Yeah They are in flowering now. Here is a shot of them on day one of flowering after inducing them with a dark period.

This is the garden @ day 8 of flowering (day 1 of week 2). I have hacked back a bunch of cuts and foliage from the bottoms. Also all of these plants were topped at the end of the last week of veg.

The frost is amazing on the Super Lemon Haze. That is one of the main reasons I grow this strain still. I haven't encountered any funny growth patterns with my SLH, instead they are extremely uniform. I have had the opportunity to cross them with a few different genetics, and she is pretty dominant on several traits. I want to say this plant is somewhat stable because I have planted two packs of beans of the SLH and all of my moms are identical. Ill have some of the frost pics in the next couple days. On another note, your system sounds like a lot of work switching from the UC to coco. Do you have a tough time getting all the roots settled in the coco without breaking some off and possible ruining the plant?

These photos are three days later after a feed. So the girls are officially starting the 3rd week of flowering the next day. Day 14, and filling in really nicely!

You are right. You are not really able to tell from the photos I posted, but I topped the shit out of all three beds. Especially the Tahoe's. The great thing about this particular system is that I was able to salvage around 250 clones from just the tahoe's. I would say prob close to 600 of the super lemon and headband each also. I am trying 25 under one light, I normally do 16, so I have had to hack em back quite a bit. I am liking the 25 though.

This is day 24 of flowering. Starting to cut them back some more and set them up for heavy flower production. Some of the other photos are showing how much I cleaned up (lolli popped) the girls.

i love this whole idea, and i feel it would save a lot more time than moving buckets around, but what about yeild? when you cut the bottom branches off will that help produce more? this looks great i may try this :)

Yeah this topping technique helps with yield a lot, at least in my system with such a crowded canopy. Cutting all of the bottoms helps ensure that the small pieces or larf are at a minimum. Anyone who has ever trimmed will understand what I mean. It's no fun and the bottom pieces are not very dense or productive. Using this "lollipop" technique also helps your plants produce larger, and more dense bugs in the canopy area since the plant isn't wasting energy producing tons of tiny pieces of buds that get tossed in the hash bags anyway. Give it a try, you will be happy and so will your plants.

thanks alot. this does make a lot of sense. i hate trimming what i like to call "popcorn" bud from the bottom of the branches. i was just always afraid of trimming too much. i am going to try this for my next crop.
