Ok so today was water day, almost ran out of distilled water in my reservoir should really make sure i run that distiller more often....

Dude this stretch has been insane. I wanna say its been over a foot and a half of a stretch in the last 2 weeks. Im starting to worry shes gonna be makin out with my light panel by the end..... fuuuuck dude lol

Had to take the fan off oscillating mode and leave it stationary so it stops blowing the top buds over. Is that necessary or would it be better to leave it oscillating on a lower power setting? Let me know what you guys usually do.

This coming timelapse should be pretty cool to watch!

I would lower the fan setting and keep it on auscultation mode : )

I think my plants just finished or will be finishing their stretch. After that I start taking big fan leaves that block under nodes in the showdow “if you block the nodes you gots to go”

I defoliate the whole way through but more for good airflow than light. Those little popcorn nuggets will always be too far away from the light anyway but night time humidity problems and bud rot can wreck your whole grow a week from chop.

I do this while there in veg : ) cant stand taking a good leaf solar panel! But come flower I want anything I leave on the plant to flower to have some trichome and what bud productions will come from it. Im smoking on some of the less than desirable lower buds right now : ) they work ok (that’s why I leave them) but really to each their own with zero judgment! its all so dynamic to the individuals needs and style, thats what I love about all it! : )

Ok im going to fix that when i get home, thats kinda the way i was leaning anyways but i figure the plant isnt gonna develop mold if i change the setting for a single day so everything should be fine haha thanks dude!

I agree, the light penetration is nice to have but its really all about them top buds! Cool i was nervous to defoliate again but i think i should just go ahead and giter done, maybe the stress will stunt my plant during stretch and it wont outgrow my tent

Just to make sure, tucking is literally just tucking the leaves away so they arent blocking other things, correct? Definitely better to LST than HST if i can most of the time. Thanks for the advice!

I used to heavily defoliate until one cycle I asked myself why I cut so much s*** off the plant. When I couldn’t answer that question I stopped. I’ve done some extensive reading on here and I’m all for both sides of the argument but au naturel seems to work better for me when it comes to yields. Going to head to the dark side however with the Hashplant this go and see how mainlining works. I’ll find that sweet spot eventually

It looks more like a deficiency to me than light burn. Just my 2 cents. I’m still learning too, so maybe a more experienced grower could chime in? What chall thank?

Hey thanks for tryin to help! Really appreciate the effort.

I think the plant youre talking about has already been harvested though haha turned out it was not a deficiency, it was just my noobish ass freakin out over a totally normal process for the plant

You guys.... this plant is growing WAY more than i expected. Shes about 4 inches from my light and i cant physically raise my light any higher, its literally hanging directly on the top bar for the ceiling of the tent lol look at the difference between yesterday and today, its bonkers!

I started tucking a bunch of leaves, but i might not have a choice. I might be forced to trim a bunch of leaves. Il wait and see, but theres a ton of potential in there lol

Also, enjoy the new timelapse :) 5 days and she grew like 8 inches lol so cool to see

Scrog nets annoy the crap out of me but sometimes it's the only way to tame these beasts. Looks like you may be in that boat now because that lady is gonna get quite a bit taller. I used to use a technique called super cropping but it's not for the feint of heart and this far into flower can be risky.

I say bend, tie or whatever but definitely don't cut off/trim any tops now brother

When did the first scrog go in, before flip/big stretch? Also, was the plant was topped just once?

Yep about a week before flipping to flower so i could tuck a few branches to get more out of the nodes. And yes i only topped once, and have only defoliated twice
