Topped yesterday (2nd topping)
Good vertical growth
2 critical and a strain I accidentally crossed( gscxgg4 )
Bushy. I defoliate every few days. They are starting too grow aggressively now which is y I topped again. Only 2 not topped are the 2 shorter ones in the middle

Platinum kush bagseed 1
Looking good. No nute burn, no deficiencies
Getting about a half inch to an inch of growth daily. Probably got another week of stretch but we'll see
Platinum Kush Bagseed 2
And that's my update for the day

What's your perpetual schedule? I'm currently on a perpetual that's 10 weeks flower, with plants being harvested every five weeks. At that same time, more plants go into flower to replace the ones coming out. I veg for eight weeks, with a two week cloning period. The white "S" indicates that there's at least one seeded plant to be harvested.

Nice schedule. I'm trying to harvest about once every 4 weeks. Very new to perpetual growing. But halfway through the platinum kushes 8 weeks I'll be adding the plants from the veg tent after transplanting. A week or 2 prior to moving veg plants I'll be germing new seeds. I have it all laid out on my calendar but I'm still learning. the scheduling is essential. U get that down and u can get your harvests rolling in like clockwork. Every 4 weeks is too much work tho so I may shoot for 8 week perpetual harvests after a while

Horrible at cloning. Working on it tho. Until I master it, I've got plenty of seed and variety in the meantime
I do only two plants for harvest.
- Cut 8-10 clones, put into aerocloner
- 2 weeks later, pot the best 5-6 rooted clones
- 3 weeks later, transplant the best 2 plants into final 3 gal pots
- 5 weeks later, those two plants replace two in the flowering tent, where there are always only 4 plants
Mind you I have two fully separate growing areas. One area is veg/flower solely dedicated to experiments and breeding and are not necessarily exactly in line with my production perpetual, where the other veg and flower areas are strictly used for production only.
Wife and I trim up the two plants in a couple of hours, after everything is all lined up on my kitchen island. I've found it much easier to trim when standing up rather than sitting down. It's easier to hit the fridge for another beer when you're not covered in buckets and bowls and stuff too
I typically get between 1/2-3/4 pound from two plants.
I use an aerocloner. Makes life extremely simple. Water and electricity. That's all that's needed.

I may just have to take a page out of your book. That's sounds like a good way to run this for what I've got. and man, I wish I had extra space to play around with genetics and that sort of thing. I kind of enjoy mixing a strain just to see what comes of it.I do only two plants for harvest.

Definitely makes life easier. I've come to realize I need one and once I get my "go to" stains that I want to run consistently, I wont have to buy seeds unless I'm looking for something new. Got one in my amazon cart right now actually

I love the gg4 but I moved and these guys go crazy when they smell marijuana. I smoked once when I first moved in and got threatened with eviction. Now I've got to get in the car and leave just to smoke. But I say that to say I'm picking low odor strains that I dont mind smoking. So far master kush made the list. Looking for one more. Platinum kush is way too loud so this will be the last run of that until I move again

So as somebody who has this thing dialed in, what do you think of how I have it laid out out? Gonna end up working myself to death? Your way sounds much simpler. All I'm trying to accomplish is not running out. I'm always back to buying b4 next harvest. I had to put a stop to that. if I grow I shouldn't ever have to buy .lol that's part of y we do it besides the genuine love of growing

Ok soooooo, hows the RIU community today?
Quick update
In the flowering tent all is well. Stretch is still very much in action and we got trichomes!
My new carbon filter is supposed to be here in about a week and a half. I SHOULD be good till then but I'd feel alot more secure about my grow if it came sooner. Anyway, I digress. Here's some pics of the PK girls
Bud sites all around
Getting tall!
Early Trichomes. Always a good sign
Veg tent Is doing well. I have some transplanting to do this weekend and next.
Growing bushy how I like
Standing strong
My accidental strain in the middle
Other two are critical which Ijust topped
Germinating 2 master kush REG seeds and 1 durban poison FEM

So this is the biggest plant with the most vigor out of all in the veg tent. Turns out, it's a boy. This is typical Male behavior. To the untrained eye, these may be hard to tell whether they're Male or female pre-flowers. Upon close inspection, I can assure u they are Male pre-flowers. Besides the fact that males tend to show earlier and have more vigor, my master kush seeds are regs. Thoughts?
He will be terminated

As long as those pre-flowers show, I can spot a female everytime b4 they ever hit flower. The shapes are slightly different but when u KNOW what you're looking for it's pretty easy to spot

NIRVANA SEEDS UPDATE:
If u know me, u know nirvana is my go to, my seed bank of choice.They now send DOUBLE the seeds u ordered if u use cryptocurrency. so I shimmied over to coinbase and verified my account and within 15 min I bought bitcoin. Purchase the fem blue dream seeds, sent the bitcoin payment. This cryptocurrency thing is a first for me. I just wanted the extra seeds. Ill let u all know what happens. Oh and after the conversion it was only like one us dollar more than the actual price . So it's like a dollar for an extra pack of seeds. In my eyes, u cant beat that.
