I'm LOVING those subcanopy leaves!
So FAT!

Honestly my favorite time to look at cannabis is usually in Deep veg.

Thanks :D trying to keep as much green on the plant as possible... It sure makes for a nice lower canopy :D
Yea I decided I'm gonna let a couple plants go their whole liveswith an allrounder diet, try to keep those leaves as healthy green as possible until chop.
Especially since I'm avoiding the chem nutes as much as possible.

I've done a lot of reading from uncle bens posts.. i think hes banned now maybe though..


Anyway he has a super straight forward no bs approach to everything.. dont quote me but things like if leaves are yellow in flower, give them the veg nutes... because fuck many veg nutes is are high in some nutes that bloom nutes are deficient in..

So i don't remove foliage unless it's not going to grow.. and I give them what food they need and try to ignore all the stupid myths and cannabis-specfic nutrients, and look at what the advanced home gardeners are doing..

Seems to be really working for this little headband run!

well since your sog, does not removing leaves effect your circulation ?
I have the two fans pretty much blasting the canopy with air :)... one runs 12/12.. the other runs 24/0... to keep air moving always... Then the humidity stays between 30-35% 24/7.

So I keep the lower canopy trimmed but theres a mighty bush in the middle for sure... It never seems damp or weird or anything I inspect it pretty often now with all the tie downs I'm doing..

If there was another plant I might have issues but the two do fairly well in that space even with a screen up .. :)

wrapping up day 14

right after lights on - fed with .. /gal

35mL Big Bloom
25mL Tiger Bloom
8mL Bio-Weed (Kelp)
12mL Cal Mag


I had to use like 10mL of pH up it was crazy :o After mixing that into the water my pH was at 5.4....

Sounds good for chiles, but not this medication :lol: I'm going to have to pick up more pH Up.. I'm still using one of my first bottles of pH UP.

Wouldn't call a two plant personal grow aSOG, but to each their own.

Man, I thought CFL's were weakuntil my veg cab stared showing leaf stress..
Now theperfect place for my little seedlings is to have the CFL like 8" off of them.
Rediculous right? But no stretching, just perfect perky leaves stretched out flat.

I picked up Big Bloom the other day, I love it. It seems to "soothe" my plants when Ifeed them.

I think he meant SCROG... at least thats how I read it :)

Lets see some pics..!

And yeah big bloom seems like it has a bunch of good stuff in it.. I'm excited to see how fox farm nutrients form these plants.. I wonder what the nuggets will be like!

Well..
I shouldn't overexaggerate..

ONE of my "Headband"s is perfect.
The other "headband" is recovering from deficiency, and slightly droopy.
And my Lemon Skunk is healthy as hell, but also recovering from deficiency.

But I'm stillrediculously confused as to how I've had a 40w CFL within 3" of myplants in the past,
and now after a years worth of burning, I can't have it less than 8"?

Looking forward to seeing what you can pull from this one, I am starting a 2X2 tent grow with a 400w hps and some critical jack, it's gonna be a tight squeeze!

Just picked up some nice seeds on attitude... missed that last deal because I didn't know what I wanted at the time... so I did some research :lol:.. first it was a 60british pnd order.. then i found their pick and mix section, and picked up some jilly bean, super lemon haze, and blueberry..then it got a little pricey. oh well....I got some strains I've always wanted to run..:)




I decided to run G13 lab's Pineapple Express for my upcoming medical garden :).. I hear they do well with yield.. Read through a couple grow journals and seems like a solid 60 day flowering plant. After I run all those I might have to run those jilly beans and super lemon hazes... with some white widows and or headbands :)
