Also great news on my Breeders boutique seeds. Got a 100% germination on all the seeds I sowed. Need to bump my lighting from 23w cfl to my t12 setup. Will do that right now.

Thanks Breeders Boutique for sending out my Southern charm too and a new strain there letting me trying out.

Still waiting on my other order, which will be here by this weekend. Great customer service again!

Man just two weeks or less for seeds to get my house is just-Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Nice to meet you. I'd have 8 plants in 5 gal buckets surrounding the bulb hanging vertically in the middle of the tent.
Never tried to grow with a vertical light...Mine is horizontal... Growing 9 now so while 6-7 is optimal IMO its just hard for me to throw away a beautiful lady! LOL! Just curious? Do you have alot of problems with plant leaning when you grow that way? Do you rotate the pots? And thanks for the welcome and the response!!!:)

They grow more than a little sideways. I tie them back to the wall so they stay away from the light. I do hydro.

I also grow vertical in a similar way to Jig. Normally Jig ties his plants back aginast the walls, as I have also done recently. It's not quite as effective as a scrog, but the plant does give almost equal amounts of auxins across the flower sites. As far as turning them, this is not required. The buds do not seem to get better growth on the side not facing the lights...in my experience anyway.

I also trim wet and have never had issues withy weed not smelling good. I am not sure of the logic behind that argument, although I am sure one of the old club posters fell out with us over a debate about that, lol......
Honestly it doesn`t smell great right now, but I`m hoping that with a week of cure some of the goodness that was there while it was on the plant will come back! Smelled soooo dank before the cut, and then the smell completely went away...but I did trim wet and I`m starting to hear that`s not the best idea

That damn straggler you can see in the front on the 1st pic must be killed off today, I think. Every time I open the tent and see that decrepit looking plant, it just plain pisses me off. It looks like it has some kind of disease b/c even some of the new leaves are just curling up and getting necrotic edges...oh well, I'll take 6 out of 7 any day of the week. Im going to get a microscope today so I can thoroughly and accurately examine the preflowers on all my babies. Every day is just so exciting now...growth explodes in a single day and ya never know what to expect.

I never would have thought nutes could be so simple. I've only fed 2x so far in veg @ 50% and they'll get 1x more feeding before they go into flower. I can't believe all the suckers that buy into those expensive nute regimens....I think I already mentioned this, but I'm pretty certain I'm going to order jack's classic for my bloom formula. I want to prove that it doesn't take 15 different bottles of nutes to grow chronic.

Well ya I've helped a few buddies over the years....always wet and always smelt fine! Then I did some reading and found that some people say it's from trimming it wet. I have 3 more that'll be ready in about 2 - 3 weeks, so I'm gonna try a few different ways on those and see where that takes me....first time so wanna find my sweet spot!

I think basically all that is happening cdnbudder is that the buds will take longer to dry. I guess it all comes down to having the right atmosphere for how you dry your product.
I just find it a chore to trim all those curled up leaves off, not knowing how much bud you are also snipping off. Each to their own though eh.
