Looks very good, a lot like mine right now.

If you don't mind...how old are your plants? And, are you expecting the canopies to close up?

Thanks HP, they are about 8 weeks old...This is my first time topping/fimming. I grew from seed and veg'd for 5 weeks. And yea i expect them to close up and start developing fat colas :grin:

Do you have pics or a post of your grow?

Hey bize- I let mine veg longer, only because I have about 20 plants and only enough room to flower 3 or 4 at a time.

I'm hoping for apx 2oz (wishful thinking?) in about 6 - 8 weeks.


I just took these picks now.

I gave her fresh water and nutes on Friday, and the level is down apx 10cm already....thirsty girl.

Edit: She's 2ft tall, 2ft wide, 2ft deep.

Holy Fuck nice roots hugo!
Thank you:cool:

I feel the extra month in Veg helped the most, the roots have bulked up by a good 20% during the first month of flowering. It's also the best plant I've produced so far, my first three got shocked and stunted.

Yea Hugo nice pics man!! And I think you will get way more than just 2oz off that beauty. The stalk is super thick and those roots look even better. keep up the good work man :clap:

I'll post more pics tomorrow guys!!! I hope my colas are getting bigger. I can't really tell from checking on them so often

Hey guys sorry for the wait...the ladies are looking good. we are 5 weeks in. hopefully we can squeeze out more bud in the next three weeks!! I wanted to trim and prune the lower branches during week 3 but i felt it might shock the plants at that point. Idk was it a good or bad call?

- I'd say good call. With the plant in my pics, I did all the pruning 2 weeks prior to flower. There's a shitload of popcorn bud growig under the canopy, I'm glad that I didn't remove those branches.

Yea I have a lot of popcorn bud too. I'm happy they are there but I'm kinda mad i didn't remove some of those tiny branches during veg. I think i would have a bigger yield in the long run. When you prune do you take off all of the small branches under your canopy?

Yes and no. I'm doing both right now to see the difference in yeild. So far it looks like the non-lollypoped plant will produce more.

Oh ok then I guess topping with minimal pruning is best. How are your plants looking? How much longer before harvest?

Hey bize. Right now I have 3 plants in flower, at different stages.

This one I just started on 12/12, pruned it about 2 weeks ago, didn't redo it before flower.

------------------------------------------------------------
This one got lollypoped (2 weeks before flower), and cleaned up a couple of days before being put to flower.


2a.jpg2b.jpg 2 weeks into flowering.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
This plant got topped, very little pruning done more than a monthe before flower.
Another 4 weeks to go I figure.

Lolz - Can't wait for this girl to ripen, I need a decent yield so I can stop smoking shake:mrgreen:
