Nice strains ;) If you looked the thread through you can see I have 1 NL also, it was stretching so much I had to supercrop it, will take some pics tomorrow, she's sleeping...

Hi everybody! As I said few posts back I've decided to open up thread again after few requests...

All 9 ladies, 5 in 12/12 and 4 in veg, are doing great. As I have 2nd generation bubblegum in week 7 12/12 I have learned how much nutes it needs and when. The buds are sooooooo fat and it's at day 43 looking like it's mother in 56. Another bubblegum I call it the DOG plant since my lil devil dog "topped" it, has 2 dominant colas wich are really really fat and bout 12inch long. 2 more bubblegums in 12/12, third generation, are in late week 2 in "grow bags", it's really just doggy waste bags wich I doubbled. The NL in day 20 12/12 is as you can see earlier in thread, caged + lst'd and now also supercropped, it kept on stretching and the supercrop has shown to be great. Pics of the flowering ladies tomorrow or thursday, need a good camera to take bud shots, dam cell suxx...

The 4 vegging ladies are now bout 12-14 inch tall and since the NL is so big, there's no room in 12/12 untill another 5-7 weeks, we'll see how I sort that out, I have another 400W ballast and bulb that I can hook up, but I'm worried bout my electric bill, not getting caught, beeing able to pay it ;) It's been exactly 1 month since I planted the clones in soil and since I have no room in 12/12 I'm glad they're not growing faster. Gave them lil too much nutes too soon, especially the 2 planted in soil w time released ferts, no worries it was just a lil and I gave them just water yesterday. If you guys or gurls ever burn your vegging plants, don't worry it's "hard" to kill a MJ plant and those plants I have over nuted in the past turn out just fine once starting 12/12. Here are some pics of the veggin ladies...flowering pics to come soon :lol:







Have a nice day RIU's!!!

Have you always topped? What's the yields compared to not topping? I'm debating if should top my clones that I have going now. I'm running into vertical space issues in my flower room without topping...

I have no clue as for the yield, but my vegging plants are really bushy and full of potential bud sites. First plant "I" ever topped was done by my dog ;) Look at the pics of the NL and you'll see a "new" tecnique I'm trying. Topped it, built a cage for support, tied down all tops to the cage (LST) and then I even super cropped it ;) For the vegging plants I used UB's topping tecnique for 2 or 4 main colas.

21 days 12/12



I supercropped all tops to get the "heart" of the plant to make a last stretch.



The tops have "healed" and are reaching for the light again but no more stretching, 31 inch tall

It's getting tight w space in here...



2 sisters to the vegging plants 13 days 12/12.



The mother 44 days 12/12.



Sry for the fuzzy pics, those buds are allready stone hard and double coated in trichs and smelling sooooo f*****g sweet :bigjoint: Can't wait to flower her babies now that I know how much it can "take"...



The "DOG plant", topped by my dog, ty soo much for that, I was sooo scared to ever try it ;) 2 main colas are bout 12 inches, getting hard and starting to fatten up, at their "fattest points" they are thick as a coke can...shes bout 4-5 months LOL, after my dog "topped" it, it only had few small shoots and like 1 fan leaf left so I ripped it up from its pot, I was gonna kill it, just to see how root structure looked, put it down in the pot again but left it outside of the vegging room as I was gonna throw it. Didn't look much at it for 2 days and then it had grew some new branches even though the roots had been separated in half :fire: I gave it a shot and started vegging it again, few weeks. Started 12/12 on her together w some other plants but after 5 days I had no space...hehe...so I put her back in veg again :lol:. Started flowering it, again, 7 february and here we are now. The fourth branch is bit camera shy hiding behind the right cola :mrgreen:



Do you guys see the pics "in the post" or only attachments?

I've chopped the DOG plant and I've had a test smoke after drying. It was smooth almost like sweet n' sour with an uppy high that lasts long.

The four vegging girls have now taken place in 12/12 making it a total of 6 bubblegums + 1 Northern Light in flower. I've added another 400W HPS so now its total 800W HPS in flower.

The mother to the 6 bubblegum girls has also been chopped, today. Buds are soo fat and dense for soil + the plant was only 47cm tall. It's covered in trichs and there's almost nothing to trim :mrgreen:

Here are the buds from the mother



Normal sized Zippo lighter

I just actually read your whole thread. Very nice outcome with the bubblegum. Is that Nirvana's version? I am about to clone my White Bubba so thanks for the refresher course.

Yeah it is frustrating when you put time and effort into a grow journal and no one pays attention. I feel like i am invisible sometimes. On a different forum i put up pics of a harvest i just got done with and hardly any replies. I got beat out by a thread called "this kinda looks like weed". That thread went 2 pages mine didnt make it passed the first. LOL

Anyways i look forward to seeing how that northern lights turns out.

Thanks man! The bubblegums in 12/12 are third generation and now I "know them" but I'm taking few weeks off after this grow so I'm starting fresh w Headband some time this summer. The Northern Light has a peculiar smell to it, looking like it has taken on Sativa "look" w that monster stretch + the buds are looking to form like a sativa. It will be fun when harvest to see how she looks when the cage has been removed ;)

So its been a week since I threw last 4 into 12/12 and this is how it looks in flower chamber. The 2 plants in the middle are their sisters at day 27 12/12. I've also decided to ditch the BioBizz nutes cuz I can see the "other" nutrient working A LOT better. I keep moving the plants on rotating schedule so over a 6 day period all 6 plants have had 1 day at each spot.



The NL has fer sure taken on some sativa pheno. It has stretched like a mofo and buds are forming like sativa tops

Progress is going just as planned. The NL is at 56 days 12/12 and by the looks of it it has another 14-20 days. The Bubblegums at 48 days 12/12 has another 10-14 days, one of them finnishing earlier than the other. Finally the four Bubblegums at the end of 4th week are looking super! Foliage is super green and healthy. I bought some bamboo sticks to tie the tops to, this allows just like looking super! Foliage is super green and healthy. I bought some bamboo sticks to tie the tops to, this allows just likeon the Northern Light, more light to penetrate to the opened up middle. Here are some pics of the ladies!
