Do you have any pictures when you had them in the 18oz cup? How big do you let them get before going to the rose ones ?

Why yes I do. Below is what they look like prior to transplant. Then halfway done. I do it when they’re dry and immediately water after they’re in the new pot. I apply generous Mykos and Azoz in the new pot.

@Rattlehead121 - here is latest run of ocean grown genetics obiwan and alien rift. Shows all that got repotted and the runts not ready for transplant.

Hey man I’m in Alberta and I just got some seeds from BCseedking and I would highly recommend them! I will definitely be getting my seeds from them again. Super fast shipping and had no problem doing a etransfer to them. they give you a 5$ discount if you etransfer as well. so that’s sweet everyone loves a deal! I ordered 10 white widow and when they came there was even a few extra some looked better then others But all 16 seeds germinated which was awesome!

Cheers and happy growing

Nice, always good to hear of good experiences with Canadian shops, well any shop for that matter lol, i will have a look at their website, see if they got something i might wanna try.

i wish we could grow more than 4, i really think a SOG grow would be fun to try.

not gonna complain tho, 4 is cool lol

Yeah for sure man! At least it legal. But who am I kidding, I’ll be bending the rules lol

Day 41

The 2 big girls are looking better this morning, the bad droop seems to have gone.

The other 2 will take water later today as they have dried out pretty good.

All seem to have rebounded from final topping, little more LST over next 10 days and then I'll be flipping them.

Still undecided if I'm gonna install the scrog net or not. If I do it will happen within next day or 2

Pics 6 hours after they waking up.

did a little training on 3, she was shooting up in a few places

Decided to hold off on watering 3 and 4 until tomorrow morning.

Still debating scrog or not.

I'm interested in the scrog method...from what I've seen the scrog helps to keep the canopy level (done right), supports the colas and maintains an optimum height in a limited space, I'm no expert though. When I finally get things up and running in my 2x3x6' cab, I'm going to attempt LST and a scrog, following along on yours and other grows is giving me the confidence to try these out....I've just bought and am waiting for a HLG 135w QB V2 4000k LED, seems like this light could go the distance (seed to harvest)....what is your opinion? Oh and Happy NewYear

Hey happy new year


From what I have read, yes those lights will get you through to harvest, not entirely sure how big footprint they are good for but I assume it should fill your space nicely

Day 42

Everything seems to be running smoothly so far. The 2 girls up top in pic were fed 2 days ago, bottom 2 are ready for water today.

1 and 2 both showed signs of slight N tox again after feeding and I can only assume it's because the new soil still had nutes in it after transplant.

So today 3 and 4 will only get ph water again. I think one more just water feeding will use up the soil .

Happy new year!

yes def agree with you.

the plan going forward is 2 in flower and 2 in veg at all times, veg for 2 months or more, they should be nice, big, bushy and ready for scrog when they move to flower room. im assuming/hoping 2 month veg will be enough to fill the 4x4 canopy?

Day 43 from seed

Everything looks decent to my newbie eye.

Alll 3 fruit punch are Growing out and up nicely, #1 and 1A ( I call them the twins) bushed out and have much ganglier appearence than that of their sister(#3), she has kept a very nice asthetic shape and canopy and has a little tighter node spacing than that of her sisters.

It's easy to tell which of the 4 isn't related.

The atomic (#4)from bomb seeds is the smallest of the 4 clearly. But she has nodes packed on top of nodes and I think I am probably most excited to flip this one , moreso than the other 3. Just to see what she does.

I am opting out of scrogging this run, being my first grow, I just want to get through it with 4 healthy plants and a little more expierence. I think the training I have done on them will still pay off , all 4 have many many tops.

I expect my next run will be 2 massive plants in scrog for sure.

Oh man that’s gonna be good!

Day 44

Lights just coming back on and all the bending/tucking and super cropping that was done last night is not apparent at all

Hortilux super hps bulb just a got here, will be flipping within next 5-8 days I would hope. Giving the newest tops a chance to get a bit of size to them.

Canopy still staying relatively flat

Day 45

2 big girls are taking water again today.

Broke a stem a little more than I would have liked while training/ super cropping.

She looks a little stressed still this morning. Both are drooping, assuming/ hoping it's result of the training and both needing water.

Gotta ask...Seeing the height these girls are getting, at what point in this grow would you consider its time to install a scrog net? ...I've never grown ...just wondering for a future grow (soon I hope)
