Ok so i pinched a bud off it thre other day and put it in an enevelope....alas my impatience got the better of me and tonight me and the missus have been smokin it. Still a bit damp and slightly smelling of freshly mown lawn but we're both really baked and the flavour is really shining thru....really citrusy and really cerebal high....can't wait for it to be ready......2nd grow begins on sunday the missus is really invloved in this one so expect her to chip in with some questios as well as me,i say second grow,they're gettin flipped to 12/12 under a 600 hps for the first few days till i get my 400 ballast then they'll bask ander that....obv i'll start a new thread and i'm sure you'll all extend the same courtesy to my goosd lady as you have to me...esp cruzer and killofkali....pics of the buds and dry weight to follow as soon as i know....cheers guys

Me neither.......although a fair amount of it has been smoked,plus i owed a cupla folk some.....ie the guy who gave me the seeds etc. Admittedly the last few days at work have been blurry to say the least and an office thats 29 degrees C with no air con or ventilation doesn't help! I've got 2 that are again unknown strain/sex under a 600hps and have been flipped since sunday........temp way too high 93 minimum so far but they seem to be thriving the first few days.....either tomorrow or thursday i pick up my own 400 ballast, a cool tube reflector with extrctor fan and 5 metres of ducting to help shift heat out my room. Tried to start a new thread several times and they just disappear into the ether........weird. I'll let you all see it wen its set up in the meantime i'll get the pic of the main cola up against my good ladies arm......thanks again to yoursel cruzer,killoffkali2 and top gunrich for checkin in and for all the advice......

Thanks very much mate....hope i ain't gettin ideas above my station wi this second one.....meh..... time will tell! Still possibly two days till i get my room re-jigged properly for hps but runnin an oscillatin fan on full pelt for 12 hours a day and the 600 is raping my electricity for now. Despite goin way over budget every time i think about it or on of my very very limited trustees asks about wen i get it a grin creeps across my face.....and this is when i'm moaning about how much it's costing......man if i knew how addictive this botany lark was i wouldn't have started at all......well maybe! hehe

The Cola looks great man, i'd be well happy with that for my first grow.
I know exactly what you mean. I'm totally hooked on this now, mine are budding up nice but i'm rapidly running out of space in my grow room, and i'm nearly on 3 weeks flower, so i think i'm going to have to do some serious thinking. I saw one guy in a similar position that just laid it on it's side, and that turned out fine.

i don't really have to much choice, otherwise they are going to start burning themselves. I know i should have LST'd from the start, but i started not knowing anything and then did all the reading. I think if i just start tipping it diagonally a little more every day she should be fine. Thats the fun of it though right? learning everyday. Have you started your second yet?
I know its scary but there really isn't much to it. look at the plant, take the top third of the plant and pinch the stalk where you want to bend it. While pinching wiggle the stalk back and forth a few times, you will feel it getting easer to bend. Once you get it bent tie it down or if it bends too much tie it up as long as the tip is not pointing dow she will recover in a day or so. Here is a shot of one I did last week.
Then the next day
If you look close you can see green tape where I bent it. I tape it up if the stalk splits like this one did. take the tape of in a couple days if you do tape it.

mine have just been flipped on sunday past,is it too late to try it? Am i right in thinkin it gives you multiple colas growin up from the stalk? 100% for sure i'll have pics up of the 2 new (hopefully girls) and the cool tube and extractor set up i just bought,man those cool tubes are great.....despite the least efficient lumen delivery of all the reflectors i've got it like 7 inches away from my plants and its normally about 82 farenheit. So i figure they're gettin plenty.......just hope the extra putlay was worth it in tespects of yield etc......waitin on an ionics 1 part feed gettin delivered to my local shop then tally ho you'll have to follow t'other thread. Cruzer buddy that first grow of mine was amazin most of it down to your good advice.....love it if you joined my latest one.....second ever grow first using hps......be good to lnow i've got solid advice wen i need it, Cheers bro!
Sure, no problem man. I can find it ok through your profile but other's may like to have a link so here's a link to your next grow.

I put my links in my sig. so whenever I post people can check out my grows. As far as super cropping, yeah, thats exactly what it does, gets light to the lower stuff and helps keep an even canopy. You can do it after you flip to 12/12, I have done it a bunch of times.
