So I’ve been reading for a long time on here and gwe I feel like I know just enough to be dangerous. Feel free to let me know what I could have done differently to make this grow work better. I ran into some problems with space in early flower and decided to super crop. The plant responded well I fell and I have about a month left of the breeders info is accurate. I will be picking up a loupe or something to check trichs soon.
Strain bubba gum from dr. Krippling
300watt hps
Cana coco and perlite
Gh flora trio
Cali magic

Let me know what you guys think. This plant is an auto that was very fast growing so I topped it to the 2nd node(uncle bens) method. Even after this I still had height issues so I will be growing photos from here on I believe to have more control. Thanks for the read and any advice or comments!

Oh wow you did really well with topping and training her up, good job!!! I wouldn't rely too heavily on breeder timelines, they tend to be a 'minimum growing time' in the best case scenario. But I'm sure you'll know when the time is right!

Hahaha wow! That thing got super stretchy ... I can't help but wonder how it would have grown with a 600w. Would you consider upgrading your light one day? Very well trained, you could even be more aggressive if you wanted using a tomato cage and winding it around to keep height Down. Regardless I hope your yeild is good, the quality sure looks on point.

Thanks so much everybody for the kind words it means a lot I’ve seen a lot of great stuff from riu members and I appreciate it.
I’m actually upgrading to a 600 watt led and I’m springing for a tent this time as well. Heat was a bit of an issue early in the grow with the hps in the closet. I’ll def grab some tomato rings and try that seems like they would be perfect size. Thanks again everybody.

About the same stage as mine... I bet your lounge smells a bit... I've got the same levels of trichs and like you the bud mass is relatively thin. I'm week 7 of flower how about you? Hoping they bulk up soon... 90% of my pistles are brown but trichs are still clear.
Awesome man looking good. Ya the room smells but it’s honestly not as bad as I thought. If I touch any leaves or stems even my hands are so sticky and smell really crazy like lemons or just citrus.
