Yup! looking good! Have you flipped to 12/12 yet?
I'd defoliate the lower part of the plant once it goes into flowering. that way most of the processes happen right at the top of the plant, and also it makes for better air movement which is very important.
Other than that, keep on truckin' =)

Yeah you're on the $ bro just let it ride now n your work will pay off soon... Good work... Also over thinking and always thinking u can do better is the sign of a good grower... Improve, but don't meddle when not necessary that's all...
Also with the defoliation, usually the day I put it in I strip the bottom 1/3 if I haven't already and then I do a final chop chop of the stuff that looks like it's not worth leaving around the 21 day mark and after that leave them be... You don't wanna keep stressing them more than you need to...
Either way thumbs up...

Imo that strain is a better candidate for a scrog than mainline... But it's still gonna be a nice one when done either way.. As long as you're plant is happy from seed/clone to sow you'll have good meds, however I'm not a fan of seed growing but you gotta do that to get clones obviously.... I grow a few different ways based on strain... If it's a side brancher like that I use a scrog screen but most strains can be used both ways but it's all about growing the same strains and figuring out how they yield best with the least intervention by you... Also there's nothing wrong with the side branching but it's a lot of work on you/stress on the plant to mainline it if it's gonna end up side branchy-ish in the end no matter what you do when you coulda slapped a scrog on there and just let the screen fill up... Both take a little longer and a lot more work than traditional Xmas tree or top once or twice and let it fly growing but obviously the yield goes up as well as the % of primo to larfy/middy type buds...
I'm critiquing but basically splitting hairs now, you did a good job, that plant looks as healthy as they get and that's really the most important part of growing... After you got that part which u do, everything else is fine tuning.

Here is a couple pics of my Kens GDP #1. I flowered this plant a bit small, and consequently there was almost zero stretch as well, so she ended up as a small girl, but I think she is absolutely gorgeous. Here is a couple LED inspired pictures. And a couple with normal lighting.

I've heard good and bad things about GDP genetics, but after testing a pack of his Original GDP, I've found 3 noteworthy pheno's. I've another that I haven't shown here which is starting to purple on me and smells like the sweet tart GDP I've grown to love over the years so I'm hoping she continues to finish up like a winner! I'll have to post some pictures of her as well. Anyways, I'd have to say that I'm definitely willing to give GDP genetics a thumbs up at this point, will have to see how they smoke to give two thumbs up, though!

what up all?!?!
i figured i'd check back in with progress on my mainline. @Mohican SO GLAD i kept going! hit 8 tops like 2 weeks ago, and so far has shown no signs of starting to flower. she is at 28" above the soil right now, and growing at a super rate. the strain [nirvana swiss cheese fem] is supposed to add on like 200%+ in height during pre/flowering so i think she should get pretty good sized!
@Canna-Savant plants looking super dope!!!
