Loving the update GB! I love early flowering pictures. It's like an alien life form evolving right in front of us, and evolve she does.

As per your unspoken guidance I have vegged out some mega moms to set outside for a hell of a preveg, GB style hoping to see some 3+er's. looks like you're going 5-10er's this season buddy so awesome as always.

I had some issues with my outdoor started seeds preflowering but ended up sexing great and they'll be going back indoors to reveg.

As for the monster cropping, I've seen experiments first hand as many times the genetics I pull are 1-2wks into flowering at times. It will add an extra 7-14days of rooting depending on strain. I feel like if I can get roots in 5 days normally from vegging moms and then super-crop, it's not that much of a noticeable yield difference.
I believe in order to see a benefit, this technique is meant for prevegging for many months before going into the ghouse or outside. The reaction of the plant to stay short and shoot branches seems like a hormonal reaction to the flowering photoperiod and the sudden need to acclimate and grow roots. my experience has been the further into flower the longer it takes to develop roots.

Hope you're staying medicated with all the labor you're putting in! I've been happily buzzing along on some 10g:1ozhemp oil tincture from 10g trainwreck wax.
Glad to see ya man, Yeah I have few over 5 last year. My new goal is a 10, of which I have some contenders :)
Stay safe, and kick some ass this year.

Damn. They are tryna hit you guys with the ban hammer now too? Such a waste of time and energy. Just because they keep booking and releasing all the tweekers and child molesters, who are the real problem for high crime rates. It is funny, because when they ban outdoor growing the crime rates increase. They're just a bunch of dipshits that can't figure out how to do their own job so they blame people who grow pot.

What's up Boss-
Your garden looks like a Hometown Buffet on a Monday at lunch....A BUNCH OF FAT BITCHES THERE, very nice buddy,!
How's that light dep going? I see them all stacked up against the fence, they sure look good.
I had 1 girl last year that was 7.8lbs (Why is the abbreviation for pounds is LBS, what does LBS stand for?) w/o the popcorn, real close to 10 with the popcorn. I think if you have no "bumps in the road" 10 can be done.
Keep up the good work...

Here you go boss, not big or pretty as yours, but there's enough work there come this fall to keep me busy for awhile. I only grow 8 plants, my county only allows us 12 per parcel. Here's some shots of the veggies and the girls,...enjoy!Garden 6-10-14 013.JPG

Now the girls. They were started (seeds put into paper towels) March 5th. They were kept in the greenhouse with a 1000 watt light. Light comes on at 6am,off at 8am. Then the sun takes over until 6pm when the light comes back on until 8pm. That's 14hrs of light, the same amount of light as the day they went into the smart pots, May 9th. The wire around the plants are 5' tall, and all plants are poking through the top of that screen and through the SCROG screen, that SR-71 is already being weaved through the SCROG screen.
I hope this eases your curiosity...

Wow. Tmb... beautiful setup! I love the gh and the monsters of course.
Boss sorry about the hijack, I'll post this in TWS thread...
Ya, the greenhouse is key if you want big plants. It's temperature controlled with fans and heaters. Stays 80 during the day in winter, and I try to keep it above 55-60 at night in the early spring, it can make the high teens sometimes here. I do a spring flower in there, 24/0 in a tent for 10 weeks then into the greenhouse March 1st with the 1000 watt light . The greenhouse is built from donated single pane sliding glass doors, and windows.

How can you tell when to pick the crooknecks?
I like to pick my yellow squash and zucchinis small. I'm glad to have fresh veggies :) I also have Tomatoes, bell pepper, onions, carrots, and soon artichokes. It's a full time job just trying to keep up with watering everything in this triple digit heat.
My wife would like that shape :0
lol... reminded me of this
