20151127_155802.jpg *CRISIS AVERTED* Happy Thanksgiving to you all! Trip was wonderful. Hope all of you had a good holiday....

Just got home today, and this is what I see in the tent....20151127_151846.jpg
So...day 13...they are looking great!
Pots were light, and soil was dry so I set them outside, watered them around the edges just enough so the water came out of the bottom. I misted the tops,too.

Then I grabbed my ballast that arrived shortly before I got home, and got to work! Power Plant is back up, and all is well... got a free bulb out of the deal,too...All is well!

Day 15...plants are working on 4th node! Amazing how big theses lil guys have grown! I'm already thinking ahead to flower...wondering how tall I should let them go before I flip the switch...I'm sure I have at least 2 more weeks...

New ballast is working way better than the old one. The output of light is noticeably brighter than the old one. Very cool, will come in handy later.

There's a little curl to the leaves to the plant in the front right...probably overwatered a little, but overall things seem to be going well...

16 hours of nonstop clipping.
8 hrs of nonstop hash mixing.

3 hrs sleep yesterday becasuse i had to go to work at 8am

5 hours sleep today after mixing all night for hash and draining those stupid screens. Still have another 6 brs or so ofhash making to go and manicuring in a few more days.

Its a long process lol. Just make sure you have help or ur gonna go ballistic.

The best and worst thing is to this minute i still have no idea what weight im going to end up with lol. Nobody can seem to guess the number and the anticipation drives u crazy.

My house smells like someone let off a stink bomb, theres no hiding it anywhere lol. Alot of good problems to have haha but its just suxh a long process that you have to make sure you follow and don't get overzealous.

I still have the other half of my trimmings left to do bubble hash on and im at about an oz of hash right now so far. Most of it was premium 25 micron stuff.

Anyway my whole point is you have alot to look forward to, just remember to have patience in everything you do with your plants. Ur grow is looking great so far just keep it up.

20151201_160446.jpg Day 17... Things are getting interesting! Set the ballast to 100% and lowered the humidity a little (I've been at a steady 70% for a while now...).
They are working on finishing 4th node (5 leaves yaaayyy), and 5 is in production.

Also seeing the development of where either calyx's or pollen sacs will be...Let's hope for at least 2 girls!

Its gonna be a while till you can sex them still. What is your light cycle? Are u planning on topping or fimming ?

Have you fed with mychorizae yet? What is ur nutrient line and feeding? Do you use pro silicate. Did you buy superthrive or nitrozime?

looks amazing my friend, your on a roll, with all that height in your tent, I would veg them big time, top or fim, use some string and weights and start bending them down and over after topping of course, take a look at "mainlining ' its a simple method of topping and making a "mainfold",, you get more larger bigger col'as,, http://www.growweedeasy.com/mainlining-nugbuckets,,
get those plants looking like little bushes before you flip to 12 12,, and all your corners will be filled in your tent,, even if you have to remove 1 because of male,

scrogs are cool, but mostly if dealing with known females,, like feminized seeds or clones, once you wind all those branches thru the scrog screen and later get a male, you have to cut it all out of the scrog,,
I am lazy,, lol

For this first run I don't plan on running any nutes, honestly -unless I see signs of deficiency.

I just don't wanna risk ruining my crop on the first chance i have to make some decent smoke...Gonna play it safe... I need some bud, haha...This is the best I can get around my neck of the woods...I get a half an ounce of this for 200... ridiculous. . .

I'm sick of it and an ready for a few ounces of good stuff from my own hand...lol

I have general hydroponics floragrow series... I also have a liter of Humboldt's "oneness"...No silicate or any of the other stuff. Temps aren't high in the tent, and growth seems to be good...just keeping it simple on this first run.

Well u can do it two diff ways. If u top a seedling it will grow a certain way. Fim is unpredictable. Id start with tieing down. Very carefully get the top of the stem maybe 2/3 the way up and tie a string to it. Then ur gonna lightly bend the stem so it barely bends and then tie the other end to the pot. Lookup some videos. This will cause the plant to stop growing at the top and start branching out. The side branches will grow out to be the size of the top. Give it another 2 weeks then start

Alright guys....before I do anything stupid...are these guys in need of a watering? Or is this something else??I haven't watered since the transplant 7 days ago for fear of over watering...these two look a little droopy compared to the other...So at day 18 I just topped them...holding tight till I hear from you guys if I need to water or if this is nitrogen deficiency...
