Well the harvest window started to open quickly, just checked the trichomes again and there's some amber appearing :)

Hey all. Sorry been way to busy to update on this. In the end I only pulled 12oz. Pretty disappointing.

I have found my problem I think. Ever since I started a veg and flower room my yields have sucked.

I think when scrogging, you need to do it from the start to finish. So I'm changing the way I grow.

I'll be starting another vert scrog very soon. But ill train them vert from the start :)

In the meantime my next flower run is going to be a horizontal run, as I need a guaranteed decent harvest next run.

You caught the problem here, or I'd have suggested it.

Ya gotta train the plants to be vertical early on, and to bend some branches down to fill in the trellis top to bottom. Empty trellis space isn't productive.

The good news is that they looked healthy all the way through and that says good things about environment, nutes, light, etc.

That is one thing I have learned from you guys here at Vert growing is to train from the beginning, and as TTY says bend to fill, that is a quality statement.
I am at 9 days of flower and they are stretching a lot.
Saw the first stamens yesterday, I love this part of the grow and I love my hobby that provides me the meds I need.
Peace

Cheers man. Yeah I should have known. I've got a horizontal one going at the moment and that's booming along :)

My clones are rooting, so I have started my next vert as well. I'll be doing it from start to finish in the same room.

Don't beat yourself up, that was good! Growing vertical involves a learning process; nobody gets it perfect, especially not the first time out.

Here's my latest lot. 4 x sweet seeds green poison fast version in rdwc.

I'm feeding them cheap nutes you guys wouldn't know as they are locally made, but only cost about $15 usd for 1000l of nutrient mix :). No need for that expensive shit. I haven't decided what booster to use this round, been thinking of trying canna boost.

They are 6 weeks old and ill move them into the flower tent in 2/3 days and pin them up vert.

I just have to build another rdwc system tomorrow and then I'm good to go.

Any questions or advice you have, hit me up or otherwise join me to watch these bitches go crazy.

Plants look great @kiwipaulie , do you have a label from those "cheap" nutrients you could share?

Vert girls are nearly ready to start training.

Shot of horizontal grow a day before 4 weeks in to 12/12. The seem to be developing slower than the last run, I wonder if that has anything to do with being more on top of the n. Last time I had n def through the start of flower. I stopped feeding them calmag on the RES change this week.

Day 30 from flip on the horizontal.

Vert girls are getting bigger. Should be able to start training soon.

How tall do you guys let them go before training?

Mine were 18" on the Blue Cheese and 24" Critical Kush, worked out ok, most filled the screen nicely while others were Indica dom. I only have less than 5' height to work with.
