I took these pic tonight after lights out, they're kind of dim from the lack of light but they give you the idea.
It's time to flip the garden into flower so tonight I defoliated the entire garden, any leaf with a stem is now in a garbage bag on my living room floor.
It's always shocking to see plants after swchazee but you can really get a good look at the colas and how much bud they'll be able to produce. Each plant has approx 30 colas, 120 tops in total.
.
.
.
I'll take better pictures Saturday morning when the lights come back on.
I picked up a trick from Dr Greenthumb years ago and I think it works - I put my plants in 60 hours darkness at the start of flower and it's suppose to make the plant switch from veg to flower quicker. I've never done a side by side comparison with clones but I'm happy with the results.

Lights on pics - Day 1 of flower.
.
Here's a pic from two weeks ago, before swchazee
.
And now a pic 60 hours after defoliation:
.
Notice the yellow new growth, all of those leaves were removed 60 hours ago and have started to grow back already.
.
Lots of clearance for light and air flow:
.
Now I'll let them flower for 3 weeks then I'll defoliate again.

I've been vaping Motavation by Serious Seeds and it's the strangest thing - after grinding a bud the grinds smell of fresh latex paint, as advertised by Serious, but when I vaporize the grinds there's a strong grape smell and a musky taste.
Very nice strain, I find myself reaching for it often. I've had a few head buzzes off of her, where everything goes fuzzy white and you can't quite place where you are.
I cured the colas in a different tin than the rest of the plant, the colas have little smell and the rest of the plant is nice on the nose.

I just got an email from Simon at Serious Seeds, we've been working on a promotional deal for readers of this thread.
When you order Kali Mist from Serious Seeds' website and use my screen name - 'Hobbes' - in the coupon code box you will receive a 15% discount, 12 euros, off your order.
The discount is going to run from now until after I harvest and I do my smoke report.

One week into flower and my tallest colas are at 22", up from 18" at the end of veg. 2 new nodes per cola.
I knew that I'd get stretch but I did not think I'd get this much the first week in. If I get more than 6"-8" in the next two weeks I will be growing too close to my light.
The white pvc in the pic below is my hopeful flower height.
.
.
I've got two distinct phenos, the 3 tall 22" colas plants and a much shorter pheno seen in the pic above, the plant in the front left and below
.
.
The tall pheno from above, even with all this colas it's stretching.

Day 14 of flower
3 of 4 plants, the tall phones, have stretched to 26', up 4" from last weeks high of 22" and 8" of stretch from the start of flower. Kali Mist is stretching like I remember, Motivation only stretched 2" over the first 3 weeks.
The top of each plant has budded up so they'll be no more nodes, but probably more stem stretch this next week or two. I'll be interested in seeing how they stretch in this 3rd week and if there'll be any in the 4 week.
.
If you notice the white pvc pipes behind the plants, that's 24" from the bottom of the plants. I'm going to lollipop up another 4" - 6" when I defoliate for a second time at the end of week 3.
.
You can see how thick the foliage is after 2 weeks of schwazwee.
.
If you scroll up to post 63 you see how many leaves have grown back.

Day 21 of flower.
I think that the stretch is behind me, topped of at 29" from 16" at the start of flower. A lot more stretch than I expected.
.
I trade in my four saucers for a bed liner. I couldn't get the plants together enough in the middle of the tent - there was literally 2' square of empty floor space.
The problem was a slight tilt to my house, so the run off water was pooling in the middle of the tent. To vacuum the water out I had to place the plants in inefficient spots.
With the bed liner all the water pools towards the right side of the tent for easy vacuum. Now I've got the plants butted against each other in the middle with hardly any empty space. I think it's going to be a good harvest.
.
.
I did away with the elevators, there are channels running under each pot.
.
I schwazzed the four plants a second time, this pic is a day later and the new leaves are already poking out.
.
Lots of space for light to get through to the middle of the plants.
.
I'm usually not good at close ups, but this one came out pretty good.
This plant was buding in it's second week, this is just the third. I think this garden is going to be a heavy producer.

Thanks CT!
Serious is giving us 15% off Kali Mist seeds, if there's another strain you want I'll ask Simon to widen the discount to include all of Serious' strains.
I harvested Motivation a month ago and I've been hitting it this past week. It gives one of the best head buzz's I've had. Not every hit, but it does give a great high. Not a big producer but a great strain, great stone. Chunky buds.
.
My Kali Mists topped out at 29", up from 18" at the flip. 11" stretch when topped to 24 colas, compared to 2" of stretch with Motavation, topped to 12 colas.

Hey CT, thanks for asking!
.
10 days ago:
.
This morning, the buds are filling out:
.
I lollipop to get rid of the sucker branches and for air flow under the canopy.
.
From the top, showing that the leaves are starting to fill out again.
.
This is the tallest cola of the 4 plants, I'll take a snapshot each week to watch it develop.
.
Thanks again CT, I'll be more diligent in my posting!
