Look up plant yo-yo's. I bought a pack but haven't needed them yet. You hang them from above, and they have hook to put on the plant (or to something you tie to the plant) and it has a monofilament fishing line under light spring tension to constantly pull up on the limb.

Ya i ordered a pack off amazon a few days ago, after seeing the issues i was having with staking fp2

They wont be here for another week or more tho.

Next run the trellis is going in and they will flower under 2 x 315s

so i expect things to improve on the next one.

I was thinking that with a heavy manifold they might be needed, and you could just put a tall stake in each pot near the stem with them hooked to the top, and you could keep the thing self contained and not locked into the tent.

Ya thats a good idea for the manifold for sure.

Day 58

Then there were 3

Atomic is ambering more and more each day, she's getting close.

Fp1 has also shown her first amber trics.

FP3 is still focusing on frost I think. That bitch is white all over

Hey diggs, I have the same fruit punch seeds, but I've been looking through the last 40 pages tryin to find pictures of the bud with no luck lol. How do you like it? It is supposed to be 25% THC but I am more interested in the taste, flavour and aroma?

Lol ya this thread kinda got out of control lol

Today I chopped the first plant down, the others aren't quite done.

Haven't smoked it yet.

It smells fruity and sweet. Not overpowering but nice.

Buts are very frosty and dense, and the yield appears to be good.

1 plant so far 570g wet and on stems. So prob 4 ozs or so off one plant and I'm a newbie. I'm sure you could do much better for sure.

Congrats man, you seem to be doing awesome! When I dry my bud I always take it off the stem and do a wet weigh. Lot of people leave it on the stem, my personal preference is to take it off and dry it in a hanging rack no stem. Anyways that allows me to also do a wet weigh and I find very consistently I can weigh it wet and divide by 4 and get very close to what the dry weight will be. Your estimate sounds about right to me, maybe a bit more than you expect.

Thanks bud, I'm trying lol

Ya I looked at the drying racks and also the herbsnow dryers, I ended up using bread trays and kept them on stems for time being.

Ya I have a lot of stems, that's def gonna affect my dry weight. My goal was 2 oz per plant, so anything above that I'll be pleased

How are the gorilla zkittleZ doing? I'm still waiting for mine to show up from gtaseeds

Doing awesome, the Inzane in the Membrane is stretching a lot now, everything is pretty uniform in height. Only 16 days into bud so not much to look at yet.

Thanks man

I was hoping and aiming for 2oz per plant when it all started, felt that was a reasonable yield for a first timer, so if i can avg 3oz/plant ill be very happy for sure

Day 59


More ambering on the Atomic

The 2 fruit punch are still swelling and not much change in the trics

Fp3 looks rough, she has looked like this since she had issues a few weeks back, I assume her leaves will never look good again but this plant has made the biggest leaps in size and bud structure this past 2 weeks, her trics are still clear and she has barely any red hairs, but man she's packing on weight and the buds are rock solid

Fp2 is slowly drying in the dark. Rh only 45-50 in there so hoping it will be fine. No other options , not gonna buy expensive humidifier just for drying purposes.
