Looking good there, definitely gonna yield pretty decent. I have been starting to mess with the hydro lately. Got a Blue Dream in a 5 gal dwc and just picked up a 45 site aero cloner the other day.

Update...

The monster is the one in the middle back, anyone think i should get rid of the smaller ones not flourishing as much to make room for the big one? Im planning on getting close to a QP maybe more from the big one...unsure of the genetics but its a monster! Let me know what you think!!

If it's a girl, go for it...Are the roots all tangled? If they're not TOO bad, I'd seperate 'em and put them in 5 gallon buckets each...or at least the bigger one/s.

They are all females, im still waiting on the back right, its showing signs of preflower but might have the possibility of being a hermie. I wont be able to transplant unless i move them all because of space constraints, im limited to what i have currently. Roots are in good shape, i can shake them loose only two are tied together a little..i will have to take a look.

Hell if it was me and your sure they are all females I'd keep em all... Might move to bigger buckets like stated above a buds a bud whether it produces a pound or an oz... Just my opinion but maybe try to throw a lil more light maybe a few cfls to the lower parts that's my plan...

I love my 5 gallon buckets, this girl is 10 days into flower and those roots have a little more room to fill out the bucket as she has her growth spurt...

Seems like a lot of ppl are switching to ScroG... I've thought about it myself but I'm planning on topping mine and seems like most ppl don't top in ScroG...

For the time being i havent removed them, one is very late at showing sex, that one might come out, there is still now only one suspect hermie..waiting for results. I just topped Res of bumped ppm up to 980 tomorrow im going up to 1080. I clipped quite a few top fan leaves, and started to trim up the growth. I ended up having to tie off because the monster keeps falling over, the hole for the basket is wearing down, i think i cut it a little to big, the net pots need more of a lip on them. More pics to follow!

Essentially they are all topped, because anything that doesnt grow above the canopy will get cut off, to focus more energy for the top colas.

I think i might run out of room, this strain has grown so much taller than i thought it was going to...pics to follow! Any ideas on how to control the height, i think that training is out of the question the main stem is close to an inch thick.

Try bending it into a training method... Mine weren't that thick but I had to keep em bent for a while and they trained like that but bending is what I'd try...
