Looks like I may go all boys on my 4 Cowboys. Fuck.
However, I just up potted 7 Butch Cassidy and stuck em in the 10/14 tent and hope to have at least a couple females.

Whoo, 1 week delivery to Europeland just need my current grow to finish before I get the ape launched out of the atmosphere and out into space.

I was thinking of doing 2 x east coast stardawg and 2 x space gorilla next grow. Will they play ok together or am i better just sticking to one strain? (from a height perspective)

I dont know about the stretch on the alien pheno, I've grown alien rift and it was about average, doubled in size. Never grown GG but I'm pretty sure it's a little extra leggy. As far as that east coast stardawg, I've grown out the regular seeds(Dynamite diesel, not feminized) but it's the same genetics and they are up there with the stretchiest plants I've grown. You could expect them to about triple in size from flip.

I wouldn't be afraid to try it, just might have to do a little canopy managing is all :peace:

Thanks for your answer bud, that's pretty helpful. Do you think it's worth starting the east coast stardawg a couple of weeks after the SG in order to keep things even? Or would you just LST or scrog it or something?

Honestly I think I'd just start them at the same time. If one is really taking off from the other a handful of nodes in, then top it, and the other should catch up. If that were the case then youd probably also have to do a little super cropping to the taller one a short time later and that should keep them pretty even up to that point. Then if you put a trellis up prepping for flower and make sure you dont over croud the area you will have more wiggle room for whatever extra stretching that either one wants to do. Worst case scenario you could always raise one plant by some tupperware, blocks, ect.
Keep us all posted

Cheers bro, will be adding some photos here, and a journal for the next indoor grow.

Haven't been brave enough to supercrop yet, but I keep hearing it as a recommendation so I will probably look into it further next time round.
What I've found is to never just bend the branch backward or front without pinching slightly and twisting the branch 180 degrees first. I super crop like its second nature and have broke a lot of tops off, some plants will snap like twigs and some you couldn't break apart if tried.
But something about crushing, twisting, and then bending back or front ward causes the stem fibers to just weaken and simply want to lay over rather than snap clean off like I've experienced when I dont spin the stem 180 degrees and "pop" the stem fibers first. Watch some videos though and give it a shot :bigjoint:

Thanks for the advice, I'll try it next time on one of them... (I like small steps) :-)

LOL....I know, right? It takes a little courage the first time, but as NugHeuser says, soon you'll be looking for a stretcher to molest. It's fun to treat them girls rough...the keepers love it...and so do weed plants. :o

One tip: You can't do it half-a$$ed, or the plant will bounce back in hours as if it never happened. I pinch as hard as it will go, crushing the stem, then rock it back and forth to make sure it's thoroughly broke. Make sure when you do the pinch that you've chosen the direction you want it to lay. It'll recover in 24 - 36 hours no harm done.

Never bought any Greenpoint gear but this reverse auction thing has had me captivated the past few days. Quite addicting but still haven't pulled the trigger yet. Have been waiting on the Pioneer Kush. I see a lot of the same strains being listed. How is what gets listed decided?

Do they finish faster under 10/14 than 12/12?
I run 11 on 13 off. I only notice a slight power savings. No difference in buds. So hard to say if they mature faster cuz theres a harvest window of a week or so depending on how clear, cloudy or amber you like your trichs. People say harvest sooner under cobs also, but I haven't noticed. I still flower 8 - 9 weeks. I love the power savings with l e d that's for sure

Welcome to GPS auction anonymous bro. You may not have bid yet but you feel the rush already. Great support here...lol, you're in good company.
By the way I just finished 3 Pioneer Kush plants, highly recommend her. Keep watching for smoke report but it's no doubt dank as shit, smells great and rock hard frosty nugs, one pheno is pretty fat.
