Hydo problem, any help?

Ok I built a cage for Rodan. Next comes the sling to lower cows in to feed her. I put a collar on her and along with her lower branches and nubs it holds her up. 1" PVC built a tight cage for her. I'm going to lose some of her buds but NOT all of them. I'll still get all her top colas. I then put another cage in the bathtub for the lateral branches to rest on. Some broke but they didn't snap off they are just floppy. I'm thinking they may die but I can remove them later if they do. I then tied everybody else up to Rodan's cage and to the light! Here's the images:

I think this will probably get me through the next 2 weeks but we'll see. But every day they go longer is better. Sheesh here I thought I was in the home stretch and nothing else could go wrong. Wow what did I know.

Thank you guys for the cage idea, bigz2277, kjac, lordjin, Dan, bear, bless you guys for helping me.
looking good man! way to go.

Look at the trunk on her compared to her sisters! She's obviously on roids! Lookin real good c2g, gratz on the grow and save of Rodan, enjoy your upcoming harvest.

Now that you've had you NFT fun, can we get you on a soiless container grow? I havent decided if I like the strain you're growing or not. The cut you gave me is now 36" tall and 5 weeks into bloom. It's a "messy" plant...especially compared to the stout little Bubba soldiers all around her. What we really need to do is get you flipping at under 12" to keep your crop managable and productive. Why don't you let me give you and Matt 4 bubbas in 2 gallon containers ready to flip?

CG you are the most generous person I know, thank you.:D I wouldn't have had the courage to have tried any of this if you didn't have my back so completely. First the marijuana you gave me is so effective, did I tell you 1 puff and I'm out, that night and for the next 4 days I don't need anymore. The pain relief lasts far past the high! OH MY god what a high! Within minutes my eyes actually cross, I see double and have trouble walking and then it's morning! LOL Then the Hydrologic Stealth RO filter that allows me to do this right and now the genetics, thank you again. I know precisely how precious your genetics are.

I also seriously doubt the AI will come anywhere even close to the potency of what you grow and since the mmj you grow is now taking the place of 80 mg. of morphine daily I am reliant on just that potency. So you put your Bubba's in 2 gallon pots all through flowering? I'll start transplanting my AI clones now into larger soilless containters. I plan on separating out 1 mother of each phenotype I have just in case.

Thank you!! I'll PM you and we can get together.

OH and I almost forgot to report, Rodan is just fine this morning. There are a few small branches that broke off but otherwise she's the picture of health. Interestingly I think this turned out well because now that she's boxed up her sisters on either side are now getting their fair share of light. So this will bulk them out more.

I think that's her phenotype! She is very different from her consistent sisters who were all 1/2 her size before I topped her. CG is right I need to flip under 1'. But I was saving for a big light and it took a little longer than I had hoped to get it.

looking good man! way to go.
Thanks Bigz I am so surprised by the resilience of this 'weed' LOL.

Bravo. Well done.
LOL thanks Dan. I will be so glad when the next 2 weeks are over. My NFT tube was never made to hold 6' plants! I think the sheer weight of Rodan took her through the NFT tube's hole. I only have a 10 gallon reservoir so I'm replacing 50% of it a day now! I'm looking forward to the soilless.

Oh and of course we now have an issue with the stoner dog. The dog absolutely loves pot!
