This is a GDP 10 days into flower. Idk what to refer to the training I did to it as. It’s not as symmetrical as I’d like. This is the second time I defoliated it.

Manifold training. Helps produce larger colas with less larf.

Thanks!

There are a couple different styles, yours is more classic. There is a "Neptune" style that can get you more colas, if you're willing to give her the time. Here's a shot of one of my manifolds. 12 cola points

This is the wrong section. This should be posted in the Newbie section. This section is for Grow Threads. You can ask @sunni to move it for you.

Welcome to RIU though.

What are you trying to achieve

Here's her stalk tonight and her canopy

I’d like 8 colas that are fairly similar in size & easy to harvest/trim. I feel like the asymmetry isn’t going to give me that result but idk how exactly to get it more even. I’ve never flowered one this shape before so I’m excited to see in any case.

Just keep pulling those 4 bigger branches down until the other catch up.

you just have to tie some more or less until it looks even. They will also move towards the light and correct themselves sometimes. I simply refer to any method of tying for more colas as LST.

Not even growth bc not symmetrical like I thought might be, though she’s essentially all cola at about 4 weeks into flower (planning on 8-11wks).

She is budding up well, keep up the good work

Johiem · Feb 2, 2021

Thought I would drop in check on yours and drop a shot of mine, I decided to go ahead and scrog her and I'm not disappointed

bcf · Feb 3, 2021

Nice! She looks pleased as punch. I’d like to try scrogging as soon as I have a more permanent place to grow. What did you use for your frame/ grid/trellis materials?

Johiem · Feb 3, 2021

PVC pipe, and trimmer line!

I don’t feel like she thickened up much in past 8 days. She’s in 2g maybe that’s just the best her roots can support? I plan to put my second one trained similarly in a 5g before flower so I’ll compare eventually.

I love scrog
Things can get pretty full though
I have 4 GDP, day 13 flower right now.
Where did you get your seeds?

Yeah 5g minimum is a good idea, atleast it looks like you are in a fabric pot

To be completely honest ; it looked prime before your second defol-

You’ve got the right ideas - your timing is a bit off
