This is my first proper grow I've Helped my friend out with his, saved and flowered for5 weeks in my room his plants when he was getting busted .
I've grown in the forest quite slot which has been a learning curve aspecialy in the yk climate.
This is how these Floridalemon seeds started out , as freebies with my autos his summer.
Needles to say they got huge and only really started flower towards the end of September so my friend and I planned our rescue attempt .

We left the 3 lemons out and decided to bring them in the first week of flower or when the rains really set in . We usually do them together in his set up but this time my friend offered me £1000 shopping trip to buy an indoor set up( he's always trying to get me to take the dive)
So out of the 3 I get. 2 and he gets one image.jpg
There all 7 FT high , the one in the middle and on the right I was practicing topping and bending techniques which paid off .
One I split the main stem for about 12inches but it was unaffected I tied it up and was good as new.

Anyway onto the rescue, the plants were deep in a very busy smell wooded area '10miles from home . It's a 50m zigzag crawl to get in and out of our clearing. So we were worried, the last few autos got moved and finished inside but they were 3/4ft inc pot so 1 bin bag and it's protected .
So 2hours later after snap bending the last 6-12 inches of the too colas in the dark we've effectively got 3 giant black cones. Or what could easily be mistaken for a body bag lol.
Another 2 hours there safely in the van and on the way home to my 4x4x6

I've taken on the one I snapped and bent ( see how the V is leaning )
And the one un topped one which had fallen over and been growing sideways fur over a week .

*Apologising for and typos this is all on my phone *
My tent is a 1.2x2.2m I think darkroom 120
Light xxl sun master( beast slim reflector with 600hps,
300w dual spec cfl (150 blue 150 red) + a 300w red which I've used over the two diagonal opposite corners if low buds
6inch 1500mhr box fan with a climate control system I built for it , basically variacs at diff voltages for boost and trickle and temp sensor .
Rhino 152x600 filter and loads of acoustic ducting venting under the floor .

Took several hours and then done to tie and bend the flows for best spread but finally got somewhere

image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg Here's one to show the shear size of these badboys
, these are up to 2/3weeks after being in my tent .image.jpgWeek 3/4
image.jpg
image.jpg And this is tonight , 4-5weeks indoors not sure how long is left there 8 week flowers , butno idea when exactly switch was as it was natural . No ideas on yeild I'm hoping for 7.5 average per plant so 15, my best mate thinks that's atleadt figure .
Also been using a co2 bag in the tent , feeding weak canna A/B ,Boost, , zyme and just finished a 10day course of pk 13/14 , been drinking 3ltr per day each .
Temps are under control now I've had my driveway redone so vent had to go into room for a bit so temps been pushing 28c and some if the closest buds to the light were hitting 32c on my temp gun.
I've sorted it now though and got room back to 25/26c lights on and top buds are at 27/28 right under the filament .
Like I said before I've never done this alone before but I've seen a lot of rooms and always fantasied about what I'd do when I got the guts to grow

Thank you xD can't sleep, I've been meaning to document this for ages , only let down is my soil , cheap shit
Plants were just freebies added on to 20 autos . I was constantly trimming , tieing , bending to maximise bud sites . Read a lot about it never really done it. One thing I do get though is how hardy weed is . They take some brutality so I'm not scared to train it

It's making it a pain to work on though , navigating my hands and arm though a maze of wire spider webs as I've had to bend and tie branches in several positions to get the desired angel/space filled, be easier if the stalks were not so damn fat and if I moved it in vedge.
Can't wait to train one from seedling to flower next!

I had a little bit of bleaching where I've had the light so slammed and also the one with yellow leaf tips was one bud hitting 31-33c as it's directly. Under the lamp
