[SoOrbudgal]

Hail hail looks great OC very nice clean setup. Gals got a hair cut their feelin the fresh air under them lookin real happy

Topped, tied down and in their final home!

Looking great OC once I got a gram of Zkittlez boy it was so tasty and you got the gorilla strain boy howdy that's going to be fun.

Looking good with some of the biggest fan leaves I've grown. One more day before they get split up. It will be 3 tulip and a zkittlez in one half of 8x4 and 4 zkittlez in the other half.



All 5 zkittlez and the last tulip will get topped tomorrow night. The two biggest tulips are doing well since topping.

Hey Oldhippy I know a few guys who grow some really good stuff using those Viparspectra lights you mention but I dont have any experience personally.

From a nutrients perspective, i started with GH Flora Trio using the schedule available on this website and that worked well. Then to save cost and keep things simple I switched to Mega Crop. You can get a free sample online.

The good news is there is a guide for every topic on this website. Would recommend reading their guide to germination, vegetative, flowering, ventilation, lighting (including distance from plant) and plant training. Absorb the available info on those topics and try your best to duplicate is the fastest way to top notch smoke.

Let me know if you have specific questions

Looking for some help I bought 3 viparspectrum 450 leds with a veg and bloom switch they grew some party weed but could not get a buzz tried 3 different grows all from 3 different seed banks then I bought a next light mega bought from another seed bank same results this time I bought seeds from bc bud depo and am using both next light mega and the viper spectra also the last grows I used this shit called flower power and I this time I am not using any nuts so fat and if I do it won’t be that shit . Any input on this matter I’d appreciate it thanks oldhippy

I'm really excited for some of these harvests! Did a ton of research and had to jump through some hoops to get some of these seeds here in Canada.

[SoOrbudgal]

Man those are some great strains your growing from what I've read on seed site. I'm holding on wanting to see how these 6 work out in the tent. This will be exciting grow so many different strains.

Thanks guys. I regret not doing it just below 4th node now because she is just so much taller than her peers but leaving her alone like you both suggest.

[SoOrbudgal]

I agree let it be.

[Canuck147]

Leave it alone.

I topped the biggest Mokum's Tulip at 5th node when it had 6 going on 7 nodes. Now I'm thinking I should have topped above 3rd node because the distance between 3 and 4 is so big in comparison to 1-3. See photo



do you think I should have topped just below 4th node instead?
if so, would it be ok to do that today if I topped only yesterday?

Or should I just leave it alone?

Everyone else is doing fine. Planning to top everyone at the 5th node when they have 6 going on 7 but let me know if you have a better recommendation

[SoOrbudgal]

I think they look grand. Yes that little tulip seems to have great structure. I seem to get into trouble with gorilla strains, they are kinda touchy with ferts. at least for me.

[ocgreen]

Everyone is doing well for the most part. Some were maybe exposed to a little too much light because nodes are really close.

One Gorilla Zkittlez is twisted/deformed:


Largest Mokum's Tulip looks like it will have a beautiful structure and getting closer to being topped:



Everyone is getting 3g/gal of Mega Crop and 5ml/gal of GH cal-mag.

Thanks for following along

Onward and upward they go where they stop is up to you
