    That flower stretch is LEGIT. If you look at the middle wood braces you can see the growth, its been all of 4 days. I havent been able to get my AC hooked up yet, temperature and humidity are all over the place. I work 12+ hr shifts, tomorrow is the first day off so ill see what I can do.

      Looking great, you can very gently bend some branches outwards, like if you were trying to comb over you hair with your hands but over the branches, do this every day and they will lean a little bit and the lower buds will grow more

      54 days from seed to the switch, i would have switched them earlier though, but the new location wasn't set up yet.

      Thought I'd throw this in here, made this to show my buddy how much they've stretched since the switch, exactly 1 week.

        I thought I saw it on reddit but I must be tripping because I visit both sites very often. What a great stretch my friend

        I posted it after you said something. I text my friend photos of the grow and he's an avid follower on reddit too so he might have thrown something up.

      So, I can't recall how much I talked about it before, and turns out I'm to tired (lazy) to go back and read my previous posts, so ill break it down fast. Had a shed collecting dust in the backwoods on my land, moved it up front, cleaned her up nice, out the grow tent in it. Future plan is to create a grow SHED haha. Its 9.5 ft by 7.5ft or so.

      Anyway. Temps last work week got too high (low to mid 90s at one point), my air conditioner didn't make the initial move. Shed had a bunch of areas that needed sealed up, plus its a decent bit of cutting and fab work and my wife insisted there was other more important tasks to be done.

      So this afternoon/evening I was able to seal up 98% of the shed (doors are tricky) and get the AC installed and hooked up to my program. Plus the girls needed watered and my fan needed moved (ill post tomorrow about that, try not to clog this up too bad)

      End result. (You can see my garden and my adorable tobacoo plants through the cutout haha)

        Pistils showed up last night. Also, this is a pic of a leaf that was getting directly blown on by the fan (I had it sitting on the ground pointed up at an angle blowing from the bottom up). I had the fan on full power in order to get enough air movement, a hand full of leaves that were in the air path of the pretty heavy air flow look like this. Crispy to the touch. Seem normal to you guys? Everything else looks great

          Update photos.

          Its crazy dark outside my house and in the shed, every time I open the tent and stick my head in, the fantastic yellow glow of the HPS and the jungle of plants make me feel like I'm ganna fall through and end up in Narnia or something haha.

          I'm going to supercrop the 6 tops in the back left tomorrow night. They need a little discipline.

                  Pretty pretty. Modified my program to drop the temp closer to 75-80 ish degrees. At the highest. Waiting on funds for a large dehumidifier.

                      Thanks! I should have switched them like 2 weeks sooner honestly, they are still stretching and getting dangerously close to my light. Fortunately I havent seen any signs of light burn yet.

                        So this evening I did my 3 week defoliation. The other week I super cropped one of my ridiculously tall colas on my largest plant. It was painful to do it. However, its still alive and the buds are the same size and just as healthy as the rest of the plant. So I did it to 3 more (they were 2 inches from the light). Was a bit more gentle this time too. Im really hoping the stretch is about over.

                        No leaf discoloration or nutrient issues yet, still working on getting a large dehumidifier to get the humidity down to a comfortable level, ranges anywhere from 55% to 88%, weve had a lot of rain lately. I need to tinker with the program and the fans to figuee out the best set up.

                        Having issues removing the plants from the tent because of how tall they are, so im working on a solution to removed the excess water after watering (my current dilemma) so I dont have to take the plants out.

                        Otherwise. Pics!

                          Get a small shopvac to suck up excess water.

                        Yes or just wrap a big old towel around each base and remove when done draining. But investing in a shop vac is good also.

                          Have a hand water pump, used the towel (told my wife I needed a towel to sacrifice) for the excess, works good. Saves a ton of time not moving the plants!
