    This is how I been doin it lately

    Hi folks, I hope everyone is well and moderately sane. I am coming up on my sixth anniversary as a grower in July, and I'm on grow 16 right now. One box is in flower, and the other is in veg.

    That's Gorilla Cookies on right and Afgoo & Runtzmuffins on right: yup, two in one pot. Afgoo by Coastal Genetics out in Cali is a total winner at 28% THC & 3-10% CBD. She's sublime. This is the start of week 6 veg, there was a touch of root rot from a light leak that made Gor Cookies lag, but they are all growing strong now. Gor is growing around .5 inch per day. So I am training the girls on the right, who are at least 2.5" taller.

    I was too rough on one of Afgoo's stalks and snapped it, but not all the way. I fashioned a splint and put a wire around her to keep the wound vertical. Keep your fingers crossed!

    Box 2 in flower is starting week 7 and the stigmas are still mostly white with a tiny touch of yellow, all still erect, not dried and shriveled. These have 3-4 more weeks. They are taking their time: definitely not 8-weekers. I guess I mostly grow 9-10 wk flower hybrids, and I go for the real high THC strains. For me, it's worth the wait.

    Week 6 veg: See the measuring tape in the middle of the back wall? The break's at 12 inches, so you can see that Gor Cookies is steady growing up, while I keep training the other two in the right pot to keep them from getting too tall before the flip. Like Nebula says, The secret sauce is in the veg!!!!

    Nifty! Looks like a very sterile setup. I'm used to junk and dirt and leaves on the bottom of my tent and wires and cables from the top.
    How hot do the COBs get?

      HOWDY GINGER!!!!! The COBs don't get very hot at all, which is why I switched my older box away from the hotter lights that ate up electricity. I mean, I have to keep tying the colas down cuz of course they do foxtail and leaves burn if they stay too close to the lights. But they are awesome lights and have given me great results, phat buds. Give ole Dabbinator a scratch for me.

    Start of flower week 8 in one box, where buds are definitely fattening up, and day 4 in the other, where they are shooting up like weeds. And just for fun, an Imperial Jasper stone I cut and am currently polishing. Mother Nature is amazing.

      VaF I didn't build them!!! I bought them because I needed stealth and mobility. Had the older one for 6 years and they are built to last. Canadian brand: BCNL is the name.

    Start of week 9 in one box and 10 days into flower in the other box:

    STILL lots of white stigmas: she may be an eleven-weeker, but I know she has at least 2 more weeks:


    The other box had strech up to 16 inches since last Sunday: Jeez louise!!!

        Well look at the size of those colas. I think lollipoping really changes things and the care you give to understanding the grow. Very well done !
