A manifold, a quadline and a furry helper

Had that moment where the yo-yos had to come out. Love that moment :big-smile:

I’m curious to know which method worked best to me it seemed the quadlined has more, bigger buds wonder if quality will be the tie breaker though?
 
I am in Tech and had to drive to New Jersey to convert a 200 person office to "working from home" over the weekend. Issued around 120 laptops since 8AM. Today the Governor declared that all retail would be closed, starting at 9PM tonight, "indefinitely".

Nothing like a little pressure to take your mind off the grow :-)
 
In the anticipation phase. More yo-yos! Started the flush, with some clean PH'd water for a few days (the Cha-ching gave me some extra tip-burn) and now going for two weeks of molasses (1 tsp/gal) and some CalMag (3ml/gal). They are looking and smelling great. Still drinking at the same rate so they seem to be still growing at the same pace.

I think that quadline has the fattest buds but will do a wet and dry weight per plant.

Guessing between the 5th and the 11th for harvest but will let the amber under the microscope decide exactly when.

Three of four plants dried and jarred. One plant left that needed another day or so before it would be ready.

So far:

Super Silver Haze Manifold: 131 gr / 4.6 oz
Super Silver Haze Quadline: 141 gr / 5.0 oz
Blue Cheese Manifold: 132 gr / 4.6 oz

The last girl looks like the biggest so guessing she comes in at 5oz +.

Hands down manifolding/quadlining with properly timed defoliation is the way to go in my experience to date.

Thanks everyone for your posts and advice and encouragement and pictures and all the threads started as cries for help so we can pool our knowledge (I read as many as I can) -- All of it makes us a better growing community! :smile:

All things being equal (and with a tiny sample) the Quad outgrew the Manifold. Still drying the other Manifold and will post her too. But the Manifold was easier to grow. Easier to train. So I have two hypothesis; (1) That the the way to optimize a 4x4X6.5, with 600w to 750w is - Six plants properly grown with a manifold to get every watt in the sweet spot OR (2) That the the way to optimize a 4x4X6.5, with 600w to 750w is - Four pants properly grown with a Quadline to get every watt in sweet spot.

I have not decided which way works best for me yet - So next grow will be six plants, trained with a manifold grow. The grow after will be four plants in a quadline grow. (yes I am a geek and like measures and numbers)
