On the 11th I decided it was time for the first full watering, full strength nutrients to 20% run off.
Dear lord these things took off like rockets. I'm fairly certain you can watch them grow in real time.
Have noticed a slight smell now too.

Figured it would be I do know why I’m doing I started coming around these parts over a year ago and I started 4 seeds with 4 CFLs. Come a long way. 😠glad it helped those girls were big I would also start with seedling / early veg nutes. I have done so much research 100 of hours. I had also had some failures and some wins over the last year this grow is my 8th so far or 9th. I also do 24 clones every time so I have a lot of test girls. Every failure is a way learned not to do something.

Looking great I just transplanted 24 clones. They are pointing towards the light today happy ladies. Glad you did the nutes too they will love it. You have the right way now you know when to add full watering and nute I would of added earlier though in my opinion. They have been big enough for awhile.

Toped 3 of the plants yesterday. It seems odd how that will help but seems to be the thing to do.
One plant I'm not going to top. My plan is to simply train it by bending the top down to get it to grow around the pot. I'm interested to see how well that works.

Are these about a month old in these pics?

Did you top just above the 3rd node?

The main stem normally grows the best looking buds, and the side branches don't seem to be as great. By topping it, you are breaking that dominance of one main cola, and creating 2 main colas.
I believe this also helps bulk up the nugs on the side branches. Not positive though.

Yup; I know why it's done.

Plants really seem to want to stay short and bush, did a some trimming today. Cut off the lower nodes following the main lineing method sorta. I'm just going with my gut that takeing the lower parts of the plant that are getting little to no light will help with growth.
Have noticed leafs are dark looking so I have cut back the nutrients.
One plant I'm letting go wild just to see what it's going to be like only training it by bending it over. It's a real bush..

Hey Fwril, looking good man, bending them over is a great way to get a bunch of big colas, plus it doesn't even slow them down any if your careful.

Looking good so far! I would just make sure the bushy one doesn't get wet between the leaves that are touching each other. That tends to happen when they lay on each other, and I believe it can leave to white powdery mildew if left alone. But looking good overall!

I mainlined one of mine today, which is topping at the same place you did yours. Then I removed all growth below the 3rd node. I did leave the fan leaves attached at the 3rd node. 1st time doing this. It's a little scary removing almost all the growth after over a month of growth.

Did another session of lst everything is doing well. One plant is definitely different than the others. It's wanting to be tall and spread out. The other plants are staying short and bushy.
I'm not really sure how much longer / bigger the plants need to be before I switch the light to 12/12 anyone have a suggestion?
