I've been using a moiture meter the whole grow and it seems to be right on though. I wonder sometimes if I should water a little on top. Any advice? Anyways, thanks for the comment about the ladies. They are pretty sweet to me I must say.
Well.. if you have 35 inches you are cutting it kind of thin.. cause to the height of the plants, you have to add the height of the pots....

And yeah.. I would a little more on top.. a little wont hurt...

Right, I will be cutting a little close, but if worse comes to worse, I'll just tie the shit of them to keep them as short and compact as possible. Thanks for the help man.

Yeah, I'm using PC fans as well. I had all kinds of problems still though. Its all straightened out now that it's getting warmer outside. I hope you get some nice buds man. Thanks for stopping.

Default Day 38 - Looks Great!!
What's going on ya'll? I just thought since I had nothing better to do this afternoon I might as well give you guys on here something to read about. Haha. The ladies are looking fabulous. I'm getting impatient. I want to start flowering soon, but know that a little more veg time will go a long way.

I worked a little on the plants this morning. When I say I worked on them I mean I did a little tying to try to level out the canopy.

(Pictures 1-3) THAI PLANT
As usual, my Thai plant is looking extraordinary. I think this is one of the most beautiful things I have ever grown/created/been a parent to. I wanted to try to create some more space, not that I'm running short now, but I feel I will be cutting it close on space near the end of flowering. The goal was to shorten the plants up as much as possible by means of LST. I was able to take some the side branches and tie them around, and make a really good tie on the main stalk that shortened the plant that was 7 inches down to 5 inches. I think that's pretty successful.

(Pictures 3-6) SOUR DIESEL
The SD has completely taken on a new identity. I didn't think this one was going to turn out so good, but I was wrong. It looks amazing now. I also started LST on this one. I thought it was getting tall and strong enough for it. I was able to shorten this one from 7 inches down to 5 as well, so both plants are just about the same height, give or take a few fractions of an inch. I noticed a little drooping on this one today, but both plants got water and nutes yesterday, so I dont think it's anything to be worried about. I'll let it dry out a bit before I give it another watering. Let me know what you think about the LST job on this one.

Picture 7 is the traditional birds eye view.

Let me know what you all think about everything. Any feedback is welcome!! Have a good weekend!!!!!

its something ive been working on this grow, just from my own experimenting. not to be confused with topping, which is commonly called pinching also.

but with many plants not just weed. pinching the stalks enough to break the vascular tissue inside the stem will slow the vegetative growth while it repairs that section, and will produce more buds above the pinch. im still learning how often you can do it with out pushing the plants too much. but they are definitely resilient little fuckers, so dont be scared, you wont hurt em with a ginger yet forceful touch.

Thats a pretty cool little trick. I appreciate the help. I'll give that a shot and we'll see what happens. Thanks a lot for stopping by man.
