I have always been a deer hunter but I have been wanting to go duck hunting. Never been though.
No need to be freaked out. I'm sure it will be fun. Just know your shooting boundaries and lanes.
I shot a spike a couple weeks ago and he put meat in the freezer and since have passed on a few doe in hopes of a big buck coming by me.
I am looking for a big buck but will take another smaller deer soon for more meat if Mr. Buck don't wanna come by. Patience is the key!!

I got the screen installed at 7 inches from the rez lids.
Yes only 7 inches so hold on to your britches. There is a method to the madness.
The screen is 4x3 and I am hoping to have it covered with 7-12 inch budz! Hopefully!
I am really enjoying these cooler temps. It is alot easier to have the light right on top of the plants and still maintain cooler temps. Maybe I can persuade them into purpling up during the flower.
I didn't install the auto feeder valves but I should be ok topping by hand as long as I don't leave for a week.

Thanks! It was off to a slow start but I think it's back on track now.

I can definitely tell the difference between the two on the left that got the LST as opposed to the two on the right that didn't get LST. They are bigger and bushier!
The last pic is "Bagseed" and has 10 blades on one leaf and 9 on the other at such an early age. It will be throwing down the 11 blades before long. Not that it has any relevance to the quality of the plant but it's cool looking. Added a little bit of nutes yest and they seem to be doing well with no sign of burns. The screen is empty now but wait another 2-3 weeks and that bitch will be covered with green grass.

Looks great.

Damn, your screen is low. So that's how you do it.

I regret experimenting with organics. My roots looked like yours once.

Yep I keep the screen low and trim as little undergrowth as possible and also like the budz 10-15 inches and solid if possible. If they are too tall above the screen then you will end up with golfball budz instead of donkey dicks. Strain also plays a big role in that. I am a big tucker when it comes to getting the fan leaves out of the way of new shoots. I think that helps me alot. More light, More budz! I'm not sure how the Extrema is gonna produce as opposed to the El Monstre from last grow. That is if I get a female from one of them. I'm pleased with my roots. They could be thicker and whiter but I'm just glad they are healthy! I'm hoping for a very good yield if I get my 2-3 females.

Edit: Some people put their screen at 12 inches but IMO that is a waste because they end up cutting a shitload of branches and budz from the undergrowth. I like to keep it minimal cutting and maximum budz!
