Taday was a busy one. First I cleaned out my cloner and replaced the micro sprayers. They were clogged because I ran some biolinks yucca/garlic extract threw it. dumb dumb. I also built a platform for the cloner instead of having it sit on top of another tub. Then I lollipopped the plants. I took off every thing below the screen. I left some of the higher fans, but took all bud sites off below the screen. I did a little weaving and watered with 6.5 mlpg Cocos A/B-.04 ml drip clean-1.1ml root excel-5ml multi zyme- and 5ml pro silica. I ph'd at 5.7. I will increase to 7.5 ml of the a/b week two.



Here are some shots of the lollipoppin'






The canopy



As requested, here is a branch I snapped and was hanging by half of the stem. I mended it 5 days ago. I took the bandage off tonight





This is one that healed a couple weeks ago.


The stuff I cut off tonight.



This is the cloner. 20 pk clones I cut off the two best looking girls and 4 of MBS 1 and 2 of MBS 2

Actually my plan was to veg under 2000 w MH for 10 days to fill the screen up before the flip. Because I vegged for 60 days under t-5's they were taller than my 14" screen, so I actually fed them threw the screen as I put it on. Then pulled them back under and started bending and weeviing. I will be cutting 2 weeks of my next veg time. :)

I've noticed they drain faster when watering with the perlite. I am not sure about the coco question. My medium is coco coir. I may add some Leca ( clay balls) to the top to detour insects from landing in the medium. I haven't yet, because I want to see how fast the medium is drying out on top.

I am not sure about the coco question.
The following quote is from page "5" of your last grow:

Day 11 -
I noticed tonight that the roots are really stretching out and are starting to come through the pots..
Originally I was going to line the bottom of the trays with coco and let the roots spread though the trays, but wasn't sure how the roots would fair growing through the pots..I guess I got my answer. I may try it on the next grow and try watering from the bottom.

The following quote is from page "5" of your last grow:
Oh yeah, I was going to fill the tray around the pots with some course coco or clay balls to let the roots grow throught he smart pots and into the trays. However, after seeing that the roots didn't even use all of the 7 gal smart pots last grow, I decided that would be a lot of work and not necessary. Sorry about, I forgot about that. I almost ran my first round with coco coir in the trays around the pots. i am glad I didin't now, maybe if I ever run a ebb&flow I will try it.

Yeah bro, you should have seen how dense they were. The floros make them very bushy. I didn't leave any of the shoots that weren't to the screen, which if you recall was hard for me to do last run. After seeing the result of those low hanging fruit, I decided to cut them all this time. I would have staged the lollipoppping, but I really want them to focus their energy on the buds and stretch now. I literally could have kept 100 clones off the 12 plants if I wanted.
As for the broken stalk, I broke one 4 weeks in on my last grow and was so bumbed. I taped it up and it actually grew into a nice fatty. Once they recover from the stress they are actually stronger and more hardy. They have been through a lot, with the transplant and scrog, they get to relax now and grow into beautiful buds. :bigjoint:

ya clones wouldve been cool to do a lot of work too but if they were already in flower its prob not worth it to revert them

Oh, I did keep clones. I kept 20 pk and 10 of the mbs. I just could have cut about 100 more.

im always accepting purp kush clones via mail(us) B)
lol I am sure they would love the trip. :)

Is the screen 14" from the bottom of the bag or from the base of the plant?
14" from the top of the medium.
