Took a week to heal bruising the main stem but top growth bouncing back now, I don't want to stress em anymore they growing nicely so time to flower just gave them bud igniter, bud factor x, bud candy, and sensei bloom A+B.
The seed packet says to go 8-9 weeks flower so looking to get a head start on that. I could have lollipopped some more but won't mind if I get some popcorn nugs. going to miss having these babies but I think I might try and get a monstercrop of both. nervous but excited

Looks like it's moderately root bound. Doing well despite that though. Do you have a bigger pot to put her in? Should yelled decently. Might want to tie her open so the inside gets more light/you avoid the inside of the plant getting too humid and risking mold.

I didn't even consider transplanting into a bigger smart pot, that sounds like a awesome idea. Transplanting smart pots is a pain but It might be worth it, i might even just cut it away. I think im going to buy a 15-20gal smart pot just need find right one, I might try tying some branches down to open it the middle up a bit more too. Thanks for suggestions

You can actually just stick that smart pot into/on top of a bigger one and the roots will grow through. You can puncture the interior pot of you want to speed up root growth but it's not necessary.

Dude right on, this will help me with better water distribution too

Lol retention more than distribution I think.
oh for sure both, if I water to close to edge atm I get some water seep on sides, i just slow the watering down give it time to spread.. super psyched about this, going to order a 25 gal smart pot.and just place current pot in with some more coco, maybe poke a few holes just gotta make sure I don't add to much height so she has room to stretch

she really goes for that light, The tallest cola is getting closer to light and I noticed change in growth, looking like more mature calyx growth. I am surprised I am not getting light bleaching that close, probably going to raise the light it can put out some heat. ordered a bigger pot and some bamboo stakes edit: 2nd day into 4th week, strain is 8-10 weeks but ill go 12 if thats what she wants, got eyeloop and trichs are pretty milky

So I cut a few holes in 5gal smart pot sides and put the 25 gal in the tent and dumped all my coco in it. I probably didnt need such a huge one but will be nice for next cycle. I staked some bamboo ioutside edge of 5gal so did all this without hopefully causing any root damage. used some plant ties to support main colas and also get some light to lower areas but this going to do daily adjusting This was a good bit of work in a tiny space. Anyways, looks funny cause its so massive but feeling good. also raised the LED light 3 inches, looks like i can still raise it another foot, maybe more if i run carbon filter on end of exhaust vent after fan. gonna keep going and hope i dont f*** anything up! happy growing yall

Man $80 for 12 beans is good deal for regular beans because I can't get them locally like you can......
I paid about $90 and got over 50 seeds from Herbies. Not the best deal as I found a seed search engine that finds the cheapests strain you can find on many different sites.

Getting along now, I think I shocked her with ferts or LED panel running too hot
going to be lollipopping next time for sure

What a monster! Nice grow on such a small space! Here I am with my 7 getting freaked out over space problems I have and here you are doing great in such a tight space. Thumbs up to you sir!

Harvest time! She had another two weeks in her but I already had a week long flush thru her and my LED panel is making more heat then I like! I plan to take it apart and use arctic silver 5 thermal paste, I might reverse fan direction get some higher quality fans, im sure you'll be able to see buds got a bit toasty, the purple buds are the densest and were closest to the light, like uncomfortably close but they were okay with light but variation in temperature and humidity (very dry area) would cook them out, Anyways, this is my first time ever flowering, so figuring out drying in dry area and curing, I have them in clean laundry basket with grocery bag paper at the bottom and over the top. I will move them around and maybe add more grocery paper to slow down drying process, anyways you can see the jar I thought I would barely fill! I also left some popcorn buds and leaves on the plant, if she will revegg that could be cool, even if less yield and take longer, for science http://imgur.com/a/XmMBP
