You were in business making kid's play houses and forts? I'm jealous man! Seriously, that is awesome bro.:clap:

BTW, I'm sorry to hear about your injury. I too was injured a few years ago with a broken back. I've had like 11 surgeries now I think. It sucks.:sad:

I have to agree with doc that's awesome! And I will ask if I need help currently I'm with my 8 nieces and nephews crazy!
 
Id start cutting off the bigger fan leaves more and more as the weeks progress. Im assuming they are sativa dominant and wont be fully ready til at least week 9 or 10 but your risking some issues with powdery mildew with all that leaf on leaf action u have goin on...

I know a lot of people may say differently but this much I know. Cutting off healthy fan leaves is not a good idea IMO. If they are more than 50% damaged then, yes, you should remove them.:weed:

Lol I should have specified I only remove the damaged leaves and ones that are in the way but that's rare as I was back to just focusing on the 2 I'm about to harvest those are the ones I've been removing fan leaves on lol just got some great smoke and thank you guys btw I enjoy learning so keep those opinions coming..as far as the ride here depends where you at? Though I do like docs idea better that would be something new! :D

yeah rene, IMO just from what ive read about, only cut of the shitty looking part of the leaves. the fan leaves create photosynthesis which helps in the flowering process so there very important for bud development...hope this helps

thanks guys! yeah it was awesome, we would draw up plans with the parents or whoever and then build what we transportable in our trucks and then build the rest and assemble it on site...in a few of them if they had more then one slide, i would dig a water hose under ground and attach it to the fort and then put a piece of PVC pipe on the top of the slide with the hose connected and drill tiny holes in it...BAM INSTANT WATER SLIDE! kids loved it and we made good money...we built a 3 story fort once, it had a picnic table on the very top about 25 feet up with a slide that went into the home owners pool....ill get out portfolio that we used to show customers...it was definitly a great way to make some serious side money and the best part was telling the kids it was ready, and we would play on it with them for a while...i miss it, but once im healed i will get back into it...my buddy still does it and every now and agian he comes over to use my table saw

Nice. good job thus far, but for 5 weeks flower they seem a bit behind. Im sure they will be fine they most likely just took a while to show their sex. Late Bloomer << ever heard that saying

I was injured in the line of duty. I crushed L-2 and L-3 and ruptured 2 discs. I've had several injections, a couple of minimally invasive experimental procedures that didn't do shit and finally they fused 3 of the vertebrae and stabilized the broken ones as best they could. I was actually really lucky. I can't do near what I used to but it's mainly due to chronic pain issues.:sad:
