Looking very nice, healthy, lots of tops/colas coming in. Looks like they're just about to start throwing out the flowers. When they finish stretching and start budding you're in for a very full and stinky tent!
might have to follow your example n grab an Ona bucket lol...I just briefly touched one of the leaves this morning n one of my co-workers asked if I had a bag in my pocket a couple hours later :X

Ha, the ONA's not going to help you there, only way to get rid of that smell is scrub/wash it off. If it's smelling that strong now, should be a nice reek in a few weeks :shock:

What also works is reporting or pm-ing a global mod (gwn or sunni). Ime they're quite helpful when it comes to cleaning up troll comments from grow journals.

Anyway, don't worry about it, comes with the territory. A new PAB signs up everyday.

Finally ordered the new tent...I thought the girls would be able to squeeze in that 32" x 32" all the way through flower but there's just no way...They'll be a lot more comfortable in the new home (will be here in a week, cutting it close). I'm sure the 1 600w won't cover the full area, but I don't need to fill that tent necessarily. It's nice to have some breathing room and room to work around the plants, plus my goal has never been to produce huge yields, otherwise I'd be growing outdoors...just enjoying the hobby. Probably stick w/ the one 600w for the main light in there and maybe throw something up for side lighting in the future. From what I understand a 600w is optimal for about a 4' x 4' area, so there's gonna be some wasted / unusable space for a while... Better than not enough space I guess.

I did rough measurements of the widest points on the plants and this is basically what I've got stuffed into that little tent:

The green rectangles represent the rough measurements of the plants...and that's with them growing n that condensed area so I imagine they'd be quite a bit wider under different circumstances. They're completely overlapping and shading each other out atm but everything will be sorted out soon enough.

GG #1,is just shy of 4 foot tall now and ive been having a hell of a time keeping it that short even...i bend something down on it every day. Probably coulda been an NBA player if it was allowed to grow freely.

Nice! That's like a freak'n mansion in comparison to your current tent. Remember, they're like garages and closets, the more space you have, the more space you'll fill, better too many plants than too much junk though - lol Damn, a couple of those LEC Sun Systems would fit nicely in there ;)

Oh you're too right @GroErr ...the space will get filled - who am I trying to kid? :lol:

thanks 2 @sunni for cleaning up my little blowup there...I wasn't so much worried about what the dude said, but the fact he was here was making me worried about what was to come...trying to focus on this grow - not some bs drama.

Back to business:
A few of the clones are still having fairly slow growth, but this one GG #3 clone just said "Fuck what you heard - I'm a real plant" - Sorry about the quality...under a LED. Really don't know how to adjust it to look decent but I gave it a shot.
GG-3-Clone---Vigor.jpg That thing damn near caught up with the CSS that's been vegging for a month lmao.

Snapped a couple shots this afternoon - 5th day of flowering. Pom Poms starting to come out:

Canopy is out of control. Not much I can do until they get moved into the larger tent...really shoulda planned this out better. The CSS is buried in the back somewhere lol.

Clones chilling - everyone is still alive.
Here's a pic of them 9 days ago, and then a pic of today:

There's some heat stress going on at the top of the canopy in the flowering tent, but I can't raise the light much higher. Gonna try and tough it out until the new tent gets here.

the sweet black angel has buds 5 days into flowing??
Not quite. They are a lot fluffier than the pic looks, little clusters of pistils starring to twirl together. No density yet. Also I started my count 1 week after the flip, so more like 12 days if you want to start from the first day of 12/12.

IDK what to do...fucking plants are pretty much touching a 600w bulb lol. I've tied up lines from the supporting bars of the tent n tried tucking em under those, come back a day later and they've grown back up to the top again with the bend still in place -.- That other tent can't get here quick enough. It's looking like this coming Friday so 4ish days left to battle this canopy...I was half way tempted to top the sob's :-|

GG #1 and the SBA are both around 4.5 feet tall, and GG #3 is only like 2 ft. tall lol (got it propped up on a 5 gallon drywall bucket)...the CSS is getting up there with the taller girls, but that one is a lot more stretched out with wider inter-nodal distances (didn't get the same intense light from start to finish that the others did, being buried in the back).

Kind of a mess...hopefully the heat stress up top doesn't cause any nanners.

Is there any way you can take them out of the tent and hang your light from the ceiling and grow them out in the open for the 4ish days till the new tent arrives? Just make sure the room is completely dark during lights out. Aluminum foil over windows, towel at the bottom of the door so light can't come in the crack. I'm sure mrs. ayr0n won't like it much but it's only a few days...
