Give your lady a new shape

Hi Budders,
I`m on flowering stage 20 days, using cabinet grow area with 6x23CFL (2700k, 1600lmn), 1x100W Halolux Ceram (2100k, 1900lmn) and just have added Rep-Gro UVB 10.0 26W. Whole cabin is well ventilated with average temp. Soil 80/Air 90.
After I have lost two of overall three my plants I have decided to give stretch shape to my lady according to left space. Give a look, all comments & suggestions are most welcome.
I ll be updating my grow adventures in this thread. I am also very interested in changes with adding UVB rays to my spectrum. Read good article from Marijuana THC
My strain is Northern Light.

Thanks for the link - it is a great read, I've also posted the link at my grow journal.

I am very, very interested in the results you achieve and your comments.

Please keep us informed.

Top grew up 2 inches in 6h and climb up to the light. I wonder if it is worth to continue make her like spiral or just let produce buds on this stage.

90 is damn hot. you using co2?

I use two 1/4 gallon containers with mixture of yeast, sugar, water and baking soda. Plus one 1/4 gallon container with vinegar and add baking soda twice a day. I have plenty of time during the day so I can monitor CO2 emission. Yeast mixture is located near by the ordinary 60w warm white bulb which heat them up to produce CO2.
Today morning I have continue to my shape experiment. There are 8 nodes with formed new tops 90 degree part of my plant and cola. Rest of my plant nodes are 10 with formed flower tops on the average same high. I will post some new pictures by the end of todays light cycle.
I am satisfied with current level of growth which let me reach my main target (steady light illumination for each node with flowers).

Even if he didn't have c02, 90F is fine.

Few more pictures.
Light holder has PC fans from each side to cool the tops.

My plants get bent into all kinds of crazy shapes. Whatever I need to do to get an nice even canopy. I generally use insulated copper wire to make hooks to pull the branches where I want them.

Much like some Bonsai tree techniques....

Your leaves have 11 leaflets...odd. I've seen, 7, even 9 sometimes, but I have never seen 11. Nice plant

thegtiguy! this happens on mix-strains.

i have a few 13s on my plants. pretty cool stuff. i dont like my room getting above 85 ever. i like it to stay 70-75. easier to keep humidity levels low to prevent fungus/mold on my precious buds.

I have taken some more pics. Check this out

wow. just wow. those trics are looking great. keep it up. good read, too. i'm going to add a uv light to my set up after reading that.

very nice pics.. :drool: at the trichs

Two weeks after first post. Plant is going fine, stoped growing that fast but build flowers quite nice. I feed her every secound day 1/2 gallon water mixed with hesi nuts (tnt, bloom, phosphorus plus). NPK ratio is about 10-20-13. I wonder if adding UVB spectrum made trichomes smels better , only see big heads cover leafs like space invaders. It is around third week of real flowering (25.10 she went 12/12). What do you think?

i'm not sure how good those plants are - can't really be sure until i give them a try

seriously - looking very tasty and i like how you bonsai'ed them
