do you think a DWC grow of this size would help you yield more?
thats a good question. im not sure. it probably would. but that would be a whole lot of work.
Sup rb.. I think riu un-subbed me..
Anyways, hope u still have some unflushed budd around so u can see there ain't no
difference between the 2
glad you found the thread again. i do have a little left. if there is no difference. why does everyone swear up and down that there is? i never have flushed before, this will be the first time.

screen? still confused as to what you ae talking about...
LMAO, sorry Bro, no worries. I was referring to what ever the black squares are on top of your trays, looks like elctrical tape or something in your video. I see now it is too low to be a scog screen, hell it might be a shadow or somthing. Anyway, no biggie, just curious. You ladies look fuckin great tho mang! + rep

I've been following your thread closely because I am currently growing some purple kush plants under 4k right now. It's not SOG becuase the clones were from a flowering plant and started stretching way too fast. I resorted to topping them a few times and trimming the lower growth. I'm running co2 myself and the stretch from that required a trellis net.

I took the advice to cut all the fan leaves and now i'm left with rows of colas, though not sog, the coverage is pretty substantial. I'd be interested to see the difference in our outcomes. Here they are at day 25, a couple days after I removed the fan leaves.

bcos it's voodoo hype man, it sells expensive flush products and secret sauces,..same reason ppl add honey and mollasses to there rez's, crazy..
The best growers I know don't flush either, it's in the cure,. But urs should be a good comparison

and GREENGENIOUS.. Brave move cutting all ur fan leaves man, I hope it works out for u man, I read more of that guys journal and he actually claims up to 10gram increase per plant.. But that is on the strains he uses,.. By memory are skunk1 and some chem diesel crosses.. Gl.

i would love t see the difference as well. one difference is i will have nothing but top colas but i would love to see the difference in weight. im thinking of lowering my plant numbers and vegging longer to see the difference. if you yield more i would probably switch

i will let you know what the difference is if there is any at all. probably just hype. im still thinking of cutting all the fans on one of my trays. kinda skeptical though. i dont wanna mess up a whole tray... i might just do it on a few.

yeh it'd be cool to get ur opinion man.. And as for the haircut, yeh maybe not a whole tray bcos the pk might not like it,.. But do like a cluster fuck of them in a spot, to make sure alot of light is getting down to all the buds cos he says it's the extra light that get them bigger,.. And I think wot he also says that the bud leaves, the ones growing out the buds, are enough leaves for the plant to fully function..

Anyways I hope u understand that ^^ cos I'm pretty effin stoned atm homie

i mist mine twice a day. and leave the vent on the dome slightly cracked. after a week or so i open the vents up completely.

Thanks man. Hey a few of mine started to bend over, looks pretty bad are they ruin? I didnt leave my dome crack for air but I just cracked it a lil bit for air now. The humid is from 50-60% is that ok? Hey if you or anyone got any pointers on cloneing please let me know thanks. + rep Hey RB hows everything going with yours anything new?

you will be able to tell if they are bad. what medium are you using? i use root riot cubes. i have used all mediums and they work the best and are easy to use because the come pre-moistened. i use them with clonex. slice clone at an angle about 1 cm before node. dip in clonex. and place in root riot cube.

DUDE PLEASE PLEASE cut some of your FAN LEAVES. I really do think they take up a LOT of energy and lumens just to stay green and alive. Why not have fewer fan leaves sucking up more lumens with less shadow than more and having those extra leaves trying to sustain themselves?

i think of it like taking cuttings (clones). Basically some people CUT their leaves in half because they take up too much energy to stay alive before the roots get going. Sure the roots fix all this but what if all that extra energy was spent on cola production rather than sustaining leaf strength and life?

I only cut the fan leaves on the upper third of the plant so all the leaves below the bud sites stayed... they weren't happy the first couple days but they are filling in with weight now and are not showing any signs of stress.
I only vegged mine longer because they were already too tall for sog, so I simply topped them twice and went with 3-4 main colas. I still cut the lower branches as space wouln't permit.

i dont think ill cut the fan leaves all the way off. the ones that are huge and blocking other plants ill cut in half. i think that way i get the best of both worlds.
