Think the next move will be some dow rods so I can tie back her main leads but yeah she could use a bit more topping to get her to bush out better.
I didn't top my pheno. Kinda glad I didnt. Shes almost 3ft wide. And 4.5 ft tall. For a 5gal pot I'm impressed. But depends on how she flowers out. Right now shes lookn at making golf balls. Although some may be bigger.


Edit: I'll find a pic on day 1 and now. I would say she stretched 3xs easy.

If you clean up your lowers a bit now there's still plenty of time for whatever you trim off to be reallocated into the tops.

I've already trimmed alot of lowers off.
Right on, was just going by the pics you posted Wednesday. Appeared to be some stuff that won't amount to much still on the plant, kinda hard to tell 100% because of the angles and not actually being there for scale.

Cookie wrecks,
Some people will tell you not to trim but I promise nothing I removed was going to be worth messing with.

Now I have a great root system in place, plenty leaf left for photosynthesis and im not feeding larf.

My dog agrees

Cool dog.

I like your watering cutout in the cage. I did that same thing with my cages...super easy to get the water wand in there. :mrgreen:

These are about the stockiest sturdy plants I've had in the gardens.
Just did the same to mine, kinda quick hack job.
Still need to clean em up a bit._DSC2958.JPG

Super cropped the hell out of the H&H a while back, really flattened them out.
I've never grown Harlequin before to know the structure, but these girls are every bit as stout as the CWs.
They are just beautiful plants._DSC2952 - Copy.JPG

I finally got a card for the old camera so I can show how these girls are growing. To refresh, these LVTK were vegged about 6 weeks under a 400w mh and are at 52 days flowering under a 600w hps. They are in my recycled organic soil and have been water only since sprout until 2 weeks ago when I top dressed some stuff. They were up-potted twice. The tent has got into the 90s several times but they don't seem troubled by it too much. They both now stand about 4 feet tall.




They may stretch but I really dig the plants otherwise. I have 2 phenos. The fat bud one is in the 7 gal pot and has shorter node spacing and is more leafy which is nice to fuel the fatter buds. She's a heavy feeder, though. My soil mix usually gets them through nearly to the end but she's already yellowing just slightly. I top dressed some bagged chicken crap and some other shit about 2 weeks ago so she should be fine for another 4 weeks and then she can yellow all she wants. I'd call her "medium frosty" and the stem rub smells pungent and citrusy. She's staked in a weird way don't judge me. She stretched for 6 fucking weeks the bitch. Really caught me off guard but I should've prepared better. Oh well. She's gonna yield a lot.






The skinny bud pheno has longer node spacing and much smaller, denser sativa-looking buds that barely touch each other, and she's frostier too. The stem rub doesn't smell very loud, kind of sweet. She shot up a couple inches one day and got her top cola burnt a little. No biggie the new buddage is swallowing the burnt shit. Her pot is just a bit smaller, a 5 gal. This one is feeding lighter and still has dark green leaves. She won't yield quite as much but I'm hoping for some memorable smoke. I can just feel it.








I'll update once in a while.

I'm sure there are some new lowers that's popped out. I'll do another strip here in a day or two.

a piece of old garden hose cut to length and slit down the side to run around the opening would stop the bleeding brother. Most people have a messed up garden hose laying around somewhere ;-)
You're right, growing older does suck :-(
And those swimming pool foam noodles are awesome to slice down the middle and place on outdoor scrog cages etc especially the larger scrogs

So..I have
Lvtk
Cheap thrills
L.A affie
Triple nova
East coast sour diesel

Out of these strains can anyone recommend what will go well outdoors ? (Aust)
I'm more of a quality grower for personal use but still like a gd lb minimum on a plant to last me a while once cured.
They will be scrogged but height is not a factor at all.
The last few years I've been growing strains like sour kush,sharksbreath,Pakistan valley kush,sr71 and gth#1 with good results but this year I want to switch to an all cannaventure grow outdoors
Will be picking up gear in the Sept/Oct drop of new strains but they will be for the following season outdoors and in.

Rusty is a legend :)

This is my first foray into CVLand. I'm running multiples of LVTK, Triple Nova, Raspberry Kusk, and TK #2 outdoors. There are also some Cannarado selections in the mix. These are all just entering flower so I can't comment towards the finished product/etc. I'm also experimenting with using a shade cloth (for hail protection) so I can't say if what I am seeing is standard fare or not. Either way, these girls are all HUGE just the same. 30 gallon fabric pots. One of the TK#2 is the shortest...and she clocks in at a good 5 ft. Everything else is 6-7 ft. >>The s-t-r-e-t-c-h was massive<<. I topped everything twice and they still kept coming. Had I not topped them they would be single cola'd and 8-9 ft..easy. Had I known they would all get so big I would have done less plants. I guess that's not a bad problem to have....but it has kept me on my toes. I usually don't stake my girls...but these went so nuts I staked and trimmed/shaved their legs for the height I saw coming. They have simply eaten up the 6 ft stakes. Long ass spears full o' nugs are headin this way if all plays out as it looks like it could....fingers crossed.

The LVTK's all look fairly similar to me. Ditto the Triple nova's. I misplaced the marker on one plant in the bunch at the onset so she went unnamed. Then I saw the other Trip Nova starting to flower and I knew that that was what it is. The PRK exhibited 2 different cultivars. One is tall w/ lanky spacing...has huge fans..and seems somewhat finicky w/ some (big) fan leaf browning/drop. The other is what I'd say is a classic looking indica plant. Fat but smaller leaves...more leaves....tighter structure overall. A very lovely, slightly Xmas tree type bush. I didn't top either of these because they were a bit slower to go at the onset. There were 2 TK#2 phenos as well. One is a larger bush...fits in well with all the others in size/stature/etc. The shorter girl is a real gem. If I was doing a SOG indoors this would be the plant I'd clone the fuck out of. I rooted some cuts for a friend and the nodal spacing was insanely close together....and she reeks....you know what I'm sayin'.

I'll snap some pics once things head into high gear.
