The Church

My 2 cents
Am growing Hydro (Ebb and Gro) 29 (9") pots, 3 plants to each 87 total.
Started out at 4 inc clones, trimmed bottom half through 4 weeks of veg.
Tallest was 12 inch and smallest was 9 inchs at end of veg.
All plants doubled in size in 12 days of Flower, Now at 4 weeks flower.
Tallest is 29 inch and smallest is 22. (Thought they were not supposed to strech much)
They grew just like WW.
They are a 9 week flower and at 5 weeks to go, there is some serious buds forming with very little side stuff (I cut most side stuff off up to 2 weeks of flowering)
Hope for some nice Center Coas.
Space is 68 inches x 50 inches X 72 inch tall.
Light is 1000w MH/HPS on a rail.
55 gal tank, supernatural Aqua grow/bloo, Hygrozyme, Sweet and H2O2.
Have topped 3 plants in 1 pot at 2 weeks veg, its hight is a little smaller than ave at 18 inchs (Looks ok just not great)
FIM 6 plants in 2 pots. Height is now 22 iinch, looks like about 3 top buds on each plant. the bud formation is only about half the size of a normal plant.
o and O.
Will try to remember to keep all updated later.

Hi all well they are still alive!!!!!!!!!! What u all think? When will they start flowering in uk south east?

My plant turned out great. I recommend the church to all newbie growers its a great smoke and easy to cultivate

i was considering the church, but when i went to order they were out so i ordered others. so many choices out there.

hI
As a Vet I use for medical purposes and it is great.
Growing no veg and bloom for only 8 weeds.
Use Superboost and bud blaster in weeks 6 and 7 rather than 7 and 8.
Enjoy the pic.

u live in south east? i used to live in south east london southark!

WOW! i didnt know you-tube had vids of individual strains either. ive just ordered these "church" seeds. i cant wait to get them now, that baby looks amazing! thanks for posting the link, happy growing guys.

i am a first time grower, have germinated 2 seeds (church) which are now about 3/4 of an inch out of the soil with seedling attached. i have just started them on an 18hr light cycle indoors. i am currently only adding water as my soil is rich. i have a bottle of feed and plan to start adding it to the water when i get my 2nd set of leaves. does anyone have any good tips on when to top and also can you top the lower level branches at an early stage and if so how early, without stumping vertical growth? also does anyone see any problems so far? when should i get reflectors for walls of grow room? plan to let grow for 4 weeks from now before flowering.

Maybe my question will sound stupid, but do you use any lamp or any other kind of lightning while you are growing the church indoor before putting it outdoor?

heard a lot of good things about the church but never grew it so its all speculation here!!

Hi
I have had several grows, and it is a good plant.
Do not top, but if you are indoor and have them close togethere 9 per meter.
Trim tHe bottome side shoots, I got the best results with 4 side branches and center cola.
I veged for 2 weeks and they ended up at 34 inches (Hydro - Ebb n GroW)
Good luck
PS have swithced to Sativa (Headband)

Newfriend, thanks for the advice about not topping them, that's good to know. How's the smoke? Is it a functional high or more of a night time high? +rep for the advice

i was just looking at cuttings of this yesterday...i think im going to pick up a few.

This strain caught my eye while i was doing some shopping earlier today, thanks for the info fellas, this is one I will be exploring in the future.

Hi
It kind of sneaks up on me not an instant hi
depending when you harvest.
Wife gets horny lol
Early its a head high (Clear trics)
Late its more of a couch high (Amber)
I try to harvest when the trics are mostly cloudy some amber but some clear.
It is a middle high then.
It is a good producer for sales, but I like a good sativa (Willie Nelson) my fav.
Good luck

Thanks for the info newfriend. I have yet to see a smoke report on the church, you gave me some good info. Sounds like a good evening smoke. Thanks.

I have some beans on the way from greenhouse. Why is it not advisable to top this strain? does it reduce cola sizes?

i got 2 pics of some church thats almost finished up in my album. it has alot of shoots on it own w/o topping. every node, both sides.

Would this be a good strain to grow if high humidity is a factor outdoors?

could you LST/fim this strain and if not why is it advised not to, because i fimmed mine and i didnt know you weren't suppose to but i guess they are recovering right now from the fim shock
