Already finished vegging with a time of 54 days, plants were topped once and plants have be defoliated twice before flipping to 12/12. Let me know what you guys think

 

Flowering day 1
This is my girls after flipping to flowering yesterday after a 30hr dark period
First photo not tucked
Second photo tucked

 

Flowering day 2 update
So now I'm all caught up and up to date
I'm going to be updating daily until I hit 2 weeks into flower as this is obviously when the plants going to fill in the most and stretch the most, after that I'll do weekly updates up until harvest.

As of today it's day 2 of the flowering phase and theplants are looking nice and healthy with the possibility of a little light bleaching of the leaves so raised the lights up 8 inches to take them 25 inches above the canopy, photo 1 is untucked and photo 2 is tucked. Let me know whatyou guys think

 

Thanks mate! Hopefully I'll not run into too many problems during flowering with me being so minimalistic with my nutrients

 

Flowering day 4 update

So at the min not too much has changed plants keep popping up every time I tuck them so I guess they are growing but not seeing any 'explosive' growth but that could be down to my impatience lol
Does anyone think growth will pick up anytime soon?

 

Start of flowering day 9

So after a short break just going to show you the progress that the plants are making, nothing major as I'd say this is the most boring time for a grow lol waiting in limbo for the budlets to form at around the 2-3 week mark. Plants are still going strong though although at the end of this week will be buying some flowering booster , cal mag, silicone, pk 9/18 and a root booster hopefully that will push us toward a nice yeild with some frosty buds

 

So we have successfully made it to the start of week 3 and after a long 2 hours I've finally finished my final tuck all the plants have started the grow pistils and we have mini buds.
The first photo is before the tuck and the second photo is after the tuck and final photo is just showing how much they had grown through in about 4 days

* On a side note the next grow I do I'll be making a stronger scrog net/frame as it seems as though the plants have pushed it up around 6 inches from where i set it at the beginning, this due to the frame bending and taking tension of the strings, also I'll be topping a couple more times too make the plants a bit more manageable as I've only topped once on this grow and it makes it a pain to tuck.

 

Cheers mate, they are finally on their way to being ready lol will post an update after week 3 has ended/ week 4 started

 

Little midweek update @ start of day 18.
So after tucking at the two week mark I was a bit nervous because I didn't know if it would stretch enough to have decent size buds but after taking a few photos today and comparing I'm so relived I did my final tuck! So without further adieu here is the plants today with a bud shot to accompany.

 

So after checking on my babies I was wondering why my e.c wasn't dropping as much as I'd expect and then looking in my top up resivour and it not hardly going down I decided to check my return lines and found the roots of my plants in there! So after half hour or so of pulling the roots back through into their pots it would seem as if the pots are starting to fill up as normal now and in a few hours will go and check the e.c and see how much it's dropped.

 

So kind of feel like I'm talking to my self but hey ho lol
Flowering day 20;
So recently after checking my min and max humidity I've found that night time humidity has been spiking at around 70-75rh must be because of all the added mass, no problems as such yet but didn't want to risk it so went and brought a 20L/day dehumidifier and hopefully that will keep me in the range of 50-55rh and kill another bird with the same stone and raise temps a little without having to rely on a space heater as much (kills the electric) also in a matter of a couple of days it seems as though my girls are still gaining size and fast! Can't wait till they get all stinky and frosty on me

 

Yeah it kind of seems like if for some people it's not all about them they don't want to know haha, I like looking at other people grows for the inspiration only way to properly learn I'd say! Amount of hours I've spent looking at grow journals and there's nothing to be jelly about lol anyone can do it by researching the hell out of it, I actually get jelly looking at other peoples and seeing that they are pulling 20oz from smaller tents with smaller lights and wondering how on earth they manage that... I'd be over the moon with just a Lb of this one (crossed fingers)

 

Cheers mate! I'll be sure to take a look around at yours and see what I'm contending with haha and that's what I'm hoping to do next time for a more even light spread on the canopy, what sort of yeild could you reasonably expect with 9 plants scrogged under 2k+ watts? And scroging isn't easy but it makes fellas like us appreciate the hard work lol

 

Little update on the last light cycle of week 3 (start of day 21)

So after experiencing some higher than hoped night time humidity I put the new dehumidifier on last night when the lights were off and checked humidity before lights come back on and it had a high of 49%RH, IT WORKED! yay no more worry about budrot. So with the stretch coming towards an end hopefully the buds will start to pack some size on them now and i can start casting some bud porn for you all hehe, not sure if anyone will bite but does anyone care to have a wild guess at what sort of yeild I may expect? Getting impatient now! Lol

Right so photos were taken just as the lights were warming up.....
