GG4 and a Runtz with Jack's 321

Yep! Sure looks like my notes. Stole em straight from @Nicky

Never steered me wrong.

I’ve copied and pasted your recipes for other people. Idk what I was thinking, but @CLICKYBONES saying transition nutes made it click. Probably a couple days late starting it on one plant, but better late than never.

Middle of week five and the girls are doing good. They’ve all shown sex so they’re all getting MKP blend.


It took a little bit of rigging but I got the UVA light hung. It was knocking the main light off level so I used a bungee cord to straighten it out. Ran it two hours tonight. Probably run it a little more every day. Different sources say run uv 6 or 12 hours a day. Anyone have an opinion on that?

Nevermind. HLG says 12 hours so that’s what I’ll go with.

I had to rearrange my girls because of the one in the middle, Layla (formerly on the left). I do more LST on her almost daily. I tie the branches down and get the canopy even then every day at lights on she’s three or four inches taller than the other two. I’ve spread her out as wide as I can without using up all the space I need for training the other two. I’m at a loss at this point.



I’m thinking about starting to bend the branches back towards this middle. Only problem with that is there’s no way I’ll have room to bend all the branches in without blocking out the bud sites in the middle. I’ve seen this weird phenotype showing up in GG4s in other threads. Anyone have any suggestions on how to deal with this given my limited space?

Let’s ask @HappyHydroGrower @merlin44 @Newt @kaptain3d - those are the plant manipulators who come to mind that may have a thought or two about maximizing your space with the space-hogger :v:

Thanks for the tag Graysin!

@Outlaw it appears to me that you still have plenty of room to spread them out. IMO, I would put the smaller plant (on the left), in the middle since the other two have started to flower. You still have a little bit more room to spread them out. You just have to get creative on how you do it. Try to fill every little space of that tent while keeping all the bud sites the same height…

Anything you can do to tie them down or, a weight on a string to hold them down will help.
A scrog or a net is another option but, at this point in flower, there’s not much else to do but watch’em grow up.

One thing that helps me before they harden off is to mess with them before attempting any training. And, do it just before they go to sleep while the juices are flowing down. Messing with your plants does something to them that makes them more limp and easier to bend.

I’ll get in there and ruffle them up a little, and move them around some. It seems to make them easier to bend.

BTW, they look great. Good luck and keep’em Growin! :+1: :v: :sunglasses:

They look great. And I’d say you’re going to be OK on space. Good advice from @HappyHydroGrower .

Thank you fine gents. :v::100:

A net was my thought, but it absolutely isn’t my forte.

I would use wooden meat skewers and pieces of bamboo to “screen” it down… :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Something like this… :

Probably should have mentioned that I turn every one of them 1/4 of a turn every day after watering. They already make contact and I have to move branches to keep from breaking them. I’ve always done this, but now that the uv is on one side it seems more important. Should I stop doing that, the devout follower of Dr. Coco that I am?? Lol. I’d be able to use a lot more of the space effectively if I did.

Hummm… :thinking: Definitely can’t say do that but, It’s a decision only you can determine. Can’t speak to the UV light. So, wouldn’t know what to say there. Sorry. :+1:t2::v::sunglasses:

I’ll think about it. Probably get more benefit from spreading the branches out than anything. UV should have good coverage in the whole tent anyway. Just hoping I don’t feel like garbage in the morning. Everyone here except me has the flu. I went ahead and made a week’s worth of nutes in case I get it.

It looks complicated but is really easy to do. If you want to try and have any questions, just tag and I’ll help if I can! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: :nerd_face:

Hope you stay clear of that junk. Seems to be a lot of that going around right now. :call_me_hand:

If you don’t already know, when @kaptain3d speaks, take notes… if anybody can teach you a thing or two about a thing or two, Kaps the man.
Good luck! :+1:t2::v::sunglasses:

Flu took me out for a week. Happened at the worst time of course. It was all I could do to water the girls so I basically just raised the light up some and let them go. The youngest one in the middle is finally hitting it’s stretch and catching up height wise. I’ve been adding part MKP and part Big Bud powder the last couple feedings. Just cruising into flowering now.


Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

This little lady is always hiding in the background. Thought I’d give her a little bit of the spotlight. She’s a little over 15" tall right now. She started flowering really early, around three weeks into the grow.
