New to growing-OG City Diesel

The screen is nice but if you weave any of those or start tieing them and flip to flower and any turn male you are asking for trouble in my opinion. Sorry not trying to be rude but could become a nightmare quick

And 1/4 cup of nutrients and a solo cup of water? Is that all you are watering?

1/2 cup fresh water every day now with a 1/3 nutrients. They perk up nice all day if I add more water or nutrients they hang down/droop. If go long between feeds they droop. The green is deep and even on 90% of the leaves, the very bottom are showing slight yellowing.
The mesh is made to be cut on one end and will unwrap easily or I can tie off and cut out. Each line is it’s own and tied to a perimeter line, so taking one or two won’t make a difference.

Thank all feed back I greatly appreciated as it’s a learning experience. I’ve scrapped so many ideas before I started and I’m still doing it.

Yea it really doesnt sound like you are giving them enough water. Your in 5 gal buckets correct. Im in 2 gal fab pot and mine drinks a half gallon a day.

I tried more but they hang and don’t recover unless I let them dry a little. Now don’t forget what the font drink right a way is in the soil and rock at the bottom. I drained one and had approximately a solo cut of liquid.

This morning they the big one stretched 2 inches last night during the 6hr dark. I gave them 6oz more water 4hrs before lights out, soils still moist this morning. @Sirsmokes, what do you think is wrong with them. Now that I topped the big one it’s starting to grow out. The top two nodes are stretched 2in straight up from tiny sprout 1/8" most one day.

What are you running for lights MH and what are your distances. That what makes them stretch. In dark you usually wont get much stretch because theres no light for them to grow to. Unless you are starting to flower then during that 2 week period they do most of their stretching in the dark

Yea I think they are wanting to flower 3 of the 4 are stretching and the 4th is like banana leaves they get fatter and fatter. They are close to 1-1/2x my hand each palm is also longer than the other plant… The 3 other’s, the 7palm leaves are now 2x my hand that’s in the last two days. Light is 22" above this morning. It was 20 yesterday morning.

What light cycle are they on? They shouldnt start to flower until you are 12/12 light dark cycle. Unless they are autos.

18/6, it’s about the way they are behaving. Reading them kinda like pepper plants when they are ready to start, they beef up and kinda do a push up and out usually the stems thicken and do a slight color shift along the gains on the stems that what they look like.
They are at 60 days from sprout to today. They say they are 9-12 week harvest, I not pushing more just observing and more asking with all the signs should I put them in to flower or allow them to bush out more? I want to clone off these at some point, so knowing male/female first is of course most important. But I want to keep these cycling for a bit to make sure they are the best I can make them first.

By the way thanks for the back and forth, have MS my brain needs to be challanged or I loss nuropathways. It also makes me add notes to the Journal for the next grow and how best to expand the grow.
I looking at 2 more 2x4x8 tents. Clone and a mother tent. This one will be mother for now I want this to be my DWC tent , but the clone tent is getting close, need a few last things.

I have my other 2 strains I have to get going soon

You can flip them any time but i would let them bush out. Take advantage of the bigger buckets. It may take them a few dsys to take off once they realize they arent root bound anymore

Thanks I’ll take that advice.

Sorry about the delay. The good Ser Smokes has u on thr path tho. Let them put on another week or two of veg weight. Ull be grateful. Also do u have a full net shot?

Like this?

Yup. Another good week and plus flip ull be pushin a full net. Need to start cropping those tops sideways. So their side branches can reach upwards

Edit ima lazy cropper. I bent. Then let her straighten over a couple days. Then bend a higher point again. With a scrog u gotta give her the bizness

So maybe a second may 3rd scrog lower to branch out bottom the as it goes up add one to keep branching out. I know the will get about 80 inches tall.

Wait… im confused. Reword that please. Stoner brain

Do you use the net (used wrong words probably) to keep them down/train them.

Yes. U want her to fold over/under the net. As the top goes sideways, the sides go up towards the light/top. Soon u have multiple tops without having to top.

Ok that was alot. U follow?

Perfectly thanks, it not true topping your topping the whole plant figuratively.
