I’m in hard pots & I understand, thanks for that example bro. What’s the yield per plant for that setup or when you go small like that? & I def will veg then for two more weeks at least and see if I should flip. I’m going to take some cuttings as well and try my hand with some clones & do your method also. Checking your journal now

Not sure on small plant yield, this is my first one, I usually let them get 24 inch or so before flipping. My last grow bottomed my 2lb scale out with 7 plants in cages. Plus a good haul of kief! That’s a 7 gallon tote of buds.

I just saw something I need to bring to your attention. Make sure that yarn isn’t cutting into your branches and damaging them. I use soft coated plant wire from Amazon, it’s strong enough to hold them with just a hook bent in it, no need to twist it tight on them.

Sheeeesh! Those nugs are dense & frosty 
I def have a lot of experimenting to do 
thanks bro! Also, I made sure I loosely tied the yarn around the branches & it’s a real soft yarn, it’s not coarse at all

Update on the new girlies-- the one that was in the plastic cup fell and the roots got all messed up 
it’s now in the gray pot. I tried to salvage as much of the root system the best that I can, but it seems she took MAJOR Damage 
one of her fan leaves broke and the bottom leaves are drying up… but we’re going to thug it out and see if we can still make magic happen 
The other one in the peat cup is still looking good. I guess I’ll use this one now to judge the growth of the messed up one 
some yellowing at the tips, just upped the feeding to 800 ppm
Update on the big girlie! She’s looking good & perking up ( about a day or two after LST) 
Lights are at 75% and she’s about 10 1/2" from them. PPFD- approx at 500-600? Not sure if it’s too much.
Also checked runoff last night. PH & EC in were 5.98 & 1700. Out was basically the same, so I think that’s good right? 
Day Temps at 79F-81F & RH at 60%-75%.
Top dressed her with DR earth 463 2 Dyaus ago & im Currently feeding her once a day with DE 1-1-1 right before lights out, but I want to start feeding twice a day, for high frequency fertigation. But I like how she’s growing, don’t want to kill her vibe

She’s also about 8" tall. Checked her yesterday and she was 7", so she’s perking up fast Will flip to flower when she hits 12"-14" 
Topped my other girl about 2 days ago and I can see noticeable improvement! Her two new colas definitely got bigger and the lower stems are growing out more 
she should look like my big girl in no time! the root damage definitely stunted her (and I neglected her for a while) but we’re back on track!

She’s about 6" tall-- might too dress in a few days
Yes you can. I have a 5x5 on permanent 12/12. I drop photo beans in at times from start to finish. They will flip themselves when mature. Smaller but typically match an auto.

Wow! Thats gotta be an interesting grow. How long does it take you to harvest the 12x12 tent

@Growdoc sorry to bother you once again, but it looks like my girl is getting those wrinkly leaves again. I literally watered her once in the past 5 days… the coco still looks very wet tho, I’m going to wait a few days before watering/feeding. But is this really overwatering? Lol, She was looking “fine” just 5 days ago, I’m getting nervous now lol

5x5 and I am on a perpetual grow. 2 starter/veg/clone tents and the flower tent. 2 or 3 out and 2 or 3 in. If I run out so does the medical circle I grow for.

That’s what I’m talking about! I definitely wanna have a perpetual grow as well. Just started my first two clones , let’s see

Are those pots plastic or terra cotta? If plastic, do you have holes drilled in the sides and bottom. If there a cotta, I would get them into either a vented plastic pot of a fabric grow bag. Coco should dry out in a day or so, not 5. Also, what is your temp and humidity in there?

They’re plastic bro & there’s about 6 or 8 holes at the bottom of them. Temps are 77F-81F & RH is 50-70%. I’m not sure why the coco is staying wet for so long In that pot actually, it’s kind of odd. Admittedly, I need to do a much better job of removing run off. I’ve been lazy and may need to get a plant raiser

Absolutely do not let them sit in any runoff water! Those pots would benefit from holes in the sides as well, I melt a couple hundred holes in my 4 gallon buckets, really any plastic pot I use.

Got it! I may drill some extra holes in

Quick look at the girlies before lights out

Seeing symptoms of overwatering on almost all of my girlies. Not gonna water/feed them for the next two days and see if it helps. Only the one in the peat cup is gonna get watered because she’s a thirsty one!

Good morning from the girlies! Still no water for the big girls, going to water/feed today!

Looks like my damaged girl recovered nicely. Roots are at the bottom and should be ready for transplant soon.
Girl is getting real big , but I feel like growth has slowed a little bit? Not sure if I’m over reacting lol
