If you top on the 5th node that leaves 8 main colas, if you top on the 4th it's supposed to only be 6 mains if that makes sense.

Ok I'll do 5th next time just to see....
So far so good. I feel like I struggled the most the first few weeks of my grow. Once they fill the pot, it’s smooth sailing. How much water you giving those thangs? You like the halos thus far? You been using them for a while? Sorry for all of the questions, and I’m sorry if you’ve answered them already! Having a few beers after work before Celtics/Dubs start…been puffing too:smoking:
Hey no worries at all man glad to share the knowledge! And yeah once they get it filled out I no longer worry how much I water and they just are less temperamental in general. I usually give them a little bit more than 30 ounces which is equivalent to a little more than the medium subway cup that I use haha.
And yeah I love the halos. I have the res and my pump ultimately which makes it super easy but if they aren't hooked up like in the earlier stages I put a hose on them and water from the can through them. Makes it so I don't water too fast and it's in an even ring. This is my second grow with them and I wouldn't want to grow without them. Highly recommend! You can find them on eBay for cheaper as well if you get them all together. Think I paid like 40 or 50 for the 9 I have.

Day 13:
Turned up the lights some last night as my light measurements were showing a tad low. I think the Ogreberry still is getting a tad too much water as it's taking a bit to perk up and the pots aren't drying out as fast as I'd like, nothing I'm really too concerned with. I might just hold of on the next watering a day compared to the others. Everyone else is moving along! Decided to top all but the Ogreberry and CDLC at the 5th node. Getting close to seeing it already so it should fall within the 15-18 day window I like to do it on. Have a good weekend everyone! :smoking:

Two weeks old today! Keeping my eye out for a good window to top the ones selected. I watered everyone today as the pots were feeling light, some a little more than others but I'm trying to keep them on the same watering schedule. I watered the Ogreberry a little slower and with a little less water this time. Marathon was the driest and I may have watered it a tad too fast so its a bit droopy. They all seem to be loving the extra light. Happy Saturday everyone!

Hoo boy you are going to have a full tent in a few weeks. I know the guidelines are to top between 4/5 but I seem to always catch it at 5/6. I've not had one that didn't do well after.
