Lighting Duckster goes for seconds

Yes they were getting kind of tall but it was more to better utilize my limited space. 2' x 3' is gonna get a little crowded even if they are in smaller pots - 3gal vs 5gal last time.

Never tied down lowers, guess I'll try that. I usually tie down the tallest and let everything catch up then tie down the tallest and so on

Hey bro....I gotta agree. You definitely got the lst down. Soon you will be making them spiral and shite. Lol awesome work bro

Yeah thanks for the kind words bro. Just stumbling along as usual. Just trying to head off the problems early. The TS was looking like she was gonna get tall again. Last one was about 48" and I only have about 42-44" of height to work with.

Spiral - interesting - might be something to try with one big girl. Something like a moby dick or a fast and vast. Too much stuff to try and so little time and space! lol

Found the diagram i saw in the past for a spiral LST, dont think i would have the steady hand and patience to pull it off but damn does it look like a cool way of doing it.

Many thanks for that. Reminds me a little of the methods the wife's grandmother used to maximize her gardening area. She trained fruit trees to grow like a vineyard. Been wondering how I was going to pull off some of the bigger strains that I have. Vast & Fast, Northern Lights, and Moby Dick would be prime candidates for this. Also got a couple of photos that are supposed to get big (White Russian and NYC Diesel). One big plant in one big pot 7.5gal. Have to make some kind of structure to tie to. Got a while to figure it out but the juices are flowing.

Yeah been thinking about it a bit and would need a big girl to make it round the whole diameter of a big pot, or a photo strain and veg it till you make the full circle then flip to 12/12 to get all the tops to stretch out and flower, obviously the smaller the diameter of the pot the easier to get around it, maybe some tiered pot system.

I tied down every stem on my candy cane lady last round and she turned out to be a beast. I even started to make the turn with the main stem. She didn't have the legs to get all the way around but I gave it a shot. Lol

 

[Duckster]

Yep I remember her she was a bushy beast. But then again, Linda was pretty bushy too. I just noticed the way you ran the string through the hole on the pot.

Day 37
Another week closer to the finish line. Out of town for a couple of days and came home to two of the silly bitches in the light and the other within 1/2". Raised the light and broke out the whips and chains. Gave them yet another bondage session. Even the TBM got a dose this time. She was kind of stiff and I guess I didn't massage her enough prior to the bend because I gave her a slight kink. Not to worry says she "I like it kinky daddy". lmfao Sorry have been sampling the TS from the last round. Still tastes like shite but I'm glassy eyed and laughing so mission accomplished.

Back to the girls. With the bondage their tops are about 16". All are putting out pistols and starting bud development. The TBM leads the pack in that department. Noticed a bit of yellowing on a few leaves so I added a bit of Cal/Mag to the feed mix. Next week I will be doing a flush and starting to ramp up bloom nutes. Currently feeding 750ml every other day of:
1.75 ml/l AN pH perfect Grow
1.75 ml/l AN pH perfect Micro
1.75 ml/l AN pH perfect Bloom
1 ml/l AN B-52
1 ml/l GH cal/mag
