The ladies this morning:

GG, her buds seemed to get taller overnight. Watching her closely for signs of dampness or light stress:

NL1, in her new spot at the front of the tent. No reason for the move other than I was doing some work on them and it’s the order they went back in:

NL2:

The NLs look like uncontrolled monsters but things are actually quite neat under the canopy. I’ve been defoliating any leaves that donget light and tucking the rest. I also feel a lot more comfortable removing sections that aren’t going to see appreciable light to limit popcorn and let them focus on what matters.

I turned the heat back on in the tent room and moved the lights back from 18/6 to 20/4 and the girls are back to sucking down a gallon a day each. Will a 24/0 light schedule help the girls to mature faster? Especially GG? I know this is penny wise and pound foolish, but I want my harvest and I want it yesterday LOL.

This week I finished fine tuning and testing the auto top off tank that Man O Green has been helping me with. My prototype bucket is functioning beautifully and by about Wednesday this week I guess I’ll have 4 buckets connected to the reservoir. That’ll give me a good 2+ weeks to handle any last minute kinks before my 5 day mini vacation.

Looking good, DG! Start getting your trimming team together, cause you are going to need them with these monsters!

Looks amazing. I’m getting impatient too. I want to see those buds! I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait.

It looks like the freaking amazon in there, wow. Those plants are beasts. I know what you mean about getting impatient and the seemingly endless flowering, however from the looks of it you will be heavily rewarded. Great job so far!

I love the glue. It leteraly grows like a weed. Huge colas. Very similar to the bubba kush far a phenotype here is my bubba kush as of yesterday. She's getting frosty.

Looks gorgeous Tyler. That’s a helluva plant right there. You must be thrilled.

Do you think I should defoliate her at all?

The question was not for me but please allow my lame self to chime in too!

Personally (Can't stress this enough!), I would remove as many fan leaves that are blocking even half a budsite. Those growing on outer edges of pot should be left alone as backup nutes cos they dont bother no one and can show you a signal of the end when they yellow. Besides that, I have noticed light on budsites trumps all other light needs. Another major reason for me is bug/mold/rot prevention/ easier to spot.

You are gonna be one very happy lady soon! Lol

I appreciate ALL the help I can get. Thanks for answering my question. Very concerned about moisture as it’s pretty dense in there just with bud on bud.

I would If it was me the pics of mine were right after her haircut. I like to defoliate early in flower to help light get to the bud sites but I also train my plants for a even canopy which makes it easier to defoliate in my opinion. Don't take more than a 1/3 of the leaves it will hurt your yield. I was against cutting leaves for a long time and still somewhat am with autos. But with thick bushy plants like gorilla glue it's almost needed.
