Here is another grow I’m introducing into this thread that was started at the same time as the other 10 in the SOG. I wasn’t planning on showing this crop here but thought some of you might be interested in a good comparison so here it is.
I have a few different top shelf cultivars in this crop… 3 Trichomes & Cream, a couple Hubbas and Skylar Whites from Mephisto and a Cherry Cola from Fast Buds. All 8 plants are growing in 3 gallon plastic grow bags instead of 2 gallon like the others and were started in 4x4” Grodan blocks that are a inch taller than the blocks I’m using in the SOG. They’re being fed the same nutrients but going to be switching these over to organic fertilizers early in their flowering stage to see if there’s any difference. Around 12-14 days into flower I’ll cut all synthetic nutes from their diet and top dress each container with 1/3 cup of Down to Earth 4-8-4 and possibly some DTE Dolomite Lime dry amendments while having the plants in the SOG continue with General Hydroponics Flora Bloom and GH Koolbloom as their PK booster.
The style and method of growing will be a little different as well… this grow will be more like a SOG/SCROG type grow where the plants are held down and trained with a 3” scrog net for most of their flowering stage to increase the nodes up top and overall yield. Hoping there will be enough room in this 4x2’ tent later in the grow but just in case I do have a slightly larger tent waiting on standby.

Defoliated again and super cropped to prep for the net
