looking good dude and subbed in........if you are planning some aggressive LST, pop over to my thread when you have time....I have made a framework that is cheap and easy to use that might help you....:smiley1:

2nd that!
I copied it lol....and will again and again! You can get more involved of course..install grommets around, but even then. You dont get the distance out from the pot with grommets, you are restricted to tying down closer to the main stalk, which isnt always ideal...the frame gives you several spots to tie down out like a couple or even a few inches out from the rim! Of course, depending on the room you have to spare in the tent and how long you extend the overlapping sections.. anyway...you'll see when you check it out

Thanks for tagging me in btw! Good luck man! Very very nice bean selection

Haha @Autobot-J you sound like me! the serial grow copycat haha.

I am definitely going to be doing something like the suggested framework... This is maybe one of the downfalls of using the fabric pots as in plastic one you can thread ties etc through the rim of the pot... I tried that with the glueberry pots... Just LOL. It could probably wrk but the[pot would be stupidly distorted and a pain to water. When i first staked them i think it took me 3 hours because i am such a noob. I remember thinking wtf! I have opted to try a new method of training using rubber bands and pushpins. I have seen this before... and it looks ridiculously east to tie down/adjust/remove ties.

I may try bending the whole plant over earlier, lets see. I have so much to do and think about.

Thank you, the only daunting thing is having them all and thinking...shit, im doing 4 at a time ahaahaha.

Now i just need @Vapo69 link for the framework and we can get cracking with some prep for week 3.

peace.

I had an idea...

What do you guys think of the following idea...

1. When I pull down the Glueberrys ill put them in a box to dry in the tent / separating the propagation side so the box is in total darkness...

2. Then put the current Lemon Zkittle and AVT in the tent...

3. Plant another 4 babies in a couple of weeks in the Sky100 vegging area...!!

I will be a busy man!!

I thought i would take a couple better photos of the vegging area...

peace.

Cool setup man! Got your Veg tee pee going on

Cool setup man! Got your Veg tee pee going on

hehehe hell yeah!!! I added a little modifications and lowered the lights as well.

3 of our girls have popped up. Yeah not 4... I thought they would have all popped. Especially as the three sprouted not too far from the others. I have moved the ungerminated Lemon Zkittle to the other side where it is a tad warmer near the oil heater... so lets see.

I did dig down a little and the seed was still there, obviously, although with some white striations on it. I dont know if this means it will break...

So i am going to give her another 3 days and see whats going on. If nothing then i think i will either put in another AVT or the single BCN Critical XXL seed that i have.. or a double grape... hmmmmm... I really just want her to germinate though lol. I would put it down to a dodgy seed but its probably something i have done to fuck it up lol.

At the same time i don't want to call time on her and abandon something that could be beautiful, thats what happened with the runt of the last grow and she turned out lovely.

The first was my little Alien Girl... She popped her head out after 4 days. And she has had a good start so far. Here she is on day 2.

AVT

Lemon Zkittles

The first lemon seemed to pop up without a care.

The second lemon zkittle to pop has given me a surprise.... The more eagle eyed of you will see there is two plants that have germinated in the pot... WTF. i only planted 1 never mind

Heere is the non starter... well the pot

There's not that much else to report here so hang tight and i will let you know what the progress on the fourth girl is in due course.
