Day 36 update:
All is going grand!
I had to drop the ppm of the reservoir as the levels were still too high for the other 3 ladies sharing the rez - hopefully the reduction won't have much affect on this lady.
The ppm of the res is 550, but dropping by 20ppm or so daily.
That's seems to be the sweet spot to keep all the ladies relatively happy - multiple strains in the same reservoir is a pain :backside:
This lady is the biggest so far and is getting a lot of LST and leaf tucking.
Probably time to do some extreme defoliation as it is getting bushy.

With the LST, I have been able to keep a relatively level canopy for all 4 plants.

The single 150W COB has now been turned up to 75Watts and I will be gradually increasing it between now and hitting full flower.
Going to be interesting to see what I can get from 150W of COB in a 1.2m x 1.2m tent...
 
Day 37 - Haircut time!

Day 42 Update
Still roaring along.
Definitely the biggest lady in my tent, though I am managing to keep the canopy level through judicious use of some Bondage :naughtystep:
This is necessary due to running the 4 plants in the tent under a single COB (now running at just under 100W)

Day 45 - Res change
I did a full res change yesterday and decided to increase the nutrients a touch.

Tap water (200ppm)
50g MegaCrop
20ml Remo Magnifical
20ml Remo Astro Flower
Atamai Ataclean
Water Surfactant
Great White beneficials.

ppm is now 700
pH 5.9

Still no sign of pistils yet and she is getting rather large.
I am getting flashbacks of my last grow where one of the Autos turned out to be a Photo.

Other than the lack of pistils, she is going great.
Another run of defoliation will probably be done before the weekend.

Full Tent - Northern Lights is back-left and is just over 2ft x 2ft.
The LST is keeping the canopy nicely level but I may throw out a SCROG net soon (after defol)

WE HAVE PISTILS !!!
Went to check on the ladies before lights out and pistils have shown their beautiful faces. :worship:
Pictures tomorrow.
Sitting down now to have a celebratory smoke :pass:

Gonna be pushing 90+ days on this I think and the final pic has to be in by day 94...
 
DAY 48 UPDATE
This thing is a beast!
About 27" x 27" and going vertical now.
I can't get any more of her under the SCROG so vertical is the only place to go now.
She had some more training and defoliation today -just before the pics, so looks a touch droopy. Will pick up in an hour or so.
The COB is now at 150W and has been for the last few days. No issues with leaf curl or burning, so all is well.

pH: 6.0
ppm: 730
Air temp: 19C-24C
Humidity: 55-60%

Reservoir change yesterday to the following:

60L tap water - 200ppm
65g Mega Crop
10ml Remo Magnifical
30ml Remo Astroflower
10ml Surfactant
10ml Atamai Ataclean
Great White

pH 5.9
ppm 800 (ppm 500 scale)

There are pistils here if you look VERY carefully...

Taking up a lot of room:

No option but to go vertical now ;)
 
Day 57 update.
Minor nute burn on the tips of some growth, so I have dropped the ppm a touch.
This lady was a solid mass of leaves, so I had to take the trimmer to her again.
IMAG0344.jpg

She looks a touch poorly, but thats only because I trimmed her about 30 seconds before this pic was taken.
She should be all happy in an hour or so.

Current readings:
ppm: 810 (ppm 500 scale)
pH: 6.0
Water temp: 19-20C
Air temp: 22-24C
Humidity: 55-60%

Couldn't be more pleased with this lady. She is huuuuge and still growing.
I should get a solid ounce from her ;)
