    They're loving more water. Leaves were curling just a bit. I thought this might be from them growing up towards the lights so i moved them up 2".

  • So the girls blew up! Oddly enough the strongest starter is the slowest and the late starter is now kicking all their asses.

    I topped them all today - was incredibly nervous about screwing it up, but I don't think I did too much damage. LSTed a little bit - just bent them to the side as much as I felt safe with. I feel lind of at a loss on how to lst what part, how, and in what direction. Even after absorbing a few videos.

    So far they look ok. I fed to runoff for the first time as well.

    First Grow - Day 20 - HG WW x California Snow Auto
  • Day 20. Pulled the girls out for a min so I could reorganize a bit. Added a second fan mounted to a shelf outside the tent as an active intake. Rerouted the exhaust through the roof hole. Cleaned up a bit.

    Leaf tucked and adjusted my LST on the plants.

    No feed today. Soil still quite damp.

  • Day 22. No feed today. Tied them down a little more but I have no idea if I'm doing this LST thing right. My plants seem to be too shirt and densely packed to get that really nice spread I see in so many LST threads. What am I doing wrong?

    Not much vertical growth since yesterday, but they look a little fuller I guess.

    First Grow - Day 24 (LST) - HG WW x California Snow Auto
  • Day 24.

    I got me some pipe cleaners and LSTed about 5-6 branches in each pot. This seems pretty difficult in these shirt, bushy monstrosities. Pots now sitting on pot elevators - which I got at our local hydroponics shop. Not only were they CHEAPER than anywhere on the internet, I was able to bring them home today. I will be going back there from now on!

    First Grow - Day 25 - HG WW x California Snow Auto
  • Day 25. Plants are being fed 7ml Big Bloom, 7ml Grow Big, 5 ml CalMag right now, which is 1/2 of recommended by FF. They seem to be perfectly fine with it, so I will bump up to 60% (9/9/5) on next feeding.

    Did a little LST adjusting today. I haven't quite got the hang of it that gets the cool looking LST that i see on so many of the other threads but I think they're looking good anyway.
