If you flipped these on 3rd of November and only added support net yesterday i really think it needs lowering at least 6inches into canopy. Next time you add a support net then add it at canopy height after 2 weeks on 12/12 as it should be done imho, doing this at that time will give plants chance to grow through it. As it`s set now you may get some odd bud tops growing through but it will hardly be supporting the plant or rest of buds properly.

Banging looking grow though @Ghost_In_A_Jar your smashing it now mate. :nice:
They were flipped on the 1st Nov. Yeah it probs was a bit late, but I haven’t got anything smaller to put the net on and still need to get around the tent…
I’ll have something more suitable for the next time around 😁

Thanks though, it’s been a trial to get here but Keeno has been there for every step and turned it around nicely 👌

Can you not just lower it six to eight inches into canopy and tie net taught/tight to legs on your frame ? Doing that will be more than ample enough to hold plants up whilst in full on flowering, it will just support buds and stop plants from toppling or leaning doing that. Then just pull tops through net that are high enough. For future reference though as said previously its best adding a support net at canopy height around 2 weeks into 12/12. You could also look at removing up to a bottom 3rd of plants foliage away cus light wont really get down their and it helps with bringing top buds on imo, other peeps opinions may differ to that.

Either way your doing a cracking job now you`ve got them this far. :nice:

Ah yes, good idea! I’ll get in there and tie it to the leg of the support frame.
I think Keeno has said to do the lower bits at the end of this week, so I’ll clear them out on Friday night.
Going to be a bit of work cos they are thick as hell at the bottom.
Only issue at the moment is keeping the temps up. Humidity is in the 40’s so I’m happy with that. I’d just like the fan heaters to be off for a bit. More to save on the electric than anything else 😂😂

Yup its a mare during winter months paying for leccy and gas even without growing costs enough as is.

When you remove lower leafage/greenery if you see and really thin crappy stems that are low down, they wont amount to much so maybe an idea removing those as well. I did mine a week or so back around 10days i think it was into bloom and will be doing them again this week sometime around 3 weeks in and also removing some big daft fan leaves from the whole plant, maybe not all but still plenty. Here`s a pic just as a guide, but look at removing up to bottom 3rd.

Ok cool, I’m going to do it at the end of the week. Had a quick catch up with Keeno and he’s said to crack on at this point so all good 👍
Thanks for the pics. It’s similar to what I do with autos, but I would have stripped a load more leaf and bottom growth by now.
I think the idea was to let as many of the lower shoots reach the higher parts before cutting everything out.
My last lot of photos weren’t great, so I’ve been sticking rigidly to Keeno’s instructions 😁 he’s given me a list of dates of when to start changing feed etc.

Honestly though, I’m pretty surprised how well they have turned around.

Quick update,
Refilled the tank again tonight.
1.25m/l a+b
1m/l resinator
Ph at 6.1
They have destroyed 100lt of feed in the last 6 days.
Most are touching or already poking through the net so it’s just going to stay where it is and help the longer colas as they go through it.
Added a 600w hps to kick in and help with a bit of extra heat over the frosty gelato.
Everything seems to be ticking along pretty ok, so I’ll stick with the plan and hope that I can keep the rh at the level it’s at.

Quick update before mid flower flush.
Still on 1.25m/l a and b
Upped resinator to 1.25m/l
Ph at 6.1
The two autos aren’t the happiest plants in the world, but they are just going to have to deal with it 😂
I’ll update again after the new feed has gone in and there has been some decent movement on the buds swelling up.
Big thanks to Keeno for the non stop support on this. Wouldn’t be anywhere near this healthy without the help.

Day 42 and things are looking pretty good. Smell is non existent outside of the tent, but sweet when the door is open.
Added .15m/l of CX Headmasta to the mix and .1m/l of CX mighty bloom.
Ph is set at 6.1 and it’s pretty much a run now until flush 🤘

Last tank full of feed before we start the flush.
A and B at 1.25m/l
Rock resinator at 1.25m/l
CX Bloom at .25m/l
CX Headmasta at .25m/l
Ph at 6.1 (after a heavy nute rinse to reset the pots)
About another week and we should be on flush 👌 well that’s the plan 😂

Flush started! Probs run it between 7-14 days. And that’ll hopefully be that 👌🤟
Ph’d plain old tap water to 6.1
I’ll update again when I’ve chopped.
Thanks to Keeno for his patience and help with this one. Deffo a coco convert.
Seemed daunting at the start, but now I’ve got my head around a base feed schedule, I can adjust it as the plants need it.
Many lesson learnt during this grow and some truly valuable knowledge gained.

Thanks to all who have chipped in and given some support with this grow. Always appreciated 🤟
