Just thought I would post a bit about my Barneys Farm LSD Pheno #5 Monster Cropper.

Here is where she started, 33 days into 12/12 (12/26/17) and I took 9 clones from 4 of the 5 flowering plants, she is in the lower right in this pic, only one of the clones to make it.

Here she is on 2/5/18, does not even look like cannabis. Took quite a bit of time to re-veg and the hormone change in the plant is very strange.

About a month later she is in a 3 gallon smart pot and tied down to the pot with soft ties.20180308_104149 (2).jpg

A couple of weeks later after I installed a 24 inch screen to tie her too.

I unbound her from the 24 inch 1.5x1.5 inch screen in prep for the next screen, a 36 inch 2x2 inches20180404_104315 (2).jpg
Same day installed the 36" screen and bound her too it.

A week later she is filling the screen.

4/19 she has filled the screen fairly well. So time for a trim.20180419_224449.jpg

So on 4/22 I trimmed everything below the 4th node, tied down to the screen, bent and bound smaller branches to fill the center.

What a tangled web she weaves.

Three days later 4/25 she is standing tall and the center is beginning to fill.

Now 5 days later,4/30 and she has filled the 36" screen.

She may be fat but damn she is short. 6 to 7 inches from the screen to the top of the plant. She is 10 inches from the base of the plant to the top. Again 4/30

4/30 and she has been flipped to 12/12

So here we go, 8 to 9 weeks, watering schedule has been changed. Not switching nutes but I have about 6 gallons of remaining nutes in my rez, so tonight at lights on we will run this as a flush, clean rez and put in new nutes. I will only increase the Canna A&B to 0.9 to 1 EC, have been running under 0.8 during veg.

Let's do this!

The top pic was taken on 4/23 and the bottom pic was taken 4/30. This whole grow has been like this, the root system is massive. 10 gallon smart pots. I have done a full defo twice during veg prior to but not to the extent of this last trim. What really makes the difference is the root system and the bending and turning of the smaller branches to fill the center. I move them every few days to get the best position for flower.

I use rain or RO water, my city water sucks.
I run Canna nutes at around 300 to 400 ppm in veg and my new rez after cleaning will start at 400 to 500 ppm for flower. I use all Canna nutes in veg till the last two weeks of veg and then begin adding Golden Tree at 5 ml/gal through flower. I use all Canna except Boost and PK13. I use Golden Tree and Liquid KoolBloom, also Mammoth at the start of flower.
I run DIY drip irrigation, two cycles, 1st at lights on (run 18/6 in veg), 3 two minutes cycles over a one hour period to just the start of DTW. The at 6 hours prior to lights off it's 2 three minute cycles and 1 two minute over an hours time to around 30% DTW.

i ph coco at 6.1. i swing down to 5.8, and up to 6.3, but always go back to 6.1.
honestly have no scientific basis for this, except looking at a thousand ph charts, and then noticing what seemed to work best for me.
