I tried to do too much too soon & they revolted lol it has been awhile since I've started from seed fortunately they're bouncing back just had to wait them out , this is gonna get good soon

Trial fitted the scrog on the purple primate this is the slowest part of the grow after this round I'll select the best clone & return to a single plant grow

Feeding the monkey juice

started training the purple primate today topping this soon really slows them down but will pay off later when I lay down the scrog

I think part of the healthy structure is genetics & part cob lighting I've raised the light just a bit to promote some stretch the roots in all 4 plants have started protruding out side of the pots as my medium has guano in it I'm giving the plants some time to deplete the nitrogen's out of the basement mix before giving full strength feeding I should of left them under the t-5 a few weeks longer next time I start from seed I will give mor consideration to allowing time for the seedlings to develop as soon as I can I'm gonna clone for my next round which I'm sure will develop much faster this round is gonna be more of a fact finding mission lol , meanwhile here is pics of the monkey juice after this mornings topping & training

Monkey juice one trails the other but I'm getting a good root system & soon it will be time for the scrog

Purple primate is proving to grow on the aggressive side gonna fit the scrog & kick the megacrop up to 3.5 gr.

I've had a busy weekend tomorrow I'm gonna pull the scrog & prune some stuff off the bottom of the plants & reinstall the scrog in its final configuration they're hungry & have good roots I have been really conservative with the nutes but 3.5 gr of megacrop I'm thinking will be just about right

Up until now my main focus has been on the primate but in spite of a few grower generated hiccups the monkey juice is growing on me & starting to shine its easier to pull the pots out & prune the bottoms for me In the next few days I'm faced with the decision of possibly putting the m\j in the cob tent I like it that much

Now for the purple primate which up until now has been my favorite based on its more aggressive growth rate has been my favorite but as I pulled them out to prune off the bottom stuff have decided to switch lights I see something in the monkey juice that I can't put a finger on but have decided needs the cobs so today I'm switching lights ! That leaves one issue & that's the return of the droopy leaves which I believe is from keeping the medium too wet which happens in the winter time & I'll flood every other day , but still increase my nutrient level in both tents

Monkey juice now under the cob light which has upped my lights on temps

The purple primate has a new light 520w. Vipar spectra which in gonna convert to 400w. of luminous cobs & mean well drivers soon meanwhile its generating much needed heat , I'll cover the light hack\build here I'm new to this but think I can make it happen, now to fill this screen !

Purple Primate soon I will be getting enough growth for a round of training

Monkey juice almost ready for the scrog

This is the light I'm going to hack as soon as this finishes it will have two mean well xlg 200h-ab drivers & 6 luminous cobs

Purple primate has dense foliage at some point will have to consider thinning

Monkey juice is waking up & I'm starting to like her growth characteristics

This is great! Was topping that early experimental or common practice? Just curious

I usually grow sativa dominant hybrids that are stretchy & topped early fill the scrog fast & you don't run out of room I don't think that would be necessary with either of these strains also I usually do single plant grows
