That columbian gold looks almost identical to the pheno I just had. How is the smell?
Yeah I think I saw your post up on Chucker's Paradise, sounds much the same as this one. Kick ass potency, dirt, spicy, has something like thyme in there. When it cures it sweeten's up some, musty and spices in there. Didn't like the flavour much until it cured for a couple of weeks, it's not bad at all now. I got really lucky with this one, finishes in 7 weeks in my environment, likely 8 weeks under normal 12/12.

This one's from WoS, regular seed, was yours the same?

Nice coloration on the maturing ladies. Enjoying the cycle. :0)
Cheers JD, pulling some nice weights and frost from those 3gal ladies, 10 days max :) Really looking forward to seeing these new one's from seed develop, should be a decent pheno in there somewhere ;)

Ok, this is what I want to know. You've flipped the ones in the front here. How far from your light are they at this point??
I typically leave them where they are and let them stretch into the lights. I think it acclimates them better and coming in they're generally tight nodes, don't mind a little extra stretch. They're sitting about 33" from the lights right now. If I see they're not going to stretch much, or too much, I adjust them down. But generally I let them stretch into the lights and do one final adjustment when they're finished stretching.

I use a bunch of smaller bars 3x 100w, 2x 150w, and 1x 200w 42" wide at the back. If I have some really unwieldy sativas or the like I put them at the back and adjust the light above them, leave the others over the rest of them at a different height of needed. Two canopies if you will. I like the multiple smaller bars for that flexibility.

That makes sense to me...Thanks

Just to add here to what G said, I too have noticed that if you let the plants grow up into the lights instead of just slamming the lights on them and forcing them to acclimate you don't end up with burnt plants having issues with nutes etc. This is strain dependent of course I'm not saying a blanket statement of every strain out there but for the majority in my garden this is what I'm seeing whether using HID/CMH/LED.

Looking good in there bro, that Colombian gold though, damn................
