Jin, you need to top those beasts this time! I'm telling you the Tahoe LOVES being topped. You'll be surprised how much of a difference it makes!
But if I did that, I would want to clone the cuttings, and I'm not sure I want to hassle with that just now - I'm so h igh these days, it's all I can do to adjust the ph. Lol. But man, you are tempting me.

It is hard throw'n 'possibles' away .. but the beauty of plants are .. they regenerate. And it is this quality why you should TOP um ! They react with INCREASED vigor to show you .. "F w/ me and I'll double .. do it again .. and I'll show you quadruple !"

Honestly ... it'll cut down on ur veg and increase the # of cola's. That can only be a GOOD thing w/ OG's yield issues. Please .. Please .. Please top um for me and AZ ! LoL :bigjoint::bigjoint:

No, no, no.... Your thinking of cutting WAYYYYYYYYY too much off bro. You CAN NOT CLONE the amount you should cut off. It will literally be probably 1/4" off the top. Just go 1 SINGLE NODE DOWN. DO NOT CUT OFF INCHES - When I clone i take 6" cuts, when I top the part thats getting cut off is only the highest node till there is a clear seperation down to the next node. This area I am referring to is aprox 1 millimeter usually. Maybe 2 or 3mm at the most. Literally just take the TOP off the plant.

Go 1 node down from the top, and cut those bitches Jin! DO IT! Trust me you'll be doing the opposite of hurting them or setting yourself back! They will love you for it!

Now is the time, ive been waiting to interject my asinine commentary till when I would top them if I was you :fire:

^ Dont forget you have the unique advantage of me already trying it on these exact same genetics, from the same spot. Some strains like to be topped, others dont. The Tahoe OG loves being topped. I guarantee it!

thanks guys

aw man, i wish i could try some old skunk.... i love skunk, but have been hesitant to grow it because of my proximity to neighbors. never smoked jack herer, but hear good things.
YES I will agree, the skunk strains stink alot more than then normal, even in veg they give off a perculiar funk... You have to be on good terms with your neigbours because there isnt much hiding the smell. I run 2 carbon filters and she's just now starting to take over rui thouse. We now have 4 compost bins around the house lol. We juice more fruit than you can imagine around this time to fill the bins up with pulp then come stink time, do some lawn mowing and open the compost bins and spread some filth!!!

Sup, kids?

They are starting to get legs now Jin :) It looks like a minor over-watering or your 1000Watter is a bloody beast of a thing!!! How many grows have you done with that globe? you know they increase in radiant heat by 20-30% when they deteriorate? just a thought....

I would top aswell, But thats me :p and ditch the snip!!! dont worry about cloning, you have 2 beautiful Tahoes, I think its time for a bit of experimenting :p dont you ;) I guarantee it will also shorten your node length by 30% minimum during flowering, or i'll smuggle an oz of Jack Skunk to you !!!!! Your coverage will end up being alot more shorter and gather more light as the surface area is more like a blanket of solar panels rather than a field of sunflowers if you will..... :)

Love ya work Jin!!!

Holy Guacamole Hornet !!! Those are PRETTY PURPLE FLOWERS man !!! How'd you get Chinese KF7 ?? WTH is it .. Indie .. Sativ .. cross ... ??? Either way .. :clap: that's a beautiful garden I'd like to be in :bigjoint:
Thanks man! Chinese KF7 is a hybrid but sativa dominant. Sannie is the breeder, he used to have them as feminized freebies but I think they were discontinued. It is supposed to flower in 10-12 weeks. This one is pretty much done at 7 1/2 weeks for some reason (50 day veg) .. i dropped the temperature on them early, so i think that triggered something, but the sativa stretch was very much evident at the beginning of flower, and the leaf shape, and plant structure etc. Never seen any plant fill out so quickly.. purple spears shot straight up off the screen 6-8 inches high and then just started stacking weight. :) kudos

Hey Jin! How are things? Your plants look nice, they grow so fast in your system, and greengurlz is highly entertaining. I'm currently growing some seeds I got from PO, Larry OG, started around the same time you started your clones. I'm doing soil and 400 watts (currently MH for veg), and I'm thinking about buying a new 400 watt HPS bulb for flower. Just wondering what you or other people on here thought about "what is the best" or does the brand/type really not matter, and any fresh 400 watt bulb will give out the same lumens and basically the same spectrum of light as the super expensive bulbs, or are the expensive bulbs worth it? Any comments would be greatly appreciated-

As for HPS brand I cant tell you which is best, ask the guy at your hydro store, but I do think it would be worth it to spend the extra $ on a super HPS. They will put out more lumens which will be worth the additional investment.

Now I know why ur Avatar is do'n the Happy Dance ! The flower structure is sooo tight for a Sativa .. the effects must keep you lofted for quite a few hrs. Love the visual appeal as well ... All around A+ . Ain't it comforting to know there's Cannabis cultivators still mastering the craft of personal relief and enjoyment.

To ALL of US who strive for the Best ... This Toke's 4U :bigjoint: ALL Aboard .. the Pineapple Express !!

Hey, buddy. Thanks for reading Green Gurlz. AzCannaMan know s what he's talkin' about. But yeah, a new HPS bulb will do you right in flower. Please share pictures of your project here... they'll likely end up on Green Gurlz.

Hey, dudes. Love the topping suggestions. And believe it or not, I was actually about to alcohol my blades last night, but I read a comment from our good friend, DieselDog, at Green Gurlz. And I quote:

"Please don’t top those beauties… In the long run each time you cut a top is a waste of a cola. If you weren’t SCROGing i could understand but it will just result in unnecessary stress and lower yield. You’re better than that."

Now first off, I would like to the thank the good DieselDog for reading and taking part in Green Gurlz. And his comment came at a time when I was giving deep thought to a new method of increasing vigor and possibly yield. And since his comment is very consistent with the underpinning of my new theory, I'll thank him once again.

Now I realize one method isn't necessarily better than another, given case by case variance and all that, so let me note that I really did entertain the idea of cutting since I recognize it as a legit technique for increasing yield.


But what am I talking about? What's my new theory that's consistent with Diesel's comment? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

I know what you're thinking. I've finally smoked one bowl too many, right?

Probably. But the answer to this riddle can be found at Green Gurlz (later).



Tune in and find what the fuck I'm riddlin' about. Now I'm gonna take another hit and probably end up taking a much-deserved nap, but all will be revealed later when I wake up.

Looking fabulous bro! Those roots are banging! :) what is your ppms at when they get thrown into the system? Just curious because your roots look great. Subbed up and along for the ride.
