I put another layer up. I just couldn’t stand to look at that floppage and nug on nug violence. Luckily these are the elastic band type nets and not hard plastic so I was able to be quite gentle on the nugs, just grabbing them by a fanleaf and guiding them through. I think I will re adjust them a little and defoliate them tomorrow, day 49. A bit behind the norm of 42 but it’s all good in the hood.

I still have yet to put up the trellis for the doc tho. I’m a really bad procrastinator, can’t tell you how many times I waited till week 6 to start staking up buds lol.

Used the technique tonight on a plant just about to start week 6. Let’s see how it goes. I’ve got two others identical that I won’t touch. Should give a good comparison.

I defoliated the Big Nose Kates today and put up some trellis. I’ll probably raise up the top net some. Cleaned up the lowers a tad but also left a bunch for reveg and sexual stability observation. Hopefully smooth sailing from here on out.

Did a little more defol on the barefoot doctor scrog. I still need to get a little more off I think.

Looks good. I think they have fattened up for sure since adding the net. Even after the defoliation

Word and I’m hoping they will fatten up a little bit more. I haven’t scoped the trichs yet but if I had to guess based on pistils I’d say they have about 2 weeks to go still.

The last 2 weeks are always tuff eh. Hurry up hurry up. But they never ever seem to listen hahaha

It’s a fact that the closer you get to harvest the space time continuum slows down to nearly a halt. :joy:

Do you hand make those or do they stretch like the elasticity one my friend lent me? I have a bunch of twine. I’d like the holes a little smaller…Need to find a hammock maker lol…lobe hour stuff bro. Big Nose Kate…drunkard loving saint lol…Is the plant about as funky as she prolly was? Can’t wait to see the doc holidays. Shit yeah

I bought them from amazon adn they weren’t cheap! They are the elastic stretchy type.

Big Nose Kates are doing great! They are going to be nice yielders.

They’re probably worth every penny. 2 is a great idea makes a lot more points for stability. Awesome

Hey Pfire…so where did you finally hang your lights at?? Did it help your issue???

Today I checked mine. Room temp 80.5 degree’s. Temp at leaf directly under the Gavita 86. Raised light 5 inches, to 32 off the tops, temp went back down to 81. I had the center plant under the light showing me twisted leaf growth…thinking not from heat at 86(maybe) but from light intensity. Started them off at 400 watts, the next week, 600, and 4 days ago cranked to 750 watts. I DID NOT raise the light, they are in 1st week of Flower, so they grew up to the light. My Gavita is strong…30-32 inches when she is in 750 or 825 watt mode. 18 for 400 watts, 24 or so for 600 .

I have no personal experience with LED’s but do know they are suppose to need more headroom than HPS, even like my DE hps. I bet raising your light helped the plants…???
