Mephisto Genetics Hi ... and the shortest grow journal ever -- Sour Bubbly

[Beach_Town_Brit]

Hi everyone.
I've been lurking here for far too long and it seemed like high time I posted something!
I've been growing in a 2x4 tent for a few years, moved to pure autos on a perpetual schedule just over a year ago.

Sour Bubbly is my first Mephisto grow and to be frank I've got no idea why I'd ever grow anything else from here on out

Here's my grow "journal" in a pic:

Nice!! I love the sour bubbly, the pheno's with dominant hubbabubba in it are absolute fire.

Thanks CoolBunny. I don't know the different phenos, but mine had a wonderful spicy juicy fruit aroma in late flower. Buds have been in jars for a week now and the smell got a lot earthier but popping the buds open gives off that same fruity smell.

How did you LST them in the fabric pots? That's what I use but I don't know what to use to tie them down...

Hi Rican, I do my main journal on GWE and sort of learned/developed my approach there.
Have you seen Green75 on here? He's a real master grower and I learned a ton from him. He's on Lucky75's YouTube channel, check out some of their videos on manifolding autos.

My basic approach is to top at the third node and strip the 1st node at about day 14. Then throughout veg I spread those four main stems out to the edges of the pot. People use a variety of stuff to hold the plants down ... little staples/hoops made of gardening wire seems to be the favorite, some people even use tent pegs, I used some bamboo skewers with soft wire wrapped around them to make a peg:

Once the plants get into their stretch, they go into pepper cages and I use softwire to train them for the remainder of their lifecycle.

When I was using fabric pots, i used those black stationary clips you can buy at staples.. I've seen people use paper clips as well..

Will try those clips , take some from work lol
Paper clips- just clip a branch right onto the paper clip and poke it through the fabric I assume?

Haha, that's where I've gotten many supplies as well .. basically you slide the paper clip onto the fabric pot(like you would a piece of paper), have a little loop end sticking up for the tie and just go from there..

Thats how I have my plants lst'd with some paper clips zipties and also the pipe cleaner things. Works like a charm.
