Lighting LowRyder #2 under my new LED Mars ll

Dont worry you will get some more growth on top. I think its a good thing because you may end up with cola arms. I have had autos do this a lot.
3 gal is good, more root more fruit!

Cool thanks! Since I have such a small space I was hoping to just have some single cola plants but I will have to see how this goes. I will have to experiment with my yield, I need to see if growing 1 or 2 larger plants is more yield than 5 or 6 single cola plants... Once that male has impregnated the females he will be thrown out so the ladies will have some more room to branch out!
 
Hello, just wanted to share some pics of the plants while I had them out of the space to do some undergrowth defoliation and to harvest nut sacks off the male.

Day 35

Day 35

Things are going ok, as I suspected the plants are out growing the space. I think the next time I grow this strain Im going to use 1 gal buckets, it looks like the 3 gallon would rock in a larger space. I will have a bit more room when Im sure the females are pollinated and I can remove the male.

All three females are cresting at the bud sites and the male has big clusters of balls coming in. I switched back to full strength nutrients except for the plant in the far left corner and the male, they are both getting 1/2 strength.

It will be nice to have some bud to sample and a ton of seeds for future use!

Hey thanks man, I have the light about 18 inches above the plants.
 
mine didn't get as lush as your did with growth but I was 2ft above I'm gonna drop it down and see if I can get some results like you! you are going to have a load of buds..:woohoo:
 
I hope so!! I'm wondering if I should do some defoliation though I'm worried that I will have a lot of popcorn due to the thick canopy
 
I think most people would recommend not defoliating autos. Much less time to recover. You can try tucking them under flowering sites.
