Yeah i was rethinking the defoliation, soon the male with be spewing its spunk and I can get rid of him then that will leave room to reposition the plants and I can do some training with some string to get those tops right where I want them.. Thanks for the heads up, I didnt know not to defoliate the autos, I did a minor defoliation a little over a week ago and it was just the stuff on the very bottom of the plants.

Yeah I'm with torched, I wouldn't defoliate autos. I just tuck all my leaves under the bud sites and it seems to work, granted they always find their way back to the same spot they were at when I get home from work but I just tuck em back under but that's alot less stressful on them than defoliating them!
Beautiful girls Mindzeye! You got it going on "Bailers Booya"Keep up the great work
Thanks for stopping by! New update coming soon!

Did you remove the lower bud sites? I see no problem removing the lower bud sites I try to leave the large leaves when I do. Helps the mid to upper part of the plant grow better.
Hate getting lots of super small popcorn buds.

Sorry its been a while since an update.. Right now all plants are on full strength nutrients and have stopped any stretching and are flowering nicely at 24 inches tall. Since my last update the plants outgrew the space, the shorter bushier plants were not putting on much bud and I was worried about mold with no airflow between plants so I decided to defoliate the two shorter plants, the big female is untouched. The plants are getting light through the canopy now and the bushier plants had tops under the canopy that would have never seen any light so Im glad I defoliated.
The plants are packing on buds now, every day the buds are swelling. I did have to increase my calcium, magnesium, and iron by 30% in my nutrient mix, I was starting to see slight yellowing between veins so I acted fast and you cant even tell now. So as you can see my nutrients are effective and only costs me pennies per gallon. If something needs adjustment in the mix its that easy to do :tiphat:

Wow, They are looking great! :drool:
Thanks buddy! I wish I was able to grow as many plants as you have right now!
"Stirring"They are all experiments. lol. j/k
A bunch of 2x4" 10ft wooden studs can do wonders. I can do pull ups from my "tents" if you will...Cheaper, Sturdier, and Reliable. I've seen lights fall in these expensive put together tents. Not downing them. Guerrilla seems to make a good product, but you can build it for cheaper and sturdier. Thank you Jorge Cervantes! If You have the room for it - They are fun to build. I pretty much just have been following Jorge Cervantes Original DVD and his Grow Bible. Seemorebuds PDF is also a great read http://www.scribd.com/doc/36777521/Marijuana-BUDS-for-Less-See-More-Buds-HQ

But you are doing an amazing job. Keep up the awesome work!
Building it would be fun, however I would need the space to do it! Not only that Im only allowed 6 mature plants by law so I do have legal restrictions also...
