    I was thinking of using the FIM method to top, would this be okay?
    Yes dear

    Fim,top,supercrop.
    Id wait a while though if you're going high with the screen.
    Let them grow for now just removing bottom growth as they grow

    Aim for something like this


    If you start now then you will have a lot of useless undergrowth that will all need trimming.
    Plus the plant has to work harder to get all the food up all those stems.
    So id top/fim when they have a good bit of height to them.When the top is getting near the height the screen is at.

    This is what you end up with


    I have my radiator outside the tent.
    Near the vent.The extraction pulls the warm air through.
    Works a treat.

    You're the boss Beth gonna leave em to get abit of height first then. Never topped before so I might need my hand holding on this.

    I doubt with my rad outside the tent I would get the lights off temps I need. Just got the temps spot on and don't really wanna start messing lol

    Been thinking with summer round the corner. I work 12 hour shifts so I'm not gonna be able to be swapping bottles of frozen water twice a day. Might need to invest in a chiller unit. I know theese are crazy expensive but if it does the job then it should warrant the cost and hopefuuly last for a few summer's to come. Any idea what's good? I've seen helia on fleabay they seem decent but again I'm looking 200-400 quid.

    Happy Tuesday folks

    No worries duck! I'll do a little bit of investigation then

    Res change on Wednesday went okay, ph keeps slightly drifting up to about 6.1-6.2 so I'm resetting that every day . Ec is set to 0.7 for third week of veg. Hitting it with veg nutes a+b, liquid silicone and root stim. What week do you usually stop using root stim?

    I got a really bad feeling that cookie kush is gonna die so I popped a mango seed on Wednesday too. That way if worse comes to worse I'll have one plant a couple weeks behind.

    Have you sorted your thrip problem now Beth (touch wood) lol


    you're a towel

    Hopefully got the thrips sorted dear,but the damagd is already done I fear.

    Whats up with the Ck?
    Do you think its just a bad seed ?
    Whats the roots looking like ?

    I tend to stop root stim when I go into flower

    That's a shame I hope it's not too big of a hit for you.

    Im not 100% what's wrong it's just very droopy and had to be supported by a yoyo already.
    Just doesn't seem anywhere near as strong as the incredible bulk. It is growing but at a slower rather than the IB too. Will double check roots later here's a few pics I just took.


    That's the incredible bulk

    CK in comparison they were both started at the same time and have both received same treatment throughout. Might be bad genes I guess.

    you're a towel

    Looks ok to me dear,just getting used to the enviroment maybe.
    Its a different seed and strain so you cant really compare it to the others.
    Im sure she'll come good

    Edit...Im a towel?
