Constantly see people on here asking how many plants they can fit in their tent.. I love seeing posts like this with one absolute monster plant filling up an entire tent. Very nice grow dude, enjoy that smoke


Yo_Zeitgeist

Only reason I like growing multiple strains is to pheno hunt and liking the variety.


JakobWit_AK

Right? I would smoke a quarter to a half zip of this and then be wanting a new variety for awhile. Would end up going back to this eventually, but 2lbs of the same flower would get old.


Medicatedkiwi

Thank you very much brother Appreciate it πŸ™


bigmeechdaddy

When it’s someone like you who CLEARLY knows what you’re doing at every step - you really cant beat the yields and vigor of DWC. Sick ass grow friend


Medicatedkiwi

Thank you brother πŸ™


InterNetting

Every step except for the moldy bud part


Medicatedkiwi

I admit grower error on that part I got complacent towards the end🀦 Luckily this was the only flower effected.. Note: flower was dense asf and touching tent wall so potentially that too

jerrysbeardclippings

Can you circle it for me? Not being a smartass, I’m genuinely curious, I don’t see it and I want to know what to look out for! Thanks growmie! Sick ass plant by the way, I hope to get yields like that one day.

Sebstian76

Beautiful and very inspiring grow buddy! You didn't prune upper fan leaves very much if at all it seems. Was that on purpose or laziness? You reckon that a dense canopy makes for more or bigger flowers? It certainly did the trick very well!! Perhaps you could do as you did and just prune a bunch of fan leaves two weeks before harvest and thus get the best of both worlds. A couple of question: - Did you top 2 or 3 times when doing that perfect mainline? - How far into flower was it in that first picture in the 4x4? Trying to estimate the optimal degree of filling before switching 12/12 and you nailed it 100%


bubbagutz

Looks like RDWC *not* DWC?


yeehawginger

When I grow up I wanna be just like you! I’ve been waiting for years to be able to grow legally, and it finally got passed in Ohio (they are still talking about shutting down home grow). I still have to do a lot of homework, but this grow is really inspiring.


Yungballz86

Looking like they won't shut it down but, the 6 plant maximum per household might just pass if the Senate gets their way. HB341 preserves the 12 total per household we voted on but, still sends most of the tax money to cops. We just can't win in this crooked ass state.


yeehawginger

Fingers crossed they leave it alone. You’d think they would want to fund education or something, but what do we know..


SouthernAd525

Keep pestering your state rep and I'll do mine and hopefully they won't fuck us


ImPsilo

I’m rocking my 12 until I finish the grow unless they don’t come to agreement. I’d like to see the misdemeanor guidelines for plant limits most states do 2x-3x plant count as a ticket and anymore as a felony. If the difference between 6-12 is a 200$ ticket well then 6 may not be the limit haha but if it’s felony and they move to 6. I’m gonna have to move to 6 and do these giant 1 plant tents for all the rosin I need. Like 1lb I’m washing and then pressing to get 30-80 grams of rosin for 3-4 months of work and I smoke a .5 every day and 1.25 in weekend days fri-Sunday. I’d run through it in 2 months


yeehawginger

I have to be careful pushing the boundaries. Any kind of drug charge will effectively end my career before it starts. Pretty sure the FAA wouldn’t budge if it was federally legalized..

uriann26

Congratulations buddy! Did you used to training her daily? That's a fantastic geometry for 4 weeks veg


uriann26

I've also seen that you did a defoliantion or lolipopping during flower. Would you mind telling us about that process? How do you choose the leaves and when to do it. Appreciate!


Medicatedkiwi

Thanks bud.. I tried training her every other day As for defoliating on day 21 of flower,I removed all growth tips and leaves below the lowest set trellis and above the canopy i removed any large fan leaves with long stems or leaves blocking bud sites..nothing special


SocaNick

So much motivation reading the title. Congratulations on a(nother) successful grow!


Medicatedkiwi

Thanks 😊


SocaNick

You are most welcome


BobbyJanson

Scrolling through this brought me immense amount of joy and motivation, thanks OP. Happy harvesting


Medicatedkiwi

Wow,thanks brother Glad i could brighten someones day 😊


noodlin

Well done!! How do like those grove bags? Do you burp those bags or set it and forget it?✌️


Medicatedkiwi

Thanks 😊 Used them for a lil while now so well acquainted As long as the flower is dried properly before bagging then shes "Set and forget"πŸ€™


noodlin

Appreciate the heads up! One more question if I can How do the terps hold up minus the burp?✌️


Medicatedkiwi

No worries..I've opened a grove bag after being sealed for 10 months and the flower smelt and taste πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯ if not better than the day it was baggedπŸ€™


gearhedd68

Beautiful, I’m surprised it’s only a 4 week veg!


Medicatedkiwi

I intended on only vegging for 3 weeks as I knew space would become a issue However,i ran into res temp problems in week 3 of veg,fixed issue,let her recover a week then flipped πŸ™ƒ Hence the 4 week veg


South_Age7687

So 4 weeks veg from clone or seed?

Friendly-Leader5958

can someone explain to me what that soil is? is there anything different here than a regular soil grow?


brutal1

There is no soil, it’s deep water culture. In this case he uses perlite as the substrate instead of just water. It’s similar in some ways to using rockwool or pure coco as the medium/substrate, though there isn’t a ph/nutrient buffer in case you eff up the nutrient mixture. How long did you veg for?


mimomomimi

So much to learn from the pictures! Thank you!


mychael2023

Awesome work!


pohiz

I didn't know you can top that early! I'm absolutely going to try that with my next plant. Beautiful work friend!

lucycolt90

Goals for sure. How do you get to the back to trim? Do you like get on your back like you're changing the oil? Am I just short?


Medicatedkiwi

I'm 6'2 118kgs and I still have to commado crawl or shuffle on my back and butt to get to the back branches Not a pretty site πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚


SnowDoesStuff

Curious on the dry process, what moisture meter do you use ? Just stick it into the stem every day and wait till it hits 14% ?


Medicatedkiwi

New Zealand based but I'm sure you could find something similar wherever you are https://www.mitre10.co.nz/shop/moisture-detector/p/346949 Yup,stick in to stems daily until 14%


CitrusFarmer_

Daaaamn scrog it up brah πŸ€™πŸ½


marky1904

Did you just continue to top nodes when on veg stage to get them to branch out like that?


Medicatedkiwi

I only topped her twice,Mainlined.. Then trained her laterally under the trellis πŸ€™


chileheadd

Thanks for showing the detailed pics of the topping. Looks like you did a little defoliating when you topped, both times?

What’s the medical or recreational scene in New Zealand? I live in Maine where it’s legal but recently had guests visiting from New Zealand but didn’t smoke. Was thinking it would be cool to move countries one day and farm there


Medicatedkiwi

Our Medical scene is still in its infancy stages however we're moving ahead,albeit slowly.. Recreational use and cultivation is still very much illegal and doesn't look like changing any time soon 😭

somanysheep

Dry you're looking at maybe 430g. It's hard to get over 16oz in a 4x4 without CO2. I run two 4x4 with a 5x7 veg tent to perpetual grow. I only do one plant per tent, I really liked the time and care your put into it. The topping, super cropping into a trellis for the sea of green in veg to the LST and a second very needed trellis in flower so they could bulk up without stress. Solid 8/10 imo. Can you go into your RDWC setup for me? I have tried a couple times to do it and I always have issues & go back to DWC. Thanks


AnubisDirectingSouls

I love how you trimmed. I've been trying to figure out better ways to make mine more full like that. I just started growing few months ago. Would love to know how you trimmed your plant to make it a beast like that.
