The growth has really taken off on these four cannabis plants, about a month and a half into their lifecycle this is the point where things should start to get really interesting. Soon They will be growing through the first level of netting. Growing them this way is known as SCROG, I have been using this grow technique for the last few grows and really happy with how the netting supports all the buds.

Counting from the front left side Plant number 1 and 2 are still the biggest.. Well the most bushy, I guess number 3 is the tallest. That is the one to the right in the back row. But I think 1 and 2 have more mass to them and will catch up very quickly.
We can see almost all of them are close, just number 3 lagging behind. But it looks really healthy and if I keep vegging these for a few more weeks I hope to have an even canopy made of these four plants. Imagine a privacy screen, made of cannabis.. lol Pulling away from the tent a little we can see everything going on in there, we have the fan keeping the air moving inside. We also have a fan bringing fresh air into the tent but that is out of view. We can also see the two levels of netting. That light will be raised once the plants get taller.
I use a ratchet system to raise and lower the lights, I need a ladder to reach them though.. lol this tent is huge.
Since my tent is almost eight feet tall, I have lots of space to grow vertically. The plants are maybe 2.5 feet right now. I should be able to get them close to 4 feet tall before I start flowering them. That will leave 4 feet for them to get bigger. These plants should be taller
than me by the end of this grow... really excited to see them.
A closer look at each cannabis plant:
Number 1 is going strong, since its been topped it changed its structure and now is growing more horizontal. I may top them again before starting to flower, still a little early for their second topping though.
Plants are doing good, its been a bit hot in the tent, approaching 85F. So maybe they would be a little happier if it cooled off around here. But its been unseasonably warm, causing the tent to warm up.
The leaves are showing its balanced hybrid traits, long but fat leaves.
Number 2 looks almost identical to the first one.
It has been topped as well and producing lots of leaf sets.
Number 3 is the smallest of the bunch.
They have all been topped now, and seem to be recovering from it and growing more.
It wont be long until all four are past the first netting.
The mushroom C02 grow bag has not done much in producing C02. Maybe my tent is too big, or maybe I am not waiting long enough for all the mycelium to grow through out the bag. But so far the levels of C02 has been pretty close to baseline.
I was really hoping this would produce lots of C02, well we shall see.. It is suppose to last 6 months or so. So by the end of the grow maybe it will be kicking in.
My little C02 meter, always reading the tent levels.
With the warmer outside temperatures, they have been going through lots of water from the humidifiers, I find myself filling them up almost every day right now.
Still keeping the humidity high at this point in the grow, usually around 70% but I will bring that down as we start flowering in a month or so.
