The amount of growth we have seen in the last 15 days is quite impressive. They have now reached their max height for my grow tent, and based on how much more they will grow during flower its time to switch them to 12/12 light schedules now. There are no buds yet, but we should see signs of them very soon. Hopefully they will handle the stretch well since I am watering them much more. Based on using sensors in the soil I know exactly when they are getting too dry and I add more water to their pots and dishes.

Assuming the plant will grow another 2x-2.5x at three feet tall as it is right now. It could be over six feet tall by the end of flower.
I can raise the lights pretty far up in this tent. But I have to keep space between the lights and plant as well, usually around two feet.
They are growing quite nicely through their first layer of netting.
As they have been growing through the netting, I am working them into each square so they all have space to grow evenly.
Topping these plants two to three times has given them a really nice canopy.
We can see they are females, but no signs of buds just yet.
I love all the leaves.
Those trunks are getting quite thick too. Probably will double in size by end of flower.
I should probably thin out the canopy below, as not much light is getting to those bottom leaves now.
Overall its been a good grow. Plant number three is still lagging behind. So the canopy looks good besides the far back corner.
But even number three is moving past the first netting, just the others were past it over a week ago.
I think they like my new light, and hopefully with the new sensors and c02 added they are extra happy getting consistent waterings.
I do wonder if they will go purple, as the tent temperatures have been getting into the 60s. I do hope so.. its a 50/50 hybrid but maybe it has enough indica in it to give the buds a nice shade of purple.
So now we wait for buds to form, and raise the light as they get taller. I am also planning on integrating a irrigation system. As I find watering them when they are scrogged quite difficult. So using a watering system using drip lines may help me out. There is not much room when the plants get big and using a large water pale gets harder the bigger they get.
After this grow, I am hoping I am right on track with starting seeds for my next outdoor grow. But that is many months away, and since I just started flowering these it will take at least two months before I am at that point. But with the cold weather we must wait for the spring to start outdoor grows. So for now we are growing inside in a tent.
