Super Small G-13 DWC

Here's some new pics from day 27.

I ended up topping her, the FIM for some reason didn't do anything, weird. I must have missed it by a bit, or something, I don't know, but the topping has, the 2 secondary growths are emerging and the top of the plant is not. Here we go.

You can see in the picture of her underneath that I have been trimming up a bit, took off I think 3 sets of fan leaves and let the secondary growths keep going, the leaves were just getting too big, didn't want all that energy going to those leaves.

I am going to throw it into transition nutrients tomorrow, need to build my carbon-filter very soon.

Id wait to clip anymore fan leaves for a few reasons. Clipping will stress your plant a bit which can cause grow the slow down. Your baby is young and right now explosive growth is occuring esp with your DWC. People use the excuse that the leaves are in the way or not getting any light so I should just clip them off. Thats actually a bit wrong. You want as many leaves as you can get and keep threwout the whole grow. They are the plants energy source. If the leaf is not getting enough light or has become useless to the plant it will wilt up and fall off. Lower leaves will usually do this as they are older and as the plant grows it utulizes the upper grow more and does get rid of lower leaves. Clipping isnt a 100% nono, i do clip, but usually I wait until the leaves just yellow and i can tug really gently and they fall right off.

Also just wanted to point out. Now that you have topped your plant, the hormone that normaly causes the main stem to keep going up is rerouted into those few nodes below so you dont really need to worry about the plant wasting energy. Less stress = less hermies = GOOD.

Didnt want to do anything but give you food for thought. Iv found that you really do want to leave the large fan leaves on as they provide the juice for that perticular nodes branch. Iv clipped the fan leaves on one plant all on the right side, so only fan leaves on the left side, and the branches on the left grow much more with many more nodes and the buds were fuller and larger as well than on the right side. Tuck the leaves in behind if you feel that they are in the way. HOpe this helps.

K, sounds good to me, yeah I wasn't going to go crazy witht hte clipping, just wanted the first couple nodes to be fan leaf free. Due to the size of my box, I can only have so much in there, and when the upper nodes get larger and I have to LST them, I need some room there. I wasn't planning on taking anymore leaves off for awhile, she needs to get up there a bit. Can't wait for next week or so.

Well, she's starting to flower. As of now she is in her new transition mixture of 1 tsp. MaxiBloom and 1/2 tsp. MaxiGro and is in the dark till tomorrow at midnight-ish. I have been building my carbon filter today, just need to find a panty hose, probably going to the store tomorrow, and then about another 20 minutes of tinkering and then it should be done. Will take pics tomorrow.

I have changed the timer so that she is on from 9pm to 9am so tomorrow when she goes off I will unplug the light until the day after tomorrow sometime after 9am so that when 9pm comes around, the timer will turn the light on.

She's doing nicely, got a funk to her in one night. My carbon filter was too restricting so gotta make a new one, haven't been able to get one right so far, lol. Anyways, will take pics next time the lights are on.

Here she(hopefully, no signs of sex yet) on her second day of flowering. Smells rank and looks amazing. You can see where I topped it she has developed three tops. There's a shot of her undercarriage also, looking nice, stretching a bit, no complaints here. Really just can't wait to see sex.
