Thanks for the kind words. I hope you are successfully in your grow:thumbsup:
The sllestack x skunk is a rather short and somewhat bushy plant. I do believe they would be a nice plant if I did not have the Kandy kush hogging all of the light.

How many weeks into flowering will most plants stretch? I have always grown a unknown strain that really never stretched at all. They seem to be slowing down quit bait.

[redtails]

Yeah, I've usually seen them stop by 3 weeks into flower at the latest, usually within a week after you notice buds starting to form they are mostly done stretching for me.

[Rubberbubbler]

Thanks. They seem to be coming to a stop.

Wow, that sure is quite a bit of stretch! You going to prune the bottoms at all?

[Rubberbubbler]

I did not plane on pruning the bottoms. The leaves at the bottom have not had much light for about a month but they all are doing good. I have never had such big plants should I prune? Will it effect my yield?

when your plants get too tight and not enough air can circulate through them...but they are looking really nice....in the first week of bloom i use bushmaster to control the "stretch"...also increases yield....one application is all it takes:jointsmile:

i hate when mine gets too tight because then the lower buds don't get that big and they pull energy from the plant keeping your tops from really swelling up....and in harvest it is a pain trimming the little tiny stuff....keep it up though you'll find the formula that works for you:thumbsup:

great lookin grow!:smokin:

Thanks Friend. The next batch will be better next grow using clones. I have a free sample of bush masters from the hydro store I will give it a shot next grow. I also have free samples of gravity and purple maxx. Has anybody ever used these products? I use fox farm solubles so I don't even think I could use them.

there is something on the label about using it in hydrponic application that isn't good....gravity is one of those products with mixed reviews..some luv it and i have heard of it messing crops up...read the directions on the Bushmaster....it says more is not better....i would start with about 2ml/gal and see how it does if they are continuing to stretch more than you like you can do a 2nd app within the first 2 weeks but once you find dosage that you like it only takes 1 application applyed within the first 2 weeks of flower...i like my plants vegged to size i like and i hit them with it on day 1 :thumbsup:

i use 3ml/gal of BM :jointsmile:
