Thanks Canna, gives me something to expect as far as visually. 5-6 months....Long time, I am only 2.5 months.

Rusty, looking to chomp this back to a few main branches and just pray. VGI not seeming to work more than a week per dose if at all.

Malus, looks like they updated the website, but yes, that is the company, the GN Thai.

Okay, more to report this time. Looks like the VGI has kicked in and no more fast stretching, tho it still is purty danged bushy. I think I have identified 3 main topping branches and may.....still pondering this.... cut off all the rest.

I have a few pictures of how the tops look, wispy is about the best way I can think to describe it. Water consumption is running 2.5 L per day with ambient relative humidity of 80%, temps 60-70's thru a 24 hour time span. Again I need to apologize for my crappy photos, need a decent, easy to use, free program to edit and fix my cheap camera's deficits.

Without further ado....May I present a top or two at 1 month of flowering....or so.

Hey WW...saw you'd added here so stopped by to see wassup...yea, wispy is how they look...LOL! This is gonna be one long trip! It DOES look like stuff is starting to happen tho...wow! nearly 3 months and it's just starting....an indica would be done by now! Speaking of...ya liking that AK or what? Have you tried anymore yet? I'm down to the tops now...always save the best for last and made the mistake of putting some oil on top this morning...I was kinda snowed in AGAIN!...WOW! make sure you make some oil out of the trimmings...very very tasty and effective! I'm soooo wasted....LOL! I don't even drink and I'm wall dancing down the hallway like a stoned cold drunk....wooohoooo...havin fun now!:stoned::stoned::stoned:

Yes my dear...I was feelin finer than frog hair. I put the oil away (FYI Sleep deprived!!! and NOTE to self...AK oil and AK tops = a sleeping pill x 3!) and took a had-no-choice nap...I'm still dazed and confused... Thankfully, I'm used to that...we mustn't H/J WW's thread, tho...it's gonna be a long one as it is! Yawn....talkin about watching the grass grow...WW's sure got more patience than I do! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Well I have a sick plant. Rusty feels it is a PH issue, I was not sure if cold had something to do with this.

So, some of the leaves are clawing, all over, not super significant yet. In discussing with Rusty, I think he is on the right track as some of the soil in the pot is over 3 months old and the buffers must be used up.

I repotted to a 20 gallon pot. Gave some water yesterday with PH adjusted much higher than normal. Want to see if that has effect today when I check.

Budding is going along nicely, the internode space is much, much shorter, still wispy on the tops, I guess that is the way it is.

Don't know how to make pics show now??????

Hopefully you'll begin to see some improvement since you transplanted into the larger container with fresh soil. (FFOF, right?) You definatelly have enough rootspace for 'em now, lol.

The plants twisted-n-tied to the screen are the Thai I have going. 3.5 weeks growth cycle, 6 weeks in flower, I believe. (5 gallon pots)
Was keeping water ph to 6.0 (before nutrients) but began yellowing until I raised the ph to the lower end of normally acceptable range. (6.3 after adding nutrients, 6.8ish when watering alone) They look much happier than before. After using the VGI, internode length shortened, but will have to see if that continues without further applications.
Hmm...previewing my post, looks like it adds all our pix to our album, and provides a link. That's going to be a real bummer if so. Especially for those of us with DSL.

Hope they start showing some progress for ya... :thumbsup:

We be one sick plant. I broke down and bought a soil pH tester. Interesting findings...well at least to me.
FF OF, in the bag pH 4.5
Soil pot, 1/2 gal 2-3 weeks pH 4.5
Pot 1 gal 3-6 weeks pH 4.7
Pot 3 gal closest to repot 5.0......closest to coming out of flower, 4-5 weeks in soil and the pH has jumped to 6.0....but it is gradual as the plant/pot combo is aging.
Thai....In old root ball pH is 6.5, in new soil part, pH is already 6 in just a week....got very wet.

So believe it or not, the pH has gone alkaline over the time frame of being in a pot.

Since I am right on the border of too wet - more in a moment - I gave just a liter of water with molasses which lowers my water pH. Gave 5 ml in that (a gallon dose in a liter). I figure it needed it's nutes anyway, been holding off. I am hoping today when I get to the garden it looks at least a little better.

Now, I got it too wet, because I am flat not used to a pot this bit....20 gal. The bottom in particular was very wet so I made a sort of French drain. Took a piece of PVC pipe and drilled a mess of 1/4" holes in it like perf pipe. Stuck that in the very bottom of the pot from one of the drain holes. Worked really well in just 24 hours, along with a fan on the soil at the top of the pot.

On the other side, this thing is flowering well, everywhere, definitely scrog is good for this. Buds sticking straight up everywhere.

Wow! That's some whacked out ph there, WW! RT is such a badass with plant probs! Good call RT! Hopefully this only delayed it a little...so it will only be a 10 month flower instead of a 9 month???....LOL! I hope it recovers quick, WW! Now back to my nap...
