Thanks for the comments guys!

After posting the pics yesterday I starting the Low Stress Training, so thought I would update with a pic of what I have done, and how the plant has reacted.

It has already adjusted to it's new positioning, and is turning to the light, and I will be bringing it round the edge of the bucket until it meets itself again....at least that's the plan!

I have another pic which is a drawing of how I intend to perform the LST. I don't actually know where the drawing came from, but all credit to whoever drew it!

Any tips or comments are more than welcome!

Ok, it's been a while, but I didn't realise how long it would take for the plant to grow round the bucket rim. Plus my flowering closet is still in use (12 weeks and counting).

But I have some pics, although it is hard to make out how it is working because it is so damn bushy. I toyed with the idea of trimming some of the fan leaves, but decided against it as it may slow growth.

1st pic is the lid of the bucket, I have put 8 brass self tapping hooks through the plastic, equally spaced around the rim. This gives somewhere to cable tie the plant to. And means the plant and lid can be removed as one piece.

The next two pics are showing how the plant is reacting to the training, as I said it's difficult to make out what is happening, but it is going well! Still a good few weeks left yet though, before she goes into flower.

Been a few weeks since I last post. The plant is doing really well and I have just put it in flower. Instead of doing a ScrOG, I am going to keep tying the branches down to the hooks on the bucket lid each time a branch gets too long.

I pulled a total of 5 1/4 onces off the last grow (which was my first ever grow) under a 250w HPS, which I am very pleased with. I am aiming for 8 ounces from this grow (a bit optimistic maybe, but why not set high targets) which will be nearly a gram per watt. The second pic below shows about half of the yield. It appears to be (or so the guy who supplied the seed thinks after trying some) a cross between psychosis and chemdog double D (chemdog D x sour diesel) not psychosis and donk as I first thought.

Any comments or suggestions are more than welcome.

Been a few weeks again, but I haven't forgotten. Just no point updating until something is really worth mentioning.

Well, she has been in flower for about 2 1/2 weeks and is starting to take shape nicely. The flowers are coming through nicely as you can see from the pics. Her overall height has been controlled a lot better than my last grow, and the but sites are quite similar in height. I am hoping for an even bigger yield this time (although I will not be able to get through half of my previous yield before this is ready, will just have to store some long term).

The pics were taken yesterday, let me know what yo'all think!

Sorry it's been a while again. Quick update, all seems to be going well at the moment, plants height is well under control thanks to the LST. Had an issue a week or two ago, where a few of the leaves around the flowers started going brown and crispy. I put it down to high temps (especially in the nute solution), so I started putting ice in, and everything started running smooth again.

Pic was taken on the 4th of this month and she is about 6 weeks into 12/12 out of about 10/11 weeks. As you can see, she is coming on nicely.

Don't be shy, give me some feedback!

Peace.

Things have gone from bad to worse! Due to high nute temps I have been encountering root rot. This in turn means lots of crap floating around the nute solution, which is clogging up my submersible air pumps, which create heat when they are clogged, heating the nute solution further, creating more root rot and more pump clogging etc etc. Vicious circle.

The plant is starting to look really shit now, and I have no way of keeping the nutes cool enough other than ice in a plastic bottle (which melts and warms up in no time at all). The leaves are mostly yellow or brown and crispy, so I may just have to cut short and harvest 3 weeks early.

Can't believe this grow is so fucked up after the success of my first grow. Damn hot British summer, normally we get rain and more rain!

Pics to follow soon, just for a laugh!

Quick update. The plant is looking a little worse for wear, but might just make it to the end.

It looks like a reasonable yield, although not as good as my last effort.

Well, we are nearing completion. She has been on pure water (pH 5.8) for a few days now, and it will be time to harvest in a few days. The buds really are soooo hard, much more than my last grow. I will post pics etc. when I start the harvest. Still struggling with heat and root problems, but it has basically made it to the end and I hope to achieve maybe 6 oz of it. Last time I changed the solution it was as warm as a jacuzzi bath!

As I say, pics to follow.... very nice pics they will be too!

Here is a harvest pic as promised, not a bad haul. After a bit of testing I can confirm that it is outstanding, can't talk type of stoned (unless you want to talk gobbledygook)

The beer bottle is a half litre (500ml) bottle for scale. There is a lot more smaller buds that arent in the picture. After drying it weighs in at around 6 ounces total.

It's now been put in to cure, mmmmm! Can't wait!
