Week # Four!
The week of bounce back...
Spicy bitch likes to be defoliated!π She started growing back her leaves a few days later and by the end of the week... BAM!!! Lots of bush!π I did remove a leaf here and there throughout the week... the ones that were covering the bud sites. In the pics, there are a few satellites arms that I'm still not sure if I will remove or not... they could end up being tight little nugs.π I'll decide soon since they're taking energy to grow.
SB didn't drink as much this week, but I expected that since there is some shock... She had about 6L of water, which 3L had blackstrap molasses in it for the 2nd feeding... I like to give the soil a boost of sugar... apparently, the microbes like it.π The reason for using blackstrap and not regular table molasses... blackstrap has a higher nutrient count, I believe. It also helps the plant grow bigger buds by enriching the soil and improving the grow environment. The soil breaks the sugar down to carbs which feed beneficial microbes in the soil. The microbes then produce CO2, that is used by your plants to grow larger. πͺ
I'm really impressed with the size of her stalk... quite thick compared to her cousins sex buds... and we're only 4 weeks in! The breeder package says 9-10 weeks, so if this is what it's like after 4.... Yeah Baby!!!π
Her white hats are really forming nicely. At first I thought her stacking stretch might have been to far apart, but now I think they are going to be nice solid colas... at least six will... 2 seems to be undersized.π²
Spicy also started producing trichomes... in return, her dankness kicked it up a knotch... can't really identify it yet, but it's strong! π Hope the carbon filter doesn't fail. π
Guess that's it... blackstrap molasses and dank smell! Great week! π
