The growth is really starting to take off on them. Plenty of internode spacing. Past experience has shown this will all fill in. We anticipating some weight soon, so this week we began roping up the branches to support them. These plants want to grow very bushy and tall. They could have used tomato cages to keep them under control.
In week 4 we flipped the nutrients to bloom. (Only two weeks of veg nutrients. Weeks 2 & 3)
Now 100% germination is always a fantastic start to any grow :)
Thank you for putting you faith in our genetics :)
Good luck mate we will be watching with interest :)

@Trailblazers_Farm, No problem what so ever. Things are looking in great shape and I see we now have flowers starting ;)
Let the real fun begin :)
Thanks for the diary update my friend :)
Things look great:)

@Trailblazers_Farm, This is the right approach my friend :)
We are dealing with living natural elements and yes we do take every precaution to stop runts/mutants occurring :) but this is mother nature and she can not be beaten :)
Love the approach mate :)

How soon after sprouting do you usually begin to introduce nutrient and at what PPM is your very first feeding... or is that strain specific based on experience?
@Trailblazers_Farm, I agree :)
Medium dependant most plants after 7-10 days will start craving feed so best to introduce slowly as to not shock or burn those roots :). You can always ad more but it's hard to take it back :)
If your using say a super soil or soil with added ammendments like I use then only water is required with top dressing as and when needed to supply the soil with the nutrients the plants need :)
Your doing fine good sir!
All the best

@DinafemSeeds, Agreed. It's strain specific, but we're looking at the size of the plants. Usually after 10 days they're strong enough to take nutrients. The enriched soil really helps. Once we feed - we see a noticeable difference.
@Dr_Sampson, this can be strain specific, medium specific and experience will help.
In general most seedlings don't need any feed for the first 10-14 days then we would advise that you start to introduce feed gradually to not shock the plant, burn the roots and stunt growth :)
Always best to not add enough than to add to much :)
Once given it can't be taken back :)
All the best

Hey man, im doing the same seeds as you and was wondering if i could get some advice? This plant is 20 days old and height is 8/9cm I am thinking to kill this as it is looking like a runt, there is no stretch at all and looks like a waste of time to keep growing any expert advice would be appreciated
