Week 5 Flower
Small adjustments with the nutrients this week. Molasses is being added now she's showing frost, and also because I finally remembered to buy some! Sugars feed the microbes which in turn feed the plant carbs and amino acids. This boosts nutrient uptake, health and trichome production. Cal-Mag was stopped by day 35 to ensure a proper flush by the end of her cycle. Even though she'll be going for around 10 weeks, I don't like to feed Cal-Mag any further than this so I can guarantee a clean burn.
She's going on a super stretch and still not stopping, but she's heavily stacked with bud sites. Hopefully she doesn't get too tall, but if she does then at least it'll all be full of flowers! I've been plucking big fan leaves to try and slow her down. She's looking very happy and healthy, slowly growing her flowers and still shooting up with more bud sites. I tied a couple of strings around her biggest cola's to the top ceiling poles in the tent for support when they put the weight on, and also to move them away from the light now they're getting too close for comfort.
Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺
Looks great. Mine stretched from 13 to 48 and kept going so I bent over the meristem about 4” down. Yours will be huge unless I just have an odd pheno.
@TheFoxFarmer, some of it could be my light positioning. I had them set at 48” for a 36” tall plant when I put the 13” plant in flower. So I may have induced some light stretching. I don’t know but like you’ve said “she got big”.
@TheFoxFarmer,how long will you stay in veg ? Mine are still small, i think i have minimum 3more weeks and then i'll switch them in flowering .. But i'm pretty sure yours will be bigger all the way... :)
@TheBudWhisperer, yeah coco drains well and if you're using fabric pots and have good air movement around the pots then that can also dry them quicker. It can be an advantage if you don't mind putting the work in, cuz they're fed more often and can be flushed more frequently during flush 💦✌️🦊
@TheFoxFarmer, k just double checking. My coco is draining like crazy and I’m gonna be watering a ton (like every couple days) so just making sure the frequency isn’t completely outta whack. Cheers dude!👊
@Michka, they're actually 3 fingered, but the middle finger is far bigger than the other two. It's because she's growing so fast she hasn't got time to produce huge fans! ✌️🦊
Cheers @Ganjagrandaddy 👊 sometimes that's just how it goes but at least you will have gained some knowledge and experience for your next run with her! Best of luck man 💪✌️🦊
@biggreens420, she was taken to 10 weeks mate as the garden need to carry on ticking! But she ripened well and couldn't really go for much longer as she was falling all over the place! Haha. Been slow on the updates as I've been working long hours but I'll be uploading more as soon as possible. Cheers Big G ✌️👊🦊
What a great grow and diary bro, congrats!!! Very good commentary and final harvest review as well! It’s unbelievable how one 315w CMH can grow those colas! Hope you win some prizes with this. Well deserved!! 😃🙌💪
My girl has stayed relatively short so far, which is surprising because the leaves are certainly a higher sativa pheno. I assume some of this is owed to its training, but she didn’t even seem to stretch drastically after I flipped her a few weeks back. Interesting to see how she will turn out! Congrats on your harvest my man!
@Magnetous_tryko, honestly mate I'm blown away at how well she performed under my tiny CMH! 💪 she's a beast! Best of luck to you man, and I hope you can deal with her insane continuous stretch! Haha. Cheers mate! 👊🦊
A couple weeks in to growing Hulkberry. This is my first time growing and just as I was starting to feel confident on this sophomore attempt I give your diaries a peek and am instantly humbled 😂
