Week 7 Flower
With this week being her last week of nutrient feedings before flush, I've reduced the overall strength and stopped feeding bud explosion as she doesn't need such high amounts anymore. Nature's candy and molasses are still being added at the same amounts, for optimum nutrient uptake and to also carry on feeding the microbes. They also help with trichome production and increase flavour/aroma.
Her buds just keep on growing and growing and she's forever getting taller and taller, to the point where her tallest cola's are extremely close to growing taller than the light! Only an inch or two to go and she'll surpass the reflector! Although this doesn't bother me in the slightest, because every inch below that, all the way down to the net is nothing but flowers! She doesn't smell too strong at the moment, especially with other strains in the tent giving off different scents, but she's unbelievably huge. She has arm length cola's filled with buds. The fattest parts of a few of her cola's are almost coke can width! She's not going to stop putting on weight and swelling just yet, so I've tied a few more branches up similar to how the yoyo style strings to keep them from flopping all over the Surf Purps. A couple of branches at the back corner are getting pounded by the fan; their flowers aren't showing any damage but there's a few wind burn marks on some fan leaves. Of course this isn't ideal, but I'm unable to move the fan at the moment with another plant being in the way, and there's also no better position in the tent for it currently. It's not doing much damage so I'm not too worried at the moment.
Next week she starts flush! 🚽💦
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 😂
