Was a pretty abusive week for Penelope. She’s pulled through like a champ though. So she’s all HST’d up and set up for how I want to develop her. Now it’s three weeks of veg! She’s gonna be a brute!!
LET’S GO!!
@Papa_T, it’s moreso just the transition from a crop being grown naturally outdoor to indoor.. it’s been naturally grown in areas that “veg” for months before the flowering phase is initiated.. the indoor standard is much different from that
@Godesskat, thanks bro appreciate the words. Unfortunately she’s taken a but of a turn and not in a good way. I may have pushed some limits on PHing. I’ll be able to recover her but she’s not happy right now. It’s ok though I’m used to having at least one female mad at me.
@Wackytabacky_420, oh bro you can’t even imagine. I’m kicking myself not keeping some cuttings to keep the pheno alive. But it is what it is bro. I’m taking a slight break after this run before I start up a new run.
