Outdoor Mainlining Superscrop 2021-2022

Psilo_yayo_cybe Due to premature germination and low nighttime temperatures, after the sun goes down, I brought the seedlings inside for protection. One day I couldn't bring them in, and they spent the night in the cold outside, which meant that Moby Dick CBD would get stressed from the cold and show some deformation in the true leaves. On the other hand, Red Hot Cookies is the most vigorous and hasn't shown any major problems. Lastly, Purple Punch has had issues since it germinated, as the cotyledons were a bit dry, and after that, it only produced one true leaf; however, it is still growing, just at a much slower pace. The days haven't been very sunny, so growth has been quite slow, combined with the various stresses the plants have experienced.

Psilo_yayo_cybe This week they've been able to get more sun because it's been clear. Red Hot is growing excellently, in the 3rd and 4th node of true leaves. Moby Dick is already growing faster as it recovers from the stress of the cold. Purple Punch is also still growing but at a much slower pace, as it is just starting to put out its second pair of true leaves. When they develop the 5th node, the first apical cut will be applied to start mainlining. It's likely that this will be accompanied by a transplant to the next pot, but it will depend on the root development of each plant.

Psilo_yayo_cybe This week they continued to grow according to the cloudy days that have passed. Little by little, Moby Dick CBD and Purple Punch are recovering, while Red Hot is still developing very well. The appropriate watering is being applied, and the seedlings are being staked because they are exposed to a lot of wind during the afternoon. Soon, an apical pruning will be applied to start the mainlining, and afterwards, they will be transplanted into a larger pot.

Psilo_yayo_cybe This week there was more sun and the plants were able to start growing faster. Purple Punch is still going too slow, and I'm starting to doubt that it can grow normally at any point. The other two are already growing faster and healthier, so I will probably do the first apical cut on their 5th node soon. At night, I continue to keep the plants indoors to protect them from the cold, but I plan to start leaving them outside by mid-October.

Psilo_yayo_cybe This week both Moby Dick CBD and Red Hot reached a proper development for their first main lining cut. Additionally, all the small shoots that we are not interested in developing from the lower nodes of the cut are removed, concentrating all the growth energy on the two shoots below the cut. Unfortunately, Red Hot was attacked by some chickens, so it also lost some leaves, which will surely delay its growth a bit, causing this grow to have several unforeseen issues. In any case, this will help balance the development between both plants. Purple Punch is another story, as its extremely slow growth has improved but it’s still way too slow; we could say it’s just reaching its 3rd node, although these are still very close together and somewhat deformed. Next, we will wait for the two apical shoots on each plant to grow, and then we’ll tie them down and separate them. The root development is already about to fill the entire pot, so a transplant will also be done soon.
