I germinated the seed in a wet paper towel inside a ziploc bag for 48 hours before planting it. The germinator box keeps the temp at around 26 degrees C.
Not too much to report. sHe's been growing as expected. I had to leave the plants for the weekend, and they had all been down so I gave them some support. I think the problem was over watering, which I had to do to leave them for a few days.
First step in the mainlining was performed on day 14. I topped her at node 3 and removed nodes 1 and 2. She's doing well but has a bit wrinkly leaves from the powerful LED light. It's set at 75%.
At day 19 she got upgraded to a 11 litre fabric pot. The next day at day 20 she got her second topping in preparation of the mainlining. The light intensity has been increased to 75%.
This week I've done two toppings and completed the mainlining. Topping number 2 was done at day 23, and the final topping done at day 27. She'll now mainly get defoliated and some light LST.
Unfortunately, I found balls on this plant at day 33. I found a few that I picked. I've removed the plant from the tent and put it next to a window in another end of the house. I'll keep it for some time and see what it'll do. I'll keep a close eye on ball development. I'll only hand feed it from now on, so it will not get the best treatment.
I have found no more balls yet. She's got some small new growth on some nodes that I will follow closely. She has stretched a bit and she is looking quite good. I was going to bin her but now I have changed my mind. I'll let her keep flowering in my window...
Miss Larry has been stretching a lot since I put her in the window. She's now 1 m. tall. She's stretching towards the window and I turn her around sometimes. She seems happy enough, even though she is slender, and she hasn't produced any more balls so I'll keep her in the window.
Larry is growing tall but I think she has about stopped getting much taller now. I had to put her on a lower crate since she grew past the window. She would for sure enjoy some more light, but she'll stay in the window until she is done. I'm expecting small buds, but they could still be tasty...
Miss Larry Bird is left to slowly flower in the window. I am training her with the help of the light from the window. I'm turning her to make her a bit more compact as she tries to reach the window. She gets to share the bloom juice with her fellows that were left in the tent. It's not ideal since she's a bit slower in progress than the others so we'll see how long I can get away with not mixing her own nutes...
She is doing alright, but the leaves don't look too happy. I think she wishes she had more light...Unfortunately my landlord came to talk to me today. This was the second time he wanted to have a meeting regarding my plants in a few months time...After the first meeting I can't have plants on my patio anymore, and now we decided that I need to move the plant away from the window a bit. In the last two shots I have put the plant on the floor instead of pushing it up against, and filling the whole window up. It will have to stay down there from now on.
She is now at least getting her own nute mix, and don't have to drink what I mix for the others in the tent. That should keep her a bit happier. She is progressing very slowly in the window, but I'll keep her like that.
She doesn't really start to flower. I think she gets too much light from the street lights outside. I'll cut down on the bloom boosters and just let her be to see what happens. SHe was spreading out too wide so I put some bamboo sticks in her pot and tied her up a bit.
Miss Larry Bird Kush is flowering very slowly in the guest room. The low light conditions is the cause of that. But she's turning into a large beautiful lady that spreads out very well.
This plant is getting massive. She is spreading out beautifully and builds buds all over. The bud production takes very long due to the low light conditions. I am a bit worried that the days will get too long too quickly, forcing the plant into revegetation.
Lady Larry is still stretching and now she is massive! In her pot she is as tall as I am, and I am 6'3". She is spreading out sideways and gets wider and wider. I'm worried she'll start revegging as the days are getting longer. If needed I'll have to put some blinds up to control the daytime...
This slow flowering girl has now been in flowering for 11 weeks. The lack of light makes this a very slow process. However, buds are growing everywhere. Since the light is not coming form above, she lets all her side branches hang low to create a massive growth volume. Can't wait to see her buds develop. I'm feeding her very little to keep her happy.
This big girl is surprising me with her buds. She's got buds all over and they're growing quite well. The branches are starting to get heavy and they slouch a lot. The buds are very sticky to touch so I think they'll turn out beautifully.
Larry is starting to get some proper buds, and her branches are getting heavy. She has managaed to supercrop herself due to her getting heavier. 3 out of the 8 main branches have collapsed and folded over. I removed a whole bunch of leaves.
This big mama ripens slowly. The buds are getting bigger, and they should fatten up a little bit. I don't know how many more weeks she'll need, but it'll be a few for sure. I removed a lot of foliage, and I might have to remove some more. No more branches has supercropped themselves, but I expect to see some more broken limbs as the buds are getting heavier. I can't be bothered tying her up...
Not much has happened this week other than that I have removed some fan leaves. The buds are developing super slowly. Hopefully they'll fill out a bit more. They're quite fluffy, but still very sticky to touch.
She is developing her buds super sloooooooowly in the low light room where she is in. Surprisingly, the buds are getting very frosty. Way frostier than I expected. They have now started to fatten up, and I expect them to get a little bit denser.
As the days get longer and brighter, she should speed up her flowering. Hopefully she won't start to reveg. before I harvest...
Her buds are slowly fattening up. They've still got a bit to go, and she's at least a couple of weeks away still. I'm tuning down on her feeding a bit the last few weeks.
Unfortunately she's having some mites. I've seen some webs, and I've seen feeding marks on the leaves. Don't know if I'll do anything about it this late in flowering...
The buds have thickened up a ittle bit more. Trichomes are still clear so it has a few weeks to go still. I've been removing some leaves. There are some mite around, but it's not too bad.
The branches at the back of the room start to wilt. The leaves are dying off. It has also got loads of mites. I find webbings and the little bastards eat of the leaves. I've decided to stop feeding her now and pull the plug soon. I also need the feeding system for another plant.
So, this old lady is having some issues. She is under full attack by spider mites. They ruin her leaves and make webbings on the buds. Also some of the branches are dying. The buds are turning brown.
I will prepare for some bud washing and then I'll cut her down.
This was meant to be an indoor plant to grow under my grow lights, but after she developed some male pollen sacks in vegegation I took her out of the tent, to avoid getting seeds in my other plants, and let her finish in my guest room with only a bit of natural light through the window. She has grown well considering the low light conditions. SHe has been flowering forever, and in the end the buds started to die. I think she was dying from old age...
@Ganja4Show,
Yes, those balls have to be removed unless you want seeds in the buds. Once a plant has started to hermie, it is likely to keep making pollen sacks. I have to keep checking this girl for balls until end of flowering...
@Psilocubensis, you're right. She has some issues. I'm giving her the same mute mix as my plants in the tent. She doesn't like it very much, and I'll have to adjust it a bit. She's only getting a little bit of direct sunlight in that window unfortunately.
