2/2:
-Continued LST on both plants as necessary.
-Minor defoliation of some under-nodes of Plant 1.
-Both plants watered with 10mL/gal Grow Big, 4mL/gal CalMag and ~3tbsp Big Bloom.
2/5:
-While doing some LST on both plants, BOTH of the main colas had snapped around 75% off. I of course attempted to offer them support for healing. Overnight, Plant 2's seemingly became worse, so I removed the top cola and planted it in a separate planter with rooting hormone, hopefully that can salvage that part of the plant. Plant 1's support is *SEEMINGLY* doing okay, hopefully it will heal up...
2/6:
-Both plants watered with 6.0pH water with a small dose of CalMag added (2.5mL/gallon).
-The supports of both plants holding up their main colas has failed, probably because I didn't support them well.
-I completely removed these snapped colas to help the plant stop diverting so much energy to healing these wounds and instead focus on growth elsewhere.
-I am attempting to root these cola's in a separate pot I'm using for another grow. It was beyond disappointing to lose these colas, considering I am a noob to growing and DO NOT want to super-crop or anything of that nature. Hopefully they'll root with the Great White I put on to them and create small plants.
2/7:
-Both plants watered with 6.0 pH solution with a small dose (~4mL/gal) of both Grow Big and Tiger Bloom (to help induce flowering), 4mL/gal of CalMag and some Big Bloom.
2/8:
-Both plants are making a decent recovery after losing their main colas. Plant 2 is seemingly healing better than Plant 1.
-I've also continued to defoliate Plant 1 to allow the to penetrate lower.
-Both plants are beginning to rapidly grow in height, I've heard this happens during preflower and it has been helpful with watering, especially because Plant 1 has been so bushy.
Looking strong happy and healthy. Keep up the amazing progress. If you have a moment please stop by and leave a vote on my YOU DECIDE diary. Good luck stay safe happy growing cheers!!!!
