D21 - Start of week three of veg for the second girl, while it is only the start of week two for the first girl as I had to replant her. I will probably do the first topping on the second girl this week but I'll see in a few days where she's at. I gave both girls around one liter of water @ pH 5.9. A bit on the low side as I used too much pH down but it'll be fine for one watering.
D24 - Yesterday I switched my light from the seedlings program to the veg program, and I'm now reading around 500-600 PPFD across the canopy. On the high end for sure, so let's see how the girls handle it.
However, the daytime temp in the tent jumped up to around 30 degrees C after I switched the lights. #tinytentproblems
I also added some support to #1 as she has a relatively thin stem but large leaves, so the oscillating fan keeps knocking her around. The second girl also initially had a slender stem, so I guess it is their genetics. (#1 is 12 cm tall and 15 cm wide, while #2 is 20 cm tall and 35 cm wide.)
I will need to top the second girl this week as she grows a lot each day. I'm considering mainlining her but haven't made up my mind yet.
I gave both girls around one liter of water @ pH 6.5.
D25 - A couple of days ago, switching the lights to the veg program made the cover crop explode and turn into a jungle.
I decided to trim down the red clover to increase the airflow around the girls and reduce water use.
I watered the girls only yesterday, but they were already thirsty again, so I think that the clover was drinking quite a bit as well.
After cutting back the clover, I gave each girl around 1.2-liters of water @ pH 6.5.
D27- Today was the last day in week three of veg for the second girl and the last day in week two for the first girl. I really should have topped the second girl already, so that will need to be done as soon as possible. She is 26 cm tall and 38 cm wide, while the first girl is 13 cm tall and 27 cm wide.
Yesterday, I removed the support from the first girl as her stem had gotten more robust, so it was no longer necessary.
Today, I started brewing compost tea (worm castings, neem meal, kelp meal, biochar, rock dust, algal limestone, bentonite, and molasses) which I will leave overnight and feed to the girls tomorrow.
@love_2_grow, Iβve got a cbd vienti uno elite from canuk goong right now , itβs a whopping 20 percent CBD with one percent thc I think. Iβll follow this and we can see how cbd plants attitudes are, first time I try growing a all cbd strain π€
@Coopmc, The Blumat tensiometers are great as they allow me to constantly monitor the moisture level in the soil. Ideally, I would also use a Blumat system but as I can't afford any water leakage I'm stuck with hand watering for now.
Iβll post the cbd plant in my next journal entry, and I find your write up on ganja to Be detailed ,unique and interesting (will hope to learn much from you) peace and have a excellent day/weekββ
