Nutrients will be changed on 10 day cycle
Started these girls from seed in early December. They had there 3rd set of leaves on Dec 20th. I started feeding nutrients on January 1st
I have just topped them for the first time. I had let them get to the 6 -7 leaves stage, cut them back 1 - 2 sets.
They are very healthy and should recover quickly.
Jan 10th
Two days after topping and both are strong no signs of stress.
Jan 11th
Nutrients changed today
Jan 13th
All is well
Jan 15th
Trimmed all lower growth below the manifold
Jan 17th
Start of week 6
Started LST, mainline is starting to form nicely
Jan 20th
Changed nutrients
Continuing LST
Jan 21st
Trimmed plants to 8 cola manifold
Kept nodes 1 & 3
Cut node 2 off and cut branches after 3rd node
Jan 22nd
LST Tied down colas to flatten out
Feb 03
Week 8
More training
Last week for veg
Feb 8th
Plants are filling out nicely
Starting to drink about 1-2 gallons a week
Trimmed some of the original fan leaves from the bottom & a few from the top also
Mar 3rd
Week 12
Plants recovering from defoliation
Nutrients changed yesterday
Mar 6th
?? Not sure what is going on with CDP # 1
I trimmed some of the Larffy shit off the bottom of colas. It is lagging behind its mate by a lot.
Hopefully now that I completely removed all the lowest branches it will start to make some buds.
CDP # 2 is doing awesome
I had to preform some LST to bend the longest colas over to to horizontal
Mar 9th
Adding approximately 1 gallon of nutrients per day
Clearly the larger plants take more
I added a heater to the tent to keep the temperature up to 26 + deg
I think the ambient sir temp was to cool without it.
The problem is with keeping the nutrients cooler than 22 deg.
I have been using frozen bottles of water to do this. Thankfully my freezer is just outside.
Mar 10th
Week 13
CDP # 2 is doing awesome
Some LST required and possibly some more defoliation this week
CDP # 1 is picking up a little bit from last week but still far behind it’s sister plant
Mar 13th
Fresh nutrients today
More defoliation
CDP # 1 is still lagging behind
CDP # 2 is healthy happy filling out nicely
It is the biggest plant in the tent
Mar 14th
Defoliated CDP # 2 big time. Took me an hour or so.
This is an experiment with defoliation for me. I want to see if this will help provide the stimulus to produce buds instead of leaves. All in an attempt to get the biggest nuggets I can.
Mar 24th
Week 15
Buds are starting to fill out getting sticky
CDP # 1 is half of the size of CDP # 2
Mar 30
Changed nutrients to straight Dense Bud Compactor
Mar 31st
Week 16
Mar 30 Changed nutrients to straight Dense Bud Compactor 1 gram / litre @ 900-1000 ppm
April 1st I will add the rest of the nutrients to the exiting solution and check on ppm level
April 1st changed nutrients from straight Dense Bud Compactor to full range all listed nutrients
Added 8 litres of fresh water + 6 litres of the existing Dense Bud solution to come up with a mix concentration of 1100 ppm
Hopefully this will be the shit!
April 7th
Week 17
Fresh nutrients today. Straight Dense Bud Compactor @ 1 gram / litre, ppm 1000
April 10th
Added full nutrients today to the existing Dense Bud Compactor solution.
Also changed to powdered Kool bloom.
April 14th
Week 18
Added fresh nutrients today. I jacked up the Dense Bud Compactor to 20 grams / 16 litres & added a full teaspoon of Koolbloom.
PPM is extremely high @ 2400 ppm so I will be watching for any signs of nutrient burn.
CDP # 1 is small compared to CDP # 2 but is loaded with beautiful flowers and covered in tricomes.
CDP # 2 is beautiful. Full of flower and coated with the good sticky shit.
April 18th
Changed nutrients today back down to normal PPM levels approximately 1200 ppm.
April 20th
Added approximately 4 litres of water to each plant to lower the ppm in advance of flushing next week
April 21st
Week 19
Reduced the ppm, dropped a couple of nutrients
Just coasting to flushing later this week
April 25th
Switched CDP # 2 to flushing today
