Mainline Monster Gelato+Ayahuasca Purple

Hello, everyone! Second week of heavy main-lining is in the books! Not without casualties, sadly 😢 The main-lining ✂️ : - I've tied the branches down twice this week - First time was on day 31 and I managed to snap 1 (out of 4) of the new branches of the Monster Gelato. - The broken branch didn't completely come off the plant but the damage was sizeable - Since the branch was too small to be tied back to the plant so that it can easily heal itself I decided to super glue it 😲🖌️ - The branch was secured back to the plant...but at what cost? - The second tie-down and third top was done on day 36, this time with grater care, and no plants were hurt during the process What's next 🗺️: - I'll closely follow the development of the snapped branch and will decide if I want to keep it or not - If it gets the chop, I'll consider topping its closest sibling once again. - I realise it will lead to uneven conopy and distribution of the plant's energy - I haven't done this type of topping before, so I might give it a go just to see what happens Some thoughts 🗯️: - I've definitely been harsher to plants before and haven't had a snap...maybe the branches are more brittle due to the "winter" conditions? - For future training (bending) I'll tie down the leaves first before tying down the branch, I've noticed there's a better distribution of stress this way. - Also I don't this I will use super glue ever again if I snap a branch... will need to come up with a better solution in this type of situation haha That's all for this action-packed week, see y'all in the next one! Keep growing ✌️☘️
