D22- start of week 4, will leave plant alone until next feed to grow vertically. Training is minimal over the next few days.
D23-pistils are showing officially. I love seeing them. I'm holding back so much and literally not doing anything to the plant until day 25. I swapped out some crystals and added new ones to the soil and the room, hoping to see some great things when I check in again.
D25- fed this morning same mixture with 1/8tsp/gal tiger bloom. Weekend growth was great, leaves became very bushy and I just trained leaves away best I can. Going to leave the plant alone for a day or 2, let growth take over again. I was not anticipating the amount of bushy-ness and looking back I might've LST'd differently. Regardless, I'm working with what I got. Looking to flush when dry with water only next, maintaining light distance from 17"-20" above canopy. Happy to see pistils popping up, going to keep my momentum going and keep making sure the plant is happy and healthy.
D27- FLUSH. Even bushier than yesterday, this plant got roughly 40oz of fresh water to push it to utilize everything it's got before next nute feed. I am mainly letting it grow taller so I can get the branches trained over, but the rate the leafs are growing I may need to defoliate at some point soon. Trying to avoid that, so LST will continue to be the primary way of getting light to bud sites. Stem is healthy though, glad to see the resilience through all the manipulations. Excited to enter week 5, this has been a great grow week for this plant. Hoping to see incredible growth very soon, as we are approaching the flowering stage quick!
D28- Week 4 is finishing up and all I will update is that the plant will be in another week of veg. Will feed 1/8 or less strength bloom nutes next as planned, but will not back off on grow big just yet. I'm getting very amped up for the next weeks until harvest.
Has anyone noticed a true difference in yields/health with an addition of a silica compound to the soil medium? Unsure if I want to try it on this grow, but am open to comments/recommendations.
Basically it sets your plant up to help increase overall harvest. Make sure to use a micro with it. And add bit at a time if making s mix as some nutes might gel together if used in excess.
Hey again π
Thanks so much for growing so many of our genetics, will be excited to see them all flourish π
Let us know if you need any assistance, weβre more than happy to help.
Happy Growing !!! π±βοΈ
@fast_buds_jessie, thanks for the comments! I'm looking forward to really tracking them during grow and having an awesome crop! I have a few other fast buds strains that I'm eager to grow too, once this harvest runs its course. Thanks again for the comment and helping hands. Stay tuned!
