Sigh what a week. Let’s start with Gelat.OG.
Well the morning after the last diary we had a big storm come through for a few hours that drenched the plants and even blew Gelat.OG over. It split a few branches as you can see and even had to cut about 2 complete over. Spent about 3hrs trying to tie and put her back up as right as much as I could. Surprisingly with as bad as the splits were she is still flowering on so that’s great news.
Blueberry also had some trouble from the storm but didn’t fall over and had 2 branches that also split that I was able to tape back together.
Going to have to figure out a way to hold them both up better while there flowering as the buds grow bigger and heavier especially when it rains.
Blue Dream had really no damage from the storm, however it did have a small bud rot area that I got rid off. The biggest issue it caterpillars burrowing into the big sites that I found. Had to cut off a few big nugs and kill what I could find. It still has about another 2-3 weeks to go before it’s ready to chop down and the other 2 are about 4 weeks behind that.
Lessened learned to definitely do chicken wire fence to help support the branches once they get too heavy come flowering time.
Also ran out of nutrients all but the Tiger Bloom. Really don’t want to buy anymore but with the other 2 still having some weeks to go I may have to. Definitely going to be doing a organic compost soil next grow and stay away from liquid nutrients as the cost is adding up.
