Twenty20 The Spice

Another solid week, the stretch phase has pretty much stopped and I’m getting some early bud development. It’s definitely showing some signs of hunger, the lowest growth has been yellowing and falling off and the tops are lighter than they should be. I’ve upped the build a bloom, and added it to 2/3 waterings. I also whipped up a compost tea with some local compost, a handful of build a flower, a scoop of cowoco castings, some craft blend, a pinch of the rootwise biophos, and molasses. I’m going to go out and pick up a bottle of big bloom tomorrow I think so I have something a little more immediately available than the top dress. I had this happen with one of the plants last round so I think I just need to start adding some nitrogen in early stretch. It’s not the end of the world though, she’s still plenty healthy. The only leaves that have died were ones that should’ve been lollipopped off anyway. I’m like the structure of this plant, the node spacing is a bit tighter than the other plant in the tent and I have a feeling the buds are really going to swell. I can tell this one is going to have a higher leaf to bud bud ratio but I’m hoping it’s not too bad. I added a dehumidifier to the tent to keep the humidity down now that it’s starting to develop some buds and it’s also just been humid here lately. I dialed the lights back just a bit too while I work out the feeding so I’m not pushing them quite as hard. I think the an infinity fan is really helping keep the temps and humidity in check, it’s noticeably better than the cheap online fan I had in there before. Really looking forward to seeing some more bud development this week!
