GreeneScene She did some great growing , secondary nodes began growing ASAP . Transplanted day # 12 & began LST hopefully nothing too stressful I don’t want preflower pistals to start showing as soon as my last batch did I hope to pamper her into a BIG BIG girl. Still waiting to she how she responds to me transplanting her & bending her . . Week 2 in the 📚on the GreeneScene .

GreeneScene She’s recovered well from the transplant . Growth is very vigorous in my opinion . These secondary branches are coming along well . As you can see I planted the seedling closer toward the edge of the pot rather than in the center , I’m experimenting bc I don’t like the lack of control & shape of some of the older plants canopy I have now . For the method of LST I’m using I’d like to figure out the easiest way to keep it uniform & contained within the pot before allowing vertical growth . Maybe later I’ll experiment with only LSTing the secondary branches & leaving the main trunk to grow vertically I still want to work through my current kinks now . I’ve added a drip pan beneath the pot & 2 dehumidifiers to the tent , one is an experimental dehumidifier the other is a cheap I grabbed it off Amazon. I think that’s about all for week 3 GreeneScene another one in the books 📚.

GreeneScene She’s growing like a champ . I couldn’t ask for more. I’ve began light defoliation of lower leaf sets. I also am experimenting with what I call “grooming” . I had a theory after about 5 weeks of growing my last run & decided to see if it pushed any limits . I haven’t begun training any lateral branches yet I think I’m gonna hold out until flowering is initiated or try to anyway . Only watering when dry still . No additional feedings or compost teas yet although I am considering . I think that’s all , another week on the GreeneScene in the books 📚

GreeneScene Started a liquid supplement because my dry amendments aren’ didn’t activate my last grow. Maybe I didn’t mix them deep enough or keep the top layer wet enough but i know its the end of my first run & my girls have been STARVING . So even though I did top dress a few weeks ago I still started her on liquid amendments like my oldest girls & she’s handled all the feedings brilliantly. She has pre flower pistals showing but only sparsely so we’re still vegging out. She’s a beast & that’s an understatement. Definitely the biggest & most vigorous auto I’ve ever grown. Liquid amendments I’ve been feeding are still indeed organic so no worries.

GreeneScene She is still an ABSOLUTE BEAST. Still vegging out . If she hasn’t switched herself in one more week i may have to manipulate the light schedule to force her . I just don’t know how it will affect the other autos in my tent right now 🤷‍♀️

GreeneScene Currently she’s THIRSTY . She’s drinking a gallon about every 3 or 4 days . She has some sporadic flower pistals but not enough to say she’s in flower still so another week of veg completed . I’m going to have to do some MAJOR TOPPING & DEFOLIATION on this girl before flower sets in but she is definetly my pride and joy I’m hoping for a QP from this beauty she grew 9 inches minimum this week so she’s still a beast !

GreeneScene Did a defoliation finally , looks like she could be in flowering now but that could just be bc I’m ready for her to flip over . There are noticeably more postal hairs but not enough yet for me to know for sure . I think she’s definitely getting ripped . She’s still a beast , growing like a champ. 2 waterings since last week she received plain water but I saw some leaf yellowing so I just gave her some nutrient rich water a day ago but it was a slightly different formula than she usually gets still organic however . That’s about all I’ve got to say

@UnorthadoxDude, this grow I had mixed strains running at once . I was under the impression Tropicana was an auto turns out she was a PHOTO sold as an auto thus the reason she was soo magnificently large . The mixed auto grow I did here was my very first taste of VPD issues . At the time I didn’t know what a VPD was but that caused my flowering cycle mid session to go wild . Bananas popping up on my girls , mold being spotted in the thick chunky buds , amongst a few other things . I had 2 dehumidifiers running in the tent that just couldn’t keep uo with the moisture . It didn’t help that my last house had terrible insulation so the ac never accomplished keeping the house in the 70s it was always like 82 at the hottest parts of the day so the temps in the grow tent were always 7-9 degrees hotter . VPD kicked my ass long story short while i was waiting for a PHOTO plant to naturally flower bc I expected it to be an auto
