Added 1/2tsp of Geoflora Bloom to each plant. It's been raining almost daily for the whole week. Today they got to get some sunlight and finally dry out a little bit.
No nutes this week. The tallest plant was 5", while the shortest was 4" They will be getting nutes on Monday. Thursday, I will be getting in soil for the pots. Very soon, these guys will start going into the Grow Area!
All the girls got transferred to 7 gallon cloth bags this week. Added to each bag was 1/2 cup of Geoflora Veg. Added them to the drip system in the Grow Area. I transplanted in the evening, around 7 pm in order to avoid transplant shock.
Sorry for the missed week. Sinus infections are a bitch. I have upped the fertilizer to 1/2 cup of Geoflora Bloom, and upped the Epsom salt to 1/4 cup. My son, in his infinite teenage wisdom, decided to sprinkle the Epsom salt over the plants; so now they look dusted in rock salt. 😳 I'm hoping the upcoming rains will wash everyone off. I see a lot of pre-flower, so I think from here on out I will be updating these as flowering stage. I have had a few plants die from what I believe is heat stress. We had several days with temps over 100 f.
Lots of rain this week. Really didn't have to water them at all. Everyone is getting their stretch on, and really starting to fatten up. No fertilizer this week. I fertilize every other week. I did have a good run of bugs, but the BT spray took care of them. I like to spray the plants weekly, while leaving the sunflowers alone. Once the sunflowers become infested, I spray them too. This seems to be working pretty well. I created a new template to track the height of everyone. It's been nice being able to make quick work of the measurements and pictures.
These Bruce Banners have done really well. They had a big stretch this week.
Another gorgeous week, and so much more fattening. I didn't add epsom salt this week, I think they may have too much. It was added into the water tank along with the pH down when it filled. I may see about adding some on the next feeding.
