Everyone was up-potted 2 days ago and showing a little new growth since then. They're all very healthy looking, one has some slight yellowing which should disappear soon with our change but all plants are extremely small for their size.. we've been letting these dry out completely between watering so I'm convinced there's a genetic component to this. We've had a few other strains start extra slow for us in the past and one in particular that started slow and then took off like wildfire around week 5 so I'm not too concerned ..they're each using 3gal square (plastic) pots willed with fresh Promix-HP..they're getting a little bit of Big Bloom with smaller amounts of Grow Big with every other watering now and this has corrected the odd hue we noticed around wk3.. The Mars SP-3000 is about 2.5 away, it sounds far but despite the distance, node spacing is always really tight in that tent all through veg
We're hoping for some explosive growth this week now that everyone is officially settled, we're still on the fence as to how we'll train these but odds are we'll do our typical 4 way LST after topping and keep under their skirts bare..
..there no telling how long we'll veg these as size is always our determining factor but when the time comes, we plan to flower in this tent as well.. not too much else to report, its been an effortless week.. thanks as always for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!!

We've gotten some fast growth in the last few days.. we figured they were just late to the party.. we topped all plants at the 3rd node yesterday and we'll eventually pull each plant 4 ways..apparently the "weird hue" is genetic, they all have a unique purple undertones..neat strain for sure.. we dropped the SP-3000 a few inches and they're praying to it almost around the clock..we're debating on building a 4x2 PVC scrog table for these girls if we find the time.. thanks for dropping by Growmies! Much love!โค๏ธ

@Kitties_and_Colas, from the switch to 12/12 to the chop was 69 days I had lost 1 of the 3 to hermie but the other two did alright #1 126 grams #2 146g of clean trimmed dry bud I don't weigh any of the ๐ฉ just the prime cuts ๐
BEST wishes on germination and thru harvest . GrowMie๐ฏ๐ฏ๐๐..friend maybe pick out higher heat tolerant strands for your summer grows.. Enjoy best wishes on this run
I think if you stop watering several days it will be OK, just try to delay a bit your 12/12
Sometimes first week are slow, and to finish it's the biggest.
Good luck sister ๐ฉโ๐พ๐
Morning Jam!! ๐๐บ I really hope so lol! We see other grows of this strain go up to 12weeks ๐.. We have about 2lbs drying to hold the family down so for once we're in no real rush lol โค๏ธ
Glad u caught it at right time.. C'mon babies drink..drink ๐.. They'll be fine. So close to end too.. Best wishes on these harvest ah coming๐๐๐๐๐๐
Thanks Jam lol..my heart sank when i saw them..I thought one was a total loss.. we removed the worse leaves and now we're on hermi watch for a bit but i think they'll be just fine..work has been crazy the last 2 weeks, not much time for anything else
Omg these lights have made such a difference..I wish we had made the switch a little sooner but live and learn..I'm forever a MarsHydro advocateโค๏ธ๐ฑ
