Growth rates are accelerating. Two of the plants became top heavy and needed extra support. By the end of the week, we repotted all of them into 5 gal pots and started feeding them nutrients for the first time. The 14th plant never sprouted so we finally gave up on it.
The 1k light wasn't providing enough effective coverage after the repotting. So I went ahead and swapped out the light for the 2k watt LED. I put the light a little on the high side, providing a little more distance between the plant and the light source. As the plants mature, I'll decrease the distance between the two.
Gloria (Gorilla Glue) - she's looking really good and healthy, as is the Big Bud Auto. One of the premiums and one of the unknowns, are both showing signs of trouble. Well, just slow development, not necessarily trouble. The unknown has an elongated cotyledon and is still working it's 3rd set of leaves. The premium has a deformed leaf set, but seems to be growing passed it, it's fourth set of leaves appear normal, smaller but normal. All of the other plants are well into their 5th set of leaves.
All I can say is wow. I wonder what happened here with your big bud. I did one earlier this year. it was a monster. I used about 430w on it and got 9 oz dry. I am in coco. If you do another one and think of it. Could you tag me in please. I am just starting another one now. Should be about a week before I start a journal here. My goal will be for at least 10 oz this round. The BB was only the 3rd plant I had ever grew. I am thinking maybe you just got a bad seed. I am going to try a scrog top this time. I also started using the an bud ignitor. My bud sites have about doubled in size on the 2 plants I have used it on. Once I get my journal for my BB going. I will tag you in. It looks like you are doing a great job growing 👍
@justright, On this grow, we were just growing seeds, so the flowers did not have a lot of vegetation, but the BBA did produce a lot of seed... Which was promising for me on a different level... Meaning: I grew BBA earlier this year and was disappointed by the yield... As that first plant started to finish, I realized the yield problem was me.... I had super cropped an "auto-flowering" plant... Which screwed up the density of the flower.... affecting the yield...
On this grow, the BB really did great, it's just that the flowers were full of seeds (as they should) - leaving not as much meat on the bone.... so to speak... I was real happy overall...
I have a couple of CBD runs to make, but I am certain I'll back around to BBA at some point - I can certainly tag you then... 👍
@MSNL_Seeds,
Thank you...After having a couple plants hermaphrodite and one grow accidentally got seeded. I figured it was about time to intentionally create some seeds 😀
