S05: Cali Crasher by Doctor's Choice

Holy frickin' crap! My jaw dropped when I opened up both tents! It seems that the plants doubled if not tripled in size over the last 10 days! I mean, just by looking at the hydro plants, if this change in size doesn't make you want to try a hydro setup then I don't know what will! The plants are huge, the fan leaves are monstrous! It looks like the CO2 played a big part in it, the biggest leaves are bigger than my palm, and they're beautiful! 6 plants in hydro drank around 45-50 litres of water, they almost emptied both reservoirs which I didn't expect. In the time that I was away, some side branches got so thick that they started to "consume" the bendy plastic things that I've put on them to make them bend sideways! Hopefully I'll be able to remove all of them without making any additional damage. Aaand that's the end of good news. The plants in fabric pots didn't have that much luck (?), because the irrigation system kept them alive but it did not work as expected and this is probably due to the residue from the organic fertilizers. I'm still trying to figure out what happened here exactly but I'll probably won't be able to know for sure, but from what I can see, there was a leakage while I was away. I'll try to revive and bring the plants up to a healthier state! I also need to defoliate HEAVILY because the amount of foliage is bonkers! Let's see what I can do! XOXO Cremo
