The plants grew at a super pace again this week. At first I was worried because I continued to top the plants until the first week of flowering, but it didn't bother them. So much new green mass has grown. Wonderful to see how the sativa genes can bring the plants to this enormous growth performance indoor. ๐ต
The plants are starting to make flowers and to spread their scent. ๐
Limited defoliation of some of the lower leaves. ๐ฝ
The pheno SSHZ#2 is a bit of a slower grower, that's why I lifted the pots a bit with wooden beams and put an upturned plastic water dish underneath.
@Oyziphar, must be some specific terpene to attract them. Good to know. ๐คจ
For the solution, I had never better results, than introducing beneficial nematodes. They get rid of any pest in a day.
It's a great show to watch.
@Majinstatic, Yeah, It's been a while since I've had this problem. ๐ But the smell of Amnesia Haze apparently attracts them from afar. ๐ต The strain is known for it. ๐ I removed the affected leaves. ๐ They are still in their early stages, and are not yet spinning webs. ๐I don't spray poison - certainly not at the end of flowering - so I hope by removing the leaves in the following weeks, the infestation can be controlled. ๐ Thank you for your sympathy, my friend ๐๐
@Qutro, Thx my friend. Today I took the last photo's of the plants (in a few days I'll add them to this diary). Tomorrow I'll start harvesting the plants (after 74 days cloning and growing; and 81 days of flowering). They could go another week, but the new clones are coming. And suprise... surprise.... clones from the Liberty Haze clone are coming !!! Yessss.... What a coincidence that you mention the Liberty Haze clones, cause I just started the new diary with the Liberty Haze here on Growdiaries.
Tiene muy buena pinta, cuantas semanas crees que le falta a eso? Tengo alguna Haze 12/12 desde semilla y muestran 2 fenotipos diferentes, puedes pasarte si tienes tiempo.
Bendiciones ๐!!!
@420DeepGrow, THX . I did two grows in the greenhouse this summer/autums, both 10 weeks (same clones - 2 previous diaries). But indoor it looks they'll need longer. Especially the SSHZ#5
