OK so at week 2 the girls tend to take off. Not sure if they are shocked a few days after they are in bucket. But usually in week 2 they start to recover, at least in my opinion so far. I think my humidity needs to be higher at first?? Any thoughts? I do use 2 liter bottle in beginning as well.

So she's really growing now. Started lst and defoil this week. This is my first fastbud so I'm not sure what's up but she seems to be twisting as she grows. The tops look weird to me. Any thoughts?? Happy growing everyone!😍🌱

This blackberry is recovering nicely from the twisting explosion of growth. Changed her ties and a med defoil with bucket change, but I forgot to take after pix...next time. This is my first fastbud and I'm hoping she yields well. I still never figured out why she was twisting so much, nevertheless she has calmed down quite a bit. As always any advise welcome. Happy growing😍🌱

@HydroKitty, if you get a min take a look at my six shooter it might be similar. All the new growth is twisted but she's growing better than any of the other strains getting same feed.

@HydroKitty,I had it once before when I broke the roots 🌱

@BigDaddyK, yes they are great for the age, everything else is how I would expect it to be. Idk, why but all of her new growth twists out, leaves, new colas, all of it. I'm constantly straightening out the new growth. Hopefully it's the seed, but I've never seen it on here and a lot of ppl use fb

Why does she look so scraggly?? It's like the leaves and new colas twist as they grow out. Any of you pros know what's going on? She eating and drinking fine, massive roots, I'm not sure what's going on. Even did an early bucket change just in case, but she still looks like this.

@HydroKitty, whats your humidity level? it says 45%, id say that's to low for veg.
BreakingBud
BreakingBudcommented8 years ago
@HydroKitty, maybe increase the oxygen levels

@Phedre, that seems very logical, she has calmed down now so all good......on my way over to you!

Im having the twisted growth problem on some of their strains as well but think it might be a ph swing. Looks great good luck

Is possibile that does not enaugh o2 in water. I had some problem when last summer my water temepature was over 27°C. A little bit of h2o3 (vol 3%) 1:200 solved the problem.
