10/23 - Transferred LSD and Acapulco Gold to 5 gallon pots. Healthy roots. About a 1:3 - perlite:soil mix. Watered.
10/25 - Watered all plants. Rotating them 90 degrees daily to even out light exposure.
10/26 - LSD and AG have started their 5th nodes. Will be topping soon.
10/28 - found some tiny gnats crawling around in the dirt. Probably from an old open bag of dirt I used to top off the pots. It was about time for their first Azamax treatment anyway, so mixed up 20 ml Azamax in 1.5 gallons water and split it between all the plants, in the soil. Hopefully will stop the problem before it gets any worse.
Anyone have any experience topping LSD or Acapulco Gold Strains? I've never grown these strains before and am curious how they respond to topping. Going to do it anyway, just looking for any insight from someone who's done it before. Thanks!
LSD being indica dominant, I would top it later than the sativa dominant Acapulco Gold, which will respond more vigorously to topping.
Also, your pH should be in the 6.2 to 6.8 range, 7.5 is way too high.
