Everything seems to be going good. I had a bit of an over watering scare. The tent started to smell like damp towels. I noticed the skunk wasn't drinking much so backed off the watering completely for a full 5 days for the pot to feel light! Think growth has been stunted but not sure. She's not showing any visible signs of suffering.
Anyway the damp smell was coming from the haze. I freaked out thinking the roots were rotting so let the pot dry out for 3 days before feeding. Again she hasn't shown any signs of stress throughout. Today the damp smell has started to change into more of a lemony fruity aroma. When you give her a shake it smells amazing!!
The buds are starting to thicken out and the tentacles are turning orange. She has a lovely silver frost forming too. Soooo much bud!! Feel like I'm on the home straight.
Few things I've learned that I'll take to the next grow from the start:
1- I haven't been letting the water stand to let it warm up to room temp. I've been watering straight from the freezing cold tap & probs shocking them.
2 - I also haven't been letting the water stand to de-chlorinate
3 - should have used bigger pots and also should have filled the pots I'm using right to the top. There's a good 2.5 inches of wasted depth
That dream is worth the wait my friend. This girl looks beautiful, I love the structure and shape you've got. I see many bud sites forming and many buds on thier way. Lovely green colour, picture of health. Good job.
@Aldo90,
I will! I just need to mentally prepare myself for the slog of backtracking through it all & uploading all the pics etc. She's looking strong & smells unreal! I think she'll finish a couple weeks before the haze too
Really nice shape developed, if possible take pictures without the purple light. Let's us see the colours of the plant better and also keeps a diary for you to look back on, our memory isn't as perfect as we like to think it is lol
Just flipped so the fun begins. I've been doing autos for years now I've been considering doing photos next. Keep on training the plant as over the next week or 2 she's going to stretch try keep it lower like you already have been doing.
@Aldo90,
Thank you so much for the input! I've just done a trim (bit heavier than planned) so will give her a couple days to recover then will start upping the nutes. Can't wait to see her explode π
Autos sound like a pain but fun! Mine has just started sprouting so will add her to the tent at the start of the next light cycle. Not sure if she'll produce anything under constant 12/12, but I might get a nice surprise π
@propakush, start upping that topmax also mate thats the flower booster but it's weak, not weak as in its shit weak as in concentration. Don't be scared to go up to 4ml per litre with that stuff now your in flower you want as much pk as possible. The plant will thank you with more flower sites as you have already topped and trained her she will explode in growth.
