It's already the fifth week of my Tropicana Cookies grow, and I'm excited to share the progress with you. All plants are doing well, and they are now in the pre-flowering stage on day 30.
This week, I have done some defoliation to all plants to help promote better airflow and light penetration. I removed some of the larger leaves that were blocking the lower bud sites from receiving sufficient light. The plants are looking much tidier and healthier now.
In terms of nutrition, I continued to feed the plants with a light fertilizer solution, and they seem to be responding well to it. I also adjusted the pH level of the nutrient solution to ensure optimal absorption by the plants.
I have been monitoring the temperature and humidity levels in the grow room closely, and they are within the ideal range for cannabis growth. To maintain the proper environment, I've been using a combination of a dehumidifier and small fans to circulate the air.
Overall, I'm happy with the progress this week, and I'm excited to see the plants enter the flowering stage soon. I'll continue to provide the best care and attention to ensure a bountiful harvest.
Hi very nice shape to these plants. Thanks for sharing. Genuine question, since I am new to autoflowers: is the yellowing of the larger fan leaves just an illusion from the photographs, or is this just because 2 weeks into flower and they are almost finished? Or maybe they have too much nitrogen too far past veg? I hope it is the second reason. Gotta love Fast Buds, they really can't be beat for autos.
@Isle_of_Weed, thank you. I was curious because FB PL is in position #2 of my "need to grow now" list, ever since Sour_D showed me his. Keep up the good work, always nice to see your diary entries!
@@resimax, when the plant starts to flower they require more nutrients especially P / K.
What you are seeing is a sign the plant needed more nutrients than available and took from the leaves. I did give them some bloom nutrients to help them out on the last feed. However I won’t overdo it as purple lemonade does not require much (as per the breeder recommendation)
