Day 39: Growth is really picking up and calyx are popping out between nodes. Some pistils are starting to appear so officially in pre-flower while vegging like crazy.
She is super stocky and bushy but I do not want to defoliate this plant too much as an experiment to see how she grows. I have two fans blowing on both sides to be safe with the crowded leaves. I do not want to shock or stunt it like I feel like I have done for previous grows.
Waiting for a bit of a stretch before I can LST all the bud sites and spread it out a bit for a level canopy.
Added 2 teaspoons of grow dots to the top and a small amount of worm casings to cover that up so it absorbs nicely into the soil. Amended a 2ml of CalMag to stay ahead of any deficiency.
Day 42: Stretch has started and the nodes are starting to come away from the main stem. I wired some of them gently to move them away and guide them to the direction I want, away from the center and towards the perimeter of the pot. Auto pots are great because the holes are already there to use the soft wire.
Grow is going well so far!
Was able to really get LST dialed in with all branches in the right place. Defoliated more leaves than I was expecting but it is so compact that it was necessary.
Last week I added 2tsp of grow dots and this week put a handful of build a soil veg/flower mix as an amendment.
After two more waters I may do a very small flush with some refresh but if the plant is happy I may just continue on with it the way it is, I believe the soil is in a happy state right now.
So short still, lol.
I guess this plant is going to stay 10 inches so I started to defoliate some of the lower inner bud sites that aren’t getting a lot of light penetration.
Day 52: Used a double dose of Recharge as I do not plan on using it every other week as with my soil and runoff looking so healthy I only water so there is very little runoff.
Day 53: Defoliated a lot of inner leaves and the lowest nodes either bunched up too close or getting very little light
Definitely one short girl, possibly stunted during early veg but we will see how she turns out
D60: bud sites are starting to fatten up pretty nicely and sugar leaves are covered in frost with some of the fan leaves developing a layer of trichomes.
I have used Recharge on Day 52 and just been using plain PHd tap water until D60. I will be doing one more normal watering without nutrient and then may add a small layer of build-a-soil top dress.
Day 62, starting to see some slight discoloration in some of the older large fan leaves. I’m worried they are either burning or it is just a natural fade and I should let her ride
I will be traveling on Monday for the week so wanted to make sure to do anything that needs doing
I don't see the fade you're seeing... and you're only in the third week of flower so you have a long time left to go with this grow. If what you're seeing gets worse, come back with another question - but at this point, I see nothing wrong.
Good luck!
Was away for a week so I set up a cheap ass auto watering machine from Amazon to turn on and pump for 5 minutes every 3 days. Ended up working perfectly.
Face starting to come in older Dan leaves and bud is looking frosty, fattening but not too smelly.
I have never seen all these white strands when looking at the trichomes so I was just wondering if this could be any time of mold of fungus? It doesn’t seem like it when looking at it but I have never had buds this dense and close together so just wanted to be safe.
The main top cola looks pretty done with a few amber trichomes. Id like the rest of the plant to be good though, does the rest of these macro shots from the lower nugs look good enough? I want almost all clear with a few ambers so not too couch locked.
