Dear diary,
Week 7 has brought us closer to flower. Despite some variations in their development, they continue to progress steadily.
🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
⏰ Day 46:
Provided a feeding session with a nutrient strength of 1.64ms and a pH level of 5.7. After tying down the tops yesterday, the plants exhibited upward growth again.
To maintain uniformity, I re-tied down G.C #2, allowing the other plants to catch up in length.
⏰ Day 47:
During the evening feeding session, I administered a feeding with a nutrient strength of 1.67ms and adjusted the pH to 5.6.
This also is the day that marks the final topping session, bringing the total number of tops to 16 for each plant. The plants have responded well to the previous training, and I'm eager to observe their continued growth with the mainlining technique.
⏰ Day 48:
I provided the plants with a feeding containing a nutrient strength of 1.67ms and a pH level of 5.7.
⏰ Day 49:
During the evening feeding session, I maintained a nutrient strength of 1.67ms and adjusted the pH to 5.6.
Additionally, I removed another set of fan leaves to optimize light distribution among the tops.
⏰ Day 50:
The plants received a feeding with a nutrient solution at a strength of 1.64ms and a pH level of 5.8
⏰ Day 51:
During the evening feeding session I provided the plants with a nutrient solution at a strength of 1.64ms and adjusted the pH to 5.8.
⏰ Day 52:
Administered a feeding with a nutrient solution at a strength of 1.64ms and adjusted the pH to 5.8.
To ensure optimal light exposure for all the tops, I removed the last set of old fan leaves and did some more low-stress training on G.C #2 and minor adjustments on #3 to align their heights more closely with the other plants in the tent.
@DBQush, I guessed so, I'm using the same.
It's a good base for planning your own schedule.
Doing a bit of experiment and was wondering maybe adding my other ir/fr to the veg tent to see if I can get some stretching action going on..
Will be monitoring your diary closely, keep up the good work!
@Yebis42, I am basing it on the DLI per week that DeBacco University recommends in his video about DLI in relation to yields.
But it seems to match up with the same numbers that for example “Photone” recommends, as I also use their iOS app for the readings.
But ofc I just use these as a guideline and try and look at how the girls respond to each gradual increase as those numbers are if everything else is perfect.
I actually just backed down the lights again to 290ppfd as I was seeing some other issues and by lowering the light it should give them a easier time recovering.
Hey man, congrats for the harvest! I'm growing this strain too, week 4 flowering done. In my opinion is slower than I though, and I saw also your flowering stage was 9+ weeks (breeder says: 7 weeks flowering)
@DeepWaterGrower, thanks man! Yeah when they say 7 weeks, I don’t think they take the first “transition” week into account, and then call it done as soon as the harvest window opens.
But at least for me it make sense to push them for another week or two too get as much good shit as possible!
Either way I’m super happy the end result as this badboy really kicks your ass when smoking haha
@gaby_kicks, haha a 7/10 on my 2nd grow I will consider a compliment, so thanks man!
I do personally think the Wedding cheesecakes in the same grow turned out a bit bitter, but even with the Gorilla Cookies, super frosty and consistently dense buds in both the top and bottom off the canopy, leaves me quite happy.
Also helps that she netted just shy of 160g dry and smokes like a beauty!
Maybe one day you will start a diary here and show “how it’s done”, but until then, keep on keeping on haha
