Horrendous week - weather terrible, barely a moment of sunshine. A little bit in the morning but otherwise grey and overcast. Surprised at how well they are doing considering the circumstances. Temperatures are good - humidity is also probably quite pleasant for them in their little makeshift greenhouse.
Have moved half outside. Seem big enough not to get eaten by birds (famous last words)
Weather should pick up next week and I'm hoping to see a nice boost.
Well, the sun has finally come out to play and good weather has been restored.
Using the heat to dry up some of that rain water - the pots were water-logged for a good 2 - 3 days - now they're finally starting to feel a lot lighter.
Same nutrient schedule.
Surprised to see the cheap seeds (all the Linda grows) are doing so well - outperforming some of the big guns here. But time will tell :)
Another tough week - still experiencing good days up to the afternoon and then torrential downpours for the evening.
Temperatures are good and plants do seem okay in general - there's been a massive shift between week 4 and 5 - They're starting to really take shape now.
Added Bio Bizz Cal Mag to nutrients
Another week, another downpour.
Mostly stable weather - but now it's climbing rapidly with temps expected to exceed the 30s this weekend. So it's a race against time at this point - and this is why it's best to plant autos late April in this zone.
I'm not sure, but I think I'm discovering the joys of cal mag this year. Never used it before - and just adding 1ml per litre - and using once a week. But is this the magic nectar that makes plants super fat? Either that or the regular sprays of Fish Mix on the leaves every evening. But I'm leaning towards the cal mag. Something is certainly different this year - yields are looking like they'll be a lot higher across the board :)
A super hot week with moderate humidity during the night.
Interesting to compare all these plants to see how much genetics plays a roll in things. All plants are treated equally, but they're not all guaranteed to come out the same - with all sorts of shapes and sizes.
This is looking like the biggest by far this year - I've always had at least one Barney's Farm in my grows for the last 3 or 4 year... I think I should maybe be growing more of them instead of some of the others.
So impressed with this that I've got another two on the go now. This is probably the record breaker this year :) I need to grow more Barney's Farm seeds in future.
@GanjaFarmer101, los tutores son cañas de bambú o tutores de plástico (los puedes comprar en cualquier tienda de jardinería) que puedes "clavar" en la tierra en la parte más exterior de la maceta para que no dañen las raíces
¿Cuál es su función?
Puedes poner un tutor de más o menos la misma altura que las ramas laterales y atarlas con alambre de jardinería (un alambre especial recubierto de plástico para no dañar tus plantas
Deberás poner un tutor en cada rama principal, es decir, de 4 a 8 tutores en función del tamaño y la estructura de la planta
¿Qué consigues con eso? Con ello consigues "engañar" a la planta haciendole creer que sus ramas son más fuertes, y los cogollos engordarán y tendrán más peso que si no pones los tutores
Busca por Google " entutorado " para más información!
Cualquier cosa me dices!
@nonick123, I wanted to experiment with some LST for the first time this year, but I've been too busy to actually do it. I also forgot to buy the LST clips on Amazon.
What exactly are tutors? You've got me curious :)
@GanjaFarmer101, impresionante tamaño y buenas ramas laterales!
A ver cómo se pone cuando empiece a florecer a tope
Igual sería interesante poner tutores a las ramas laterales para que los cogollos engorde más!
