All I am doing is letting her ride out the summer into the fall now. Pumping her full of water everyday. Too hot to let off I have to cool these girls down so I let the sprinkler rain on them and the area around them. Needs weeded again. I will probably make a 1gallon can of the flower girl as a fertilizer drench with some humic acid and some variation of a molasses source probably Tree Secret if not straight up molasses. cleared out some leaves growing into eachother plucked anything trying to grow into itself and thinned her out for airflow
absolute heavy defoliation and branch removal here at the end of the week on a nice breezy overcast day.
@NegotiatedBubble, I'm not sure what the 'on paper' true lineage is regarding the filial line of the strain. I've been doing some unconventional shaping and training which might have attributed to its unique shape. She really wants to put on big branches towards the afternoon sun as well. She gets to grow next to a pretty symmetrically shaped Blackberry Kush plant so she is certainly my ugly duck. This specific seed was on the smaller side as well so it might just be a little goofy too lol - I wish I knew more about Filial lines and traits. Thanks for coming and sharing about this lovely lady and taking an interest in the grow.
I grew the Twenty20 Afghani this year & had the same general observations. Itβs got the old world qualities I like and is pretty darn bomb proof. I harvested a bit on the early side due to back to back storms but probably could have left them in a bit longer without damage.
You definitely did a great job of stewardship with your plants congratulations π
