Week 3 start.
I'm starting big bud and bud XL.
I will be changing the base to ta/GH novamax bloom and later I will try the final part.
I've never used the general hydro nutes so it's time to learn some more. The pk addition confuses me but I have found big bud and overdrive the best so far. But I want to try more as there are many systems . It used to be just canna a&b and pk13/14 . I think I'm well embroiled in the marketing bullshit!
I am trying to use less but there is the fear of them not turning out as well.
I would love to try soil but it seems a totally different ball game.
I'll stick to Coco for now.
Day 20
======
Coming on well and every time I clear a few leaves she puts double back. Tomorrow I'm going to give her a final defoliation and prune off some that is lower on the plant and so air circulation is improved. I will only remove leaves that are blocking bud sites. Other than that I am going to leave her alone.
Day 21
===================
At the end of week three and I couldn't be happier. I have grown this strain multiple times and every time is a pleasure. She clones excellent and is my all time/all round favourite strain. Skywalker cookies a close second. Mmm cross them together. That would be amazing. Strawberry jedi biscuit lol.
Well I was going to give her a defoliation and prune but on inspection and readjusting of the plant ties it seems I don't need to do much. She opened up beautifully with a level or slightly domed canopy. I look forward to week 4 and a sea of fresh white pistils. She usually has large button shaped early buds with thick white pistils emerging in week 4 and then conical by end of week 5. She usually is done at about 60-65 days.
Looking at her today shows me that come harvest she is going to be special.
3 out of four in my veg tent including this one have very large leathery fan leaves. I was wondering what causes it? I had suspected too much light but one is ok.
Probably just the genetics. Everything looks fine in the diary.
In your photos it might look like they are getting to much nitrogen but hard to tell. Keep and eye on it, excess N causes darker then normal leaves and then they get glossy and point down at the tips. Water with 10% runoff to prevent build up.
Good Luck!
If you look at my strawberry kush mainline diary, week six if not linked, you will see a normal bud and some that seem to have divided in two. There is a lot of buds at the canopy but 6 out of the 8 mainlined tops are like this. I'm baffled. No new untried nutrients. Known strain
Wow buddy!! super nice buds
What an amazing grow so far - good job and well done 🤝
Happy Growing & cant wait for your upcoming weeks 🌱
