howdy bipeds.
D43.
seems like she started the stretch.
could be vegetative, could be flowering.
switched to flowering light schedule.
EXCITING.
will have to remove any potential side branches.
keeping an eye on the lowest ones.
STILL NO PISTILS (hairs).
but see calyxes forming.
purchased yellow sticky trap.
seems to work well.
D45.
we stretchin baby.
started light flower nutes.
reduced N-nutes slightly.
still no hairs.
nodes are growing close to each other.
smelling GREEN.
D49.
strechin a bit more.
hopefully not too elongated.
spotted a few pistils.
HOOVES CROSSED.

anybody ever try delaying flowering outdoors?
need to delay 2-3 weeks (she starts her 5th week now).
current plan: desklamp to extend daylight by 2H (+-15H total).
summer soltice has long passed.
daylight will soon shorten to 13H.
💩💤
ladies and gentlemen.
please tell me if I should switch to flowering now or continue to veg for a week?
no signs of pistils yet, although alternating nodes.
I dont need a 2m plant, more around 1 meter max.
would love to hear your opinions, any advice is welcome.
namaste.
🙏
The mainlining is well done.
Give it another week to get one more node on each shoots, the plant will have a few more flowers without getting oversized.
been BUGging me for a while.
switch to flower next week.
now and then spot a white fly or two.
found aphids on just one leaf, annihilated them.
question: should I get neem and spray her before the stretch as a prevention? open to alternatives.
!! i do not measure pH this grow
pyrethrine-base concentrate would probably be a better option for an ongoing issue. also some sticky traps.
anything that develops from larvea in the medium can be controlled wtih "BTi" -- common brand is mosquito dunks or mosquito bits. the latter is a top-dress application.
neem is fine. it needs to be applied every 7-14 days to be effective, so if oyu do apply it before flower, it's not lasting the entire time.
very limited options in flower if you care about your lungs and overall health.
some of the the lowest growth shoots started to stretch outwards (some stayed short).ideally I would prefer one nice long bud.should I remove them? (maybe 2 or 3 in total)or better to wait until 21 days flowering.
probably should not defoliate for another week right?
thanks!
a lot of that depends on the intended size of the plant etc etc.. your familiarity with your enviornment as far as how deep you get good weed into canopy..
outdoors, i would not trim much off. unlike indoor, the lower buds can easily be swimmign in 2000 umol/s of PAR. It's not teh same context as indoors where just 12-24" into canopy can be an extremely reduced umol/s intensity of PAR. (Photosynthetically active radiation = PAR - lol or close enough, it's off the top of my head)
So, for an outdoor plant, trainign and spreading it out is the best way to go.
when budsites form, if you see sparse amounts of pistils on some lower growth tips, you can change your mind at that time... but these will only be the heavily shielded areas of plant.
leaves power growth and buds... only remove what you must and have a good reason to do so. same with growth tips.. outside most will be useful.
how did I do with defolitation?
i think it should be okay but juuust checkin.
also, how many nodes do you usually leave per mainline branch?
for branches non alternating (interesting), left 4-5 paired nodes
for tight alternating branches left 8-10 or so
Its outdoors maybe you over did it ;)))
Light of sun is most powerful, so she can penitrate way deeper than any light indoors.
Same will be with cola lenght, small lolipoping is smart, for better air movement and stuff, but you dont need to trim high.
I would be taking inside of canopy ( or to center of it ) looking leaves, all outside looking i would leave.
Now its too late.
She will drink a bit less , so lift pot, dont get yourself to overwatering.
Good luck !
