Okay guys,
so here the deal. A few things happened over the last week. First, I was using the Connoisseur line of Advanced Nutrients and something felt not right (not stating that it's the nutrients fault). Second, it turned out that my air stones in the hydro setup gave up on me and made my plants drown over the whole period. I didn't know what was up with them, but the moment I bought and placed new quality air stones into the reservoirs, all the deficiencies went away in a matter of 24h which was ridiculous because I've never seen this kind of jump in vigor. I was using the BoomBoom spray from Bio Tabs over the whole period multiple times a day and i strongly believe that this made my plants survive. I'm also using my trusted Co2 bags because they made some huuuuuge leaves.
Right now, the Pink Rozay is the biggest plant in the hydro setup, very vigorous, so it's time for a snip snip (finally)! I also topped all the other plants in hydro and we're off to a new chapter in their life. I'm going to wait a week or two with the idea of topping them several times because I love to top plants, regulars or automatic ones, I don't care and it never was problem for the folks out there that don't top their automatic plants :)
Everything is working great! I've exchanged the whole reservoir with the whole Xpert Nutrients line of products because they just came in. So thanks again Xpert Nutrients for this whooping package of bad ass products! I'll use them wisely ;)
Now, let's cross our fingers for a quick recovery (which normally lasts 24-48h in hydro instead of a week) so I can top'em again.
See ya!
Hey, well done. Their looking great !!!
Curious what them white lst bender deals u use are called ? Tried looking for them but just kept seeing the other type.
Thx for sharing!!
Beat of luck !!
@Grow4Releaf, if you read my reply to @qutro below you'll see what I have in mind for a great lst bender design. Maybe I'll have some time today to design and produce it π€
@Qutro, same here :) And yeah, I do own a resin 3D printer, exactly for things like that. Next version of these benders will bend at a particular angle and I also have a design in mind for a 2 part bender that will allow to adjust the angle. The Holy grail would be a marriage of these 2 designs that allow angle and length adjustment but first I need to design and make a proof of concept of the second version of these benders :D a fun project i must say :D
@Cremo,haha, this is the most addictive hobby, isnβt it? That's why I come to check others garden even when I'm not growing.π±
Btw those benders really come in handy, do you own a 3D printer or how have you made them?
@Qutro, you're on point with it. I was just talking to someone explaining just that. I missed the toppings and defoliations sooo much π. Live to spend time in a greatly organized space!
@Wastent91, thank you very much. Pink Rosay wad the most vigorous plant in the flowering room. She produced lots of great looking buds :) beautiful plant
Psst, check out strawberry cookies from this season. There is the best shot of this season ;) (but dont tell nobody)
@Zammi_official, thank you so much, it has also the highest yield of all photoperiodic plants this grow season :) I loved to work with and on her. Great genetics ππ»ππ»ππ»
