Hi Growmies
I hope we have all had good growth and healthy green ladies the last week.
These Biscotti Ladies are responding really well to the L.s.t training the last week. I have managed to get most of the growing tips into a good light position for the upcoming flowering cycle and they are really close to the same canopy height. Keeping them lateral with the pegs but with a slight upturn of roughly 10Β° , still makes each tip think it is the main stem and the plant will apply an equal focus of stored resources . I would normally be relying on the pre-flowering stretch period to spread the limbs further apart for spacing and ensuring they get as much light as they can but as we are using the new Plagron flowering booster "Power Buds" and the bloom base nutrient from the next feed , I don't think that the elongation and doubling in size ( a general rate) will be the focus of the switch to 12-12 lighting. Normally the plant takes roughly 10 days to slow down or halt their boosted stretch which happens within the plants internal chemical processing cells that kick-start this spurt , due to adding the additional nutes/stimulant , this time period should be replaced with building their flowering sites and setting up for holding weight. I expect that we will see flowers well within the usual 10 days stretch period which we would not normally see until about week 3 of flowering. An interesting time ahead. Sadly the app won't allow video uploads now for some reason ( what next hrowdiaries admin ?) Be well.
Super work! π And learning also! I'm little bit afraid of training because it will be the first time but when I see your ladies I'm gonna give it a try tomorrow also with mine. Start with some easy LST will be the level π Compliments for your knowledge π Have a good and lightfullπ grow week! π
@Siesjuh55,Thank you and welcome aboard. Always happy to help if I can and love this hobby too so do not be silent if you want to ask anything g or comment. all welcome and how we grow as a community. π
@Golden,Thanks for the nice upbeat comment Golden. I am impressed with the lower fan leaves already. some very wide , mean and green light factories. Have. Great day.
@Nofeckingclue79,My pleasure. I had similar in the dwc I tried too. I tried a couple of different ways of air but found the larger flat ones gave the best agitation at the surface and not just big bubbles popping. nothing we do at present can imitate the perfection of waterfalls on creating great water for life. keep up the great work and diary.
