Pre-Flower and stretching for week 6. LST and defoliation lightly this week and next, will need to verify light height daily (35-40cm per mfg). So impressed how #1 is doing considering how she looked in week prior to transplant. Color is much improved on new growth. If my attempts at LST were successful there should be many main branches. Will consider setting up the ScrOG to spread out the branches and even out the canopy in a few days. ***Plan for the week: 1. LST/Defoliate as needed. 2. Monitor light height daily. 3. Watch for flower and switch to flower nutrients? 4. Consider setting up ScrOG net. 29-11-2023 (Day 36) - Fertigation PH 5.83, EC 1200, 2L with good run-off. Removed around 10-15 leaves on each plus two side branches off of the first branch on #2 and adjusted LST on one branch. So many branches and leaves, may need 1-2 more sessions of 10-15 leaf removal. Light height verified at 40cm. Dehumidifer set to 45% from 50%. 30-11-2023 (Day 37) - Fertigation PH 5.85, EC 1230, 2/3L with good run-off. Increase in dehumidier setting likely required increase volume or are they thirsty? Removed around 15-20 leaves on each and adjusted an LST support. Will need at least one defoliation session to open them up. The branching is amazing on both plants, with what appears to be several main colas per plant, main stem is about the size of my thumb (fattened up over the last week!), color good on new growth, light height at 40 cm. Debating on setting up the ScrOG to better spread out the canopy, thinking one more defolation session tomorrow then couple days to recover and begin ScrOG. 1-12-2023 (Day 38) - Fertigation PH 5.94, EC 1240, 2/3L with good run-off, can back off on volumes. Light height checked now at 38cm. Small amount of leaves removed from both and lots of leaf tucking; I could defoliate more, but I worry about stressing the plants as I have put them enough already. Will let them grow a for a couple of days and consider ScrOG. 2-12-2023 (Day 39) - Fertigation PH 5.91, EC 1280, 2/3L with good run-off. Small amount of leaves and 3 secondary branches to imrove airflow. ScrOG added and will start training once the branches grow into the netting, started on #2 with one branch. Light height adjusted to 38cm. Small dehumidifer added before the ScrOG netting as it is hard to move stuff once the net is in place, will turn on as needed. Flowering noted on #2, #1 should not be far behind. Plan to use flash clean once stretch is over and move to flower schedule soon. 3-12-2023 (Day 40) - Fertigation PH 6.01, EC 1250, 2/3L with good run-off. Removed 4-6 secondary branches and a few leaves. Turned on small dehumidifer in tent to help keep the tent warmer during lights out. 4-12-2023 (Day 41) - Fertigation PH 5.84, EC 1240, 2/3L with good run-off. Removed 4 secondary branches and leaves not getting light, loads of leaf tucking. Light height raised slight to 37cm. Dehumidifer in tent helped to keep the night temps at ~ 22.1C, will continue to closely monitor. Turned off dehumidifer, outside temps better. 5-12-2024 (Day 42) - Fertigation PH 5.84, EC 1340, 2/3L with good run-off. Removed 3 secondary branches and few leaves, leaf tucking continues...Light raised to 40cm. What week, tons of new growth, color looks good. They are thirsty, may need to increase volumes. ScrOG is helping to continue to open them up. 6cm height growth since the start of the week. #2 is 31 cm and #1 is not far behind. Continue to monitor light height, leaf tucking, light defoliation, and smell to add carbon filter. Anticipate switch to flowering nutrient schedule next week.

When should I switch to Terra Aquatic's FinalPart? Recommended 2-3 weeks per manufacturer. These are Strawberry Gorillas grown in Coco at the beginning of week 10. Appreciate the feedback!

It looks to be a PK booster of sorts. 0-6-5 with some added Mg and S. I would not say this is even required. All these items are in grow/bloom/micro. It has no N so its just starving the plant out and will make it change colours. In the future i would not buy this again, just use the normal feed at reduced rates. Cheeper does same thing. Granted you have it now, so just follow the TA feeding guide. https://www.terraaquatica.com/specific-fertilisers-nutritional-supplements/finalpart/ 10 days in soilless, 10-20 days in soil with a EC of 2.0, seems like a lot to me. But thats what they suggest. Could always try one plant with it and one without and see what you like more. Given em both a proper cure. Good Luck!

@NamasteDave, you're doing a great job no doubt! Growing with coco can do wonders to your plants, Look for as much information about growing with coco that's my best device 😉✌️🏽 Also If I were you I might consider some more light, 300/400w LEDs will be perfect in a 2x4 tent. Following up!✌️🏽🌱

@1_Plant_Wonder, Thank you for your kind words, very much appreciated. As a new grower it is somewhat difficult to know if I am doing things"OK". The plants appear healthy and the smells are nice, the Ladies have been patient with me. Getting closer to the finish line! Thanks again!

@1_Plant_Wonder, Thanks! Pleasure to grow these ladies, they produced very well and I learned a ton. The scissor hash and keif I captured during wet trimming was good, looking forward to the cure...

@Qutro, Thank you. They took to the LST really well and I can see the benefits of this training technique. This is only my second grow, so lots of learning!

Good luck with with your grow my friend! Good job for a second grow! Great strain choice 🤩 I see you currected the calmag deficiency by adding some... The supplement you need the most ic coco is calmag, I start mine with 0.5-0.6 ml of calmag and stay there through the entire grow, I also saturate my coco/perlite mix with the fertilizer solution before I put the seed in it, (making sure there's run off and keep my calmag at 0.6 ml) Anyway plants seems to snap out of it! Good luck 🤞🏽🍀 Following!

@BudBoutique, Thanks for the support. Jiffy Pellets are in the photos and could be the jiffers you are referencing. Happy to get some seeds to germinate, it seems to be my biggest hurdle.
