Hello Growmies,
It's been a week since we last discussed our G.M.O. cultivars, and what a week it's been! We're now in week 8, and the differences between our phenotypes are as clear as day. Pheno #1 has pushed forth with its compact structure, almost defiant in its robustness. Its resilience is not just a testament to its genetics but to the steadfast environment we've curated for it.
Pheno #2, on the other hand, has embraced the SCROG method with open arms, sprawling out in an impressive display of trained growth. This approach has led to an even canopy, ensuring optimal light distribution and setting the stage for an abundant flowering phase.
This week, our feeding strategy has remained on point, mirroring the precision we've honed over time. This consistent approach has proven to be the backbone of our garden's success, and the G.M.O. cultivars are no exception. Their luscious green foliage is evidence of their contentment and our efforts.
As we peer into the canopy, the divergence in growth patterns is striking. Pheno #1's leaves cluster closely, promising a bounty within a compact space. Pheno #2's stretch towards the lights, a dance choreographed by the gentle guidance of our SCROG technique, promises a different but equally rewarding kind of abundance.
The approach of the flowering phase brings with it a sense of anticipation. The strength and elegance displayed by our two phenotypes are commendable, each in their own unique way. They remind us that in cultivation, as in life, diversity is not just beauty—it's strength.
Looking at the photos, the stark contrast in their structures is remarkable. Pheno #1's main stem is thick and sturdy, a testament to its strength, while Pheno #2's sprawling canopy is a marvel of our careful training. The hints of yellowing in some lower leaves are not of concern at this stage; they are but the natural progression of the plant's lifecycle as it redirects energy to the burgeoning flower sites.
It’s exciting to see how these two will continue to develop, each according to the path we’ve laid out for them. They may be different, but in those differences lies the magic of cultivation.
Stay lifted,
Salokin
@Natrona, thank you my dear, just thought it would be a good example to showcase. Some of the other strains even had to be supercropped due to their stretching.
@morganfreeman420, thank you 🙏 growmie, I like the second pheno, the tall one better, it has an amazingly weird scent to it and haven’t seen bud formations like that before either :)
