Hello Growmies,
The seventh week of our journey with the Caramel cultivars marks another stride in their impressive development. Despite the absence of the Tent X controller, the auxiliary extraction box has created a conducive environment for growth, paralleling the successes we've observed with other strains like Bruce Banner x White Russian.
Our steadfast commitment to the feeding schedule, with a seamless transition from Alga Grow to Alga Bloom, is reflected in the rich, verdant growth of the Caramel plants. The precise administration of 2 liters of nutrients every four days has clearly paid off, with each Caramel displaying lush greenery and robust stature.
The SCROG training continues to be a triumph. The even and expansive canopy of the Caramels is a clear sign of the meticulous care in guiding their growth. The careful attention to Lollipopping and defoliation ensures that each plant receives its share of light and air, which is crucial during this stage of their development.
With the plants now entering the pre-flower stretch, the anticipation for the flowering phase is tangible. The uniformity in their growth alludes to a harmonious flowering phase and the potential for an impressive yield. The stability in their environment, supported in part by the extraction box, has undoubtedly played a role in their thriving condition.
Although there's a noticeable difference when compared to plants in the more controlled expert setup, the Caramels still boast a beauty that makes them my favorite in the standard environment. Their structure and the healthy green of their leaves are commendable.
Moving forward, we'll continue to ensure environmental consistency and nutrient optimization as we support our Caramels into the next phase. The increase in PPFD to 450-550 has been positively embraced, signaling readiness for the coming flowering stage.
Stay lifted,
Salokin
@Still_Smoq, you should check out Rezin, got recommended to me a while back and most plants are taking great to it and start producing that early frost
