Disclaimer: I fill my diaries on the go and update them during the week. So if you like to get all the information and pics of innocent plants getting the herbie101 treatment, always check back on the last week to get the FULL picture (of a grower trying hard not to kill his plants). Thank you, have a wonderful week and happy growing!
Day 22: I'm very happy how the rippers are developing. They are not as big as their sweet seed sisters, but very solid for their age. They seem to be pretty happy with their new homes and seem to have settled in.
I'll not feed them any nitrogen for this week. I guess i start slowly after the topping. But they got their new pots a week ago and there should be still enough nutrients in the soil to feast on. So this should be the last week without fertilizer for them.
Watering will be 0.2l per day from this week onwards and we'll see how they take it. But i'm quite positive that they developed enough roots to take that up. I'll be cautious and watch them closely.
So i think its time to make some plans how we approach this run in terms of timing. This weekend (or when they reach their sixth/seventh node), i'm gonna top them down to their third node and set up a little base for them to grow from.
After the topping i want to have at least another three weeks of veg. I think one is needed to recover, then two for nice and rapid growth before we switch to flower.
And i decided to do a preventive flush when switching lights from veg to flower. Because in all my photoruns (just two, but its all the experience i got), i ran into issues at the start of the flower and i want to test if a flush prevents that.
But i like how its going, i'm hoping for a smooth cruise all the way. But i guess we all do π Happy growing folks! π±ππ
@TerpyTears, Thank you so much Terpy! Ouuu exciting! I got some "Radical Juice Auto"-Beans ready to be popped in summer! So i'll need to have a close eye on your run! Happy growing π±ππ
@nonick123, Thank you for the good tip buddy! Is 10 days your personal sweetspot? Its very good to have a guideline lile that. Very helpful! Cheers my friend ππ±ππ
Congrats on the successful germination! Iβve heard good things about Ripper Seeds and you seemed to get a good yield on your previous grow, looking forward to watching how the sour ripper grows :D
@GrowsHimself, Thank you so much buddy! Its very nice to have you here! I'm pretty happy with Ripper so far. The Haze smells nice and hits me good! So i'm really looking forward for the sour ripper as a nice strain for the upcoming summer! Happy growing and thanks for checking out and taking the time to drop a comment! π±ππ
