No strings on me....
I took off all restraints, she's a free bird now...
Her flowers are developing further and the kolas are really taking shape, smell is getting stronger still.
After all the tie-downs were removed, the branches lifted a little, but for the most part they retained the turn upwards. Overall, the plant tightened up a little bit. which worked out nicely, because now, she fits perfectly under the light.
I had a little worry about the overlapping leaves and the condensation they create. So I repositioned the fan to provide the plant with an indirect flow of air. Now the leaves move slightly with the air current. I still see a little condensation, but not much at all.
right now, I'm just monitoring the nutrients and making sure she does not get thirsty
if i step back and look at everything
had i given her a full and proper vegetation period
she would have been a monster of a plant
even though she is short, her bud to branch ratio is still impressive
and she will produce a fair amount
by my count
16 kolas, ranging from 15cm to 25cm
The flowering of your plants looks to be progressing very well. There not much better than watching the flowering nodes begin to take shape and form beautiful buds. I'm eager to see how your grow finishes up and I wish you all the best in the rest of growing these girls. Cheers :D
The flowering nodes on your plants look to be absolutely amazing. You've done such an amazing job with this grow so far and I'm so excited to see how these plants finish up as well as to hear how they smoke. Best wishes my friend :D
@SensiSmellYahLater, Thank you very much π I appreciate that. I'm looking forward to the finish as well. I figure the end of January - ish and she'll be done cookin'.
@Mrs_Larimar, Thank you and be nosey - no worries :-)
The branches from the lower end of stalk are thinner, so I trimmed those a little extra, so that they could focus on the main flower on the branch.
The branches from the upper end of the stalk, I pretty much left alone. Just to see what they would do. One is untouched from the tie string up. One has the first node past the tie string trimmed, And the last one has two nodes past the tie string trimmed.
Between the various points of where the nodes were trimmed, you can see a difference in growth rate.
((Which is what I wanted to see, that specific difference in growth rate - when related to trimmed branches.))
The next grow - I will try mainlining.
