Hello Growmies,
Week 4 has wrapped up for our Purple Lemonade FF, and it's been a period of steady growth and lush development. Although they're a few weeks behind their garden companions, these plants have not let time dictate their progress. They're a striking reminder that with the right conditions, growth will follow its own unique and beautiful course.
Purple Lemonade #1, at 28 days, is shaping up nicely. Not the tallest in the garden, but what she may lack in height, she compensates for with an impressive canopy spread. The lower branches, having been pruned with care, have directed their energy upwards, resulting in a compact yet prolific leaf structure.
Her sister, Purple Lemonade #2, is keeping pace. The scrogging technique has encouraged her to expand horizontally, creating a vast green sea of leaves that captures light efficiently. This horizontal growth strategy is a wise use of space and light, promoting an even canopy that's vital for the flowering stage ahead.
The feeding regimen has remained unchanged, with Alga Grow, Sugar Royal, Power Roots, and Orca providing a balanced nutritional profile. This consistency in their diet is reflected in the uniformity of their lush, green leaves โ a clear indication of their health and happiness.
The environmental conditions, mirrored from the Caramel setup, have proven to be just as effective for these Purple Lemonades. The stability in temperature and humidity, along with the gentle airflow provided by the extraction box, has created an optimal growing environment that both plants have thrived in.
From the images provided, it's clear that Purple Lemonade #1, while sturdy, is the more modest of the two, with her growth more contained and her form more rounded. Purple Lemonade #2, on the other hand, is reaching out with a bit more audacity, her stems stretching out as she takes full advantage of the space provided by the scrog net.
As we move into Week 5, the potential of these plants is palpable. Their vibrant leaves and strong stems suggest a bounty of buds in our future. It's a grower's delight to witness such vitality, and I am filled with anticipation for what the coming weeks will bring.
Stay lifted,
Salokin
@nonick123, I sure hope sheโll double in size and catches up with the others ;) how much did yours stretch in the end from the moment you changed to 12/12?
๐ @Salokin, haha nooo not yet!! im germinating two RN (exciting times, yaknow.. )they will go on my windowsill.. bc its a bit too cold but just enough daylight.. (14/15hours) ofcourse i will not get much.. but it will get me started ๐
@Still_Smoq, the scary thing is that the mars hydro light, even though itโs not connected to the app, just switches off at least once a week. Together with all other mars hydro appliances that are connected though. The only light that doesnโt switch off,is the one controlled by my tent x
@morganfreeman420, i usually donโt have my plants stretch like that, BUT, I have to say that the bud formation on that lady is definitely amazing, think we can track this back to the Revegged she went through:) looking at this i will probably veg a bit longer on the Barneyโs run that is just upcoming โฆ
