El Chemi Kiwi (again) 🥝

DrJones All good with this little one. Just plain ph’d water this week. Introducing nutes next watering. Light: 24% @ 30cm @ 18/6h approx 12 DLI

DrJones Watered with a light dose of fish mix and calmag. Increasing next week. Light: 50% @ 50cm @18/6h - approx 16 DLI

DrJones All good 👍 Day 17: Watered 4L, dechlorinated and ph’d Fish mix - 2ml/L Calmag - 0.3ml/L Light: 50% @ 40cm @ 18/6 - approx 20 DLI Avg temp: 21c Avg humidity: 65% Avg VPD: approx 0.9

DrJones Happy days. She made it to 4 weeks with no problems. Showing some pre flowers so starting bloom nutrients next week. Two side branches have grown taller than the main cola stem lol. Time for some training Light: 60% @ 35cm @ 18/6h approx 30DLI

DrJones This week I clipped Three pairs of fan leaves from up top and tied down the side branches. She’s drinking about 4L every 5 days. Flowering has started. More training next week. 💪 Light: 65% @ 32cm @ 18/6 approx 40 DLI

DrJones Trained her side branches down a bit more to widen the canopy. I think I’m gonna bend her main cola over to even everything out too. And I’ll probably do a bit of nipping, tucking etc next week. Light: 32cm @ 62.5% @ 18/6h approx 40DLI

DrJones This week i adjusted the LST and super cropped the main stem. I also defoliated leaves that were blocking other bud sites and removed a couple of sucker branches from the lower area. I left a few fan leaves around the outside and where they weren’t blocking anything. Unfortunately I burned some leaf tips after feeding green sensation(pk boost) this week. 🤦‍♂️ I forgot the sea silica has potassium in it as well. I think she would benefit from a plain water feed next week because as well as the burned tips there are a few shiny leaves and clawed tips too! Light: 60% @ 32cm @ 18/6 DLI approx 40

DrJones Here we are at the end of week 8 and her flowers have started pumping out some serious resin just oozing with terps! I fed half strength nutrients and cut out the silica, sugar royal, and green sensation this week due to burned tips and some clawed tips. The leaves still look shiny tbh and some tips are still clawed so I’ll continue as I am for now and ramp it back up when I thinks she’s ready for it. I’m also gonna reduce DLI a tiny bit. Light: 62.5% @ 32cm @ 18/6h approx 40 DLI

DrJones So after using half strength nutrients for a week she started to cannibalise her lower leaves, taking nutrients from them and sending to upper growth where required. In view of that, I started giving full dose again and reduced DLI to 35. Light: 68% @ 37cm @ 18/6h approx 35DLI

DrJones Week 10 is in the bag. I think she needs more time to finish bulking and maturing though. 2 weeks maybe Light: 68% @ 37cm @ 18/6h approx 35 DLI

DrJones Increased DLI to approximately 45. Buds are starting to swell but not quite at the finish line. Also waiting for some amber trichs because I'm looking for a stoney effect from this harvest. Hoping another week will do it 🙏

DrJones She's nearly there! Still not quite milky enough yet so I'm gonna let her go for another week while I keep an eye on those trichs. I defoliated some dying fan leaves since they weren't doing anything other than block light. Hopefully the lower buds will enjoy the extra exposure for the remainder of their time in the tent. Light: 62.5%@28cm@18/6h approx 45

DrJones The buds are looking done. Next update will be the harvest update. Light: 62.5%@28cm@18/6h approx 45DLI
