This diary is dedicated to a little experiment with the 2 ladies at the back, 2 Dance World from Royal Queen Seeds. I have one just about to end its flowering cycle and I quite enjoyed her so I want to give her another go. Trained in a manifold she grew very thick short and bushy with a beautiful canopy. An incredible Pine, Citrus, Pineapple and Spices combo of fragrances.
Those 2 are from clones and have rooted the same day.
They will both grow in a fresh batch of soil.
Both pot will be layered and spiked. Soil recipe at the bottom as usual.
Both clones will be trained approximately the same which will start with a funky fim. Noding is already alternate so not a true FIM, and I might change my mind and top them, I was just curious there.
Knowing they get short and bushy I will just be randomly playing with them.
Let's see where it goes.
Day 1: They rooted in a jiffy pellet. they seemed to have a pretty vigorous root growth.
Day 7: They have established themselves in their new pot which is a mix of coco, perlite and worm castings.

@BeefWellingtons, You should give it a shot, you can find ways to make it fairly easy. I just puncture hole on the rim of the pot and attach my ties there , from there i just shorten or loosen them up , or move it left or right if I want to move the colas.
Omg its a heavy soil..... did you test the EC=? iam courious how the girls did it... i wont put a seed into that soil,, but the Clones , i will see. Ok they made it and look very good. may you get the EC of your Soil=? iam nosey
@Mrs_Larimar,Yeah it is indeed quite a heavy soil. And you are right I wuoldn't put seeds in this either, even clones were initially put in a milder mix.
Also the way I normally prepare my pots there is only around 7L of that soil in a 10L pot.
For the EC, I haven't measured it, I do have a EC meter but as far as I know it is for liquid.
How can I go about getting the EC ?
Super Healthy, and ive been reading more.... like you said in an organic grow the runoff Ec... who cares, the organic elements show up a biiig EC that has nothing to say.its only for sythetic fertilisers
This is one of my favorite strains. If you got the stretchy sativa phenotype, just pay attention to nutrients you give her because it’s a very sensible pheno. Good luck, I’m following!
