Day 22 - 05/11 - The idea is to keep 5 colas and train them in a star shape, one of them is a little more cooperative than the other.
Day 24 - 07/11 - They were given a basic microbial tea. Growth has improved quickly after that.
Day 27 - 10/11 - They were trained some more, just keeping those colas growing horizontally. All the growth except for the first 1-2 nodes was removed. They were also given a Sprouted Seed Tea (Alfalfa,Barley,Corn,Cannabis). I have never given this tea right after a training/timming session. Let's see if all the beneficial enzyme, hormones, amino acids, etc help reduce the stress.
----------
Tea recipe :
for 1L:
24ml Vermicast
6ml BS molasse
0.65ml Fish Hydrolysate
2.5ml Kelp meal
0.65ml Soft Rock Phosphate
Sprouted seed tea :
1.5g alfalfa seeds/L
3g of Barley seeds/L or 7.5g malted barley flour/L
3g of corn seeds/L
3g of cannabis seeds/L
1. Measure ammount ie 50g
2. Soak in water for 24h
3. Drain and put in cloth, rest for 24h ( Ideally you want your seeds to weigh double after step 2.)
4. Ready when sprouts are about the length of the seed, if not repeat step 2 and 3
5. put in blender with a little water and puree it.
6. Puree can be frozen into cubes for further use.

@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!
