Week 10 brings me closer to harvest, but not without its hurdles. Both Gorilla Cookies Auto and Gelato Auto are facing significant leaf problems. It's difficult to pinpoint the exact cause – a nutrient deficiency perhaps, or maybe overfeeding? Unfortunately, at this stage, there's little I can do to rectify the situation.
Despite these setbacks, there are positive aspects. Both plants have displayed good overall growth. The Gorilla Cookies will be ready for harvest in a few days, once the trichomes reach their optimal maturity. Gelato and Super Strawberry Skittles, however, will require a few more weeks to fully develop.
The outdoor Super Strawberry Skittles deserves a special mention. After a sluggish start, she's thrived this week, demonstrating some much-needed growth compared to the previous period. While not the largest plant in the bunch, her leaves are undeniably the healthiest. This experience highlights the importance of tailoring growing conditions to each individual plant's needs.
As harvest approaches, I'm cautiously optimistic. 👽
Snapped 2 branches while trying LST for the first time. Any idea how bad this is for my plant? Should I stop training to avoid more stress since I already topped her this week, or any other advice on how to redeem this mistake? 😩
It happens, you're fine. Honestly I remove those first node branches(sometimes the 2nd too)anyway as they tend to grow stretchy with large gaps between nodes. When using LST, take baby steps when working with stems that are starting to stiffen up.
You'll be fine with the lack of air movement at this stage of your grow, shouldn't cause you any issues! As long as you got a replacement fan coming at some point within too long, I would not worry😇
Congrats on your first harvest, looks like the grow went well. I have a 2x2 also, and have found that one healthy plant usually fills the space. Good move on the outdoor plant.
