Aug 24: starting the sixth week of flowering and this Blueberry Pie F1 Fast is amazing. The development of the flowers has been very fast and they are nice and big and thickening quickly.
Thanks to Mrs.Larimar and I totally agree that these F1 hybrids are amazing.
Did a watering round with potassium silicate, and likely the last one but we’ll see.
Probably three weeks at most to go, so no more molasses and now mostly just pHed water to the finish line.
Did a final light application of malted barley and Power Bloom and watered in. Removed fan leaves that were growing inward and shading buds.
Aug 25: Flash pics are only okay when using a far red light after. Don’t take flash pics of plants unless you also have a red light. Having said that, I love taking flash pics of my plants.
Aug 26: sunny again but not too hot and had the UV lights going. To spread the UV around I rotate the plant 90 degrees three times. This seems to be okay. This plant is the furthest along in flowering so I’m giving it most of the UV light and the slower ones can wait until they’re closer to harvest.
Aug 27: she’s doing great. Up to 12 h of rain tonight with the potential for a pretty intense thunder or hail storm in middle of the night. All plants are in the garage tonight to ride it out.
Aug 28: spent last night in the garage to stay out of the all night rain that was forecast. Turned out to just be light rain. Overcast all day and no UV light today.
Aug 29: this plant is amazing, but I’ve said that before. The other day I noticed that some branches on the side are heavy enough that they are now slumping against the SCROG net. Fun to see that.
The flowers are noticeably bigger each day and she still looks very happy. She is also becoming quite top heavy but the water bottle weights and five gallon pails of water hold it stable in the winds.
@Still_Smoq, right on, thanks. Should be good, I’ve got some new UV lights to use during peak sunlight hours to make Edmonton in September seem like California in July. 👍👍
@musashi_miyamoto, thanks. I just measured the diameter at 44” or 1.12 m. With area equal to pi x r-squared that is very close to 1 m2. I want to see if I can break a pound of dried bud (454 g) from each of my photoperiod plants, and it is looking possible. 👍
@musashi_miyamoto, yeah the Euphoria seems a bit ahead in part because it recovered quicker after the last round of topping. For a couple days the fan leaves got bigger on the BB Pie, but the growth tips were slower to grow than on Euphoria. Could be just the heat, and now we get 7 days above 30 C with two days at 35 C. That’s hot anywhere, including here.
and for outdoor? holy shit, they are starting to flower 3 week after the lighthours getting shorter, thats the total point in growing outdoors, getting a fast flowering
