Hey folks, this week my girls started to grow big except the pound cake wich is a bit slim compared to others, and the gorilla is realy strechy so i tied her down :)).
try'd to raise the ppm lvl to 700 but the leafs started to get little burns and get darker so i reduced the intake to about 500. It seams wattering once per day now, by the end of week is kind of little and salts start to build up and gave them a flush with 400 ppm cal-mag xtra, so i'l start wattering twice per day now with same quantity of 1.2l
should i defoliate or not? she is realy short and bushy. can't do much by spreading stalks, will she grow taller ?
strain is lemon cherry cookies auto in end of week 4 , conditions are optimal not great so i'm afraid to stress her
It’s best to keep your canopy full during the vegetative stage to capture as many photons as possible. So I would not trim if it is not needed. I like to expose my branches to more light by tucking down the big fan leaves covering them. This will help those branches grow faster.
It looks like you’re about to be entering into the stretch phase of the plant. You can expect them to double if not triple in size in the coming weeks. It’s quite amazing how much they grow once they start to flower. So all your growth you are looking for will happen soon.
It looks like you are doing a great job and they are thriving so far.
I hope this helps.
