So I was just having a good look at my plants today, when I noticed that one of the girls looked different! She has three leaves instead of the usual two appearing! I realized it was odd when I saw that she also had three cotyledons instead of the normal and natural two! So I did my research and it's called either whorled phylotaxy or a polyploid (which I figured from the start).๐
So obviously, I'm a first time grower and a newbie to it all, and I'm not sure if these girls are ready to be moved outside yet, or are they still a bit too small? Should I wait for a second pair of true leaves?โ
Thank you! I have access to both a vegetable garden (the veggies grow really well here) at my own home and then I'm also looking into cloning and planting my polyploid plant on a 1 hectare farming plot that I have available! What would you suggest? @MagicMikesMeds,
If this is the real swazi gold your in for a treat man that plants gonna get huge !!! and what homegrown has given you is the ideal ph ranges for soiless you want to be in the 6.5-6.8 range for soil , if its a soiless mix then your fine . Sending your ladies lots of positive vibes !
-Happy Growing!
Your PH might be a little high mate.The ideal PH is about 5.5 to 6.5 any higher and the plants can find it difficult to take in the nutrients.Try to leave nutrients until about 2 or 3 weeks into a grow.I have a mixed lighting system. I have an LED and 600w MH grow light.I have it mixed to give the best conditions and warmth.Humidity is also a big factor in growth.All in all, good luck with the grow mate.I'll be following along.
