Start of week 3 and the plant still looks healthy. It got transplanted into a 9l pot yesterday. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos since I focused on stressing the plant as little as possible but I can tell you that the roots already ran out of space. Luckily I got enough space in my tent for the bigger pot.
After the transplantation I gave 500ml of tap water @pH6.3 with 2ml of Biobizz Root Juice.
Tought about topping the plant this morning but ran out of time because of work so I will do it later when I come back home.
Day 15: No water, no feeding (plant got watered after transplantation).
Day 16: No water, no feeding.
Day 17: Soil was dry, ramped up the dosage to 1l @pH6.3 with
- 4ml of Root Juice
- 1ml of CalMag Agent
- 2ml of Cannazym
Day 18: No water, no feeding.
Internodial spacing is too short. Would really like if the plant could stretch a bit. If it was the only plant in the tent I would increase the light distance but I have flowering plants in the tent as well so that is not an option. Any suggestions on how to decrease PPFD for a single plant without touching the lamp?
Day 19: No water, no feeding.
Started mainlining. Removed everything beside the 2 main nodes.
Day 20: Soil is still wet. Will have to water tomorrow or the day after.
The 2 main branches really got some substantial growth. Plant seems to be handling the stress of the cuts quite well and directs its energy into its only left branches.
Day 21: Gave 1l @pH6.3 with
- 4ml Root Juice
- 2ml Cannazym
- 1ml CalMag Agent
Topped the 2 main branches. ✂️
Plant is too bushy to really train it. Don't know if it is the strain or the intense light. Still happy with the growth. Not in a rush with this plant, it can take its time.
And that's it for week 3. Stay tuned for next week and happy growing everybody! 🌱
@Stony_German, Danke Stony! Dachte beim ersten Bruch schon "das war's" aber die Pflanze konnte alle Äste heilen. Wirklich wahnsinnig resistente Pflanzen, und wunderschön noch dazu!
@Stony_German, Thanks again mate! I know, outdoors in Germany plants usually flower at the end of August or at the start of September. If it won't flower until mid September I will move it back inside my tent as a backup solution.
@Sonic27, Adding some more things that are important in my opinion:
- first plan your layout, then start training
- don't top too early: side branches need some substantial growth and the main stem needs to be thick enough
- same applies for side branches (in this diary I was too early for example)
- be gentle when applying LST
- don't use thin wire for LST, it can cut into stems that break when they grow further
- when stems don't properly bend, give them a slight pinch, that way they get softer
- don't cut off too much plant material (as stated earlier)
Hope this helps. ❤️
@Franky38, Freut mich! Bin selber überrascht wie gut das für nen First try geworden ist. Ganz ohne Wunden hat es nicht geklappt aber die Lady hat sich immer wieder regeneriert, wahnsinnig resistente Pflanzen 😍
@DaddyPrime2, Growing since April when it became legal in Germany 😂. I've watched some grow tutorials, the rest is try and error. Highly recommend to check out "basementganja" on YouTube, he is my virtual senpai.
