Tropical Summer CBD grow

This year growing plan is progressing as it should. Four Critical CBD plants are growing well for the first crop. Each week, I move one plant to larger basket and containers. Two plants to 100-liter baskets. And two other plants to 80-liter container. Freshly added earth worm casting to old soil so no fertilizers used. Note that I also mixed in coconut husk to keep soil aerated. There should be plenty of microbes remaining from old soil since I keep pig weeds going in off season to feed the microbes. Plants are big enough. And fall equinox just went by. Day light is slightly under 12 hours. Flowering can probably start. However, I am waiting for the raining season to be over. Around Bangkok, there can be heavy rain until the end of November. So, I keep the night LED on for a couple more weeks. I’ll turn these lamps off around October 20th. And with tall plants, staking is necessary. I use PVC water pipe, old mob handles, or what ever is handy. Plastic and steel won’t rot. Even hardwood rot when I use “living soil” that has decomposing microbes. Next two weeks in veg phase, I shall start trimming off side branches. And these will be use as clone. It is such a hassle. But if I can get a plant with really high CBD, I should at least keep one as a mother for next year. For comparison, I have also a Solodiol CBD plant. It claims to have CBD only. Let’s see if it is true. Key thing is that my specimen of Solodiol CBD grows so slowly. I am not a big fan of slow growing plants. On the other hand, my high THC seedlings are developing well. I am looking forward for my dry season plants much more than these early season CBD’s. Week 19 – Keep growing. Week 20 – Transplant 2 specimen to 90-liters pot under solar light. Plants are 134 cm tall. Week 21 – Transplant 1 more to 80-liter container. Week 22 – trans plant the last one to 80-liter container. Plants are around 150 cm tall. After stretching, the final size should be around 180 cm to 200 cm.
