Week 3 after transition to flowering phase.
The cannabis patch has officially entered the flowering phase, and it's a beautiful sight! Three weeks after turning off the solar lamps, I’ve started seeing flowers develop, though each plant is progressing at its own unique pace. I’ve noticed some fascinating differences among the phenotypes: certain plants, especially those more sensitive to light changes, are taking a bit longer to start flowering. Meanwhile, others are blooming quicker, showing off their potential early on.
To support this stage, I’ve enriched the watering schedule with a touch of saltpeter and Epsom salt. Feeding the garden weekly seems to be working well overall, though Plant 3 appears a bit finicky—it’s more sensitive to the salt-based nutrients and shows a hint of pistil burn. I’ll keep an eye on it and adjust as needed.
The surviving clones are from the light-sensitive phenotypes, proving their resilience and adaptability in this setup. It’ll be interesting to see how they perform compared to the rest.
As a bonus, I’ve got a Solodiol CBD plant in the mix. It’s marketed as CBD-rich and is growing alongside my Critical CBD plants under the same conditions. While Solodiol is smaller in size, it’s already showing a faster flowering response. I’m excited to see how this affects the final yield—it’s shaping up to be an intriguing comparison! Stay tuned for more updates! 💚🌱
Comparatively, I have one other CBD rich plant. And the seed was marketed as “Solodiol CBD”. It is smaller than Critical CBD when grown under same conditions. Flowering is faster. I am interested in comparing the yield.
Nice breeder and strain. All the best 😉 and yeah thc/cbd ratio are often different than what the breeder say. I had a discussion with a guy that tested a few pure cbd and 1:1 strain with a gemma cert device, he got funky result with the ratio depending phenotypes.
They are pumping med,,
I haven’t seen those basket type pots here in AUS,
It gives me an idea to drill a heap of holes around one of my pots this year to try it 🍻
@Shooey, my biggest 25 gal basket cost around 7 AUD.
It is mainly used to carry farm produce.
At first, I was thinking about drilling holes at bottom of some laundry baskets. But it is much cheaper to buy produce baskets from farm supply shop.
My thing is growing on the cheap. 😀😀😀😀😀
@GYOweed, it's sea purslane. Root supposed to give beneficial hormone and host micorrhizae. It is useful when I transfer to bigger pot. Sucks up excess fertilizers.
This sea purslane plant actually growing along the beach. I actually plugged them out at high tide when they were fully under sea water.
Logic is not fully clear but weeds grow better with them especially during vegging cycle. After a while, weed root overtakes the pot and sea purslane won't grow that well.
I recycle the purslane as a way to keep microbe community going in my soil.
