At day 36 start of week 6, Dream is 12”, Kush is 9.5” and Gas is 10.5”.
On day 37 I was adjusting a stem bender on Kush and broke a stem. I tried mending it but the break was bad and I had to cut that stem which was one of the main ones. It's my first time using this brand (Engineered Essentials) and overall they work fine but it's easy to slip and break a stem.
By day 41, Dream is 19”, Gas is 16” and Kush is 15” - the early flowering growth spurt is on.
They’re all showing good pest resistance. I’m monitoring and picking off bugs a few times each day but still they’re doing great. Very little leaf damage considering they’re constantly under assault from spider mites, white flies, caterpillars etc. I'm not using fly paper this time because last grow 2 birds got fly paper stuck to their wings and probably died that way - trying not to kill any birds this grow! I have a mosquito zapper (tennis racket style) which I use on the different flies and bugs around the plants, which helps some.
