Wohooo we managed to get to the second week after the switch to 12:12. The plants did a pretty significant stretch and push a bit higher every day. I did some defoliation at the lower half of the plant, did some lst and tried some supercropping on the higher branches to level them out. I try to find a heaΓΆthy balance between stress and rest for the plants.
This is gonna be the last week of plant "manipulation". After this week i'll just let them go. But things are looking fine so far. Both strains grow different but fine. All the plants look healthy and there are no signs of infestations or sth. Seems good!
Have a nice weekend and see you next week! Happy growing folks π±ππ
@cheech87, Thank you so much buddy!π±ππ Ripper Seeds for sure is worth a try (the photoperiods, the autos not so much)! Well and except their "Sour Ripper"... I'm beyond unlucky with these beans, but one day i'll successfully grow them ππ
@Qutro, Thank you buddy! But as i wrote to @Natrona, i am a absolute beginner when it comes to mainlining. Until now the survival rate is 50/50. I hope i'll come out of this run with a positive percentage ππ±ππ
@Sour_D, No way buddy! You know your plants! I cut them today and they seem to take it pretty good as far as i can tell. I'm think its not "superior" to topping/lst but a fun techniqueππ±ππ
Looks just good so far, they look healthy. Everything holds better with duct tape. πͺ
I train my plants exactly so that I will have 8 main lines later. The symmetrical aspect is always very important to me... this time I only broke off one branch with 8 plants hehe.
Your plants will look gorgeous when you're back π
@Schnabeldino, Thank you buddy! Yeah i'm still learning a lot, but i think 8 colas should be a sweet spot. π I broke a lot this run, but hey at least i'm learningππ±ππ
@Hologram, Hahaha big bowla are the best sleeping medicine! I also got a mighty+ and a tiny might 2. Love them both dearly! But i need to look into upgrades like the waterbubbler. Or an adapter to use the vape with the bong. π
yeah party hardy π€ π @Herbie101, i mostly use the mighty plus (with waterbubbler) and a big vaporizer (i have a small clip of that in diary dosido and runtz)that big one has a big bowl so u can imagine if i fill it!! π€π€π€ ( and i doπ..at nightπ) and you?
@Hologram, Hahaha thank you so much! I'll join the celebrations π What vape are you using? I just made the switch from combustion a few weeks ago and am still figuring things outπ π±ππ
@Hologram, Thaaank you Holo! I just changed my mainline plans yesterday. I'm gonna do a very classic version this time because i thought i had a good idea. (My spontanious cannabis infused ideas are not always the best, but we'll see how it plays out! π Much love! π±ππ
@Schnabeldino, Thank you for your trust buddy! you got more of it than i do π Nah i hope it'll be fine!
From my perspective Ripper is really worth a try. Only their "Sour Ripper" is testing my patience π π
@Hologram, My thanks holo! Yeah the grow pretty fat leaves already, but as long as they don't grow sideways too much i guess i'm fineππ π±πππ
Plant are looking great buddy! Nice that you're going to mainline them, will be watching closely as I'm thinking about doing this in my next run. Good luck and happy growing βοΈβοΈπ
@Zengrower, Be my guest and thank you so much buddy! Yeah i'm in no hurry this run because the stash is filled nicely, so i can easily "afford" a longer run. And i think the technique is really fun to do! Happy growing buddy π±ππ
