Garlic Budder – HSC – Fabric Pots Scrog

Introduction - Week 06 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 9819.86, Wow what flower week! Overall, growth was pretty steady and looking great! Stating to notice some deficiency with the original #2 pheno. Also the #3 pheno is not going to make it to harvest. Both #1 and #4 are looking healthy! Bud growth is continuing to impress and #4 is dominating the tent! I can’t keep up with watering! Top dressed 3 of the plants and also raised the grow light up a bit. Even tried to increase the intensity, but dropped that back down due to high temps. Even with the setbacks, this is still turning out to be my best grow cycle yet! As for the veg tent, the #4 clone is looking green and healthy! Also installed new passive intake vents. Topped the girls early in the week. Plan to take clone cuttings to cycle out each mother plant soon. Anyways, onwards to next week!
