Another week in the books and these girls have really started to take off! Growth in height is a bit deceptive, because half way through the week I started training them lightly. Mainly just pulling the branches apart slightly and lining them up for a more filled in canopy. Only 2-3 ties per plant, because they are naturally growing very bushy like. Out of say 8 branches per plant maybe 4-6 were all the same height already, less work for me I like it! That's my normal experience with blueberry, I find they grow quite bushy. Showing sex already, I would expect to see start of flower sometime around the end of this week. Carbon filter now installed as my wife was saying 'a smell' was noticable. I can never tell until theyre well into flower don't have the best nose
Lights 12" @60% 550-560 umol/s
damn brother, sooner or later you're gonna spot a tiger in that mf jungle!
looking nice as always, something to strive for, although.. me going into automated drip shit stuff? maybe in a few years 😂
@ironf1st, thanks dude! I have noticed a huge difference since switching to the AutoPots, especially with auto strains. No more guessing how hungry or thirsty they are, they just drink as needed. No fancy pumps or drip emitters, just plain easy gravity feed bottom watering. Although the air domes help (about 30% more yield) they aren't a needed if want to keep the watering system power free. Now it's just up to me to keep raising the lights to keep up with the plant growth haha
They are looking beautiful my friend, and yes, if you'd asked me, I would've said, their growth is slowed down due to the defoliation, that's why I would rather prune them a little bit every couple of days through the grow, automatics are really finicky when it comes to handling stress like that. I have noticed it with the white haze automatic my friend gave me, my first automatic I had, I just Pruned her carefully, bit by bit, it grew much bigger than the one I have in there right now. They get shocked very easily. Not a fan of autos tbh. But still, yours look beautiful. Good luck on the final phase my friend!
I love that I came by your page, I really like what I see!. If you have time to spare, please come over I have 5 diaries going on at once. Would be fun to have you over! Good luck with everything and I’m sending my best wishes for you and your future grows! /LST 😃🌱
