Plagron Royal Mix
QB 260
Planted on 22/1/2019
Sprouted 25/1/2019
1/2 lights up to 157W
So far so good, plant is growing at a steady pace, seedling stage is over
Nothing to note
Already started to grow fast, cant wait
She and the Washing Machine looks really similar so far,
you can see she will bushy right from the start
looking forward
She, along with C99, is the healthiest of the pack
Steady grow, a lot of low branches coming out, topping next week for sure.
I knew she wouldn't disappoint me
She is suffering too, but she's the one that shows less signs.
She's def not overwatered, and since she's in plagron royal mix, she shouldn't have feeding def for now
Topped on day 24
One week of total stop (as the rest of the garden) now she's recovering, started training, even though is kinda hard to tuck the leaves to get light to lower budsites due to leaves stem thickness
Thanks to everybody who helped along the way
Coming back stronger after transplanting
After 7/10 days of terror, we are back in the game. repotted in 10 L she def got better.
switching next week, i got to structure her more or less how I wanted, so big achievement.
She should stretch a lot
Doin' great after recovering and most of all the pot switch. I'll stop training now and let the branches grow in heights, she has a very nice structure and I managed to get the whole pot covered in bud sites,
Light is now at 200W 22" from canopy.
She's a beast! I knew she was a strong plant, but this is way beyond what i figured. I defoliated and lollipopped a bit, but since it's a tech which i'm not really confident in, I went easy on her
I was hoping for a little bit more stretch during this week, based from what I saw in other diaries, maybe I should have vegged a week more. Lesson learned
Anyway she's filling up at a steady pace daily, and she's already producing a lot of trichomes, so everything good :)
I have nice 8 colas on the rim, but the center is a bit underdeveloped, another lesson learned, half-winning LST
She's filling up, smells a lot like candy right now.
as for the other two, some signs of what looks like light burn, I raised the lamp to 24", I hope it doesn't get worse
Fattening up and covering with trichomes, she's a real beauty.
The light burn seemed exactly a light burn, the problem stopped with raising the light.
I'm feeding at 6.3 but now my runoff is insane now like 7.6 (always been regular 6.8/7), but the plant look healthy, so I really don't know if I should flush or not.
Too much leaves, I will have to practice with defoliation tech
I def should have defoliated, the branches could have been MASSIVE. Experience.
She's maturing fast, probably just two weeks, already some cloudy trichomes.
The lower buds look more frosty than the tops lol
Yo! Excellent question as there is often some divergent opinion. The general rule is that you should strip and defo just before the flip to flower and then again after about the third week of flower. Many prefer not to even touch their plants after this last defoliation. The plant will stop producing new leaves after about week 5 or 6 (where u are now) and people tend to get very concerned with overly stressing the plant when getting close to harvest. There are others however, who continue to defo their plants through all weeks and stages for the sake of ensuring optimal light penetration. Having done both in the past I would say that either is perfectly acceptable and I tend to lean to the latter myself. The only important difference to consider is stress to the plant. 2 huge defos and no other pruning will allow for recovery. But continuing to be this ruthless multiple times at all stages COULD negatively impact the grow. The best option if defoing through all weeks is to go easier on the plant in small pieces/stages. Little bits at a time so u keep her happy and unconcerned about the loss of a couple leaves. So to finally answer your question - at week 6 of flower you’re likely not gonna get anymore new leaf growth. It could definitely use a prune to expose those colas further down so I’d start with all the larger fan leaves and focus more on the middle of the plant. Take a few here and there for the next week to 10 days until you’re satisfied that the bud sites have the light exposure they need. You should be able to avoid plant stress this way while also increasing bud swelling. After the first prune give 24 hours and if she looks healthy and happy, take off some more. Best I got for ya dude - good luck!👊😎
As suggested by @thebudwhisperer, I defoliated nearly everyday, she did not give any sign of not liking it, so I kept exposing the lower parts of the branches.
A lot of cloudy thricomes, I guess she will be ready sometime during next week.
Not that much smell, but beatiful looking flowers
Harvest on thursday or friday. majestic buds, really can't wait to taste it
not much smell at all, but grat humidity resistance since she had no problems, while my C99 did.
nex update will be harvest
thanks everybody for following
Flowers 50,31g
Trim 12,78g
Total 63,09g
I will update with details in two three weeks, haven't sampled yet
Lost some crop, not much, due to budrot like on the C99
