All 9 seeds germinated quickly in the germinator.
I´ve had 2 failed grows of Red Mandarine Fast, and I thought I would finally get a plant that would finish. Sadly I broke one of the cotyledons when trying to release the husk 😒
The girls survived the first week. Red Mandarine looks terrible, but the leaves are growing well, so I think it´ll ok soon. Black Muffin has some damaged leaves but is ok. All others develop normally.
It´s been pretty cold and all the plants have been growing slowly. None has been topped yet. But they all seem healthy.
Red Mandarine has weird leaves on nodes 1 and 2, but look fine from node 3.
Black Muffin has recovered and is growing well.
I´ll top them all shortly. I am considering quad-lining them and then do a second topping to get 8 main branches.
The plants are doing their grow thing and not much is happening other than they get a little bit bigger each day. I am waiting to top them. I want them a little bit bigger, and then I´ll top them all. I plan to keep nodes 3 and 4 only.
I´ve done the first topping. All the plants have been topped above node 4. Nodes 1 and 2 have been removed. I will do a second topping shortly. All branches will be topped above nodes 3. Nodes 1 and 2 will be removed.
Training has started. The girls are getting the second topping to start growing their 8 branches. Nodes 1 and 2 are removed from each branch before they are topped above the 3rd. Some of the plants are all done, and some need to grow a bit more before being cut.
I have also started to tie the branches down
All of them have now had their final toppings, and they started growing their 8 branches. Some has grown way taller than others and I had to shuffle them around a bit. I also hung the light on an angle.
The girls are doing well. They all now have 8 branches that grow at different speeds. I keep reshuffling the plants according to size. The shortest at the back and the light at an angle. Black Muffin and Papaya Zoap are the largest plants. Red Mandarine and Jack Herer are the smallest.
The dimmer on my light is useless and I set the light to 100% and put it quite high above the canopy.
The last week of veg. I have started the switch with a 36 hour period of darkness. I have defoliated down below, but nothing at the top yet. It is pretty crowded in the tent, and it will get packed with buds!!
