As you can see my Bikini Girl is actually doing quite well, damage or not. I hate that I have her ends up in a "V" to keep the gaps more closed. Would much rather have her flat so the colas were more even height wise, but this is what it's going to be, I can't risk puller her down more and opening up the splits.
She's being defoliated constantly and is feeding well. Her little crowns are now out in full force and her main trunk looks stronger then ever, although small compared to the other girls I have growing right now. She eats the least of all the girls but she is the smallest of all the girls as well.
I'm a little sad as I really wanted her to be big, massive, thick, and swimming in crystals.... I'm just not sure she will get there now. Crossing my fingers as we head into the bud development phase.
@NomNom, I was planning at the beginning to veg for 6 week which would have been mid April, but the way she’s growing I may have to switch at the end of next week, I have to be careful, I only have a 7’ tent and my brand new “Ceramic HPS” from hortilux recommends 3’ from the canopy. 😲😳🤯 , so I have to be careful. This was my first grow enriching my tent with co2 and man does it seem to speed thing up.
‘Twas doing research recently and got sidetracked reading about Bikini Atoll. At the time I couldn’t recall why it was so familiar ... I was thinking of your amazing plant diary. Subconscious brain buds. All hail NomNom.
@@BeanswithPork, Awesome!!! Fun fact not many people know. The bikini bathing suit was named after the place Bikini Atoll where the nuclear tests were conducted.
I'm sorry for the difficult thing you are having with your plant but just wanted to comment about your stress training in your plans that is very impressive even this grow looks very impressive nobody could tell that had such severe damage to it I hope you good luck with your grow.
I used paper tape for paint masking, just i glued it in certain way, for expanding branch to have space :
You do one layer only and leave a bit glued to each other. Basicly tape goes into spermataziod shape ;)))
0 around branch
- glued to each other
0- worked perfectly to me. In veg you made maybe a favour yourself. Extra pump capacity....
You can take it off after a month.
