Lord_Bonsai After a

Lord_Bonsai Throughout the week, I have been taking care of the plants.

Lord_Bonsai This week they made a huge leap.

Lord_Bonsai This week I switched the tent to the Blumat drip system.

Lord_Bonsai They are really thriving.

Lord_Bonsai This week, the drip system gave me a slight heart attack. The reference plant was drooping all over. First, I had to water by hand and remove the big leaves. The end of the story: the 3mm hose got clogged before the valve of the drip system due to the nutrients. Now the question remains: different nutrients, regular cleaning, or water by hand?

Lord_Bonsai They grow very differently. The topped one and another are developing splendidly, the reference is just recovering, but the water withdrawal has left its marks. The feminized one is somehow just a small green plant thing. The shortened part can easily be prone to mold.

Lord_Bonsai That was the last week of growth. Amazing, the topped one is the biggest, the untreated ones have totally different growth, and I won't even talk about the one I fimmed. ;)

Lord_Bonsai So different, as siblings can only be. The topped one is growing great, a regular one is normal. The one with the water problem isn't really getting anywhere, and the feminized one is the black sheep.

Lord_Bonsai I had to take down the drip system for the lollipop popping and leaf treatment. It's also staying away. Unfortunately, the fertilizer clogged the thin tubes.

Lord_Bonsai A beautiful collection of siblings

Lord_Bonsai Shockingly, I had to realize that at least one plant has produced a hell of a lot of seeds. What a bummer.

Lord_Bonsai With 2 of the 4 plants, a lack of water caused them to become so stressed that they produced seeds. And so many that I could just throw the 2 plants straight onto the compost.
