Cherry Poppers | mainlining

HudsonGrow Three days ago, she came out of the soil and is now in a small seedling box for a few days.

HudsonGrow She was repotted into a 1-liter Air-Pot. Some Great White was sprinkled into the new pot and onto the propagation plug. Afterwards, she was thoroughly watered, and some water was left in the coaster for humidity.(water is not in touch with the soil) The light was dimmed up to 20%.

HudsonGrow Nearly four weeks after germination, the plant was repotted into a 5-liter Air-Pot. During repotting, Great White was sprinkled onto the root ball. Two days later, it was pruned. The tip and the first node were cut off. I'm using node two and three for the training. Light at 40-50%.

HudsonGrow She was repotted into the final 12,5-liter AirPot. During repotting, Great White was sprinkled again into the hole and onto the root ball. Her growth is being directed sideways up to approximately 4-5 internodes.

HudsonGrow The plant was topped at its four main shoots. On the lowest shoot, a cut was made above the third node. Additionally, the second node was cut off. On the uppermost shoot, a cut was made above the second node, and no further cuts were made. Each shoot was also bent down to the same height.

HudsonGrow A few cuts were made to the plant and new shoots were removed. Existing shoots were then bent down further so they could continue to grow sideways. The left shoot is a bit larger than the others, but this shouldn't be a problem. The plant is now allowed to grow upwards for the next few days before a Scrog Net can be installed.

HudsonGrow Cherry Popper has now grown a bit taller. Several new shoots have formed above the bend. A Scrog net will be hung a few cm just above the plant in a few days, and the light cycle will be switched to 12/12 in a few days as well. It has a thick stem, and the four brench are stable enough to be able to support the future flowers.

HudsonGrow After exactly 8 weeks, it's time to flip the Cherry Poppers to flower. 🍒 The lights are set to 12/12 and the ScrOG net is hung about 4-6 inches above the canopy. This gives the tops time to gain some height and bulk during the first week of the stretch before tucking and tying them down. Also turn up the intensity of the light a bit (But not 100% yet)

HudsonGrow The plant is almost a week into flower. 🍒 Two days ago, I lollipopped her, stripping all the lower branches and fan leaves. She handled it really well and showed no signs of stress.✂️ The flowering stretch has definitely kicked in, and the phyllotaxis has also transitioned from opposite to alternate nodes. I've been doing some LST on the taller tops, bending them down and tucking them under the SCROG net to keep the canopy even. Right now, the screen is almost full. Nearly every square has a top in it or is assigned to a lower branch that's now getting direct light and will fill its spot soon. Light was set to 100%
