04/17 (Day 15) - With the start of the new week comes new experiences, and today the girls got their first taste of real daylight. Was a nice 14oC sunny day. Around dinner I took the liberty to transplant 707 P1 and P3 to 3L pots. They weren’t thrilled with the whole ordeal, but I gave them a cup of nutes as a reward. I have 4L ready mixed I’ll use for the next little bit. Easy does it at first till I see how far I can push them.
707 P2 is clearly the winner so far for the headbands, Mango P1 for the Sapphires. P2 and P3 have very similar charastics thus far, but we’ll see once they go into bondage. 707 P1 and P3 are coming along nicely, but I fear for P3. Time will tell but she looks stunted, and typically the roots never quite get there. Here’s hoping she comes around.
Regardless, only 4 will make it, it’s a marathon to May 24, not a sprint.

04/21 (Day 19) - have been monitoring the girls this weekend closely. Typically I would have started to train them at least a few days before they get transplanted to 3L pots, which would be now. Noticed Saturday roots were poking out the bottom of a few pots. I tipped a few to check and sure enough they are wrapping around the bottom. Decided I would give them tomorrow and transplant them to larger still pots. Once there, I’ll let them rest a day or 2 and begin the big bend.
I’m also super impressed with the secondary branching of the 707s. P2 (pictured) clearly show this compared to the Mango P2. The Mango is more what I would expect, the 706 is just crazy. P1 & P3 are exhibiting similar characteristics. The 707s are also clearly sativa dom as advertised, as they already seem more spread out. The Mangos are like little fat plum trees with new growth being closely noded together.

04/22 (Day 20) - decided to transplant today so I would slow them down. It was a nice day today so they were outside in the bright warm sun. Grew a ton today so before bringing them in I transplanted the 3 Mangos and 707 P2. I’ll give P1 & P3 a few more days before moving them. Just water to soak the soil. Training should begin tomorrow so long as they have recovered and are perky tomorrow. I’ll give the girls some food this weekend, likely closer to a full dose.
Excellent! And they’re going outside the way nature intended too:+1:. I’ll def. tag along on this. Mine will stay inside - got something else planned for my local outdoors this year. Still - should be a fun grow, I’m absolutely stoked about this strain!:sunglasses::facepunch:
