Day 9 Veg: The Little lady has been performing well this week. She has had a move from the temporary pot as her roots needed to spread out before they started circling in there.
Having decided on going coco and using the 27ltr fabric pots i dug out the remainder of some Plagron Coco i had to use up. I rated this product in a precious grow so seems a waste to not use a dedicated coco product at least until flower , then its back the gh trio. I am using the Plagron power roots too as i also had great results in the past with it in coco. The feed mix is coming in at around 1040ppm on my meter which feels like a mega feed compared to the 600 used in the rdwc. The plants seem to love it and have shown no signs of burn or otherwise so far. After a lot of shuffling around to accommodate the plants into their final pots and positions The Blue Gelato has a prime spot directly under the lights. I have put both 600w MH on now and am hoping to minimize the vertical stretch a little and get the nodes as close as i can together. This might result in using "tip spreading" once the 5th nodes have grown out enough to top. I am going to Quadline her to spread her out before her flowering is induced and there may be a possible scrog net used if they get too boisterous.
She responded to the up-pot well and after 3 days she looks happy and has definitely stood up and out more. Her leaves are looking very healthy green and she is forming her base nicely. I am hoping her rootball will be nicely started now too. Hopefully see signs of roots touching the pots sides within a week.
I am feeding her every 4 days at present as this is enough time to use the feeds before replaced by fresh ones. I expect this to go up very quickly as she grows and the coco reaches full moisture levels to the edges of the pots.
The next week should be building the foundation for their flowering structure so fingers crossed for a positive one.
