Week 14 update - sadly I was correct. She stretched another 7” this past week and is now standing at 30” tall following lst, supercropping and a scrog net. None of it worked the way it needed to so that she stayed low and away from the grow light. No choice now and we’ve gotta bend a few of the taller colas over. It won’t look as pretty and we’re not quite sure how she’s gonna take to more hst this late in the game but the next 2 days are our last window to try and mitigate what will become a light burn disaster if we don’t get the canopy lower. Other than that she got a light defo just to open up the canopy and get light penetration a little deeper. The next week will tell the tale on the eventual harvest. Thanks as always for take’n a look. If she doesn’t stress too much she’ll be a beast!👍😎👊
July 25 update - bent over the tallest cola that was touching the light. Took awhile to soften up the stem but it worked without any cracking so should be ok. Hopefully she’s not too stressed by it.🤞 damn I’ve had to cross my fingers a lot on this grow...
Background
To the best of our knowledge, White Label is outta Amsterdam and this is their purple haze. It’s a 70% sativa, medium size by comparison to other sativas. Sorry - specific strain background is unknown. The effects description is perfect for our purposes and sounds like a great day time option. The original intent was to just get one of these growing, throw on a property and let her do her thing without much involvement. Well, complications arose and ensued and we ended up having to swap out the 707 in the cabinet with this girl instead just to keep growth rates relatively comparable with the strawberry Cough that’s fully go’n off right now👍. Then she caught a massive deficiency, ended up in ICU and has been on her own ever since. The planting medium is coco and purlite in a 7gal. Smartpot. She was topped at about the 5th node to match heights with the SC and break apical dominance. There is honestly no particular plan with this plant so it should be fun to see how she turns out - thanks for stoppn in. She’s def. an all time classic👊.
@randyjustice, cheers bud appreciate the look👍. This one got delayed a week with a deficiency issue... and then another week to stagger harvest with other grows. If all goes well with getting the net down this week, probably be flipping this Saturday/Sunday. Depends on how tameable she is - scrogging this plant is a bit of an afterthought... much like the entire grow! Lol👊
@mr_h_kovert, appreciated as always HK. Still a little in awe on the colour variance. Yield was a surprise too so it’ll keep us in a haze for a good while👍😎👊
Good job! I know you think differently for this round, but they say part of being a good grower is learning to resolve and adapt to problems, and with that yield you proved that you can. I still have yet to get a grow that I'm completely happy with. It's all a learning experience.
@MovingOn, yeah I guess so. In the end I’m happy with it - just a little annoyed with some of the decisions which only made it more difficult. But ur right - end result is there👍 And man she’s tasty👌👊
