Planet of the Grapes First Grow

Hashukmahli Finally realized I was going too long between watering and started watering before they lose rigor, used mason line for my scrog

Hashukmahli I went pretty hard on the lollipopping over a couple days, hopefully I will get some nice tops. I gave it four days and flipped on day 69.

Hashukmahli Flowering started day 69, they look like they’ve recovered fine from the lollipopping

Hashukmahli Stretch noticeable, added second scrog for support.

Hashukmahli It’s adding an inch or more in height everyday, I’m seeing the bud sites forming. I noticed the bottom foliage yellowing faster with brown tips and edges so I finally started feeding with gh trio and cal mag.

Hashukmahli The color of the fan leaves is too yellow, I upped the feed and adjusted ph every watering to pH 6.5. Much of fan leaves starting from the bottom have been yellowing and looking bad, I fixed the pH and upped the nutrients so it will hopefully slow down and the color will correct soon. Although the developing sugar leaves are a bit darker, so maybe it is already beginning to help. I also took off a bunch of wimpy shoots that didn’t reach the rest of the canopy and pulled off some buds that were too low, I didn’t go super aggressive. This is my first grow, so I will see what this gets me and learn what I want for the future. I may do a bit more defoliation to improve airflow over the next few weeks, I am hoping to avoid mold mildew and bud rot as best I can.
