Day 21: I decided to do a heavy defoliation this time and see what happens. Trying to get more stacked colas. I’m following a tutorial from growweedeasy.com for reference and we’ll see how it goes. I’m pretty sure I removed too many growth shoots from the lower part of the plants weeks ago. Oh well. I’ve been foliar spraying with silicate, sea storm, b plus and cal mag just a couple drops/500ml bottle and watered day 21 with 1/2 L of week 3 supplements at 335 ppm 6.1 ph as I’m sure they’re stressed and once they bounce back they’ll get a nutrient feed. I turned the hps up to 750w along with the 600w led (277 true watts) as I have my intake and exhaust fans on 24/7 to control humidity was getting into the 80% range. Temps and humidity are fairly steady now at 50% and temps are 79-D 68-70-N. Going to have to keep an eye on it now that the leaf matter is gone. Buds are coming along nicely, interesting to see the side by side difference between hps and led. Hps pistils are longer and slightly bigger and led are more compact and curled pistils, but more dense. Thanks for checking in, Happy Growing 🌱

Grow Questions

SAC87started grow question 5 years ago
Does anybody have any tips to get these girls to chunk up? I’ve changed the bulb, recalibrated my ph pen, using a bud booster and still have some yellowing and color change in the fans already along with tip burn. I’d appreciate some advice. Thanks

Buds. Not fattening

Athos
Athosanswered grow question 5 years ago
Keep in mind that the fattening of the buds happen at the very end of the flower stage, if memory serves me well, in the final week its where the buds gain half of their final weight. You are the end of the 7 week of flower; next week will see a dramatic increase of size of the buds. for future reference, somemore training to keep a flat canopy will help a lot in bud size and yield.

@Mrs_Larimar, what would you suggest for a sog? 3 gal pots with the same number of tops so they have the ability to get bigger?? Thank you for the response to my question.

@DankGardener,my next run has to be my mothers. They’re giant and in big pots taking up half my veg tent. I have 8 3 gal fabric pots that I’ll use after that.

@SAC87, I'm going to run a sog my next grow. 9 2 gallons in a 3x3 is great pot size for an sog. But if you have a bigger space. Go with 3 gal

Hey SAC87, I have been reviewing your journal through the flowering weeks. Your problem that led to the "Buds not Fattening" began between weeks 10 and 11 when your PPMs jumped to 1040 - It was too much, You unknowingly created an imbalance in your root zone that led to a partial nutrient lockout. Then you compounded the Issue with High daytime temperatures and Increasing the Wattage without much change in the Distance between Lamp and Plant. Looking at the Photos, your plants began showing intervienal chlorosis and up curling of the serrated edge shortly after you made the changes to your Grow environment (Bulbs, pH pen). As the weeks progress after the initial insult to the plant, the Increased wattage and temperature began burning your leaves as demonstrated with the darkening color and crispy textures that soon became Yellow/Light brown. The damage to the leaves significantly impaired your plants energy production causing the flowers to stall out compared to previous gains. The appearance of Banana's as you have described further indicates excessive plant stress that is causing hermaphrodite'ing - At this point, I am sorry to say but You might have already lost the Battle.

@HydroHermit, thanks for the reply. I have had this happen a number of times and always in week 5-6 of flower. I started flower with 1/2 then 3/4 and to full strength feeding in week 5 of the feed chart. I am interested to see what happens with the LEDs, it will give me space to move my lights up and down. The 1000 hps is at the top of the tent and air cooled and appears to be too much. I have been wondering if it’s too much for while now. I did an experiment where I moved a nice green plant under the hps side and it yellowed in 2-3 days.

You gave them a nice economical shape how many branches do you " let them"...? iam going with the 3 branches technic and iam alwys courious to see how others do it

@Mrs_Larimar, I tried to prune to around 4-6 main tops each. I have 4 strains in there so some took to the plan better than others.

@@Athos,so you suggest more of a mainline/manifold rather than just topping and lst?

@SAC87, Check my diary Atomic. In that run I grew only 2 colas per plant; you can do something similar, let the plant grow to 5 nodes, then top back to the 3d node and remove the 1st node sideshots, that will give you 4 tops of similar height

@@Athos, my goal was to just have 4-6 main colas per plant, but every time I attempt this, my lower branches stretch up giving an uneven canopy. I’ve done lst on the taller tops, but it doesn’t seem to help. Idk what to do about that. Planning another Scrog of some mother’s next round so some tips would be great. Thanks for responding to my question.

@Cannibalgardens, thanks I didn't think I'd have so many to choose from. My cloning method was way more successful this time, 16/16. 👍
