The plants are stretching in their early flowering stage atm. The canopy is still pretty even though. I’ve pulled a few early starters back down, but I think I’m done with training them now. I’ve also stopped foliar spraying. The buds are really forming after 2nd week of flowering.
The defoliating continues as well. Big fan leaves first. Starting top down. I’m just trying to open up as much bud growth as possible at this stage. I might be a believer though...
The soil ph has crept up to 7.5. Nutrient TDS is currently ~1000. I’m feeding 12ml per litre Biobizz nutes every second day... Maybe I’m pushing it too far? I’m not waiting around to find out this time. PhDown ordered.
Despite the ph concern, this grow looks really green and vigorous. No leaf issues, apart from maybe a few thin pointy growths on one plant. I’ll look into that.
I’m at least half way. This strain is meant to be ready in as little as 10 weeks. That is with a short 2 week veg. I think this will be a 12 week grow, given the flowering didn’t really start until the 4th week. I let the first grow go too long at 15 weeks.
@Mackinnon, I’ll LST my next plants but I don’t think I’ll top an auto again. That was the most vigorous plant and should have been the biggest producer.
@Lucidite, still a good yield though!!
Your grow diary is the reason I wanna try either lst or topped next grow , same strains!
Maybe only 4 plants this time tho
@Mackinnon, just did the the topped plant. 2.1oz. Not what I would have thought. I think the last one will be close to 3oz. That wouldn’t be much different than the first grow!
