Day 22 - Starting week 4 and didn’t want to initially but because she seems to be doing good, I went ahead and started LST with her. Tied down the main stem and a couple other branches to try and get them out and away from the main stem. She’s doing ok from topping her so I think she’ll be just fine and recover nicely from the training.
Day 23 - Had to remove a couple giant fan leaves that were pretty much blocking everything below from getting light and now she looks so tiny. Hopefully the lower branches can start stretching now but wondering now if maybe the light is to powerful because I’m not getting much stretching from her. The lights are already 40” from the canopy but I’m just gonna let her go and see what happens. Gave her a good amount of water, until runoff. I haven’t been watering much to keep from overwatering so wanted to get water to the bottom of the pot so her roots can stretch down.
Day 25 - Looking pretty decent today but for some reason some of the branches that were tied down haven’t turned up to the light and not sure why, never had an issue with that before but re-tied a couple more that we’re reaching up to kind of keep her opened up. Next watering I will probably give her some veg nutes.
Day 26 - Looking a lot better now, I did some height adjustment on the light and it seemed to help and most tied down branches are reaching for the light but did re-tie a couple more down. Will wait for her to dry out then will give her a feeding of veg nutes since I’m not seeing any pistils yet. She’s still a bit light in color so guessing she’s needing some nitrogen in her.
Day 27 - Not much new today, gonna let her dry out just a bit more then will give her the first feeding of veg nutes.
Day 28 - The end of week 4 today and she’s looking a lot better than she was earlier in the week. Color is starting to darken up a little more and definitely not as pale. Will still give her a feeding of nutes next watering.
@that90skid171989, thanks bud. It took me a few grows to get my LST “technique” down but still have issues sometimes. Just depends on how she reacts I guess. I checked yours out and she’s looking pretty good.
wow a great result. I am in exactly the same position with taking till week 5 to start them flowering properly. My 1st auto grow after decades of photoperiods and am impressed with them. Beautiful smelling strain and I am on for a 12 week + I think. I use Megacrop and love it but one girl is in living organic soil and smells amazing. smaller in overall stature yet but smells much stronger. Well done on thisnone mate
