Kalashnikova forced flower outdoor

https://growdiaries.comShooey · 2019-10-24 10:27:17

Given that I planted to early in the season and the plant flowered early, the Kalashnikova really adapted well to the force flowering by light deprivation. To get such a nice yield outside, with purely organic nutrients in only 11 weeks from seed is really impressive. This is a hardy strain for outdoor and a credit to Green House. I recommend this strain to anyone growing outdoors in a sub tropical environment

You have any idea why it flowered so quickly? I've had similar results recently that I kinda think I have figured out.

@Shooey, Hey, if you wanted some additional notes, you might want to check out using like a tea/amending soil with fruits that produce a lot of erythritol. It'll likely influence flowering. Though it's a bit unclear in what way.

@Shooey, Yep, I had roughly the same results with some other, technically, commercial seeds (got sent some seeds by HSO). About the same time (end of winter/start spring, a bit before you planted yours), same hemisphere. However, my non-commercial local unknown/wild/offspring seeds planted at the same time have been growing much better (in terms of not flowering instantly). Also, I think a lack of rain and very carboniferous soil (can produce somewhat excessive ethylene which boosts and possibly helps trigger flowering) contributed to that. I suspect that, coz luckily, I had soil variation with one of those and the one in less carbon-rich soil compared to others in carbon-rich soil is definitely growing for longer. Here are some comparison pics (planted at the same time): 1. Not so carbon-rich soil, offspring: https://growdiaries.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/static/post/photo/19262/1484668_continuation-of-first-growcustomsativa-dominant-hybrids.jpg 2.

Also, I had a bunch of plants planted around start of winter here in the southern hemisphere, a lot of them still fowering (or would be if I didn't harvest some of them completely) so I'm pretty sure it's not just lighting.

Hi - how are you checking you trichome?

Shooeycommentedweek 85 years ago

Hi there. I had the problem of my plant flowering outside very early as you can see in my diary. I contacted greenhouse thinking I may have got auto by mistake but they are positive I did not. They believe I planted too early in the season as my plant was 4 weeks old before the time between sunrise and sunset extended to 12 hours. I accepted this because I also had a Jack Herer planted at the same time which was not flowering. Now 4 weeks later the jack has begun to flower! Do you recommend leaving and hoping it goes back to Veg? Or should I begin feeding bloom nutrients and assume it will finish out. Thank you. Shooey,, 👍
