This week the girls graduated from "baby food" to full manufacturer's suggested nutrient doses. In case I didn't mention it before, I've bought in on the whole Cyco line of products and purchased the Cyco Platinum Series w/ Grow XL, and I bought Ryzo Fuel because it didn't come in the kit.
The young ladies split 2 gal. of full strength nutrients between them this week. Once on 10/21, then they received nothing until 10/14 when they split 2 gal. between the three of them again. They were able to live on that nicely through the rest of the week.
Unfortunately when I was using my shop-vac to clean up the run-off from feeding I the aluminum foil tore and I had to remove the tray I had added. I'm able to keep everything else the same but because the tent is in a carpeted closet the caddies are still rolling around on covered carpet which makes it a little difficult to roll the caddies when necessary. I saw rolls of reflective diamond foil on Amazon and am going to give that a go for covering the tray.
Nice job! Do you thinking about use scrog? At my second time growing I used scrog and It was very good I think, but I'm thinking about make like you. Why you don't have big leaves? I have a lot of these.. Take a look on my diary if u can, what do you think?I used cyco, and barney's farm seeds too haha, Thanks!
@Kreewl, thank you. 😀 Yes, I have been thinking of trying scrog but I wanted to compare my 1st grow and 2nd grow with only a little bit of change to see where I made improvements and how much it would help.
I took my big fan leaves off so the light can get thru and for better air flow.
@ThrashedTV_BakedByGlaze, Thanks Dude! Even from my limited experience with them, I would definitely recommend the 2 strains I have grown from @Barneys...and hopefully will be expanding the recommendation to 3 strains grown. 😁
@BIGBUDZ450, It wasn't a conscious choice. I would have been happy with just the 24 hrs of dark but this' just the way it worked out...my timer shuts off @ 9pm...24 hrs would have turned them back on @ 9pm, which is "off" time.
Looking good. How do you think your fimming went? I just did mine yesterday for the first time on a plant from seed. I think I may have topped a couple instead of fim.
Thanks @MountainBudz, much appreciated.
I think the FIMming went well. The vertical growth slowed giving the rest of the branches to catch up to the rest of the plant(s) and now they're getting some nice growth on the main branch again. I guess I'll really get to see how well it went when I switch them to Flower at the end of the week.
