'Do Si Dos' by i49

Do-Si-Dos is weird! Interesting little plant. Nothing wrong with her, I just haven't encountered a pheno like this yet. Tight, busy and thick specimen. Interested to see how/where she goes. The Good: -Healthy and seemingly happy. Extremely strong main stem and lateral branches. She doesn't push far but what she gives is structurally sound. -Tap flush at 6.3pH with some Cal-Mag has rectified some concerning readings that I had witnessed last week. Went from a 4.8-5.1pH (BAD) and 1800ppm to 5.5-5.6pH and 1600ppm. It's not perfect but it's a good start. Two more consecutive feeds and/or flushes at 6.2/6.3pH should raise her back to optimal readings. -LST going very well, but she is hard to train with all her bushiness. After transplant to 5 gallon and one more feed I will be defoliating and pruning to open her up a little bit and focus her energy on the tops I'll be choosing to keep. The Bad: -Nothing really bad, just working on leveling out my runoff's. All the girls were treated the same. Same soil, schedule, feedings, training etc... but she's the only one pulling these odd numbers. Blue Cookies was a bit off too, but not nearly as bad as DSD. Fingers crossed I can come back to an optimal pH level in the next couple weeks. The 'Meh': -Fungal gnat problem exists, still, but is completely under control for now. Details on methods used to mitigate their propagation listed in "Northern Lights Week 6". Continued maintenance and a watchful eye makes me confident that this will probably still exist but won't be detrimental to the plants. They have not been allowed to establish themselves and catching it very early was my saving grace. -She's the runt, but she may still surprise me. She will eventually have to be propped up and will probably always be noticeably smaller then her counterparts. Actually interested in how this girl will play out. I figured she was going to be a big girl and easy to grow, but that just isn't the case. Thanks for reading! Happy Grows to you all and Happy Holidays. No matter where you are or what you celebrate, I wish you peace and calm. Cheers my friends.
