Pretty excellent week, all of my seedlings have bounced back apart from one. She still is exhibiting Cal-Mag issues. So I am dosing her daily to hopefully work her through this deficiency.
All the ladies have shown outstanding growth this week, they are starting to show their 5th and 6th node, all have nice thick stems from foliar feeding them with Rhizotonic, this is an excellent pro tip. Rhizotonic is expensive, but it's not if you use it as a foliar spray, you get the same results with only using a quarter the volume you would if you dose your reservoir. The same with Cal-Mag, spray the leaves to get quick results, dose the res to maintain.
I have also increased the nutrient dose to 0.9, in a couple of days I will increase that again to 1.0, The girls are responding well, I'm getting some really good growth out of them daily. The light is still on 50% Im not really interested in increasing that as they do not need it at 100% during vege. These Electric Sky ES300 are on another level, I've grown with HPS, MH and other LED's but this light is outperforming everything.
Check out my current grow, Bloodyskunk and Blackberry on insta the flowers are amazing: https://www.instagram.com/danksquared_/
@Fast_Buds, thank you for the follow. I recently emailed you guys some of my images from my other grow you guys requested from my insta account. I hope you enjoy them.
I'm sry but this is not main-lining. You topped your plants and now you lst them. What you are doing is way to much stress for automatics. Proof me wrong but i garantee you not more than 2 g. Automatics have a to short lifespan. Good luck
@@ShotGunBob, hey there. This technique is a manifold which I choose to use 4 branches instead of the classic 2. This does not cause any plant stress, that my friend is an urban myth. My last run which you can see here: https://www.instagram.com/danksquared_/ . This grow was in one of my 2x4 tents which was loaded with big healthy plants that blossomed some very very nice flowers. Check it out, the proof is in the pudding as they say.
I only kept two branches instead of the 4 here. Mainlining and manifolding are basically the same thing, lst is simply another term for training or tying down a branch. Which has been used by gardeners for 100s of years.
Automatics do have a short lifespan if you let them grow from seed to finish, however if you employ Mainling techniques you can hold that auto flower in veg for as long as you want. As you can see by the link i posted, I held the Blackberry and Bloodyskunk in veg for 7.5 weeks, which is nearly the usual lifespan of letting a Auto grow from start to finish.
Do check out my Insta, there are some beautiful photos of Auto's being given low lifespans.
