3/16:
Rain let up for half the day, but more tonight...damnit...
They are due for a watering tomorrow, but with the high RH, maybe not...
3/17:
They weren't ready for water yet, so I slept for a few bonus hours! (rare)
The tall one's biggest 3 colas are starting to thicken...they'll range from 14" to 18" in length. I'd like to see them get to 10" in circumference or better...π
Rained for most for the day....again...
3/18:
I watered them with about 1/2 gallon each including terpinator, signal, sweet & sticky, cal-mag, armor si, endoboost, humic acid, and a little cha ching. It rained all night again..and most of the day today. I took some photos with the qb's turned off and a 135w 5500k CFL on..
3/19:
It rained all night and several times again today...ffs....I've started building an Ark in my free time π
3/20:
Rained again on and off today..RH still too high...
3/21:
Rained again tonight..
I had to pick up a couple of them while removing a couple of other plants, and they are still heavy. I might be able to wait until Monday to feed again, which might be enough time for me to get the RH back down a little bit.
3/22:
Rained again last night several times...and again today for a couple hours...ridiculous. Woke up with RH at 65%!!!
Been chatting with other FFT growers and they all seem to be losing a lot of produce to botrytis...I'm starting to freak out..π³
πππ hope your plants survive occasional nibbling by Felis catus. I have Similar problem but the pest species is Canis lupus famliaris. πππ
@Med_in_Tropic,
I also have occasional problems with that pest species, but I fear most that one of the Equus around here should get near them....game over in a hurry!π
@Silverback_Guerilla, Iβm in Bangkok Thailand.
My people are from China three or four generations ago. My body still think had not adapted to the heat and I sweat like a hog in this weather.
@Med_in_Tropic, So, you are in the Tropics?
My people are from Canary Islands and Senegal, and N.W. Spain before that....and Ireland on the other side, but that's 3 and 4 generations ago.
Wow man. For a minute I thought you missed a week between 4 & 5 because the difference was so drastic. I came over after a search because I have the same test strain going. Yours are looking excellent. Stop and check mine out. I had a setback and decided to let them veg out an extra week or two.
@ThatoneAKguy, No doubt...there was some explosive growth that week.
Yes, they are looking great...excellent genetics for sure!πͺ
Good luck with yours!
@grower_not_shower just came over to my PE journal and called the growth between weeks 5 and 6 βfishyβ so
I thought Iβd tag him here to see your week 5 to 6 growth and see how fish that is lol.
@grower_not_shower,
One word for you...HYDRO!
Growing hydro is always faster than soil.
And...sometimes, growers won't have time to update their diaries on the same day each week, so the updates and photos might be 8 or 9 days apart.
And..some strains grow more explosively than others...
And...some plants grow faster than other same-strain plants...
And..some growers are just better than others...
Don't be a hater!
@ThatoneAKguy, Dude, you're just proving my point. Your grow was more advanced at week 5 than this is at week 7. My plants are at about the same size at the same age as this grow.
