✋Wk 6: Soaking up rays and consuming the nutrients. Algae remediation and proactive pest control. 👉The noticeable growth every time I look into the tent continues. Today is day 47 total, Day 14 flower for the 1 gallon and Day 2 flower for the 3 gallon. The stats for the diary are for the 3 gallon plant. My main cola is my focus for both plants. I want the main colas to be really good big buds. The secondary branches are not being neglected however. I will be supporting each branch as it needs it for good light and later on for weight support when the bud hopefully are good and big. With two plants in the tent, things may get crowed as the are both touching in the center and touching the tent on the outside already(4x4 tent). I will move them into corner positions this week so they will have a little more elbow room. When I started the grow I was hoping the 1 gallon would be a miniature plant if I gave it weaker strength nutrient solution. But the plants genetics have decided my plan is stupid. The 3 gallon plant also decided to flip me the finger and be a different phenotype as its younger sibling. Maybe one day Ill learn to grow small 'cute' plants. 👉The one gallon is stretching and forming the colas. I haven't had to do much tucking to help the lower branches find light. I have taken some of the shaded, interior leaves, and a couple interior secondary branches. I will do small amount of selective pruning of secondary growth nodes or branches. The way it has stretched shows promise that I might not have to time any main branches. 👉The first pistols appeared on the 3 gallon yesterday. Its growth nodes are primed and ready to start forming colas. The structure of the 3 Gallon is a dense bush. I can hardly tell what is going on in the interior of the leaf dome. I have been tucking leaves to expose the lower branches reaching up to the light. I have taken some of the inner leaves that were totally shaded, small or malformed. I have also taken some small secondary branches from the interior. I have more to do with its interior to help reduce larf, but its so dense its really hard to get a great look at whats going on. When it starts stretching in the next couple of weeks I'll be able to get a better look. If the plant stays short enough I might not have to take any main branches, but its way to early to know that for certain. 👉During the week I switched the 1 gallon to week 5 of the General Hydroponics Flora series drain to waste schedule, and week 4 for the 3 gallon. I have had no issues with the EC rising above +30 of the inflow. Infact, the EC has been remaining below the inflow EC. You can see my fertigation log This is a little unusual, but nothing to worry about. It means the nutrients are being consumed. nothing is building up. Usually one or two low EC/high volume fertigations are needed per week to keep the build of nutrients in check. Part of the lack of build up is I probably don't have enough breeze blowing around the pots, so not as much evaporation. The lack of breeze is evident with the 3 gallon plant as the green algae has begun to build up. I have been hesitant to be cleaning the side much as the roots have been poking thru and didnt want to disturb them yet. I have started to clean one section at a time by using a washcloth and just wiping as much as I can off the side. Then I spray it with some H2O2 solution from a pressurized sprayer with a strong stream. This helps rinse off the algae. Then I do a small rinse just down the side of the section with low EC solution. The runoff pan is a green gloopy mess when done and a few of my white wash cloths are green too. I rinse the runoff trays out with the pressurized H2O2 spray tank, then wipe them dry with clean white cloths. I also wipe the floor of the tent with a wet wash cloth soaked withe the H2O2 solution. I pour the runoff into plastic water bottles and dispose of them by pouring them onto the lawn. In the warmer months I would pour the no algae laden runoff into my garden plants (basil, oregano, peppers and tomatoes) I never pour the runoff into the drains of my house. I feed the marigold with run off once a day. This marigold is a clone from my first marigold, and I will clone it very soon. 👉I have the marigold in the tent to combat fungus gnats and other pest...its rated as one of the best natural pest barriers for things like gnats, white flies, aphids etc...however it also attracts spider mites. The good part of that is that the spider mites would go to the marigold before they move on to the cannabis. I inspect the marigold routinely looking for pests. I haven't had spider mites...yet, but I have had fungus gnats when I didn't have marigolds and they disappeared almost immediately when the marigold was introduced to the tent. To combat the threat of spider mites I treat the room around the tent with normal household insecticides before I start growing. I spray the outside of the tent with neem oil also. Again I only treat the grow area between plants, never while they are growing. I also have No Pest Strips in the room the tent is in and replace them regularly. These no pest strips are barrier deterrents and not insecticides. If I ever do have pest issues I will never spray any chemicals or neem oil on my plants. There are plenty of microbial and naturally safe ways to remediate them. I am fully prepared to trash any plant than gets infested during flower. But I am taking almost every precaution I can think of to make sure this doesn't happen. But its really not a question of if it will happen...just when...and I have had a lot of practice with my outdoor herbs and veggies so I hope I can remedy any incursions and still get good big buds.

How do you describe this "natural engineering" work? That's a size of stem that I only see on outdoor plants, that take months on veg. Gratz!!!
Weird_Jimmy
Weird_Jimmy
@Psilocubensis, Thanks! Both plants here have large base stems, and their branches are the sturdiest of the few plants Ive grown since starting this great hobby. Im sure it has more to do with mother nature than my handy work.

I found you because of comments you made towards DoctorPhilGood and yes there are actually a "group" of us who don't believe in flushing and I/we don't do a lot of Defoliation. Your totally right about people taking it too far and hurting their numbers. Anyway gonna follow along now and see how she turns out for you.

Some massive colas on that lady. Beautiful ones too. Spectacular work growmie. Keep doing what it is you've been doing and may the ganja garden gods give you good fortunes until the end
