We've got a bit of a naughty monkey on our hands. She stopped growing at the top with no new growth in sight. In an attempt to salvage the situation, I've bent her over with the hope that the side branches growing above the first node will take over and grow up. Finger crossed 🤞Shout out to @GreenMachine for the suggestion. The air filter issues I was having earlier were are related to the ultrasonic humidifier I introduced to the tent. Stupid me ran it with tap water and as a result it was throwing off white dust which quickly clogged my carbon filter. Another le$$on learned. I replaced the filter and air is moving as it should again. Will use demineralized water in the humidifier from here on in but I have it shut down for the moment. ------ Day 19: the new growth looks normal and now developing as expected but with two distinct stalks growing now - it looks like this plant has topped itself! She seems happy - feeding well and growing.

Good luck with this grow! I've been wanting to try this strain for a while.. heard a lot of good things.

Hey man, it looks almost the same but I don't think I would try to split it because the leaf blades are not separate on yours. I would gently bend it over so that first node can get more light and those little branches will start growing up. Once you get some good leaves on those then you can see if you should top it or not
Wicked_Stix
Wicked_Stixcommented5 years ago
@stunflower, she looks great. I figured those branches would shoot up since the top kinda smothered itself out. I think this will actually improve your yield in the end. Just watch the branches and periodically tie the dominant one down to keep a nice even canopy. 2 to 3 weeks and you will be set up for a nice flower session if she continues to cooperate like she is now

@Wicked_Stix, Looks like she's going to be fine. It's like she topped herself - she seems to be developing as expected now but with two main stems. Thanks again for your advice. 👍
Wicked_Stix
Wicked_Stixcommented5 years ago
@stunflower, No problem. Once you get it bent those little side branches will become dominant and grow up pretty quick

https://niagaraseedbank.com/ is the most affordable seed bank I've found that delivers seeds from top breeders in the OG packaging - highly recommend them (no affiliation). This is the first time I've seen their house brand be grown. I'll be watching with interest. Grow little monkey! 😀

@EhlersChick, LOL! Great video. Twiggy hasn't really shown much interest in the fan leaves beyond giving them a sniff. Your kitty is a connoisseur!
EhlersChick
EhlersChickcommented5 years ago
@stunflower, Hey I see you have a little floor manager too! Does Twiggy like eating the fan leaves? Mine can't get enough - I have to keep him away from the grow area because the little bugger will chew the tips off all the lower leaves! Check him out: growdiaries.com/diaries/21261-shishkaberry-medical-clones 😂

@NuggetPawn, Thanks, NP! Looking forward to taking you up on the no-defoliation challenge for my next run. The article you referenced in one of your diaries was very enlightening. I'll give science a shot 😉

@stunflower, haha, sometimes the freaks are the best!
StunFlower
StunFlowercommented5 years ago
@MrGreenFingers, No. The plant stopped growing at the top after the 3rd set of leaves formed (week 2) and the only new growth was one set of leaves above the first node. I pulled the plant over following the advice of @Wicked_Stix and those little side branches became dominant - she essentially topped herself. I topped each of the resulting 2 stems once (week4) and she's spawned the 11 tops you see now (I broke one 😕) I wish all my plants would start this way.

I've found this strain doesn't need as much food as the manufacturers recommend. Half dose seems like too much for my ape as well..

Beast roots! Good looking nugs on there. Have you sampled the goods yet?
StunFlower
StunFlowercommented5 years ago
@MountainMatt, Timely question. I just checked on her drying and cut a bud to sample. Given she's had no cure at all, I was quite surprised how tasty she was - you can certainly taste the fruity, grape flavour come through in the vaporizer. She also packs more of a wallop than I was expecting - nice, heavy indica stone. Just the way I like it. 👍
