Day 43 from seed: continuing to LST as the plants grow. The new tops from the 2nd round of topping are slowly growing. I'll LST them as well when they are a bit longer. So far, so good! Thinking I'll be in veg for this full week and likely 1-2 more weeks before switching to Flower.
Day 44: tucked some larger leaves to let light into the tighter areas of the plants. Getting quite bushy now. I'm. It sure if I should keep the original spikes in place or let everything grow up a bit. I'll let the new growth go for a few more days and tie down as necessary. Plants appear to be healthy as I'd hope them to be! There's an occasional leaf marking here or there and a few new growth leaves are rounded off kinda funny, but everything else seems fine. Loving the smell every time I open the tent!
Day 45: Gave daily URB foliar spray. Removed the LST spikes to let some upward growth. Also tucked quite a few fan leaves to let some lower covered branches get more light. Since this is considered 'late veg', I turned on the BLOOM switch on the LED, so now all 3 switches are on for full power. Fed water/urb/cal-mag today and a cal-mag foliar spray hours later.
Day 46: did some major LST this morning. I hooked paper clips into the sides of the cloth pots and used plant twist ties to spread some branches out. I also tucked most of the fan leaves. Almost 7 hours later, they are recovering nicely growing up toward the light. I'll be putting the screen on in the next few days to start the scrog training.
Day 47: did a little more tying down this morning and gave Urb foliar spray and a cal-mag foliar spray 6 hours later. Tomorrow will be feeding day. I put the scrog screen in place but not sure I should keep it that low just yet.
Day 48: fed a full feeding to runoff and checked ph and everything is just fine. Moved the screen to about 6" above the soil. Swiss cheese seems to be a bit taller, so this will be interesting as they continue to grow.
Day 49: happy new year! Plants continue to bush out and are almost touching th screen now. I was able to move one leaf set to another square.
Thank you! I am somewhat sad that they will soon be chopped down, but I am looking forward to enjoying the fruits of my labor! This was a looooooong grow!
@gdogfunk,
Hello i just harvested some and its incredible... I can smell creamy sweet spoiled cheese... almost like diarrhea.. No joke.. Sweet shit literally
Dang! This is an excellent GD! From beginning to current! You ladies are looking amazing and I'm sure all the prep you did to get this beautiful canopy will result in some fantastic Buds! Well done 😄
@gdogfunk, Are you kidding right?!!! This Garden is primed for nothing less than a great Harvest!! You've done the leg-work... Now sit back and let your Ladies show off how much they appreciate all you've done for them 😀
You are near the end nice !
What a good job with this scrog, I really like it ( growdiaries love it too ! because they just posted it on instagram héhé 👍😊👌 )
good luck with the flush my friend 👌
@Herbalize, Thank you! I didn't know about the instagram post, thanks for the heads up! I'm ready to sample the fruits of my labor, that's for sure! :)
Wow! holy fantastic canopy, that is looking killer. Other than faster maturation, have you noticed any other big differences between outdoor and indoor? Grow Happy!
@TheMachinist, Thank you! It's hard to compare to my outdoor grows since this is the first time I've ever payed attention to a regular feeding regimen and keeping such a tight schedule with water/feeding and pH, temp and RH. My outdoor grow, while was the best for my outdoor attempts, pales in comparison to this canopy. I've done a ton of research this entire grow and I believe it's going to pay off :) I can't wait to smoke them!
@HLG_Israel, I did some trimming today deep under the canopy, but I can't really get to anything else at the moment. I will also do a leaf trim at the end of week 3.
@HLG_Israel, thank you! I'm excited to flip to Flower tomorrow or Sunday. They already smell great so I can only imagine what they will smell like in a few weeks!
