Week 2 of flowering has gone great...small hiccups that i didn't necessarily plan ahead for like several tall branches that had wiggled out of their LST. However it all turned out for the positive because it gave me a good opportunity to practice more HST and super crop another 3 branches.
I'm slowly learning to love super cropping. Normally when a plant gets into flowering your training options get less and less, but even my slightly woody, stiff stems were able to be pinched and bent without any breakages.
The plant is really trying to put on pistils now and grew several inches this week. Hopefully she will able to maintain this shorter height and the HST sites not grow back straight.
Happy growing everyone,
Thanks for all the support. βοΈ

@Experimentgreen, hmm good question. I'd try a bit of an experiment and try 1 in each, nutrient rich and 1 in not so hot soil. See if that makes a difference?

I've had a recent similar experience with twisted leaves. Twisting is typically associated with pH being out of range at the roots or potentially a genetic trait.

HazeyBobbycommented5 years ago
@Experimentgreen, I would love to find a solution to this ... may never get there :) .. by the way, I'm currently learning about VPD and what it means to cannabis - humidity seems to be critical when temps are high (>23*C) ... the curling up of your leaves may well be due to the very low RH levels. I keep trays of water in my tent with a fan blowing on it for evaporation (went from 40 -> 65%), never had success with a humidifier since I don't have RO or distilled water to use in it. And yes, low light always causes some irritation. If only we were looked after so well as these plants :) good luck.

@HazeyBobby, i picked up some more calibration powder and then pen seems "accurate " but I can't help but feel it's still off... I probably need to upgrade to a better one, just for peace of mind.
I think the plant might also be a little irritated by the low light levels too, but I need to wait for some space to free up in my tent.

Yep Ur right - thatβs a cal mag deficiency showing on those leaves with the rusty spots. Calcium to be specific for sure. I wouldnβt try to correct this though - your so far along in flower that I wouldnβt expect any major issues to result from it with the time left. I assume sheβs only got a couple more weeks. Buds look gorgeous EGπ. Best of luck to the finishππ€π

@TheBudWhisperer,
Thanks Bud,
I've had a few wild colored leaves popping up recently, but i did find out my ph pen was off by a whole point. I think I got it all fixed up now though so hopefully these are just some leaves that got the shock last and everything will clear up now.
The ph in my areas tap water tends to fluctuate through the year. In January it was coming in around 7.6-8 but now it's dropped down to like 6.8 so I was watering it with wicked low #s without realizing it.
I'm excited for this one to finish...definitely a strain I'd recommend trying if you got the chance. It's been a crazy strong and resilient plant.
Thanks for all the kind words. π

Hi, buddy,
Thank you for sharing a new diary with our 100% organic, mostly vegan product line.
Sorry for the late entry, we are unfortunately fully occupied with the bottling process and the supply due to the extreme delivery delays of the bottle manufacturer, which have been going on since March this year.
We wish you maximum success with our products and are looking forward to the final result with your Blue Monkey Grow.
If you have any questions, please contact us via the chat.

@Treighfunky, lol it's so true. The thought of lifting those 7-10 gallon pots just pisses me right off. I just need to remember to power off the purple lights and turn on something white/yellow for the photos.
This plant definitely exceeded my expectations though...so if you get the chance, grow the blue monkey.
