- a really interesting observation I made at the end of this week was a small yellow flower appearing at the top of 2 colas under the strongest part of light
- I believe this is due to foxtailing but this is only a guess
- I moved the light up a few inches to avoid any negative effects from the foxtailing if that indeed what is happening
- EC was flushed down at the start of this week as run off was showing a high EC reading
- typically I flush by adding only CalMag to water, adjusting the PH and then feeding at double the amounts but this time I just flushed with PH'd water as to not throw off the PH at root level
- high EC due to a bit of neglect on my part by not having time to check level and flush accordingly
- I've pushed this girl with the nutes, I must admit and you can see it in the tips of the leaves
- probably went a little high with the Bloom Booster (KoolBloom) but she took it and seems to have benefited
- PH levels were fluctuated this week as well going from 6.3 to 5.8 and then back up over the week
- I like to do this often in my grows but also because I know the plants benefit from Manganese in the flowering stage and this is absorbed by the plants at lower PH levels (5.8)
- shes coming along nicely! Will most likely take her the full 10 weeks due to the fact that the pistils haven't curled in yet and calyx's haven't swelled much yet
- flush will begin next week
Can you identify this small yellow flower coming out of the top? Is this a 'nanner'? Foxtailing?? It appears under the 2 colas that are underneath the strongest part of my LED. Light/heat stress? I looked at it closely and it's not a pod or anything.. just an extended growth.
Let's say you're flushing a plant with plain PH'd water 2 weeks before the breeders reco finishing time but she doesn't finish and keeps going.. Do you feed with more nutrients again or just keep going with the water only?
I wouldn't even flush, since all evidence about flushing is anecdotal, only perceived experience no hard evidence, so in my opinion just keep it going, if you want a true flush rip her from the ground at the end and set in a vase with only water.
Hello. You have a plan. Stick to the plan. Did you take a clone? Try flowering your next grow longer. If you've flushed, and near the end you need to harvest. Looks great by the way. Good Luck. Chuck.
@Belverde, Thanks for the comment. I'm really excited about this one. From what I've seen from Barney's Farm genetics I think this will be another strong performer if I can get the training done correctly. Will be my first attempt! I will remember not to fly a plane after smoking π Cheers!π
@TonyTrichomes, And rightly so!! π. It must feel so refreshing knowing you don't have to worry about a crazy law for a plant!!! Enjoy it all my friend πΏ
@Bushbaby808, I feel your pain bud.. Hang in there and hopefully one day things will change where you live. When they passed the laws here for legal growing I jumped all over it! Oh Canada!!
@Bushbaby808, Cheers! Ya man this is my first time trying out the popping & twisting (HST) on the stems and I really think she's benefited greatly from it! I did not notice the same reaction from the other strain I am simultaneously growing beside her but that strain has a bit more sativa dominance in terms of plant structure and just happens to be a lot more tall and skinny.
Looking great man. I've got one of these ladies in her last week of flower. I'm real excited. I found her really sensitive to pretty much anything. She didn't like a lot of nutes and suffered with calmag issues in mid flower when the others in the tent didn't. She smells unreal so I'm sure she will be worth the extra attention. Good luck with the grow mate π
