Week 7 of Flower (Day 49-56)
- Nothing too crazy to report in this week other than I still haven't really figured out what that extra growth on the top of a few of the buds are
- some have suggested it as being a nanner but I completely disagree
- I inspected the growth and it just seems to be like an extra off shoot of the flower, there is no pod or sack, nothing like that
- pistils are starting to curl on the lower branches so she's beginning her maturity
- ramped down the EC during this week and fluctuated the PH levels slightly
- started flushing with plain PH'd water midway through the week in anticipation of taking her to about 67 days, which would be right in the middle of the recommended 9-10 weeks (63-70 days)
- have to leave the plants for the long weekend so I'm a little nervous about that as they won't be watered for 3 days!
- Just have to maintain for a few more weeks, everything going smoothly
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
