The leaves are looking very dark green so I backed off the nutrient levels. Just gave ph'd water today. Also the stems are very purple. I add epsom salt but it doesn't seem to help.
@ignesfatui interesting techniques. so you plant it by the edge of the planter and leaning to one side causing the new nodes to point up? Also how do you like that perfect sun mini I've been eyeing one for years now?
@Floresdejesus, I have the dwarf star and the mini. I got fatter denser nugs under the mini compared to the dwarf star even though the plant was smaller. The mini seems to have a slightly less purplish hue. I recommend it big time, it's stronger than it says on the site It's so bright you have to have it further away than recommended or you'll get damage on the leaves and yes I have the plant on one side of the pot and keep the main stalk parallel to the substrate. The side branches will grow as tall as the main cola. I LST to the limit like really bending it down and tightening it almost every day and put plastic lids under the leaves that touch the substrate. Did something similar to a blueberry photo period which I had to toss because I wanted to grow autos. On the blueberry I LST like this but topped it once it got to the other end of the pot causing massive amounts of side shoots.
9 weeks total into this grow with 4 weeks of bloom and things are looking stunning :)
Some nice size buds developing and the colour is spectacular :)
Thank you for the diary update mate things look great :)
All the best
Mark..
Nice job on the training my friend :)
That is definitely going to help more light through to those lower branches which should help in overall bud production when the time comes :)
I'm all caught up now my friend and will be along for the ride and watching with interest :)
All the best

I would get that flush started with hopes to harvest in the next 10-14 days depending on how you want your high which then will depend on trichome colour :)
Beautiful colour and some big fat buds which are very close to harvest :)
Thank you for the diary updated mate and I'll drop back in on the next :)
All the best

@DinafemSeeds, that's my plan! I've been checking the thichomes and they still look clear. Already started
The flush. I'm going trim the buds extra carefully and cure and dry them in a perfectly controlled environment. This is the exact strain I've always wanted to grow, high cbd.
