And away We Grow. Running Fast Buds Blackberry. I only Plan to Defoliate as necessary. Using General Hydroponics Grow Trio with GalMag Plus and Hyrdoguard. Will be using Liquid KoolBloom in early Flower and Beastie Bloomz in later Flower. Growing in 5 Gal. Buckets. Grow space is 3'x3'x6'.
End of Week 3 into Week 4 n She's Growing Nicely. Growing Tall with Wide Node Spacing. Started to LST Her to keep Her Height under control. Her First Pistils have appeared so for this Week's Water Change I Fed Her at 1/2 Dosage for "Transition to Bloom" according to GHE Recommendation and gave Her a Light Dosage of Liquid KoolBloom. She also received Full CalMag Plus and Hydroguard Doses.
Rolling through another Week. She's Growing well with no Issues to Note. I continue to LST Her to try n keep the Canopy even. She's Growing Long so We'll see how that effects Bud Development. Pistils are still Forming but no Buds yet so She'll get another Transition Feeding this Week at 1/2 Dosage with Full CalMag Plus n Liquid KoolBloom. Hoping for some Stretching soon.
Another Week of Good Growth. No Issues or Deficiencies. Clipped a few Lower Branches n Shoots. Pistils still Developing so I'll give Her One more Week of Full Dosage "Transition" Feeding with Full CalMag Plus and Liquid KoolBloom.
End of Week 6 into Week 7 and She's Striding. She's Shot Up over the Past Week. She's Long but not Leafy at all so that should make the Trim Job Easier. Waiting for Bud Development and that Beautiful Purple Hue She's known for. She'll get One Last "Transition" Feeding at Full Dosage with CalMag but I'm Changing from the Liquid KoolBloom to the Beastie Blooms for the Rest of the Grow.
End of Week 7 into Week 8. She seems to have Stopped Her Stretch and Started on Bud Development. They're Barely Forming but I can already see the Purple. She'll be Moving on to "Bloom and Ripening" Feeding at Full Dosage with Full CalMag Plus n Beastie Bloomz. another 3-5 Week n She should be Ready.
Another Week of Slow Growth. She's Stopped Stretching and Buds are still Developing so We'll see how it Grows from Here. The Week's Feeding was another "Bloom n Ripen" Feeding at Full Dosage with Full CalMag Plus and Liquid KoolBloom.
It looks like a case of maybe excess of nitrogen.. She didn't develop a very strong structure at the vegetation.. And she didn't have the strength to develop some big Buds.
After Input from the Community I've Decided on NO Nutrients for a few Days to let Her Recover from Her Suspected Nitrogen Toxicity. If She Recovers like I Hope She'll get One more Feeding of Beastie Bloomz only before a Final Flush as I Suspect only a Few Weeks before She's ready to Harvest.
Little Development over the last Week. She'll just get PH'd Water until Harvest. Pistils are Turning so I have no reason to Expect more than 2 more Weeks. Another Disappointing Yield awaits but more Lessons Learned.
