Aug 2: these two plants don’t seem to need much water. The nearby Wonder Pie is way smaller and yet sucks back way more water.
Both these plants seem very happy and are getting quite big. 😎
Aug 5: added bamboo stakes around the perimeter of both plants and then connected them using foam covered gardening wire. This makes a stable but flexible ‘skirt’ to provide support for the branches. They’re getting pretty long and hopefully soon to be heavy so it was time for some support. We can get heavy thunderstorms here in the summer (so far so good) and I don’t want to lose any limbs to storm damage.
Plants are still growing at about an inch per day.
@Pokan187, thanks. This one is from several seasons ago, but yeah it was a pretty good. Boveda are fine, but humidity packs are a commodity biz so I just buy whatever is the best deal. Humidity packs are totally worth it by the way…worth the minor price.
@Northern_Ent,Ha brilliant dude thank you really.. Here I was half expecting a weird stupid answer and you come up with something intelligent very cool. Much Respect brother... I use a product to achieve the same kind of idea but very cool of you to think outside the box..
@DeadwebsiteBoringcommunity, I agree it sounds silly but the soap lowers the surface tension of the water which means that it is better able to penetrate the leaves. Science, or at least wishful thinking. 😎. Pesticide formulations often use the same trick to deliver their active ingredients. I was reminded of it buying some fancy peat based medium that mentioned using a “wetting agent” which is just a surfactant which is just soap.
@Epokwan, the breeder calls them Superautos. They did start flowering early, and will finish in time, but wow what a long winded plant. Absolutely gorgeous though and the Panama Lime testers are really nice. I likely found it on Seedsman using their search filters.
Looks awesome! I think my plants are growing at about the same pace as yours, I'm only in week 4 though, hoping to see the same things as you've got goin on
@siz3thr33, thanks, I’m excited about these ones. Your California Snow look good, but you’re likely a bit early with the bloom nutes. Your day 21 pic show you’re still in vegetative growth so they need a fertilizer with more N than PK to grow big.
My plants also seem to like getting a bit of molasses every week or so throughout the grow. Make sure its unsulphured blackstrap molasses which is cheap at the grocery store. 😎. Good luck.
