07/06/2020: Today marks the start of the flower phase, I'll be switching to a 11/13 bloom schedule progressively, over 4 days (decreasing Lights-On time by 2h every day)
- Set up the lights to turn on at 8am instead of 6am (17/7 to 15/9 schedule).
- Noticed she was praying hard!
07/07/2020: She looked pretty sad before watering, probably due to the hot day we had yesterday
- Set up the lights to turn off at 9pm instead of 11pm (15/9 to 13/11 schedule).
- Watered with: 1.5 gallon of filtered water, pH 6.2 @78F , 10mL/gal TPS One, 3mL/gal Silica Gold and 2mL CalMag AOC.
- Cleaned her up a little bit, trying to expose the top sites to as much light as possible.
07/08/2020:
- Set up the lights to turn off at 7pm instead of 9pm (13/11 to 11/13 schedule). This gives my plants the wanted 11-13 bloom schedule (brings out more of the genetic expression)!
- Cleaned her up following Kyle Kushman's selective pruning technique, leaving as many leaves as possible while removing the new growth forming, keeping only the top 3 on each branch. Removing branches that would not be able to reach the upper canopy, I'll just throw those in the cloning machine.
- Also "supercropped" her, again, following Kyle Kushman's plant chiropractics. I figured why not.
- Moved the light up a little bit.
07/10/2020:
- Watered with: 1.5 gallon of filtered water, pH 6.2 @80F , 10mL/gal TPS One, 3mL/gal Silica Gold and 3mL CalMag AOC.
- Starting to add crunched-up dried leaves to the top of my soil as I start defoliating the plant. Over time this will create a mulch layer and hopefully feed a bit of mycelium for soil health.
- Put up the trellis net to spread the tops out and give light to the whole canopy (the Katsu Pupil isn't reaching it yet), the main 4 top sites were sticking out maybe 4-5" above the rest.
- Added plant trays to collect the run-off water (I can't believe I've waited this long to get them, now I don't have to spend 20min cleaning all the runoff from the floor of my tent with a sponge anymore...)
07/11/2020:
- Pruned another few branches that would just produce larf if it stayed.
- Tied a couple of the branches to the trellis net to have a nice and even canopy.
Overall, quite a busy week with the tapered flip to flower, but the plants are still looking healthy!
I had planned to not use a SCRoG net again, but I'd have 20+ pieces of string if I wanted to just tie her down, the trellis net just made it quick and easy.
