Aug. 23rd: The girls are so flowering now and boy do they smell good now! We managed to keep the Squirts fairly short, but the Raspberry stretched like crazy, they have to be over nine feet tall now.
Aug. 27th: Found a lot of Aphids and decided it was time to release these little ladies to help!πππππππππ

Hey there π
Iβd top those beauties so they become bushy instead of tall. They will grow exponentially once in flower, so a bit of lst would do wonders after the topping
Happy Growing π±

Most definitely normal. They shroud themselves in the night it's called Foliar nyctinastyΒ it'sbelieved to conserve energy and help keep core temps warmer during nightfall.
Hipichicstarted grow question 4 years ago
Wondering if this one might be having some issues due to its coloring, is it a nutrient deficiency? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

Hi there!
The purple stems can be symptom of many things but some deficiencies can cause it, strong light (led atleast) and genetics too.
The plant is looking pretty happy so I'd say dont worry about ot too much yet. if something else starts to show then is time to act.

Typical hippy chick...huge bush!!!π
Did you decide to supercrop them, or just tie them down?
As lanky as they are, and as much "elbow room" as they have, you could just use some cotton or sisal twine and stake each branch down so that each branch is like the petal of a daisy. Every day you can move the stakes out a little further away until eventually the branches are growing almost horizontally. When they're all budded up, from above, it will look like a giant octopus plant.π²
If you accidentally split the stalk while bending them down, no worries...either use a dab of black tar (for tree repair) and twist-tie it together, sandwiching the tar, or even just some wood glue will do. If you use wood glue, apply it and let it dry..apply another layer...a few times..
This method is really common in Mexico and S. America where the cultivars get up to 15-20 feet. So much easier to maintain them than using a ladder....
Feed them silica if you aren't already. It will make their branches more pliable and flexible.π
Also, they are starting their pre-flower stretch now (they could double in height [or more] from this point), so it would be the perfect time to do it, and to amend your soil with some Happy Frog Cavern Culture or other bat/seabird guano/rock phosphate product. They'll be needing that phosphorous soon...
Keep it up, and don't forget to enter the Newbie of the Month contest after you do your harvest report....you definitely have a good shot at winning!π

@Hipichic, Ya for sure consider it. I've got a couple of plants now that I've trained into the shape of the letter S. Shaved off a foot of vertical height or so...
We do what we gotta do!
You should check out @Hellishjam 's outdoor grow for this season. That dude grows some serious trees. He's a supercropper, and it seems to keep his plants bushing up really well without growing too tall.

@Silverback_Guerilla, That does seem to be the cases doesn't it lol! We only tied them down, didn't supercrop. Thanks for the advice on how to tie down the branches, will definitely keep that in mind. I will see about the silica and phosphates as well, all great advice, that is much appreciated. I will give the newbie of the month contest a shot, guessing it will be in September/October that we will be harvesting. ππ Happy Growing!

Ya, the OG Kush is gonna be really heavy, but it's Squirt that I've got my eye on for producing the fattest colas.

Can you explain how you used the Happy Frog, has this the only thing used for the growing, who about your soil, seems like it may have been pretty low maintenance from a watering/feeding perspective!

@Hipichic, Thanks gets me much closer! How often do you use the Happy Frog Amendment?

Hipichiccommented4 years ago
@MrJones, Thanks for checking it out and I appreciate the kind words! We have been using the Happy Frog Fruit and Flower by measuring out the right amount according to their height, then scraping it into the soil, and thoroughly watering it afterward. We have the girls in ten gallon Smart Pots and in them is Fox Farm Ocean Soil. Then we buried the pots most of the way to keep the roots cool. It has been pretty low maintenance since we have a drip line hooked up to water for us, we only had to water by hand when we are feeding them. Hope this helps, happy growing!!ππ
