Almost end of week 3.
After a slow start, GSC has gotten into her stride and is growing well despite local scorching temperatures and is dealing with the heat stress, for the most part, like a champ.
She was re-potted her from a 1 ltr orchid pot into a 25 ltr airpot at the end of week 2 using hydrocorn as a base with Bio-Bizz All Mix, (with an extra 10% added perlite) and a half strength mix of Green House Feeding - Bio Grow. This should only require water for the rest of the veg period with the occasional Bio-Enhancer top up (essentially humic acid and high quality kelp) although I will supplement with Bio Silicon, Fulvic Acid, Cal/Mag as required.
I have only filled my pots two-thirds full of soil at this stage as I will be adding a further amount of soil mixed with Green House Seeds - Bio Bloom supplement once we get to flower and I will need the extra 'pot' space.
She is nice and healthy and vigorous so I decided to top her at the 6th node. She showed no signs of sulking and was bouncing back within 24 hours.
Slightly smaller than some of the other behemouths growing along side her (different strains all germinated at the same time), however, she is well on the way to developing dinner plate sized leaves already.
Some LST lies ahead once we have a little more branching development.
