(8/11) Had major drama w/ Furiosa this week; dropped an empty box of Vita Coco on her like a clown and bent 2 stems. Used Scotch tape to mend them and one branch has continued growing virtually without interruption and the other is slowly but surely growing back to life!
Furiosa had a growth spurt this week (hopefully the last!) and has topped out very close to the LED light. Max had a similar spurt previously, but was not nearly as tall as Furiosa grew; fingers crossed that she's done w/ the vertical growth and will now focus on bud development. I defoliated Furiosa, trimmed the leaves on the bottom branches that aren't receiving much light and will most likely not be major bud sites. Debating on pruning those lower branches entirely, but am adopting a less is more strategy in regard to cutting things and stressing the plant.
My plants are growing taller than the LED light! The hanging wires that came w/ the light are now too long; even after rigging the wires so the light will hang at a higher distance. I am using a 4 ft. tall grow tent. How/what can I use to adjust the height of the light?
Hello. The technique you will want to look in to is Super Cropping. Where you take the tallest branches and bend them over so you have a 90 degree angle. Please look for a diary with this technique or ask Mr. Google. Good Luck. Chuck.
Been flushing for 11 days, still seeing brown cloudy water in one plant very near harvest. Watering daily 1L spring water; about 500-700 ml drainage. Increased to 2L, not seeing improvement in water quality. How long should wait to harvest/continue flushing? Tactics/tips, please!
The water doesn't change to clear my friend and a good 7-day flush should do the trick, and judging from your diary the Auto Lowryder is done, the hairs are no longer white and they're receding back into the bud and those trichomes should be milky too HARVEST TIME!!! Hopefully, I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.
I grew this variety a couple of years back outside. It’s tougher than you think. Mine survived a hail storm and a tornado. Not as tall or lanky as yours, but she turned out to be some good smoke.
Hi, Flushing is a modern Myth, dont let your Girl starve, feeding until final Day arrived brings you good harvest, and happy Plant.
Nutrients and chlorophyll breaks down while curing
cheers and happy growing
I hope i did not make it to sour for you
@Mrs_Larimar, flushing works as you can see from the taste of the weed. what this experiment proves is that the theory about the nutrients and the flush is not correct, but it does not change the observation that the taste is better. So if you have an observation that is different to your theory, you can throw away your theory or you can throw away your observation. i prefer to throw away the theory, but again, it doesnt change the taste that you experience, we just need to find a new reason for the taste to be changed (for the better) by flushing. get it? 🚀
