- Pretty chill week, buds looking delicious and everything looking good
- Just have to keep her steady and guide her onto the runway at this point
- Checking daily for pests or problems, nothing to report at this stage
- Nutrients cut off by mid week to allow for 10-14 days of flushing with plain PH balanced water
- The idea with PH balancing the water I suppose is to allow the plants to continue up-taking nutrients left over in the coco during the flushing period
- Home stretch! One more week after this most likely and then harvest time!
- Tent has been hovering around 26C for day temps and 21C for night temps, I don't have AC or I would've cooled her down in the 16-18C range to see if I could coax some colour out of them
- I just don't think these particular genetics have purple in them like the original GDP strain
Do you notice any difference with your 11 hours on light cycle or does it all seem about the same? Looks so amazing and I cant wait to see more in the future! Happy growing cheers!
@HAPPY91, I honestly couldn't tell you with certainty that there is a difference until I take clones and run the same plants with the same set up and everything under 12/12.. Planning on doing that at some point. The plants are looking nice though so I'm not sure if I could attribute that to the light cycle or not.
Amazing yield and super frosty looking buds Tony. Sorry you didn't get that flavor and correct genetics that you were hoping to get. Always great checking your grows. Can't wait to see what your bringing up next. Good luck stay safe happy growing cheers!!!!! Thanks for the notes about flowering stage since i'm there now to.
Looking amazing ! Browsing through so many diaries and really enjoy checking your out. Been using some of your tips and tricks thanks. Happy growing Cheers!
@HAPPY91, hey and thanks for the kind words. Still learning a lot! Hoping to get into organic super soil next and then maybe some kind of aquaponics set up down the line. Either way I appreciate the love!
@Dean1, I don't have much experience with this particular strain but I would say they are naturally shorter plants. That being said I would say for sure I've done something to stunt them a little, especially the second pheno. She was always a slow grower from the time I popped the seeds and was always just a little behind and smaller. I also think that main lining in these pots was a mistake due to the fact that they are taller and more narrow than the fabric pots and didn't give the plants enough room to expand horizontally. If I grow this strain out again I would try to spread the branches out more so the colas could expand or just let it grow naturally and top maybe once, if that.
@Bushbaby808, Haha thanks mate! I originally wanted to use a trellis net but I don't think it would be wise since I am manifolding the plants.. Next time I grow I'll top once or twice and let them grow into the net.
Honestly, I think mainline has served you well, I donโt cut any leaves off from start to finish but I do try to remove lower bud sites 2-3 weeks after flip as plants tend to make more flowering sites than they can support ๐ really, beautiful plants, you should be proud ๐
