Barney's 2020 mainlining

The seedlings came out 2 days after being planted straight into the medium, watered with a few drops per day to keep up the moisture. Mimosa Evo is a new strain at Barney's and it will be interesting to see how it grows and reacts to mainlining.

At the second day of week 2 the first two leaves of each Mimosa look a little crinkled, but the environment is ok and the Peyote in the same tent looks good so i think it is characteristic of this particular strain. At the fourth day of week 2 the plants show signs of explosive growth

The plants officially entered the explosive period of the growth. They're absolutely loving life, and despite the overexposed colour in the photos their green is absolutely healthy. They are growing low and bushy, which is perfect because I want to mainline all of them At the end of week 3 the plants are almost ready for the first topping, as you can see they doubled in size in just 3 days.

First day of week 4, the plants are grown big enough to top but they didn't develope enough side branches to start mainlining. I hope I can use this technique as soon as the plants recover from the topping. On day 4 just the first of the three shows sign of complete recover while the side branches still don't want to grow up. I fed the plants with a tea full of microbes and good organic stuff. End of week 4, the only thing needed for the lower branches to catch up was increase the height of the lamp. Now they are really happy looking forward to the second and last month of veg

Pretty solid start for this week, all the plants took just one day to recover from the last session of training and they are showing new vigorous growth already. 1st day fed them with my usual secret mix of organic good stuff Day 32, 4th day of week 5. Babies recover at max speed so I can continue to top and train them to achieve the wanted structure. They already show signs of flowering hormones telling me that when I want to flip, they are ready. Day 35, last defoliation of the week and I think also I will do just another defoliation right before flippin to flower

Solid start for this week also, nothing to complain about the growth. I'm doing just some LST to increase branches strenght to support bigger buds. Day 38, tied down some branches to create an even canopy and strenghten stems

Day 43, week 7 starts, these girls keep growing like crazy. I decided to defoliate them and only keep the tops for now, except for one of them that is so wide and low that I left some side branches at the same level of the tops. Day 45. Great general conditions, they want more food than ever as the flowering stage come closer

Strong start for week 8, last week of veg. Pretty impressed by these mix of nutrients, total recovery and explosive growth right after watering. And they are totally Bio! Day 55, I did top feeding with worm castings, nitroguano and amino perlas. Tomorrow I'll switch to 12/12 light cycle and start flowering stage. The vegetation stage for Mimosa Evo it's been awesome, althought every single plant grew very different from the others showing opposite phenotypes

2nd week flower starts good, can't see any pistols yet but they started stretching. That's ok because temperatures are a little too high for flowering stage and that could cause foxtailing A little slow to kick in the flowering stage but they still look great on day 66, end of the week. I decided to give them less water but water every day

Secondo week of flower, Mimosas stretched pleasantly less than I expected and they already started to stack buds. Peyote critical seems to be stretching quite well and evenly and despite its indica dominant genetic it seems to be a little slower than the mimosas (sativa dominant)

Buds are stacking not as good as I wanted but quite well.
