She has started to feed now often and is getting very bushy. Going to have to defoliate anytime but I'm just giving it some time to just grow. It got a full does of nutes last night and it grew exponentially between 1 to 2 cms. Pistils are easily visible everywhere and smell it getting stronger.
I'm sure the defoliation will only make her buds bigger. I usually do a final defo on day 20 and never had problems . She has a great structure , like the way you have trained her . Nice work π±
@spacecadet55, thanks for your response mate. I have noticed on this website that most of the non-auto plants starts buffing up starting week 5 as you said. It's just very frustrating to sit there for little more than a week without much progress, can't stop worrying that i made the wrong call. Anyway, hopefully you're right, thanks bud.
@Chad053, they can be stunted a little after a heavy defoliation . It may just mean they need a bit more time in flower. Week 5, 6, 7 they usually swell up for me.
Maybe check your Run Off PH and EC just to check everything is ok and there's lockout issues, just incase .
But it all looks fine to me, white hairs look long, so makes me think they will fill out nicely π
@spacecadet55, Hey matey, I defoliated my plant quite drastically last week. Week 4 of flowering and the buds are not really getting fater. However, the small branches at the bottom are still elongating. It's that normal behaviour or i went to hard on the defo?
Shes looking good to me. A bit leafy but I think that's down to genetics. I have one now that is taking it's time and not fully swelling. But for the light your using bud I think she looks great. If you can get 100g to 150g from one mars ts1000 that's really good going .
@Chad053, sounds great! Have only been growing autos yet because I'm still learning how to grow, but I think I might try photoperiod on my next grow, to have more control
@@Minou, thanks mate, really appreciate the comments. This plant was from a regular seed, so i was lucky it was a female but my next seeds are all feminised photoperiod. I like to be able to flip the plant to flower when i wish to do so πππ
@Chad053, dang, I just finished my first grow about 2 weeks ago, had two plants but it seems I'll only get around 50 grams out of it. I hope your harvest will be better than mine!
Edit: Wanted to ask, is she an Auto or Photo plant?
