Ladies were growing nicely, almost too wide for the their environment. Next grow I think I am going to perhaps grow 3 plants to give them a bit more space. I would welcome any input as to how to keep the plants 'contained' initially to their environment.
I decided to top the Blue Dream which was growing faster than the Cali Dream (note that creating a canopy with two different strains was difficult, if not impossible for the newbie). I topped it at the 5th node. Tune in next week for the update ;)
Note that I cranked up the nutrients a bit this week, probably premature again. The blue dream seemed to love it but the Cali Dream was not as happy. I did a water flush after the first feed and then everything seemed ok. The leaves were tacoing a bit which you can see in the pictures with all the plants in them. I also turned down the light a bit.
@@WeedbayGardens, yes it was incredible how much the girls stretched. I was cautious with them height-wise due to what I had read and was glad I didn't grow them too tall before flipping the switch otherwise I would have run out of overhead room! Thanks for the note! Happy cultivating!
Looking good mate! Could probably ease off the root stimulator! The EC will rise and you'll want to only use what's necessary.
From experience too much additives can overwhelm the plant ;)
All the best mate!
@Xspellsx, I ended up not using it (why I gave it a neutral rating). I went with just ph’d balanced water for the final two weeks (one week before harvesting colas and then another before finishing the harvest). Good luck!
amazing grow dude. I am on my second grow, using flora nutrients aswell. Did you water these plants in flower everyday?
I'm at week 5, feeding my plants 5 ml of florabloom and 15 ml of big bud coco and it gets fed every 24 hours
I know this is old but I have a pure indica strain that stretches insanely.. any new growth will be an 18-20 inch cola after stretch.. with huge space between lower buds on branch
