Week 5 8/12/20-8/18/20: Day 29 8/12/20: Just spraying water every now and then. The Coast Of Maine Stonington Soil really holds moisture inside even in fabric pots, so far 4 days without water. 77.5F-80.6F 43%-58% Day 30 8/13/20: Bought a new 2 ft Plant Lightbulb and 2 better LED bulbs. Soil is still moist. Just spray in tent and play music. I definitely think Barrel (LEFT) is an auto. 68.4f-86.4f 38%-57%. Day 31 8/14/20: Today both plants received 1/2 cup Coast Of Maine Fish Bone Meal mixed to top of soil, then slightly watered using Liquid Squid Fertilizer water. Less than half the dosage. 77.4f-81.3f 45%-57% Day 32 8/15/20: Today I added some new soil on top and heavy spray top soil and thatโ€™s all. I started LST on Missy and will be leaving Barrel alone since it looks like itโ€™s an auto. 77.4f-79.7f 47%-65% Day 33 8/16/20: Very lightly watered with less than half dose of Liquid Squid Fertilizer water around base area. I hope I am doing good so far. 77.9f-80.4f 47%-57% Day 34 8/17/20: Just lightly sprayed the top soil around stem with water. Barrel is already starting to bud. Missy is taking training well so far. 76.3F-79.4F 43%-50% Day 35 8/18/20: Just lightly spray around stem area and play music. 76.8F-80.6F 43%-56%

I believe the optimal time is when she has 5-6 total nodes, and you should cut off the top of your plant down to the 3rd node. I leave you a web page where you can check: https://www.growweedeasy.com/mainlining-nugbuckets and the web address of my diarie where I also make the cut. While this time it wasn't for mainlining specifically, I always do it the same way: growdiaries.com/diaries/54626-royal-queen-seeds-wedding-gelato-grow-journal-by-capibara420/week/279565 Happy growing!! ๐Ÿ˜‹

It's important to notice that each kind of soil requires a different management! If it's purely coco coir, in every watering, and if it has organic matter on it, you may use only every 15 days or so. And care with the dosage!!! 1/8 to 1/2 is the best option. I would use something next to 2ml/L of water and watch for deficiency, if any emerge i would give more( If the solution is inside that bottle, as it has no Potassium)

How your soil was built? I do believe that adding organic matter as soon as possible is the best option, and for sure later next to middle flower adding more is a great options. It does take a long time to degrade and absorb by plant, so no worry by adding earlier. Also care with microorganism so they can decompose that matter and make them available.

Hi there! I'd say you should wait until the plant is growing "vigorously" again. If you induce more stress you might stunt her even more and that is not good. When shes healthy and happy its ok to transplant

Hey! I would wait a bit more... Harvest window opens when you start getting amber pistils(hairs). Normally when there's 70% amber and 30% white pistils they're ready to start flushing but that's not always the case. The best way to check is looking at the trichomes. Clear trichomes haven't reached their full potencia, cloudy ones are full of THC and amber are losing THC while gaining CBN. So depending on your preference whether you want more of a head high or body high. I normally start to look at trichomes when there are about 50/50% white and amber pistils. I harvest when after examining and finding 70% cloudy trichomes and 30% amber trichomes. For me that's a prefect combination, depending on the strain as well. Have in mind if you use nutrients you'll need to flush the roots, watering only with PHed water for at least a week. Good luck and happy growing!

What to do when ready to harvest? I read some leave plant 24-48 hours in darkness then cut and hang to dry, some cut the plant and then hang to dry whats best? Does any of the little steps really matter? Thanks happy growing cheers!

Hello, I have done a bit of research and experimentation with different harvesting methods and there is a really good utube video about the lab results of darkness when harvesting. https://youtu.be/C-Ns7j0WIJM The video is very interesting it explains a lot about this topic and how the chemical changes happen within the plant when exposed to longer periods of darkness before harvesting but there is also another major factor as well and it is the temperature during the whole darkness/harvest & cure process if your going for max terpenes you have to key in on the evaporation point.

I'm curious to see how much you get come harvest time. Very heavy defoil done prior to flowering and during week 2 of flowering. I feel the plant could have gotten a lot more growth if it had the leaves to accelerate it. As long as the buds can see the light, and you defoil the ones that get mostly shaded by higher leaves. Regardless its a beautiful plant though and you obviously take a lot of pride in it. Awesome job man ๐Ÿ‘Š

HAPPY91commented4 years ago
@Mosherd7,Thank you very much for the amazing words. So this is my first time growing anything and I agree and learned from my mistake by taking way to much off when I defoiliated. I can see what steps I did that showed positive stress and negative stress. My other journals I have are going great. I also have no clue what strain or anything about the seed. Thanks for checking out my grow. Stay safe Happy growing Cheers!!!!

@MarijuanaFarmer, I can't say as this was one of my first grows. I can say mainlining made things much easier on the trimming and drying equally. Helps keep humidity from forming around bud sites during flower stage for sure. Overall I really like mainlining. Thanks for checking out my grow. Good luck stay safe happy growing cheers!!!!!

Still looking great. PERSONALLY, after the first topping and you get 2 mains, I leave the first and third node on each of them. Cut the second off (After 4th appears top it off) After reading online and trying, I find its a quick way to get the shape you want for 8 colas and reduce the time it takes by a couple weeks. (As long as you don't have autos, you can always just veg for longer though) Food for thought: https://www.growweedeasy.com/manifold But otherwise they look real healthy. ๐Ÿ‘ Keep it up!

Athos
Athoscommentedweek 34 years ago
Depends. If it is an auto you need to top removing either the 5th or 6th node, anything later and it will start flowering; keep in mind that once the 5th pair of leaves fully open flowering will start, so the TOPing needs to be done when the node is just appearing. On photoperiods you can top much later, depending on how big you want your plant before flowering.
