(✿◠‿◠) Organic Do-Sweet-Dos

Week 5 Day 29 (11/09/2020): Not that many updates today. I think that Do-Sweet-Dos is still the most beautiful girl out of the 4. She has more rounded leaves and is a slightly lighter green (not sure if that’s a good or bad thing but just something I’ve noticed). But overall I think all the girls are quite similar in growth and I will include an image of all of them this week as well. Day 30 (12/09/2020): Been busy day today and didn't have time to check the girls so unfortunately no pictures. We will also soon be moving to a different flat (in about a month) so we might not be able to do scrog until later. Will have to see how many people are vising the house to view it and then judge from there. Day 31 (13/09/2020): Was meant to water the girls yesterday but plans got in the way and leaves started wilting a little. I kinda fucked up 😥 But all the girls were completely fine two hours after being watered (the normal 1.5L with 1.5ml of BioGrow). I will also water more often now because I’ve noticed the soil get dry more quickly because the girls are probably using a lot to grow so fast! Day 32 (14/09/2020): Noticed some yellowing leaves at the bottom of the foliage when I was inspecting them so might remove at the next defoliation (will probably be at the end of the week). Also quite a few leaves on all the girls have some damage that I thought initially was from watering them and the light burning them but now I think it might be damage from the flies. When looking on google at leaf damage from gnats it looks similar but not quite the same so I think what we will do is remove the damaged leaves that are all mainly under the foliage anyway and see whether more damage occurs after that since there are definitely less flies now. Also the lights didn’t automatically switch back on for some reason and they were in the dark for 10 hours instead of 6, hopefully they don’t start thinking that it’s veg time 🤔 Day 33 (15/09/2020): Today I sprayed the neem oil with the emulsifier on the girls again (I did this just before lights out and turned the small fan off just like before to ensure the oil gets absorbed into the leaves). I try to spray really thoroughly over all the leaves, on the underside of leaves especially the fan leaves, on the top of the soil and on the sides where there are holes in the AirPot. It seems that there are less flies than there were a week ago (I see about one a day now) but they are still not gone so will need a few more weekly sprays to get the flies completely out. Day 34 (16/09/2020): So we decided to work on the girls today and trained them a little more to tuck down the branches that have grown and give some space. But all the girls grow so quick that it is quite difficult to separate all the branches and give them enough space (which is where scrog would have been good but we will see if we are able to do it because of moving or not). Also did a second small defoliation today, just trying to remove all the leaves that are not getting light underneath anyway. I tried to remove the ones that are covered even after opening it up with training and the leaves with damage so I can assess if the flies are still doing damage after. Also watered the girls today as the top of the soil was pretty much dry, just did the usual watering. Day 35 (17/09/2020): Not that many updates today, girls are all recovering well after the defoliation and have readjusted themselves after the training. It’s already getting hard to separate them to even take pictures because of how much they are growing so idk how big we are gonna grow them before flower 😅 probably another week or two but we will see at the end of week 6. Definitely great progress this week! Also included a picture of all the girls in the tent, they are all pretty much the same size now (top left is Red Hot Cookies #1, top right is Red Hot Cookies #2, bottom right is Do-Sweet-Dos, and bottom left is Sweet Zkittles).
