Start of Week 4 - I am still just adding water. Watering has increased but I am sticking to a schedule this run. I am using automatic watering system. It's pumping 1/2 gallon out to all 5 plants in 4 minutes set to every 12 hours. For the 7 gal bags it is working perfect, the 5 gals, they will need another watering tube added.
I topped 2 of the JS's mid week #3, & the other was done today. Yah know, just testing to see what works or not. Makes it interesting & it's a learning curve for me. This is the part of the veg process I do enjoy, topping / training & whatnot.
The GC's were topped today & look like healthy devil's lettuce growing happy AF. The leaves are healthy with no discoloration, & that is valid for all plants. The stalks did bulk up - looks like fan control was key to that development. Push them but not to hard. I found a great fan that has total directional control. This is a good thing, because I have gone through a few fans that just sucked to deal with. This one will be added to the permanent design setup.
I still do not know the sex of the Jack Skellington's. Shit is to micro for me to see & I am too high to f with the scope this a.m. 😉 I will be separating them into my 3x3 as soon. Just waiting for a 4" AC Infinity & a couple of new fans to show up. It will be cool to be able to grow them out to the point of obvious sex can be identified, albeit suks to have spent 5 weeks grow.
Hopefully all goes well with the topping. No hurry to run to harvest, so plenty of time with the photoperiod GC's. The Jack's fate still looms .... I hope it works out, because I like that strain.
Nice looking grow, that living soil looks to be doing well for you! Its hard to positively say but they all look female from what I saw. Good job so far 👍
