This little baby is blowing up. I've done some leaf tucking which has allowed for some strong under growth. She towers over her double grape sister that sprouted the same day. Topped at day 25. Havnt ran into any problems yet. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Plant growth is controlled by light intensity , oxygen , co2 , nutrients aid the process but the single most important factor is the light . Then oxygen to the roots , don't overdo things as they can never be undone , my golden rule - you can always add but never take out , it look ok , but could probably do with being closer to the light 👍
@Divs_darkroom, I knew about the lighting not needing to be changed but I thought all plants hand a flowering boost of grow, that's good to know thank you. Maybe that's why you really need autos to bulk up before they automatically begin flowering? Or you'll end up with little ladies?
@Experimentgreen, with a photoperiod plant your thought process is on the right track. with the automatic plants, they dont depend on light to flower/stretch. they do it when they are ready. so i keep my 19 hour lighting schedule from seedling all the way to harvest day.
