First week of flower.... Surprise.... you have a BOY!!!😲
That's right... I see nuts! I have to say it certainly was a surprise... but, from my very first grow, one of my buddies said I should always have backup just in case something goes wrong....👺
I'm glad I listened. I did some cloning at the start, and I have myself two nice clones, maybe a little early to switch... but we're going to do it anyways!
With that said.... I forgot to label which WC clones I kept...WC#1 or WC#2... might have two more boys.... another reason I'm switching now😵.
Alright, back to it... 👈
After I removed the Groom from the tent, and found a new home for him👻... I transplanted the clones into bigger pots with new soil, (2 gallon I think), gave them about 250ml of water, found a spot for them, topped one and trying for six arms... Fim'ed the second one with 4 visible arms right now... even though they are being switched, lets see what happens👊.
Now that's good testing... 👌👍
The Main girl is doing fantastic! She has some real nice satellite arms growing... was thinking on removing them too... but they will survive another week.
WC stretched probably about 3-4 inches👋... but I think she's just getting started. She also seems to be outgrowing her Big Bud cousin with the same training/growing technique.
She's drinking 2L every 4 days with about 5% runoff... I'm trying not to lose to much since it's all organic. I need to get my bigger cloth pots👿... As you see in the pics, I added the tomato rings this time instead of using the net/scrog... easier when ya need to adjust an arm or two.
So, for the next week, fingers crossed that the only nuts in the tent are mine 😜😂
@pevseeds... If I had another tent, I would have kept the groom and test a clone with him... Double Layer Wedding Cake😜😝😳
Thanks for watching!
@Blacklisted, In my past grows, I had more larf (small buds, popcorn buds) then I wanted. After alot of research of different training methods, and from my own experiences... I believe by removing the larf within the first 3-4 weeks of flower, that it will direct all the growing energy towards the tops... whether it be the main colas or the satellite arms. That way, you end up with bigger and tighter nugs.
In previous grows, if I removed the larf, I usually snipped the fans leaves as well. This time, I'm leaving them to help with the shock and to have more area for light absorption. I will remove any big leaves if they are in the way of buds growing and if I need better air flow.
This is my first test with this type of training to see if it truly works.
Happy Growing!😁
