Grow #3: Fastbuds Gorilla Cookies

Todays the day! I actually probably waited to long. I shoulda done it earlier, but we will see how a little LST goes on these units! Lemme work my courage up to it with a few beers. Will post pics! _____________________________________________________________________________________________ I think LST went well. I grasp better the point to LST and how its pulling everything to an even canopy level. I think I did it pretty well, but now I see why you might start it earlier to get those main stems down more. I still don't understand which branches would be better to cut now, I will try to follow how they grow so I can "control" better what is growing. ______________________________________________________________________________________________ Another small victory was that the runoff PH was 6.1! Exactly where I want it to be! And I noticed roots growing down at the base of the air-pots so the root-ball has encompassed the whole area! I wasn't sure where the roots where in development. I'm very happy to get LST going, and I'm excited to see these bad-boys pop back!!! __________________________________________________________________________________________ Things look great by the middle of Week 3! the LST went pretty well and they rebounded nicely. I decided to push my luck tonight and after tucking a bunch of leaves decided to adjust the main stalk on a plant and snapped the main stem halfway. I've been assured thinks will be ok, but i'm still mad at myself for forcing it. Gotta be gentle! Will have to watch and see what happens there 😭. I also decided tonight to give the girls some nutrients along with their supplements. easing in to things with 1ml of the GH trio to kick things off a bit earlier than I planned.... Gonna be interesting to see how they take it! So much suspense for the coming days!!!!! ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Thur I went in and removed a couple fan leaves that were blocking nodes. I notice that there is a bit of nitrogen in the leaves so I think Floragrow might have been too much, It might just be best to wait and just add bloom instead. I will monitor... The split stem also seemed to not slow the plant down at all and things have bouced back nicely and everything seems to be on track!
