38th Day of Flowering since I switched to 12/12 on 01/30/2021 so there is about 3 1/2 weeks left give or take a few days.
All the strains are in the 60-65 day flowering range, except the Gorilla Zkittles which is 55-65
Not too much going on for week 5 of flowering. The fungus gnats have become an annoyance again so sprinkled some DE around and put 4 Yellow sticky traps in. I want to explore the usage of Steinernema feltiae (Nematodes) to mitigate the fungus Gnats further, they have a short life span and I've read about people receiving mostly dead nematodes - going to need to find a local source. Since Fox Farms Happy Frog/Ocean Forest is loaded with fungus gnats.
Added a Honeywell TurboForce Air Circulator Personal Fan, HT-900 at the bottom of my tent. Repositioned the small clip on fan on the back right.
Thanks for checking in!
Hey Man! Question on the chempie. I see you topped the main stem. Ripper seeds recommends FIMing this strain. So if I planned on FIMing the main top, will the main stem keep stretching? Or will it stop where I FIM? Just trying to get an idea of how tall it’ll get.
@AccyStoner25, Hey there! I read the Ripper Seeds description recommending FIMing on the Chempie as well. This is my first grow in ~7 years so I can't speak from experience. But from what I read is that Topping/FIMing share similar goals. One of them being having the plant start growing laterally https://herbiesheadshop.com/blog/topping-vs-fimming
I am using Nebula’s Manifold "Main-Lining" https://www.growweedeasy.com/manifold which uses the Topping technique.
Chempie is vigerous for sure, but with Topping or FIMing along with LST she(hopefully) is manageable.
