PANAMA x MALAWI ... single strain

Transplanted 2 of the Plants that showed obvious Calyx/Pistil development, into 15 Gal pots The first pH balanced watering included only Molasses. This will give the Fertilizers and other healthy bits in the new soil a chance to pitch-in. Sunday, Nutrients as normal. Weekly Ocean Magic Foliar Feed at “Lights-out” 15ml/gal; Sunday - Big increase in TDS as the Nutrient addition grows steadily - capped the soil with Sand, to prevent any spider-mite or gnat activity. 1-2” will do it. *** will be hard to maintain a sand barrier on the top edges of the flexible pots. Each time you move/rotate them, the edge changes. FYI. (Watering helps level it) Challenge this week is the accurate feeding and moisture levels of plants and soil. I have now moved them into big pots = Big change. Fed Nutrients and am going to wait now 3 days till next watering to see how the sand-cap impacts the overall moisture levels. Started with frequent, smaller waterings, and trying to maintain a level of dryness between feedings. And also to Pump up Nutrients at the same time ! The plan: Lites out on Boxing Day morning as normal. Going to do 30 hrs of dark and head into Stretch/Flower with lites-on, the evening of the 27th Thursday’s (17th) big-feed is listed above. No idea on TDS yet. ~ guessing 1250 - 1350 ppm. {(Actual 1420ppm with the Molasses) It’s as big as it’s gonna get} -Molasses every 3rd feed. When it’s a weekly Foliar spray, I do not include Ocean Magic in the soils Nutrients that day. Just to ease up tds) -Midweek and for the first time, I took leaves off that were making shadows on bud sites along branch nodes. Still poking the big ones away & under when possible, nuisance ones are gone. Let there be lite -holding out one more day before watering, all looks good. Tomorrow lights-on is 3 days since last feed. Finding dry is critical while cranking up volumes! -today for the first time, the 10 gallon plant showed itself to be a Female. And in the name of the Holiday Season, I have gifted it to a local grower, with nothing under his Tent this year ha. My plan is / and was for 2 plants in the tent. I soaked 3 regular Special Edition seeds to make sure it happened. -Bonus for @%+€# Friday 18th: -3 days between waterings had zero impact on the plants. No wilting or drooping, No colour issues. Adding a bit more water next time I feed them. @.75 gal ea. now every 3. moving to 1 gal ea every 3 -seems the plants are starting to reach already. Great growths along the horizontal branches, all pointing straight-up. Lites out in 3 feeds. Pics tonight ** really appreciate the information that DODRUGS420 shared with me about UV-B supplemental lighting ** (and the warnings) It’s not often that people get to share Proven Science. Like most things, too much or too little causes trouble. But the science has been done and it’s positive. Just added to my Wish List for 2021 ! Sat 19th the plants look they are screaming to go into Flower. Side-Branches on the side-branches is as good a sign as I can see. Might follow-through and keep the lites off a few days earlier than planned. 1 more feed ?
