Week 3 Flower
To start the week off she was given a maintenance flush. This is the last m/flush she'll be given, until she starts her 2+ week flush at the end of her cycle. It's just as, if not more important than the first m/flush, as there could be more leftover nutrients than the first from being given heavier strength feedings. It's a good way to flush out the excess nutrients that can no longer be uptaken by the plant, and replace them with a fresh bloom feed so she can keep building her flowers. She clearly needs it as she already has good sized top buds for this early stage of flower. Silicon has been reduced to the norm now she's over her main stretch, and the base nutrients have been adjusted based around a 1:2:3 ratio, but favouring οΉ°FloraοΉ°Bloom. I've started using Green leaf nutrinets Bud Explosion in small amounts, to increase bud sites and calyx production. Their Sweet Candy is also now being included; this should improve the flavour and aroma. I'm doing a proper test with these on a clone from the Bubble Kush that I made a diary for, as this is a fairer test because I can compare to her first run.
Along with her great calyx production, she's now starting to produce plenty of trichomes, and will soon frost up well throughout flower. Overall, a very happy and healthy looking girl so far.
Thanks for following and happy growing! πΊ
Stunning nugs.. just gorgeous. I wasn't aware of the cutting down before the lights turn on..makes sense. I've put mine in dark for 1-2 days before trim.
@Lady_NugWitch, cheers mate βοΈ I keep em drying in the dark for 6-12 days (however long it takes to dry) before dry trimming and curing βοΈ Once it's all in the jar I keep em curing in the dark too βοΈπΊ
@Lady_NugWitch, correct mate ππ the reason behind it is because light degrades the trichomes, so keeping it in the dark keeps it fresher, tastier and gives a longer shelf life πβοΈπΊ
Killing it, FF. Great description of your flushing process. Checking run off is one of my key metrics also. Good luck with your harvest.
Looking mighty fine.
