Veg. Week 6
Life and work interfered this week and commitments meant I had to leave the girls totally on their own for a few days. After last week's poor performance looking after the girls and basically abandoning them this week I really am putting them to the test and asking a lot from them for a first attempt at growing
Day 36 - Nothing needed today
Day 37 - Nothing happening today. I am allowing the girls to dry out before a big feed to give them a good soaking before I have to be away for a few days
Day 38 - Final feed until I get back on Sunday. Girls were given 1.5l feed until run off to ensure pots were as wet as I could get them. I also trimmed a few more fan leaves off to allow the light to get through. Humidifier has been filled up and set. It won’t last the 4 days I am away but hopefully it will last a couple. I have all my fingers and toes crossed they survive.
Day 39/42 - Away
Day 42 - End of week. I got back today and the first thing I did was water the girls with plain tap water as they were starting to look pretty dry. Girls were all given 1.5l of water until a little run off. I left the girls to sit in their run off for a time to allow them to suck any water back up after their shock at being watered again. As expected the humidity dipped a lot lower than I would have liked at one point getting down to 32%, hopefully this was not for too long. Girls heights at the end of their vegetation period were: No.1 50cm tall, No.2 44cm & No.3 42cm
I am going to switch to flowering this coming week in the hopes the girls are ready for chopping by mid May. Thanks for stopping by and following my endeavors and I hope everyone is keeping well
