Hey all welcome to the first week of flower!
So I was lucky enough to be home this week and feel blessed to have helped the lady’s through there transition to flower. The girls got a feed of both veg and flower nutes this week as the transition to flower. They have moved up to 3ltrs of water every second day as there must be a full 10 gal of roots now.
The main worry we had was that the gold leave would out grow the indica dominant big buds and super skunks but so far the big bud is stretching the hardest out of them all (only by 2”’s) so the canopy really has needed no maintenance in the first week of flower. Lights are being lifted about a inch to 2 inches every day and all seams good there.
If you have been following along the double feed a week is holding up well and no signs of nute burn. We did have a issue with Sulfur deficiency in big bud 4 it seams that some how her soil ph has again spiked up to around 7.3 so she was flushed out with correct ph water and then had a feed of nutes and Epsom salts to get her back in line. She has bounced back and now has green new growth not yellow.
From this mornings empty of the de humidifier to taking photos about a hour ago the girls are all starting to make the tips of there buds and showing strong signs of flower on there tops.
All plants had a solid run in with the snips and got there 7 day flower defoliation and will get the same around day 21 then left to do there thing. It’s crazy how many leaves these girls have produced over the last 2 weeks.
Well until next week happy growing to you all 🌲🌲🌲
Cheers lads I’ve moved it outside but can’t chop it up! I’ve been pulling nanas off it twice a day and it’s only been around 7 so far that I’ve found. I guess just keep it away, keep picking them off and keep her for Personel smoke
It doesnt look like the hermies ive seen in the past but id say watch it for a couple more days and see what its doing because it doesnt look like foxtailing or something of that nature either... wonderful work on your training by the way it looks amazing
Man, they look beautifully trained. When you Lolipop how many nodes do you leave at the top of each cola? I'm pretty trash at defoliation and I feel like my weights would drastically improve if i understood how much others are shaving off haha. looks clean AF
@Nugs_are_us, Hey thanks man. It's so hard getting a consensus on bud sites getting light exposure. I see half say the leaves are the panels duh and the other half stress the importance of cleaning up so that energy gets redirected to the bud sites. I feel like naturally I have not done the later yet to increase yields so I need to bust out the trimmers more lol. Good luck
@FlynnRyder, I try for the bottom 1/3rd of the plant when I do my defoliation. I try to leave at least 3-5 nodes on there as some of the bottom buds will grow to fill in the middle of the plants
@exclusiveX420, 8x4 bud need a bit more lighting and a longer veg time next run and should be epic. Thanks man I really hope they turn out like I think they will
Niiiice work 👏 can't wait to see there collas! Nice, neat, clean, nice job my friend! I too like organization with my grows. You take pride and it shows! Very impressive 👏
@Polaskis, thank you! They are set up quiet nice atm just hope the 3 different strains don’t go all crazy with different heights. Fingers crossed there is some solid colas about to happen 🤙🏻
@Nugs_are_us, Oh yeah, without a doubt.. it’s worth spending that extra time just to get training on point. I deal with a mildew issues, so that’s vital in that aspect too, otherwise the buds are growing tight and right up against each other which is breeding grounds for mildew in my case
@Ezzjaybruh, we’re heading in to winter over in Australia when summer comes back around I’ll do a 3 month veg they can be raised and topped outside then moved into the tent once there a month old. So much better to have the time to train them and lay them out how you want them hey.
@kansasscott725, there wicked little lst training tools. I got a 100 pack off eBay. Think they called them LST 90 degree trainers. I find I have to hit them with a lighter and straighten them out a little bit but so handy can super crop with out the time set back.
@Polaskis, cheers mate just topped 6 of them going to try a new way to manifold them this time around. Fingers crossed my thinking pays off this grow lol
@BigCough, I’d say all of them big bud is the strongest plant so far then super skunk 1 is also a solid plant and interested to see how the gold leaf go through flower
@Hempy_the_kid, I think next round I’ll veg for a bit longer as there only short plants and might have affected my yields but happy for my first photo plant grow
@@Waylate, thanks bud it means a lot I’ve grown a few runs of autos this is my first run at feminised seeds. Love how easy they are to train and fingers crossed they load up with buds now
@BigCough, hey buddy hope your well! Just did 3 of them into 10 gal pots I’ve never gone that big but was amazed that the 3 gal fab pots had roots all the way to the edge and bottom already. I can tell you one thing the 10 gal pots with wet dirt are bloody heavy hahahahaha. Don’t think the missus will be moving them around to much. I’ve got a 4x8 tent so plenty of room in there, I’d recommend 5 gal min mate. As they say more roots more fruits
@Nugs_are_us, damn.. 10 gallons huh? I'm debating moving mine to 5 gallons or leaving in 3... 5 gallons would fit but with little spa lace between pots for airflow... thoughts?
