Week 6 of flower,
I read a study somewhere that defoliating doesnt increase yields as much as we might think, also the flowers themselves do not produce chlorophyll so exposing them to sun doesnt help them get bigger.
Removing leaves is actually a bit risky because the plants genetic code has her making sun leaves and shade leaves, exposing shade leaves to direct sun messes with the signals. Theres no doubt that defoliating helps in some ways here and there, but definitely not the way I thought it did, so I stopped removing leaves for now.
It's all getting fluffy and nice, smells lovely when rubbed. More pictures in the next few days.
Day 98
I have discovered loads of leaves that have a little weird growth on them, on some theres two. I have googled the mutations a cannabis plant can have, i havent found anything that looks like this, if anyone knows what this is i would very much appreciate some information ^_^
i decided i will back down on the Nitrogen, i will start decreasing A&B slowly after the start of week 8.
@Ferenc, Yup it is getting heavier and heavier, I had to tie some branches to the top poles xD
not very long to go now.. I will start taking closeups of trichomes in 2 weeks time.
Hi DreamCatcher,
Ooo.. What a nice main-lining !
Is your nice plant still 38 cm tall ? I tought it would strech much more.
I plan to grow some Ace seeds( malawi / golden tiger) and guess what...follow your diary with much interest :)
Thank you and good grow to you.
@@Weedelfe, Oh absolutely, comparing to my previous grow and attempt at scrogging this one is properly made.. Dr.Grinspoon kept stretching until the very last 4 weeks and that mesh screen that i used did nothing at all xD
Will definitely fit inside the tent, im expecting the stretch to end in the next 3 weeks, with 7 weeks left to go it feels closer than ever :D
@DreamCatcher, Thank you for your answer. So, if I'm not wrong, it is +/- 50 cm tall (soil to tallest cola) meaning that even if it still stretches a bit the height remains quite manageable indoor !🙏
@@Weedelfe, Hey man thanks! I really appreciate the interest and the kind words! :D
And yes, the tallest cola stands 36-38cm above the grid, im pretty sure she will stretch a bit more, but also put on some weight.
There is a lot of talks about ACE seeds being one of the best quality seedbanks and so far they havent dissapointed ^_^
Hi mate,
Thanks for your diary.
I'm a big fan of the ACE seeds strains, and I have special interest in this one. Actually I'm growing some others from ACE too.
Good luck with your crop @DreamCatcher 💪👊
@DreamCatcher, my xperience with this seed bank is good until now.
What I like most is they put the focus in the preservation and improvement of original landraces from allover the world, instead of mix and remix again and again the same comercial old strains. They do a good breeding job, and is the only bank I know publishing the THC and terpenes analysis from external laboratories.
The strain you've chose is in my wishlist 😉
@Sativfaction, Thank you! This is the first time im dealing with ACE, so not really sure what to expect, people keep saying its a good seedbank with good quality seeds so, ill have to wait to see..
@GMSgrows, No i havent, my RO filter gives me water at 6ph, after i finish adding nutrients into it the ph drops immidiately down to 5.7 and over the course of a few seconds it will stabilize at 5.3 on my reader. The plant seems to be okay with it so far..
@bioaccessory,
Hey man :)
The pot is sat 11cm from the ground, the pot is 35cm and the grid is 13cm above the pot. Total, the grid is 59cm off the ground. It was less, but because the stems started splitting (you can see on some pictures) i had to raise it a bit so it wouldnt be resting on the plant.
