Flowers doveloping alright, i will soon see whether topping 3 times for a micro would out weigh 1 top. At this point im saying its not worth it but it makes for an interesting plant
I haven't tried myself yet but have read several accounts of multi strain grafts. Would be a creative way to maintain a mother of several strains when on a plant count.
About a year ago someone on here grafted a clone to a peach tree branch... did i save it? Of course not.. lol 🤦♂️ffs. Pretty neat though. If you try this make sure to post it up for us!
So ive got abit of an extra for experts, couple of experimental ideas i have and i wonder if anyones tried.
1: havesting a plant then grafting a seedling into the havested plant stock, thus making use a an already established root ball? Any thoughts?
The existing root ball needs the plant above the ground to be able to sustain its health - its a two way thing - roots support the plant and the plant makes the energy for the roots to grow and exist.
Grafting a seedling onto an older and much larger rootstock would mean most of the roots dying, if not all. due to the small seedling being unable to produce enough "goodness" and energy to keep the roots healthy. Sounds tempting, but as with most things in life, there are no free lunches!
Hope this helps,........

Just letting it do its thing. not having any problems, just another week of fattening. No ripening pistils, calyxes are swelling, trichomes have decent clear/cloudy heads on them....happy days
Buds are still fattening up, larger fan leaves are showing an early nitrogen deficiency which is allgood.
Temperatures are dropping, averaging 23 during lights on. Good timing coming out of summer, i get to see the plant through without havesting due to earlier trichome deterioration.
Now running UVB 10.0 reptile light only 15w 60cm fluorescent t8 tube for 6 hours in the middle of each light cycle. Couldnt find any arguement that could sway me so im doing a trail and error, 15w is pretty safe if not too safe?
Spose il find out, though its hard to tell without running a side by side little experiment.
Buds are dense, decent trichome dovelopment, no sign of amber...girls are happy, im happy.
Another week of slowly reaching the harvest date.
Early sugar leaves on tops are showing average 10% amber trics.
Calyxes are swelling with each day, generating dense new trics to still ripen.
Pistils are browning, about 50% now with slight new growth/foxtailing on the tops.
Its getting real smelly.. maybe time for a filter, with a space this confined its gonna be a mission fitting one on.
Fan leaves withering off, no stress.
Buds are becoming dense and are weighing the stems down
probably looking at harvesting in 2 weeks to allow new trics to go cloudy. Hoping to click over 2 oz with this plant but aslong as the smoke is smooth and potent im not worried about yeild.
Cheers boys and girls for checking in, let me know what you think, have a good day 👍
Cut down last night.
Must admit im pretty chuffed with how well this plant has grown. My set up being as small as it is ( L x W x H, 70 x 40 x 60cm) attempting to grow quality, quantity is not my priority, but i feel my efforts have been rewarded with both.
Awesome strain, sativa highs with an indica growth pattern? How good.
Will post the dry weight after 3 weeks.
Fuck yeah 🤙
Grow diaries has been a new and fun way for me to keep track of my grow, learning heaps through the questions and answers, theres some real knowledgeable growers that are helping who they can with a positive community surrounding. Good stuff. Cheers guys
