Welcome back to the Fastbuds Purple Punch grow! Finally working into a good spot this week I think!
Nutrient solution is basically following my feed chart right now, though the runoff was a little high this week, 993 PPM in and 1232 PPM in the runoff. (Note: my water sits around 350 PPM out of the tap.)
Day 21 - Height: 5"
I feel like the training is about done now, I'll have to touch it up here and there as she stretched, but I'm going to let her go at this point now the branches are about where I want them. She has started to stretch up a tiny bit, but I'm hoping she's going to launch up now that she's all set. Nutrient-wise, she's good as gold, has been taking on nutrients just fine with no detrimental effects so I'll start pushing them up a little this week, following my usual feed chart. A very easy going plant so far!
Day 25 - Height: 6.5"
This plant seems to be working with the training and is starting to fill out and shoot up now, so I think she'll be okay and not stunted like I feared. I'm still a little concerned about how thin the branches are, but hopefully they'll fill out as she starts to stretch up. Really nice plant to grow though, she has taken on nutrients like a champ and is looking nice and healthy. She's started to show sex about Day 22-23 ish, so we should get some pre-flowers over the next few days, which should put her on a pretty normal timeline despite the heavy training, maybe half a week, to a week behind, but no big deal. Interesting week ahead I reckon, where we should get a much better idea how she'll turn out.
Thanks for reading, stay healthy and grow well x
Looking good, I once had a plant that had fairly similar symptoms to this one however I believe mine was caused after a brief powdery mildew infection. The plant continued to have hard leaves but was still producing buds well. It's hard to tell sometimes and it could just be a weird random thing but I thought I'd let you know about my experience with similar symptoms.
Happy growing!
Peace ✌️
@UKPersonal420, It's weird when they do something like that isn't it, I guess it's all learning though! Appreciate you telling your experience, if nothing else it makes me feel slightly better haha! 👌
