Hello, Dolfom. Thanks for entering my area and follow my diaries. It will be great for me to share with you guys some of my growing issues. The one that you've commented about the outstanding growth of primary leafs is giving me some headaches due to the fact that almost in a ten days period the primary leafs oversized and mainly the tremendous hardness of the stems on the leafs didn't allow me to apply some of the most worthable stress techniques that allow the growth to have the optimal development.
Normally the 42 FastBuds strains that I've already grown present mostly this kind of strong secondary development. Normally not oversized height grown and a fine side branches development, but this last Lemon Pie is revealing a huge leaf development and the knots and internodes are very close and narrow from each other. This density of leafs is delaying the development of this grow and it was necessary to apply a kind of extreme technique that was to break two side branches, knowing that the grow is automatic, that the time from seed to harvest is short, that a technique as such will delay at least one week to the grow recover from this extreme technique and that the technique was applied almost on the verge of the veg phase to blossom phase.
Despite of it, no worries, the grow has recover from this measure, the growth hormones had been redirected to the secondary branches and despite of knowing that I will sacrifice some yeld, the flowers will have the size, density and quality that I expect. A big hugh and Jah God enlightening our path...
