DAY 21 FLOWERING: Howdy folks. Here we are on day 21 flowering for these willing and healthy Zamnesia ladies. They took no time at all to relish back up again following their defol earlier in the week. I took a fair bit of leaf matter out and also did a little popcorn stripping too. Now it looks as if I never did anything at all. This used to be my dilemma with the debate surrounding defoliation, however , the size and shape of the leaves that were removed, would have been huge and needed a lot of space and airflow to remain healthy alone , never mind flourishing in flower !. Removing those leaves has not stunted the flowering process or halted the stretch period either. The smaller helpers have now become the bigger powerhouses and filled the plants frame with big green spectrum grabbers. I am going to remove some more leaf to allow more airflow and light to get around the multiple bud sites that litter the canopy from every angle but have been shaded and tucked away behind leaves. Getting light on to the stem is a goal too . If light gets there , so can fresh air !. They have all grown a lot this week and containing them is going to be fun as the get buds fattening too. I am considering putting my new light in for a little wider coverage now as I think they will need it possibly. I have a viparspectra p4000 getting Ansy in its box and it wants to get involved.lol The Girl scouts are thriving with so much growth on the #2 that she doesnt know which site to focus on so it going for them all. She has a lot of potential bid sites. #1 is a more natural growth pattern with lots of secondaries wanting g main status. The Amnesia haze had a good strip out to get that huge bushy appearance change , they have all cone back with a vengeance and will be stripped again a little now. The signs of calmag def are still around but I am trying to avoid having to add it in in flowering this run to see how much difference it makes with the feeds I am using. So far no issues with feeding at all and they are only showing a slight tip burn from the strength probably. I am still pulling them lateral each room visit to encourage them to find their own growing space that works for them and so far so good and they are playing ball. They are drinking all of their feed very quickly now so i will have to up the feed times now I think . I am feeding every 3 days with approx 3L each pot . seeing how the 1# Girl scout looked , I think every other day now . Let's see what the next week brings. Be happy growmies.
