Start of week 4, roots coming out of pot so have transplanted on day 22 into final pot.
Plant is pushing out node five at the moment.
Update week 4 day 2: A couple of days ago I dropped the PH to 5.8 from 6.3 and have added in Acti-Vera, a different Seaweed Extract fortified with Iron, and starting today Rhino Skin silica. Just look at the difference in the colouration of this plant in under 48 hours... wow.
Update week 4 day 2: I think I've managed to overwater. Not going to water today.
Update week 4 day 4. She is showing the same pattern as KKA 2 days ahead. After repot she is stretching out her main fan leaves, stem is thickening, and new growth appears everywhere.
Day 25.5 flushed with 30l of PH lowered water then fertigated with 5l.
Day 26: Height: 9cm Width: 18cm Nodes: 6
I have named her Bertha
Day 27: H9.5 W19.5 N7
Day 28: Fertigated 2.5l @ 15:00
.
Day 28: Photo and Measure 00:40 H13cm W21cm N7
Weekly growth data:
From 6cm Height to 13cm +117%
From 9cm Width to 21cm +133%
From 4 primary nodes to 7 +75%
Summary: Really good week for Bertha, she hasn't grown at quite the same rate as Karen, but she's not a million miles behind, I think she will have a big week 5.
Day 28.5: I have changed my mind about training and done a little gentle LST. Why? Well I realised I would have trouble with light levels and the younger plants... so I've decided to try and keep the older two from stretching too tall.
I realise this will mess up height measurements but it'll even out.
