Week 4: Continued Growth and Training
Hello dear Weed friends,
welcome to my fourth weekly report on my exciting grow with four different strains: Lemon Gelato, Orange Sherbert, Apple Fritter and Bruce Banner.
This week I learned a lot and continued to care for and promote my plants.
I took the following steps:
I applied LST (Low Stress Training) to all plants to improve their shape and let more light reach the lower branches.
I topped the Apple Fritter several times, as it grows the fastest . I hope that this will result in many thick buds.
I topped the other three strains only on the main stem to allow them more side branches.
The plants look good, even though I sometimes doubt whether I am doing everything right. But I am confident that they will be even stronger and more beautiful in 1-2 weeks.
My next goal is to repot the plants in larger pots in 2 weeks and attach a net in the tent. This should help me distribute the plants evenly and use the space optimally. I also want to avoid having such a mess in the tent as last time. That made harvesting very difficult.
Another highlight this week was buying a new lamp: the Lumatek 300 Watt Pro Edition. This lamp is simply fantastic! It has a great illumination, a high efficiency and a cool look. It looks like a UFO! I am very happy with this investment and gave my old lamp to my brother. So it stays in the family.
I water my plants as needed with 1 liter of water each, to which I add 100 percent of the recommended fertilizer schedule. I use all options of the fertilizer, which you can read in the fertilizer directory.
I would also like to show you my timelapse video that I have been making since the first week. The video shows you how my plants have changed from week to week. It is really impressive to see how they have grown. I will update the video every four weeks and show you the latest video.
I hope you enjoyed my report and are looking forward to the next weeks. See you soon!
