Growth Stage: Early Flower / Stretch
Environment:
Temperature: ~26 °C
Humidity: ~60 % RH
Light intensity: increased to ~850 PPFD. ☀️
Watering / Feeding:
Watered every 2–3 days, based on pot weight, using RO water + CalMag. 💧
During this week, the plants received 1x BioTabs Bio PK.
Observations:
Stretch continued clearly during Week 5.
Apricot #2 stretched even more and is now definitively the tallest plant in the tent.
Apricot #1 stretched more moderately. To balance the canopy, #1 was placed on a crate so both plants now sit at roughly the same height. 🙂
The first pistils became clearly visible at the forming bud sites, marking the transition into proper flowering. 🌸
Both plants look vital and healthy overall. Leaf posture is mostly neutral, although #2 still shows slightly drooping tips, which remained stable.
Notes:
Week 5 represents the overlap between stretch and early bud initiation. With increased PPFD and the first Bio PK application, the plants are now fully entering the flowering phase. 🌱💪
