This week I defoliated. Waited three weeks into flowering, to not stress them like I did last grow. She is rewarding me with some fat bud growth at many sites. I overwatered beginning of this week, but hey seemed to have taken it well.
I did another amendment. The first one last week was a test, to see how they responded, they took it well. Just compare last week to this one.
The amendment I did:
- 5 liters of worm castings
- 2 cups bonemeal
- 1 cup wood ash
- 1 cup microlife
I layered this on top of my pots, covering this with bio-coco (pre fertilized) to ward of gnats. The gnats have been getting less and less. They don't like the coco that much, while humidity is just the same and last week higher since I did some more watering.
I watered with the perma tea. While this is pretty acidic (PH 5), I can amend with more wood-ash, if you don't and follow this recipe, don't do too much wood-ash since it will kill off your micro organisms.
I lowered the light diagonally since the outer right plant is longer and closer to it. The SP 3000 is still performing as you can see. Temps were a bit higher with the lights so low, so far the Orange Hill Special doesn't seem to mind. Im totally amazed with the results so far.
Look for the great end of year deals at www.mars-hydro.com.
Thank you for checking in on me again!
