The stretch was in full swing this week ๐ธ Both plants showed strong vertical growth, with the flowering transition now clearly underway.
โข Height approx. ~90 cm
โข Strong vertical expansion
โข Stretch phase fully active
Light intensity was increased to ~850 PPFD โ๏ธ and the fixture had to be raised slightly as the plants continued growing closer to the light.
Clear phenotypic differences became more pronounced:
โข Pheno #2 stretched significantly and developed very large fan leaves. Its structure is compact, with side branches growing close to the main stem, creating a dense canopy. To improve light penetration, around 4โ6 large fan leaves were removed โ๏ธ
โข Pheno #1 continues to grow more evenly, with side branches spreading outward and staying closer in height to the main top.
Leaf posture also differs between the phenotypes:
โข Pheno #2 shows strong praying, especially in the upper canopy โ๏ธ
โข Pheno #1 shows more moderate praying
Water demand increased during the stretch phase:
โข ~4L per watering until runoff ๐ง
Feeding this week:
โข 1x Orgatrex
โข 1x Greenhouse Bio Enhancer
โข Otherwise water + BioBizz CalMag
Environment remained stable:
โข ~25ยฐC temperature
โข ~55% RH ๐ก๏ธ
White pistils are now clearly visible across the plant, especially on Pheno #2, confirming the transition into early flower.
Overall this week showed strong stretch, increasing flower formation, and very clear phenotypic differences between the two plants ?๐ฅ
