I haven't decided on which method to use. I may try topping, but definitely doing that in the cup challenge. Maybe supercrop, depending on whether to raise my light and have different heights on canopy. Probably just another bender (LST) so this be the right category for her.
I will be trying a different soil mix as well. Buildasoil mix with same brand additives. Put into the Honor The Plant seed starter and of to THC land! Fingers crossed.
Same as other
Week 1 not much going yet, just a lil gal not doing much. Trying a lowered light with 30% approximately 20 inches away. She is growing vigorously out the gates. My other gal is doing the same. Will have pics up next week when I believe the new soil with show better growth.
Same as other post
Weekly update
Week 2 plus Explosive growth
I used light top dress with added Great White and increased the PPFD. Very stout which I tend to dislike, but for this grow is fitting.
Week 3 update
I guess I could've put this gal in the benders class as well. I didn't think they'd grow so unform since different breeders. It must definitely be environmental factors. Started LST on her as well. Weekly light top dressing of mustard seed meal and craft blend. I hope the light intensity does keep them so small.
Week 4 update
Topdress and defoiliation for light penetration. Adjusted LST for an even canopy. Plant keeps its form.
Weekly update: Week 5
I released my girls last week at first sign of stretching. I personally do not like to cuase any stress to my girls. I stopped LST to allow her to stretch and yet her shape is still held with a even canopy, any differences are minimal in height. I use this to create more airflow and prevent bud rot. Usual topdress and enjoying the vigorous growth. Defoiliated the canopy as well for increased light penetration.
Week 6
Added Buildasoil Bloom since she started filling out. Another light topdress and coconut water as well.
Week 7 Update
She stopped all vertical growth. Starting to stack up and get thick. Light height is still pretty close at 20 inches and 600PPFD. Top dressed with Craft Blend, added Micronutrients, Aloe vera flakes, Mustard seed meal, and Great White Mycorrhizae. She seems a lil ahead of her sister.
8th Week
Last topdress. She has a sweeter smell than her sister. She's has more Frost as well, but is slightly smaller. Finally got approval for my grow in a cup container. Light distance is 20 in with a PPFD 650 and aiming for a 30 DLI. I had it written down somewhere.
Finally starting my solo cup challenge. I was awaiting approval for my container. Since I finally was approved and chose my seed. I chose an autoflower of course, but I am not sure whether we have to actually train our small plants. I really hope we don't have to, since I don't have room in my tiny tent. I am growing Vanilla Scoops (Vanilla Kush (Rocs cut) X Purple Scoops Auto) by Rocbudinc
I will be using a lil seed starter and hope the air pruning helps. I am attaching the pics used for my approval as well as my genetics. I will germ tomorrow. Actually going to post on my other incase required to train. I would rather bend than top an auto,
Forbidden Runtz finished
Just over 3oz. And her sister the same so a total of 6 oz for the last run of my lil tent.
2.3x2.3x5.3 tent retired. 4x4 going up since I have a Mars Hydro FC-E6500! A wonderful grow with you great growmies. I give Forbidden Runtz a 6/10. My gf showing off the buds. I gave her the harvest since she enjoys effects. The terps smell alright, but the effects are moderate. This will be the last time I grow Fastbuds. I don't like train my autoflowers, but love growing with everyone!
