One thing you have working in your favor as far as deciding what to do with the plants, there are 4 of them. An ideal situation for eeny, meeny, miney, moe! :Rasta:

Ridiculous. But in this case semi-accurate! :laughtwo:
 
Happy Monday all! :ciao: I hope everyone had a nice weekend. It was HOT around here! Here is a little update on the GSC ladies. They are plugging along okay so far. Here is GSC #1 at 52 days old:

She's doing well and training is going good, but she's getting some pale leaves down low. I'm wondering if I should add some CalMag in the next feed. They just got 5.5 gram/gal MC ( .5g bump up) along with silica, SNS 209, and some fulvic acid.
Next up is GSC #2 at 52 days:

It's still hard to see if I did the FIM correctly but she's green and happy and growing well.
Next up is GSC #3 at 31 days:

She is freaking gorgeous! She is untouched so far and getting too tall. I will be growing her outside and plan to top and train her. My question (for all of them), is can I go ahead and move them into their final pots (7 gal for #1 and 10 for #2 and #3) now? Here is a top view of #3:

Yoikes! :cheesygrinsmiley: Last but not least is #4 at 29 days:

She’s a pretty little thing too. Just need to get her straightened up!
Hope everyone is doing well! :peace::love:
 
I'd say go ahead with the upcan, and it may even solve the yellowing leaf problem on #1. 5.5g in veg is getting up there and leaving you little headroom for flower.

Plants are looking as happy as can be. :bravo:

Thanks Shed. I’ve been bumping all of them to try to get #1 to stop with the leaves, and #3 does show a slight tip burn so I think the upcan may be beneficial too. I need to start treating them as separate individuals now. ;) I guess I should start hardening #2- #4.
 
Hi Boo.

Your girls are looking good. Any particular reason you're not using one of the sponsored nutes for this grow? I know you're in the U.S. and therefore, should have access to both.

Hi HashGirl and thank you! I believe when this comparative started it was only the @weedseedsexpress sponsorship aligned with it (as well as using/showing sponsored lights). I went into it with a nutrient plan I was comfortable with and then when the sponsored nutes were offered I decided to stick with my original plan. I did gladly accept the additional sponsorship of @Sierra Natural Science 209 since I do use it and had planned to use it with the comparative (and I have been). I also have GeoFlora nutes that were gifted to me and that I've also recently won, so I didn't think it would be right for me to accept more. I have @GeoFlora Nutrients and do plan to use them on at least one of the GSC outdoor plants....but I am sitting and watching all of you guys figure it out first! :high-five:
 
I'm going to need a sleeve of those and a large milk please when they're done!

The last two nodes on #3 have started pushing out 11 fingered leaves. They are HUUUGE!

Love seeing a plant sporting 11's! I take it as a good sign!
 
:ciao: Hi. I wanted to get GSC #1 settled into her new/final container before I messed around with the others. I'm still getting used to the bags...not sure if I like them yet. I think she was happy for the upgrade. :cheesygrinsmiley:
PXL_20210608_191244134.jpg

ROOTS!
Here she is snuggled into her new bag, sitting solo in the 2x4.
PXL_20210608_195313987.PORTRAIT.jpg

Cozy.
PXL_20210608_195404943.jpg

She’s starting to get a “rectangular“ shape now. My big concern is, what do I put under her for drainage? :hmmmm:

Here’s a trio shot of 2-4 under the @Atreum Lighting Hydras. The tent is open right now and they are a sponsor, sooooo. :high-five:

Finally, here is a quickie of the FIMed #2.

Have a good week! :peace:
 
Nice roots, and I especially like the new white ones near the top! I think that cloth pot looks great, except for the silly grommet hole that only @MrSauga could love.

Got an old broiler pan with the slits in the top?

Cool rectangle you have going there. Well done!

That was my practice bag. Lol. For the summer. When I thought 7 gallon bags were gonna be perfect! The 10 gals will have some soon. Broiler pan is a good idea but I don’t have one. I will ponder on that for a while.
 
LOLOL! :welldone:
