Re: AfricanGrower's 1st Hydro Journal-Ebb&Flow/Bubblelicious 2013
Mini Update
So someone with a pair of scissors and possibly a chainsaw paid a visit to my Bubbs this morning. I'm glad to have 1 Bubb still standing strong
Now a moment of silence for Bubb lost during last nights attack
Now to add a little biology lesson to the mix. As you can see here, the Phloem and Cambium layers are clearly seen incircled in red. In reality the small space between this and the blue Xylem layer was saturated with sap. It continued to flow out of the stem like an open wound.
Now THESE roots are quite a sight! Pearly white, and very even root development all the way through the medium. Now if Bubb A (the smaller plant) has roots this big, then Bubb B is definitely root bound, and will show slower signs of outward growth the next few weeks.
This is just an idea of what space I am going to try and cover with just ONE plant instead of the initially planned 2. This is 4ft x 2ft.
So I have topped this lady for the last time. I did 8 sites, the main growths from the stem.
And with this, all the inner growth should be able to catch up in height with the edges. For that Vanilla Ice Flat Top (as Capn put it
)
Now with the extra space, I have moved the two bagseed from underneath the grow tent, to about level with everything else. I am sure that one of these bagseed has already started showing preflowers and is looking like a lady at the moment.
(I have been playing around with this 'Panorama' setting on my camera, and I must say it is pretty entertaining
