You could tie them sideways around the pot edge if you want to squeeze just a little more veg time for them.The blueberries have recovered from their calmag deficiency and are now draining the 1/4 gallon I give them in 3-4 days. I fully believe having the reservoirs at 1/2 full gave them too much water and they got comfortable where they were and didn't show any aggressive growth. With less water, there's more of a moisture gradient in the container which would force roots to seek the water further below. These are now at the edge of the pots so I'm not going to tie them down further and just let them grow up a few inches. Then flip.
The new growth is a nice green color and not showing any calmag defs, so I think we're set for the flip. I'm going out of town for the next 5 days so the current plan is to up-pot the AP when I'm back, then flip 3-4 days after that. See everyone next week!
Oo noo .. na she is tough she will be ok.Hi everybody! It's good to be back home after vacation to San Diego, CA. Great trip, great experiences, it was a lovely time. I had no idea dispensaries can deliver there...so it was awesome having the weed store show up at my hotel since I didn't get a rental car. Super cool!
Anyway, the blueberries look great although there's some older fans that aren't recovering from the calmag issue a couple weeks ago. This was to be expected, and the new growth is a nice dark green with light tips, which tells me the feed they received just before I left worked out. The res' were down to maybe an 1/8th of a gallon. I watered everything PH 6.4, PPM 400 with just calmag @ 5ml / gallon. Quarter gallon per res, and the rest to the AP.
As you can see there's great growth from the last week and the older fans on both plants are dying, which is fine. I haven't pulled them yet, but I'm sure tomorrow when there's more time in the day I'll clean both plants up and will be thinking of flipping in the next few days I think.
Now...I have some ... sad? bad? news. The AP definitely went through her pot of water and experienced quite the dry cycle. I'm confident she'll recover, but just as a heads up, this pic might affect some viewers!
I knew this was going to happen, but I didn't think it'd be quite as bad. Some of the younger fans towards the center of the plant are definitely dead, but everything else is a nice shade of green, and after 40 minutes of being watered, here's what I see in my cam view:
She's already starting to stand up and tomorrow morning she'll be right back to where she needs to be. So I think she'll be fine!
Also, my humidity sensor didn't update correctly 2 days after I left which put the entire tent into a "needs water" state, meaning the humidifier didn't run for 80% of the time. The range was 56% during the day to 33% during the night. Not the best thing that could've happened...but it's not the worst either.
It's been a full day of traveling a few thousand miles so tomorrow I'll grab a seat and go through the entire tent clipping dead leaves and any nodes that won't make it. I'm going to really consider the timeline when I do this, because we might be flipping in a few days. Thanks for stopping by! Hopefully the AP pulls through and I'm sure she will...but the next few days will show me more.
Been pretty good for me. Looks good on your end too. Girls all nice and green . Ah smoke break. Lmao. Be back soon. Lmao. Got keep trollingHello everyone, I hope it's been a great week/weekend! I finally have a few minutes to get in the tent and check out how the first week of flower has gone. The biggest changes have been that the light was turned to 100% last week, 2 days into flower schedule. I've kept the KS2500 at 75% and 18" throughout veg, so now it's at 100% and the plants have grown up to be 12" below the light. I can see visible stretching, which is great! At least 6" in the last week.
I've continued to defol here and there when I can't tuck a fan that's blocking a node site. So far all 3 canopies are more or less the same height, so that's good there. I'm no stranger to supercropping, so if that's in our future it'll be done in the next few weeks. Hopefully I timed it well enough that that won't be needed though.
The blueberries are thirstier than ever and are draining the 1/4 gallon + they've been getting fairly quickly. The AP is also going about 2 days between waterings. Now that I'm seeing the size of all the canopies I've decided not to mess with uppotting the AP, so she'll stay in her 1 gallon until she's done. It's going to add more work (more frequent watering) but it's taken her this long to get to this point and I really don't want to jeopardize her stretch/flower production.
Thanks for stopping in to see the show! I hope everyone has a great week this week!
I wouldn’t mess with them in flower! That’s me though. WardHello everyone, and happy middle of the week! Today was feeding day for all 3 plants, they all got week 6 on the FF schedule. I'm keeping them a week behind on the nute schedule on purpose because the schedule only has 8 weeks to move through the various powders and supplemental bottled nutes and both of these are 9 week strains (I'm planning on 10 weeks, though, as it seems most flowering estimates are a week too short.)
The blueberries received an entire gallon of feed as they're now powering through a 1/2 gallon every 1.5 days. The full res should give me at least 3 days before they need anything further. The AP is down to needing inputs every other day, and will soon go to needing watered/fed every day. Not quite there yet though.
The development has been blowing my mind, though. I went back through my first journal of the Blue Dream and had the same development on that plant 3+ weeks into flip, whereas here I'm seeing it at week 2. Very cool to see, and I'm getting really excited at how all this is going now. I can't really tell right now if the stretch is slowing, but I suspect (and hope!) it'll be done by next Monday. Every bud site is bulking up now and I'm super curious to see how the stacking goes, especially with the 3 soluble powders from FF. I've heard good stuff about them and so far whatever it is I'm giving them is certainly working.
On that last picture above, do you see the tallest cola on the right hand side? It looks like it's above the temp probe, but it's not (it's just the angle of the dangle, eh?) it's at the same height. However, that cola is significantly taller than the other ones. Any ideas on how to get that to slow down without laying it down sideways? I believe @Light Addict has said in the past they squeeze the stem to soften up the internals, but don't lay it over and don't over-do the squeeze. This forces the plant to repair that stem and will slow the upward growth, allowing the stuff around it to catch up. Is that correct? How does everyone handle a wild stem like that without super cropping?
Thanks for dropping by and checking out the progress!

What wouldn't you just continue the last week's nute schedule for an extra week or two at the end?I'm keeping them a week behind on the nute schedule on purpose because the schedule only has 8 weeks to move through the various powders and supplemental bottled nutes and both of these are 9 week strains (I'm planning on 10 weeks, though, as it seems most flowering estimates are a week too short.)

I'd be concerned with not keeping up with the normal flowering progression always being a week behind.
