Big Foot Scrog In Coco

[PE636]

The girls just woke up, looking real nice so #2 is being topped now and tied over..

The girls are drying up their pots within about 24 hours now. Maybe another 5 or 6 days then I will probably go straight to the 5 gallon fabric pots... #1 is a machine, may have to take a couple clones from her before the flip.. #2 is just recovering from the topping a couple of days ago, and is plugging along a bit slower as usual, but looking really nice.. Some more LST will be in order soon as the lower branches are starting to get to the top of the canopies..
Still feeding 1.5ml/L each of the AN A and B, annnnd I just realized I mixed up a batch at half that strength since I was using a 2x bigger container tonight! Ah well one drink of that will have to be ok lol, I will make more tomorrow. Now girl 1 seems to be a bit darker green than the slower growing girl 2. Both look fine I think but it's noticeable.. I wonder if she wants more food and might grow a bit faster....

They're both looking pretty happy. I think they will thank you when they go to they're new larger homes.

Yes, it's pretty much that time, I can see lots of roots at the drain holes..might have to do it later today actually.
I am considering getting a RO system to use with these ph perfect nutes.. Seems to be working fine but running a few points high using my 90ppm well water. I am gonna buy a big jug today to experiment with and see if it comes out lower. Also have to pick up a new clip on fan for the tent since mine has crapped out already after only a couple weeks into grow two! And my truck battery is toast or alternator maybe it's pretty old though lol so have to figure out /take care of that today too. My poor wallet.

Transplanted to the 5 gallon fabric pots tonight.

How are they taking to the new pots?

I'd say they are liking it from what I saw of their first day in them. Didn't get a chance to get pix of the roots, they weren't root bound but definitely a nice full pot, nice white fuzziness everywhere..
Lights on in a couple hours or less so will be checking on them soon...
Think I may have been under feeding a bit, they were both getting some pale leaves, and not growing so fast, so upped the last dose to 75 percent of the bottle recommended amount from 50 percent.
When I mixed the stronger nutes it took the ph lower to 5.8 so I am going to try that for now and hopefully avoid the whole RO water thing.
Have to get the deeper tray under the pots tonight and the 2x2 sticks to keep the pots out of runoff since I usually let it evaporate to help with the humidity.

Flying right along again, I think they definitely needed more nutes, #2 (the smaller plant) especially is looking way better, maybe she is just a heavy feeder and I have been starving her!
Took the ties off to transplant so just some bending /supercropping to keep them open and low for now, I will do some defoliating this weekend and get the scrog in place woohoo!

Cant wait to see the scrog

 

[PE636]

The girls are starting their day... Just did some more to open them up and encourage some lowers branches to hurry up in anticipation of the scrog net. Speaking of which, needs to be repaired, has a few loose and frayed strings from last harvest.

Booiiooing

Gotta get that scrog on this evening! (tomorrow morning for the girls)

 

[Scrogdawg]

I believe this is day 40 since breaking ground.. Ordered my bloom nutes last night so hoping to flip in approximately a week depending how things go.

 

[PE636]

For those who haven't seen my last journal, here is my scrog screen. Just 4 pieces of wood screwed together solidly and a bunch of screws and nails to tie off the string. It jams inside the tent poles, and get secured with good ol duct tape! I'll get rid of a couple leftover zip ties and fix the broken string this evening... Sadly I am out of pink string ah well soon it will be hidden from view by gorgeous green magic

 

[PE636]

Trimming down these humongous fabric pots! These seem more like 7 gallon than 5 hmm anyway... They are gonna take a ton more water than the 3 gallon ones last time so I had only filled them about 2 inches from the top but the loose flap was getting in the way of watering.. Just gave them 1.5 liters each and got barely any runoff. Mixing up another liter each then will see about getting the screen in....

 

[PE636]

All prepped for the screen! Which will have to wait til tomorrow unfortunately... My wood shrank and it's not a tight fit anymore! Never a good thing!! So tomorrow I will see the doctor er I mean doctor up some legs and it can just sit on those instead of hanging from the tent poles.

 

[PE636]

Actually I will likely get rid of a few big fan leaves that are going to end up getting smothered out under the screen.. Easier to clean them up now and it makes for easier watering

Scrogged!
