Day 84
So, i've taken some more photos of my girls.
Not a lot has been happening since the last proper update but as has been the pattern with my plants (ebb and flow), i'm expecting a period of growth some time this week after a few days of pause mode.
The first two (Kaylee Fry and Aeryn Sun) have not been defoliated as per the guide i read on the green haired girl's website.
The flowers look reasonable but i'd like them to be bigger. Here's the pic:
Next we have the bald chicks (Caprica Six and Christine Kochanski) after defoliation; as you can see a few leaves were left around the bottom. Although they look a bit bigger than the other two, this could simply be the
shaved pubes effect, you know, when a guy shaves his downstairs to make things look bigger. So far i've not seen any negative effects from this, but I need to allow more time before i'm prepared to do this to the other two.
The feeding routine has changed a little, i'm now giving plain water every third feed, with two consecutive nute feeds. (N,N,P).
I prefer to give 1ML each of canna a & b per litre of water over two feeds rather than 2ML per litre; this way i'm delivering 12MLs over the course of four days. The cal-mag remains the same at 0.5ML per litre. Each prepared feed is 6 litres, delivered at 1.5L per plant. Needless to say, my soak up towels get a good workout.
