Photo Period Plant

[Sueet]

Oh yea, I can see the pretty flowers now <3

 

[Ice cream]

Should i defoliate the middle of the plant or leave alone? I was thinking about tying down some branches just a tad.

Thoughts/advice

 

[Sueet]

You can. I tend to keep my plants in more of a fluffy christmas tree state, but I do remove leaves and branches that point towards the center of the plant, and I remove the ones from way down low where they just don't grow.

Thanks @Sueet

Removing leaves always make me nervous so I am cleaning out the middle leaves that I feel do nothing for the plant.

Good Morning All

Today is Day 31 when light were flipped. Still being fed 4 grams of MegaCrop and 1/2 teaspoon of Bud Explosion. She is throwing out lots of pistils and drinking a lot.

Thoughts anyone? This is only the 2nd time for growing photo`s

 

[Roy Growin]

Looking great - they are gonna be fatties

 

[garybo]

I'm counting 6 buds on the front side, probably a few on the back side. Great looking plant @Ice cream.

I've used MegaCrop for years with success, never tried Bud Explosion, since my ladies buds are in their infancy, I may have to try it.

Thanks for the update and keep them coming.

Surely you are not growing her on your computer table.....lol

 

[Ice cream]

Ha. She is in a 36x36x72 tent

Good Afternoon All

Today the little lady is on Day 37 in flower and I just noticed some color changes on leaves. Interesting!

@GainesvilleGreen @garybo @Roy Growin @Sueet

 

[Ice cream]

Do you think the color changes are from temperature dropping

 

[Sueet]

It could be, but for some of them it's just built into the genetics.

Lookin pretty good, but the leaves are clawing a bit (droopy/tip pointing down), and it kind of looks like the beginning of nitrogen toxicity perhaps. It's hard to see the actual shade of green with the light reflections on it, so I may be wrong. There are a few other things that can cause it too (like overwatering, damaged roots or being rootbound for example) , but I just see it as something to keep an eye on.

 

[Ice cream]

Thanks @Sueet . I will lower the feed tomorrow when feeding or may just water only. Root bound is possible as it’s a photo in a 3 gallon

 

[garybo]

@Ice cream, nice hearing from you and thanks for the update. She looks healthy overall, though I like to thin out the lower and middle area of excess leaves, my thinking is to direct the energy to the buds more so than the lower leaves.
The few upper leaves in the second picture look off color, maybe it's a light reflection.

As those buds get bigger, she will reduce the nutrients (the mobile nutrients that is) from the lower leaves and direct the power to the upper part of the plant. I think @Sueet's diagnoses is right on about possible toxicity.

Let us know how she is doing, and don't forget to call sometime.

 

[Ice cream]

Thank you @garybo. With feeding her every 4-5 days, I think I will just give her plain ph`d water today. Both of you agree? @Sueet

 

[Ice cream]

Good Morning-.

I cut the feed back from 4 grams of MegaCrop to 2 grams so I will see how she responds.

 

[Sueet]

That is what I would have suggested, just a reduction, never plain water when feeding MC, she can't get anything from the soil because that isn't how it works with MC. (MC direct feeds the food into the plant with the water, there is no interaction with soil microbes, so those populations are frail at best and not really working for the plant if they exist at all)

 

[Ice cream]

Thanks @Sueet Excellent feedback on soil...

 

[Billy Big Buds]

Good Morning All

Here’s a bud pick of plant in day 22 when lights were flipped to 12-12. @Sueet @garybo @GainesvilleGreen

Looks great mate I generally defoliate the shade leaves every 3 weeks of flower to give the buds plenty of airflow and light
