***WEDNESDAY'S TRAINING UPDATE***
Hi gang!
Well I certainly had my hands full this morning. It had been a few days since I was able to get into the garden and get my hands dirty. Now that has changed. Got everything bent, tucked and topped. It's amazing how quick the girls will grow if you leave them be.
My goal is to produce an even canopy across all the girls. That means I need to constantly bend new shoots and pin down the big ones. I'm always moving fan leaves and tucking them under the tops and branches. I don't believe in removing them so, I try my hardest to tuck tuck tuck.
Again, I still haven't transplanted the last girl yet. She's still in a 3 gallon pot. The problem is, if I transplant her to a bigger pot, she will not fit in that closet. It's tight. So, I'll take my time. Cause I'm so good at procrastinating
Now, take my hand and let's take a look at what I've done!
ORKA
Isn't she beautiful? This girl tickles my heart every time I see her doing her thing. Those two shoots make me think she's yelling "hey, look at me!" As you can see I'm trying to pin down those arms and allow for more to pop up.
8BALL KUSH
Now the 8Ball has been doing some wonderful things. My plan with her is to train her to have an even canopy. Similar to a flux. But I've never done a flux before. So, here's my attempt.
Since she has done everything right up till now, I figure I'll top her. She is one of the last of the trained girls to get a topping so nows the time. I fully expect that this will allow for the other lower shoots to fire up so I can train them inward in some way.
TOP DAWG
Top Dawg, what can I say, she's been a problem from the get go. And every time she seems to be pulling through I forget that she's supposed to be drinking just water and I feed her with the rest. **palm to face** duh**.
So, it's not her fault I simply haven't given her an honest shot yet. I decided to top her as well. It probably wasn't a good idea since she's under enough stress already but it's done.
JACK HERER
Jack has been topped once and she's doing great. I'm splitting the two tops apart and forcing lower growth to take off and continue to add to the canopy. She's a fighter though, I've had to replace her ties twice because she pulls them outta the dirt. It shows in her stem.l, it's beefing right up.
SUPER HAZE
She hasn't received any training at all. And I thought very hard today whether or not I was going to top her but then decided that when the autos arrive, she will join them in the flower room under a 18/6 light schedule. I'll flower her out as a non trained girl. Only done this once before and I love how it turned out. Marijuana is a beautiful plant and I like to see her in her natural form to. But isn't she just tall and lanky? Probably not the strongest of seeds. But she's alive.
Now let's close the door until tonight to see how well they've rebounded. Can't thank you enough for joining me today. Your company brings joy to my heart and makes my life a little better. Have a great day folks!
