Jack Herer Auto Day 53
First of a couple updates today. Got around to most everyone's journal this morning and finally checked on the girls in flower. They don't wake up until 11am but this Jack really caught my attention. She is turning into a monster despite me really not doing much with her. I decided to do her some justice today so spent a little time spreading her out for a bit better light penetration and I defoliated about 20-30 leaves. Still nervous about over defoliating this girl (first time with autos so don't know how they respond so I am erring on the side of caution) and stunting her during the stretch.
She is REALLY drinking. Her next drink, probably tomorrow will be just plain water....gonna mix her up a little from the ACT. Don't ask why.....cause I don't really have a reason but something is telling me to give her just water.
I measured this girl and she is getting large. She is about 22" across and really thick as you can see. Her stem is getting massive (pics next time on the stem). Smells are starting to pick up a little (she didn't smell much at all in veg). She will likely get moved back down to the veg tent in a few days when I go to flip the Blue Dream (she's getting real close to being ready to flip). I will just swap the plants in their respective tents.
I was playing with the idea of running the Jack in both tents (moving her from the flower tent at 11pm back into the veg tent.....and moving her back to the flower tent at 11am) but thats a lot of work and I am a lazy grower. But we will see....I change my mind a lot while experimenting. I have a feeling the Northern Lights is going to need a large portion of this veg tent, she's gonna be big!
