You correct it by fertigation frequency and concentration. Read here then ask any questions you have because im sire you will have.Tha
Thanks for the info Zen_Seeker.
I went to my grow shop and asked about watering practice in coco. I was originally watering every third or fourth day when the pot got light. I was told I need to water 2-3 times a day and keep the pot saturated. So for the last couple days I been watering 2x a day...no change if anything the condition is a little worse. I also have leaf tips curling down so maybe nitrogen toxicity? How do you correct a nitrogen problem like that?
Zen_seeker these girls are so thick with undergroth Im not sure where to start to defoliate. How much do I take off the bottom and will it stunt them defoliating this late?I think you need to defoliate. I don’t net until I clear the bottom a bit, but then I grow them larger before I SCROG.
Nice and green!
I see Aqua Man’s been directing you too. Excellent. He’s who you need to listen to.Zen_seeker these girls are so thick with undergroth Im not sure where to start to defoliate. How much do I take off the bottom and will it stunt them defoliating this late?
I went ahead and defoliated the best I can. Wow I took alot of greenage off doing so. The bottom is mostly open now so i should have good circulation there. Thanks for the heads up Zen_seekerI don’t recall where I saw the chart but there is one that shows how the leaves work for and effect the plant. Great for a defoliation guide.
You want to remember that anything below a foot from the canopy isn’t going to keep growing. It’s more like reserve nutes storage.
Has stretch started? You want to remove small nowhere branches to direct growth to the branches you’re saving. Then the stretch will open things up better as well.
Thanks Zen_Seeker. I still have some trimming to do but I will wait a few days before I do. I'll shoot a top view of them here soon.Give it at least 3 - 4 days before doing anything more with them. It’s the longest I can go.
If I’d known you’d just dive in I would have directed a bit better and suggested you wait an hour or two after watering. (Helps with LST but not 100% for trimming. Might just gum up the trimmers more but seems to help.)
Regardless you seem to have nailed it. Good size fan leaves left and amount from the pic. Give us a few top shots in the future, even if it’s just one or two you pull out for maintenance.
Looking down after trimmingThanks Zen_Seeker. I still have some trimming to do but I will wait a few days before I do. I'll shoot a top view of them here soon.
little grandmommy girls look perfect. im so excited to see them flowerLooking down after trimming
You familiar with LST? Between that and trimming any leaves blocking flower sites you want to plump up it should be fine.little grandmommy girls look perfect. im so excited to see them flower
Hey Zen I did the trimming and tied back the branches useing coated soft wire. Heres another picture showing the girls came through like a champ after defoliating. I am however into week two of flower. My ceiling height is a concern so im actually happy these girls are short. My last grow was wedding cake...and talk aboit stretching, I got light burn from being to close to the light. Heres a couple pictures this morning after the trimming. I wish I would have topped them again. Live and learn I guess.You familiar with LST? Between that and trimming any leaves blocking flower sites you want to plump up it should be fine.
You want to stop any trimming or LST by the second week of flower.
I like to TOP mine and FIM to get 3x more. But try not to rush straight into flower. These aren’t autos so stretch them out and enjoy your choice.
I used to just use softwire for LST but using budclips this time. Not bad. To $ but reusable.
