Just a wee bit more training to open it up. Afghan Cherries is starting to give off a bit of a Funky stink to her.
@wahatchi . If your intrigued by the fact that they actually thrive on physical damage (to an extent) you might be interested in the little experiment I am currently running.
I took two clones from the same LA Confidential photo that were as identical as possible. I am shaping them as close to the same as I can. Everything from nutes to lighting⌠will be the same for both.
However, one of them (I call her the twisted sister) has been tightly twisted, severely bent and slightly broken and splinted.
Of course the objective is clear.
After the initial stunting from the damage, will the twisted sister overtake the pampered sister?
Feel free to pop in and check it out. The more the merrier!
Hope you donât mind my dropping by and inviting but I saw your post and thought you might be interested.
Be blessed beyond measure.
@MoBilly Thanks for the invite! I donât mind one bit. I will definitely be popping over there. Sounds interesting
The other day when I was training the ladies I took little miss Cali-O a little too far and split her in too. It was a pretty clean split, so I wasnât worried. But thenâŚ
Electricians tape or duct tape works wonders (been there lol).
I read that some aloe juice on the wound before taping speeds up the healing too.
But thenâŚI was moving the fan and it fell straight on top of the Cali-O She ended up being fine. Just lost one side of that top.
@MoBilly I definitely did use duct tape
and life is good!
Most definitely @G-paS
Iâm amazed that something like that didnât kill it but they are so very fragile in other aspects.
Hey dude! I love your grow! Can you tell us some specs about your setup? So youâre using a 2x2 tent right? Whatâs your ventilation and light setup? How about the soil compilation and ferts? Whatever youâre doing youâre doing great!! It will be interesting to see how the splintered branch turns out
Hey @Dalorean thanks very much! Yep, I bought a 2x2 Oppolite grow tent package that came with 4in inline fan and filter and a 300w led off of amazon a few years ago for $250 as I was looking for the cheapest option possible. It has worked out great so far! I am using Happy Frog Soil and have been using the BioCanna line for fertilizer. Itâs my first time using this line, but I wanted something simple and clean and so far Iâm liking it. You definitely need to feed at about 1/4 strength from what they suggest but with a ph and ppm meter it hasnât been too difficult to figure out.
Just fed the ladies with 7 ml Bio Flores 7 ml Bio Boost and 1 ml Bio Rhizo with a PH of 5.8 and a ppm of 893. Day 29 of Flower
In my research it seem you donât really want to go below 5.8 ph, no? If I continue to increase dosage during flower it will definitely dip well below 5.5. Should I keep it at 5.8?
In soil I donât go below 6 and try to keep close to 6.5. I do this based on a shared article on OG. That and some others I try to follow. Just me.
Thanks for that info @G-paS âŚthats what I thought, is as close to 6.5 as possible. I guess I either dial the nutes back or use some ph up. In my mind itâd be better to hit the number ânaturally.â Maybe Iâll test that sometime
