Hello to whoever is reading. Last update was a while ago, figure I finally so one.
Today is the start of wek 9. Remember this is a photo plant.
I had more issues with mites and started applying captain Jack's . That didn't seem to do too much and I switched to organocide. That stuff is stinky but it seemed to do more than my previous two pest solutions. Since this is kind of a fish oil based product, it leaves a residue on the plants which is actually reassuring. I applied it last on Sunday and plan to do another spray down before lights off tonight. And hopefully then a maintenance spraying 10-14 days after that.
Also topped the plants and started scrogging. My smaller plant was too far down for the scrog and instead of boosting it up I'm doing some LST and hope to continue weaving the bigger one through the scrog while the smaller one's nodes reach up.
I was itching to switch lights to flowering but with my bug problem I refocused on tackling that first.
Plants were watered 12 hrs ago, hence they are somewhat droopy but they have been perking up and I expect them in their full glory tomorrow.
The bigger one had lost several leaves due to the bug stress, but they are much better now.
Lots of learning going on in my first grow.
Thanks!
Karl
