Day 17- this round is still in good shape!
The 3 big babies are all looking good. El is still way ahead, shes got stupid new growth, more pistils, and a weird scent coming off the leaves.
Northern cheese haze looks like it might end up being the "smallest" of the 3 but shes lookin good as well.
Hubbabubbasmelloscope was the one i wasnt sure about. After the last cat attack hbss seedling was left with one cotyledon baby leaf. She has recovered nicely and is already passing up nch in development.
All 3 gals got their first feed, full strength recharge and hydroguard. Heres the funky part...
I introduced em all to bottom feeding monday, and did another round this morning. I filled the tubs the girls are sitting in, up with their feed and literally just dunked the rootmaker pots. I left em partially submerged(only about 4 inches of the pot was dunked) for 5 minutes and then pulled the pots to drip dry.
Seemed to have worked, tho its messier than i like lol. I think i might just bottom feed the one gal in the autopot and just water the 2 rootmaker gals like normal.
I do think tho that dunking the 2 solo cup gals might just be the ticket! Or if i can figure out a way to kind of brace the solo cups, support em better, i might be able to pull off the solo cup autopot type grow. That could be rad.
Deets- everything is mostly the same, still focused on root development tho we are now seeing some good vertical growth!
Nutes- 1st feed of full strength recharge and hydroguard this week, next week we will add megacrop and calmag at 1/4 strength and go from there.
Lights- we are still early in the game so im making sure the "canopy" is getting 15-17k lumens, i think ill start increasing their light next week. Should also have a new light for the tent next week, got a mars hydro ts1000 to add to the mix.
Between the 3 lights ive now got about 330-350 watts of beautiful weed growing light! Fwiw that will put me in the 40w per square foot range, should hopefully have great light coverage in muh tent now.
I think ill be chopping down gorilla blue this weekend so the meph babies should have the tent to themselves, glorious glorious space to stretch and grow big!
