Day 14
Ok so thats two weeks down and things are just starting to get interesting now. Have been giving occasional light feeds so far and will be upping these to stronger feeds every couple of days for Deep Blue C and daily for the Orange Alien over the following week. The lowest single finger leaves have also been removed from both, opening up the lowers a bit but more importantly getting them out of the soggy soil round the base of the stem that they were sitting in each time i watered.
Orange Alien is for sure the slower starter of the two at about half the size of her Blue sister, reckon keeping her a bit to far from the light at the beginning played a roll in this, as in the last two days since i moved her a bit closer growth seems to have stepped up a gear and she looks healthy and should stay in good proportion for her 1L pot.
Deep Blue C return of the self topping mutant, after four days of ponytailing the lowers have caught up and have started to grow nicely to the sky giving two clear tops and one slightly smaller secondary from the lowers at the cotyledons, a bit less than the six i was hoping for as the cotyledons only produced one secondary branch and the third node witht the funky V shaped leaf did not produce and secondaries either.
Should see sex from both of them over the next week, so fingers crossed for some substantial growth and pistil action by the next update, but more than happy with progress so far.
