Feeding schedule to date plus light penetration & defoliation
.
She's getting so HUGE. it does seem though that no matter the strengtheners i use, or how i tie her up, her branches just DO NOT have any strength to them. I've got 2 layers of screen in this one, and one in the other tent, and neither one is holding their heads up much. They're already starting to droop a little in this tent. Other than that, though ( and i really don't think there's anything i can do about that. thats just her) she's doing AMAZINGLY. I can really tell a difference between the regular Sensi and the Conni. She's EXPLODING with growth, so much so that I have to go in the tent AGAIN and give her a haircut. a big one. These lights are blowing me away, totally. Down below i have a series of before/after photos, taken from underneath the plant when i did the defoliation. Even BEFORE it, and she's super thick, branches on branches on branches with leaves weaving their way between teh beanches, pulling them together, and tangling them around each other. These lights are getting all the way to the FLOOR. I know my feeding schedule is really intense for her. but these lights are so strong, and push my plants so hard, that if i DIDNT, she would get deficient. I had one under a 3rd one of these lights, and i tried to back off on feed for a moment, to see what was up, and she suffered for it. (that one's only a week from harvest. I'm going to post a strain review on AYP, and ill show those photos there. She's a 1 plant, 1 light MONSTER)
Here's a bit of what I do for her in a week:
The first 3 weeks, once a week, she got an Optic Foliar spray. this is a mix of Transport, Rev, and Watts, with a sm. amt of floralicious plus. That has now stopped.
When she got put in the tent, she started getting Prime, at 1/2 strength, for the first 3 wks. This week she gets upped to full strength on that, and I'll keep giving it to her for probably 2 more weeks. (till wk 6 end)
she gets a light (for her) day, once a week, of Elemental, Trinity, and Recharge at full strength.This usually comes right after she gets her Sensizyme (1x/wk @ full as well)
Her base bloom feed is Advanced Nutrients Connoisseur Sensi. that's at full as well, with some Big Bud thrown in there, as well as a very light cali-magic add as well, about 1/2 st.
Here this week im going to stop her Big Bud, and start giving her Overdrive.
She's also going to start getting B-52 this week. (duh, of course I give her fresh water too. )
Her branches have absolutely no order to them whatsoever. Trimming and training her is worse than my glue breath, i think. The glue gets less branching. it seems like this plant can throw out a new leaf bud in the middle of her stem, with no node in sight. its odd, for sure, but the buds are so dank, i just had to keep her. and she produces, even though the branches dont support it.
OK- now to the fun part. Let's look at some pictures. The first set of compare/contrast is going to be the light penetration. I was amazed at the level of light that got through, even before i trimmed her. But after, those lights were beaming through! it looked like the sun in there, like there were no leaves, even though you can tell in the photo after that she is still extremely thick.
.....................
The only difference between the two photos is that I cropped the one on the left a little bit, to get the date out of there. I forgot to with the other, so they look a little different. But i sat the camera on the floor with both of them, and they are completely unedited, raw photos.
THIS is what the side view looks like, when you open the door of my tent.like the others, before is on the left, after on the right.
