Looking really good

Group shot today - busy baking and cleaning - watered with a tea blend today - been re-setting their bindings twice a day - today they didn't need much resetting - me myself and I all think we got em right where we want em.

Hey those are looking great. And i got 3 females out of my reg. auto seeds blooming really helps on these tiny little pollen sacks i even tried with a huge magnifieing glass. I did'nt take time much for training on them, sorry Weed Master i will do much better next go on them. Branchs now are scary stiff i don't want to snap a bud site off LOL may make me cry cry.

here is sour diesel auto by seedsman. it was a freebie. well see how it handles being topped and mainlined. i think im try nebulas manifold style. i am also going to manifold one of my gorilla girl XL autos. seems to be a good strain for the training.

 

[Canuck147]

Batting average just went up.

 

[HobbitGDF]

here is what i did this morning to my gorilla girl XL auto p1 (plant 1)

i was going to do the manifold like nebula but there was an issue. one of the branches topped itself.

Took the kids outside for a group pic

I've got a couple huge fan leaves that came from the last node below the topping site. I want to remove them to open up the bud sites underneath.

My concern is will I have enough fans to go 7-8 more weeks in flower?

Will the flowering stretch period also grow the existing fan leaves larger or are they as big as they are going to get?

How many of the smaller fans that come out with the bud sites can be removed?

Apologies, just stuff that has come up during this training experience.

 

[Canuck147]

I find with autoflowers the leaves grow back - they won't grow back late in flowering.

I have no hesitations removing fan leaves.

 

[Catfish22]

Thanks, just thought I would check, I've read you have to be careful in late bloom because they don't grow back but I had not seen anything about flowering stretch.

Time for a haircut!

pics from yesterday - been raining for a few days and what do I spot on one leaf? Dreaded spot of WPM - cut that leaf off and today sprayed them with Defender Garden Fungicide by Safer's. Tent pic is after watering with full strength nutes and sprayed.

They usually lose a few leaves everyday - but today we decided to leave the top fan leaves that are blocking a few bud sites- cuz it looks like maybe the underneath branches might grow out enough to get more light.

 

[JeffInCanada]

Geeze, that stuff (I won't say it) popped up quick. Hopefully that's the last you will see of it. All plants looking good. Top views looking real good.

 

[Canuck147]

Just gotta pay attention to one's grow. - doesn't bother me - I expect it to show up sometime. I've resigned myself long ago to losing 10% of every grow to some kind of mold or rot .
WPM likes to show up during any wet weather.

 

[Catfish22]

Yeah it sucks when you see the conditions developing and there is not a dang thing you can do about it.

At least we have remedies for most things but it sucks having to put anything on our plants after all we put in to them. You are an excellent grower though, I know you'll get it straight.

 

[Canuck147]

All those leaves I sprayed will eventually be trimmed off .

 

[Canuck147]

Lucy here - after a slow start she's become the most fun to watch and LST. I'll see how many branches grow up from those branches I've been laying down - I topped her but something has grown up in the middle - go figure.

 

[Canuck147]

I see in that pic above she's growing knuckles.
