*** WEEK 5 ***

(Week 1 Flower)

 

 

So after a little under a week back in their box the girls have come around in fine style :)

 

They got wired and tied down to stop some of the stretch from two weeks in the sun and being overwatered. Now they're dry as a bone and looking much better for it. One plant has really shot up while the other has stayed bonsai-style. First the leggy bird:

I've had to 'bend her over' to keep her short :)

Unfortunately during the bend i split the main stem! However with some string and a bit of superglue (yes really) she'll be just fine :) I've done it before. Superglue (CyranoAcrylate) is that that; a liquid acrylic, so drys as a plastic. And despite what you heard it wasn't invented for the Vietnam war. It was originally designed in the 40's to create clear, optical gunsights.

And after a week of 12/12 we can just see some pistils emerging:

Then the second, short lady:

Unfortunately she too got a bit of a ding during the bending process. But again, a touch of superglue and she'll be just fine :)

And both back in the box!

@Prophet all looking good in the pic’s m8, I broke my last plant like that an used electrical tape (looked like some kind off black mummy by time I’d finish’d) lol 

Never thought or knew you could use super-glue, maybe try that lil trick next time...

Interesting 40’s super-glue fact...

Good luck with this cool lil grow dude...:pimp:

Some farmers use wax to heal tree wounds...

 

Maybe beeswax can be a natural (and antibacterial) way to heal wounds. :yep:

 

The plants, as always great. :wub:

 

Sweet smokes!

*** WEEK 8 ***

(Week 4 Flower)

 

 

 

Still moving along nicely :) 

 

The first girl is so twisted up from LST you can barely tell what it is anymore :D She's also yellowing on the lower fan leaves so have upped her feed to 4ml/L (oldtimers bloom)

 

 

large.20190917_180434.jpg

 

 

But she's pumping out pistils and trichs so all's-well

 

large.20190917_180505.jpg

 

 

 

The second girl is the one with the red genes and she's a little more photogenic:

And both back in their box! Remember folks this is 65w!
