Heya all
I rescued this plant from a friend who was growing it on his window ledge.
He asked me to try and see what I could do to make it produce some more bud.
She's already couple weeks into flowering.
Most of the buds are pretty small popcorn buds at the moment, but my goal here is to make them fatter. Isn't that all of our goals? :D
This plant has basically had nothing at all as far as nutes go until now, and has been grown indoors on a window ledge with pretty low amounts of sunlight getting to it recently.
I currently have eight 25 watt CFL's blasting it (1600 lumens each @ 2700k)
I gave her a pretty low dosage of Schultz 10-15-10 a few hours ago, along with some water ph'd to 6.5. Soil ph is currently a low 6.
This was being grown just plain MG soil, not the over fertilized crap, but the plain MG soil.
I put it into a small cab which I quickly made for it last night out of a computer cart, with a hacked up cheap-o emergency blanket for some reflective material.
The cab isnt all that great honestly since I rushed to build it asap, but it'll work for now.
I began some minor lst on it partly so I could fit it inside the small cab, and partly so I could bend her over to get more light spread around her to increase the possible yield.
I think this one can be turned around from its present state, and be made into a semi-decent plant by harvest time.
Granted, we both already know it will not yield much.
It looks like it has about 6 bowls worth (estimated dry weight) already.
Our goal here is to increase its chances of producing denser thicker buds than it already has, before it peaks out.
Its currently 17" tall and its pretty thin looking, due getting a pretty low concentration of light previously.
Strain is unknown bag-seed, however the buds do look pretty good.
Nice long white hairs all over her buds... they're just really thin and spread out.
Pics....
