New Bag-seed Grow

[Garden Knowm]

Yo BRO...

i don't meanto be the bearer of bad news.. but see how your NEW growth is smaller than your older growth... this is not good.. the tops of your plants should be showing vigorous growth with each set of fan leaves bigger than the previous set...

What's the deal..? are you PH ing your water?

We haven't been pH'ing the water (still need ph down from the grow shop but thats a hell of a drive) but we do have a ph tester for the soil and all soil is right around 6.5 at the moment. Could the fact that a lot of those tops you see are actually coming from the bottom older growth have anything to do with it? I need to get some good side shots so you can see how everything from the bottom is at the same level with the ones from the top. I thought the new fan leaves started out smaller then filled out? Thats how ours have always grown. We've never LST'd before though...I think thats why the growth looks so different. I dunno, but thanks for the heads up GK. I'll go pick up at least some water testing stuff this sunday to go with the soil tester

Yeah man, if you go back and look close and find what would have been the top before we tied them down, those leaves are pretty vigorous. They start off small then open up and fill out to the same size or bigger than the old ones. All the small leaves you see all across the canopy of the plant are tops coming from crotches of the first few fan leaves. Lol, you had me worried for a second. But yeah, the new "tops" are kinda small, but they hadn't really been growing up and out for long, plants are on their like 4th or 5th day of LST'ing.

Meh, I know, but how can you argue with a face like that? Plus, the cat has never been outside so she can't catch anything not already in the house with the girls. Stay tuned, mas photos a noche.

Man, 2 days and I can actually see a difference. I did some more training today, spread some more stuff out and got some more tops to the light. The stems have thickened up quite a bit on the tops that shot up from the bottom. They have like 5 inches between the internode they were on and the new one they formed when we first tied them over, then once they reached the light they started doing short internodes again. I was worried at first about stretching but it was just re-shaping I was gonna get pics of how badass those stems have bent but i ran out of batteries.

It was crazy today, after only like 3 hours I could already see small stems curved some back toward the light where I had tied today.


Pics as promised:

In order: "blueberry midgrade" confirmed female, unkown topped, the one that has always been female, sloth, and the unknown one that is huge

[Anathema2121]

Leaf on that huge one (the one that used to be the runt lol) is as long as a blunt

[Anathema2121]

Damn, they have grown so much in the week they've been under that HPS. Just look back at last page.

I dunno, they could suck. Send me your buds after your harvest and I'll *cough* run them through my 'testing lab' and make sure they're okay.

Just kiddin', they look quite nice to me! I use those same exact germination trays too (from your first pics)-- they kick ass! And don't worry about the cat. I have five cats, and other than a few cat hairs getting on my buds, no probs. (I even have a cat that looks like a fat 16-pound version of your cat.) Did you let your cat eat that leaf? If so, did it do anything for the cat? I've never let them eat my leaves. I don't want them to get in the habit, but also paranoid that if it made them really sick and I had to take them to the vet, and they rowfed up pot leaves...that might look bad. Heh.
