RUFUS HOUND Posted January 3, 2023 Author Share Posted January 3, 2023 well I dont want to disqualify myself, so I guess a trim could be in order and I'll grow the cuttings for my own amusement 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead I have four girls and another two seeds (hopefully) sprouting soon... Trim seems a good move if the multiple bud sites are causing issues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFUS HOUND Posted January 4, 2023 Author Share Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) @Crow River I think mine is suffering from not being able to supply enough neuts for the growth, Its only an assumption as never grew in a tiny pot for this long. when I checked tonight I have 10 heads for far, so Im gonna get some cuttings off them tomorrow and leave 1 or 2 on to flower.

RUFUS HOUND Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) Hi all, I threw caution to the wind and trimmed Roxannes heads from 10 to 4 (thought this better than 2 to stop them toppling over) Ive got myself 6 nice size cuttings for cloning which have been dipped into cinnamon powder and planted 2 each into 3x 500ml pots - first time trying this so we will see how they get along. I'll cull the weakest one from each pot after a few weeks of growing roots, provided they survive of course. A few shots of Roxanne after her tidy up - hopefully this will help the dieback on the leaves To help her out Ive flushed her through with 1 litre of clean tap water (the runoff was quite low at pH 5.5) and then gave her 1ml/L feed Cant measure ph anymore as I broke my ph pen We will have to see if the deficiencies come back - fingers crossed for now. Going to leave her recover from the trauma in the nursery till next week then its into the big girls tent for flowering Edited January 5, 2023 by RUFUS HOUND 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUFUS HOUND Posted January 6, 2023 Author Share Posted January 6, 2023 Just a tip regarding my broken pH meter, dont be an dumbass like me and try to clean the glass bulb by rubbing it with anything, the glass is ultra thin and shatters if done hard - just rinse in clean water after use and save yourself the hassle and cost of getting another. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUFUS HOUND Posted January 9, 2023 Author Share Posted January 9, 2023 Day 48 - time passes fast when your having fun Roxy has bounced back nicely after her cosmetic surgery - these TBL cope with anything that is thrown at them ! No more dead or dying leaves (famous last words) but hopefully the flush has sorted out the low pH which might have been the problem all along. I'll be moving them into the big tent tomorrow - hope the big girls dont bully her too much. On a side note Ive took the domes off the Joshua clones as they look like they have re-vegged and have new bushy growth. Still early days for the TBL clones but they are still alive and have started to turn upto the light under their domes. overhead shot of the nursery 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
