My First Time Growing On DWC! - I'm Psyched!

just go easy on the defol til ya get the hang of it eh. let the girl tell you where to snip. it's almost like bonsai. I personally get a very ethereal feeling when I spend that time with my girls. it just lifts the spirits as long as you let them guide you.

I've done it before, cussin an cursin and goin on bout how much work it is, blah, blah, blah.

felt uptight n cranky during those defol sesh's. so, now I just relax, talk to my girls and let them talk to me.

have fun eh

That's true. I started to realize it afterwards and told myself, "You're doing a big favor for these girls" and even told them they're going to mature beautifully.
 
You want to make sure you do not do any defoliating during the first 3 weeks of flower. That's when they do their stretch (where they can grow up to 3x bigger). You don't want them trying to heal during that time because the plant won't get as big which means less yield.

Thanks for the advice. I figured that I was gonna have to stop after week 1 since now I just started to see flowering on certain areas of the plants.
 
I think I just saw my plants starting to flower. Before I go any further, SQ#1 has improved in a matter of days...

Hey, everyone...

So, today I'm afraid to say I have some bad news... Special Queen #1 didn't make it. I'm trying to shake it off but I'm really disappointed since I'm such a perfectionist. I checked on her this morning and this is what I found out.

After seeing this, I had to take her down.

I really hope that the rest of them will prosper. I learned that the pollen could transfer to the other plants.

So far Candy Kush Express is doing so well so far.

While I was cutting Special Queen #1 off, the roots got so tangled to each other that I had to separate them by hand as gently as possible. I hope Raspberry Cough does well in the process now that she's a loner in the DWC bin. So far she looks alright.

I hope all of you are having a successful grow out there and if anyone of you are in the same situation as me, don't give up. This is a learning experience.

With great energy, love, and peace I hope all of you well!

:Namaste:

Thank you. Special Queen # 1 was supposedly feminized but hermied on me around week 2 though I still have faith in the other three to grow just fine.

About you wanting to go a DWC for your grow, I definitely have your support on this one plus you have so much yield and faster plant growth. Whenever you get the space you need for it, let me know. :thumb:

Just wanted to post a few closeups on the three girls. First photo is Raspberry cough. I know she's gonna be in the closet for a little whole longer than CKE. I'm expecting to Harvest RC around the second week of Sept while CKE should be harvested around the middle of August. I can't wait to see how big the buds will get. On Saturday, I'll be adding Cultured Solutions Bloom mid in the mix. From what I heard, it's like adding Bud XL from Advanced Nurtrients but way much better. I'll just have to wait and see for myself.

I hope all of you are well and thanks for stopping by to check on my update!

:Namaste:
 
Hey, there!!!

I'm back with a little bit of an update with sone photos on the girls. I noticed some trichome production happening around the end of week 2. Now on week 3 of flower, they're growing beautifully...
As you can tell, Candy Kush Express is almost outgrowing the closet. The last time I measured her, she came out to be almost 4 feet. I'm not too worried since she's only got about 4-5 weeks left until she's ready to be harvested.

I also took some shots of Raspberry Cough since she's been blooming pretty nicely.

Going back to Candy Kush Express... Now I made a big boo boo while changing the water on her the other day. I accidentally snapped one of her branches off so I got some tape, twisty ties, and popsicle sticks to help her back up. I hope this really helps.

I took some more pics of her flowering sites.

Candy Kush Express has three more weeks to mature. I just can't believe it! After everything I had experienced in this journey has been super awesome and found how passionate I am about this. I hope you guys enjoy!
 
Oh yea, I forgot! I meant to ask anyone if they had some idea how I can alter my lights so they can have an even amount of rays coming through... As you can tell from the left Raspberry Cough is more focused on Mars Hydro 300 while Candy Kush Express is mainly on the 2 42w and the 40w Cfl. I just noticed that the taller CKE coming towards me needs more light to be focused on her. Please, if you have any advice about it, that would be lovely!

I hope you guys are having a gorgeous day!
