FlowerNose's Electric Fruit Auto Grow Journal 2017

[FlowerNose]

Tying down sideways you can achieve a bowl as well and it should increase the size if the seconday colas as well. .

^^^^^^^a tied down amnesia auto.

What age did you first start tipping them over?

When the had about 4 nodes tying down has a similar effect as topping with autos.

Islandgrow reminded me about ponytailing. I don't know why I didn't remember I wanted to do this a day or two ago. So this afternoon I put her in a ponytail for an hour. Starting slow.

Looking good . And as soon as the branches pass the leaves you can stop the pony tailing.

OK so I've taken the time to go through your journal. seems to be going well. May bee a little slow but I believe that's light. you said your planing to get more lights. Sooner than later mate. Well worth it. Especially for flower.
I love the look of your pony tail. That's a new concept to me and I'm keen to see how it goes. I'm in 2 frames there. Nice colour and nice leaves. Thanks for the tip to post pics. Seems I can't. My phone not compatible for app it says and how I go through Google it don't seem to have option. I'd love u to see my outdoor monster.
Good lucky grow buddy

Sorry, I'm high. What does this mean?

[FlowerNose]

Yeah! My husband has ordered high powered LEDs and drivers and other gear I don't really understand yet. We're (he is) building very nice lights. I'm thinking we'll have a prototype running in about 2 weeks.

Islandgrow turned me on to this type of training as well. I would do it for half if the day then remove the pipe cleaners. I saw awesome growth from it.

No cons really with the pony tailing it does not stress the plant so continued growth. Just the lower nodes getting light encourages the branches to grow. And lst does the same thing with a little stress. Doesnt slow them down a bit though if done correctly.

Throwback Tuesday

I didn't start my journal until Day 10, but I took photos. Thought I'd try to remember all my early steps.

Glamour shots from her first week. So precious.

We used the paper towel method. Kept her in a drawer with a baby wipes warmer and monitored the temp throughout the day. I can't remember exactly but we tried to keep it around 80°f. No pics.

Shoved a plug into the hole of a 4 inch grodan rockwool cube and soaked it in ph'd RO water. Then I put in the seed and tap root.

Do you like animal crackers? I cut the bottom of this giant plastic bear out with a hot electric craft knife. I had a plastic box I'd been saving to make DIY shrinky dinks but decided growing cannabis was more fun and used it to make a vented lid. That's a metal brad holding the two pieces of plastic together so they spin independently to vent.

Here are the early days of the stealth grow box. Still has sawdust inside.

RH stayed at 99% until we took the bear dome off. Needs more vent holes for next time.

Well, that was fun for me. .

And now

I panicked when my husband checked on her this morning and I thought he said, "she didn't like the feeding last night." But he said she DID. She's really picking up speed!!

Happy Wednesday!

Day 24

The time has come. I did it.

I took this beautiful little girl and tipped her over. I was nervous. Knees weak, palms were sweaty.

I thought the wire in a pipe cleaner might cut into the stems if I didn't protect against it. Whipped out the masking tape and made nice, flat pads to distribute the pressure.

Verrryyy caaarefully I slid in the pipe cleaners and gently wrapped them around the stem. I left plenty of room inside the loop so there would be no growth restrictions.

In the following photo I held the camera level so you can see how far I tipped her to the side.

She looks a little uncomfortable but I expect she'll perk up fine.

And one more because, really, what's "enough" pictures?

Day 25

Almost 18 hours after LST.

I've spent some time with her gently tucking fan leaves and moving things around so that as many nodes as possible get full light. She's really picking up speed!

I just put on the white ponytail around the former top now that it turned back upward. I'll leave it for a couple hours.

The smell when I walk into the room with the grow cabinet is so bright and fresh and green. I'll be building a carbon filter of some kind pretty soon.
