I read somewhere that you said if you were to do coco again, you wouldn't amend with perlite? I think I'm gonna research a bit more into coco - but I'm really concerned with washing the root ball..If you could clean and wash the root ball you could go into coco
I've been reading into back building and other techniques for later during flowering, but I have a feeling she's gonna be super frosty (already super stinky haha).
It's been a while, GrnThumbs! Hope your babies are doing good Yeah, backbuilding is supposed to increase flower girth/density. I'm just waiting until week 5-6 flower to see if my colas are going to be airy or dense before I do it. The last thing I wanna do is throw my plants out of whack so I'm thinking maybe I'll just let it go full term with no additional technique applied, that way I can get a good idea for the base - line production. I'm thinking any modifications on technique will be used on clones when I begin to flower them.I'd never heard of backbuilding so I looked into it this morning. From what I read and watched its supposed to add density to the buds and increase the side growth on the colas but not necessarily increase potency or frost? It seems to me pretty much like topping during veg only during flower. I may try it on a couple of colas on my girls whenever they start flowering .

Would like to see an update on your girls how are they liking the bigger containers?
I thought the same at first, but I eliminated nitrogen entirely at the beginning of flower until I received Tiger Bloom (2-8-4). It's worth mention that the tips of the leaves were forced downward by the fan leaf in the picture. :/ I'll keep an eye out just to be sure. I'm thinking about getting some top-dress amendments to enhance the biology in the soil. I'm also considering slowly tuning the ph up to 6.9 over the next week. Maybe a good flush, too.The only thing i see is a some "claw" going on which would be excess nitrogen.
