Update: Day 70 - Day 18 Flowering - 29 Days until i go on holiday - 53 Days till the 10 week mark - 60 Days until the 11 week mark.

Today is mainly about Mary as i have had to tie her down again. These girls are growing so fast its unbelievable! I hope they stop putting energy into growing and into budding by the time i go on holiday! Im having to tie them down every other day...

Width of the op is becoming a problem. I dont think you guys really have an idea of how small my grow tent actually is.. It it this way there is only just enough room for both of the pots in there alone as far as the floor space is concerned. The width of the area is 27 Inches, depth is 19 inches. Mary alone from one tip to another is 20 inches... Not only is she overlapping her pot Jane is too so things are very cramped. ONTOP of that i also have my fan on the floor as well.... Dont ask how lol there is a massive bulge where the fan is when i shut the tent. I have photos of Marys growth over the edge of her pot.

Anyway tying down is a major operation at the moment she has branches over lapping/ under/ over each other everywhere. Im running out of width so fast and when the branches point upwards then theres not a lot else i can do but leave them be which could cause problems. On my next grow if im in the same tent or similar size space i am going to plant the girl to the far side of the pot not dead center. That way when i start LST'ing she can work her way right around without taking over the whole tent lol

Anyway photos of Mary overflowing:




Just a quick update on the clone. I removed about 90% of the water from her rockwool two days or so ago to try and get it to root. Im not that fussed about this clone. I removed some more bottom leaves as they were yellowing a bit. Today i cant be bothered to leave it in the bottle for increased humidity anymore so ive put it in a small pot for now with soil to see how it does. I do expect to check in on it in an hour and see it wilted / dead. The reason the stem is bent isnt due to wilted currently its because of the position i had the bottle in therefor it leant towards the light:


Heres both the girlies


Picture of Mary who had branched out so much over night i couldnt believe it:


Jane and the clone in soil:


Close up of Janes top :


Noticed this today on Marys main stem. Its obviously cracked or ripped without me realizing but has fixed itself, thought it'd be an interesting photo:


And some of the tying down i did today, its becoming havoc in there lol:


Not too sure what else to say. I have been watering much less than i thought id need to. And over the whole grow i have used hardly any nutes what so ever its surprising. I guess there must have been a lot of nutes still in the soil i used as they havent shown any defficiency that i know of yet. Will water them on Sunday with Canna Boost. Its 2 and a half weeks until i use the PK13/14.

Thanks for stopping by, sorry for the lengthy update lol

Peace
