It's been a while since I posted here. My dad used to say, "I can tell you a million things to not do when you are installing a satellite dish." That's what I have been doing: learning all the stuff I shouldn't do. I have been dreaming of growing this plant for around 20 years. I have read everything you are supposed to do... dozens of times.
At any rate, I have fell into a nice rhythm. Here is the evidence of the effectiveness of that rhythm. The two in the back are bag seed. The two in the front are mystery seeds I got from Nirvana. The seeds from Nirvana got started a little later than the bag seeds. This picture was taken on September 26th.
Two days later, the two in the back are taking off. I tripled the amount of nutrients I am giving them as suggested on the bottles. I was kind of worried I might burn them up, but I decided to trust the nutrient manufacturer.
Two more days later and it looks like my trust in General Hydroponics paid off. Every single time I open the door, I am blown away by how beefy these things are getting. The two Nirvana plants don't seem to be doing so well.
Two more days and the two in the back are super dense. The main stalk is nice and fat. The leaves are a healthy looking deep green color. The two Nirvana plants seem to be doing a little better. They were just sickly looking from the start. Not sure if it is something I am doing or not doing, or if it just the genetics of the plant.
The same day, I just gave the two big ones a hair cut.
