The first official week of flowering is complete. During this phase, the plant showed a noticeable stretch and transitioned from a very compact structure into a more open, light-efficient canopy.
At the beginning of the week, only a few tops were clearly defined, while most bud sites were still in early pre-flower stages. Over the course of the week, this changed significantly: multiple bud sites became active and started to develop visibly. The distribution of tops across the canopy is very even, which is a direct result of early training (topping + LST).
Stretch averaged around ~1 cm per day, with a slight acceleration toward the end of the week. Current plant height is approximately 32 cm. Despite the relatively short overall height, the vertical growth of individual branches improved light penetration and overall efficiency.
The structure remains compact but no longer overly dense. Internodal spacing is moderate, indicating a more indica-leaning phenotype. At the same time, the branches appear strong enough to support future bud development.
The plant is responding well overall. After a brief adjustment phase (water/light changes), it has returned to active growth with healthy leaf structure. Leaf color is a consistent, healthy green with no visible deficiencies or signs of overfeeding.
Actions & Setup:
• Increased light intensity (prime position in the tent)
• Light defoliation to expose bud sites
• Nutrients still in transition phase (2-2-2 to 2-2-3.5 ratio)
• Bud Candy introduced
• Big Bud planned for next feeding
Week Summary:
A very solid first week of flowering. The stretch started slightly delayed but is now progressing well. With the number of bud sites and the even canopy structure, the plant shows strong yield potential despite its compact size.
Focus for FW2:
Maximize light utilization, introduce PK boost (Big Bud), and stabilize bud development.
