The grow is going well and there are very big differences between all 3 plants.
The height:
Plant 1 (left): 115 cm tall
Plant 2 (middle): 84 cm tall
Plant 3 (right): 130 cm tall
As 2 plants stretched all the way into the LED light, I have now tied them to the back of the tent. This results in the top colas being pulled sideways away from the center of the LED and reducing the light intensity. The top colas closest to the LED have shown some signs of stress. Slight burning and foxtailing of the top colas is the result of this. However the problem should be solved as they now receive substantially less light.
The plants are also very different in their development.
Plant 1 (left): still is full of white hairs, bud development is a little slower, moderate trichrome production. I think this plant will take the longest to finish.
Plant 2 (middle): most hairs have turned orange, most bud development of all 3 plants and good trichrome production. I feel this plant will be finished the earliest.
Plant 3 (right): a mix of white and orange hairs, bud development and trichrome production is ok. I feel this plant will finish in-between the other 2 plants.
So far I am happiest with the middle plant (plant 2). It has the nicest bud development and overall looks the prettiest so far. However, in the end we will have to see how the end product turns out. The prettiest plant isn't always the best smoke. So let's see what these ladies do towards the end of flower.
I'm using Plagron Green Sensation for the end of flower to help bud production. So far so good.
Thanks again to Plagron and Zamnesia for sponsoring the comp and the grow. Happy growing and see you next week.
