DWC Grow #3 - Week 5 (Day 28–34) | Canopy Takes Over + Trellis/Topping + Space Management (Dec 25–31)
Week 5 was the week the plant stopped being “a plant in a bucket” and started being a canopy-management project. Growth turned noticeably more explosive, the footprint expanded fast, and I had to make real decisions about structure, airflow, and tent space.
Day 28 (Dec 25) - Explosive growth
Came home to a huge jump in growth. The plant looked healthy and vigorous, and it finally felt like the system was “locked in” after the earlier turbulence. Reservoir was stable, roots looked strong, and the canopy started to crowd the tent. I started seriously thinking about topping and how to manage height long-term.
Day 29 (Dec 26) - Post-training recovery looks good
The plant handled the recent canopy work well and kept pushing new growth. I logged a stable reservoir (temp staying in a good range) and the overall posture looked positive. Water usage was clearly increasing, which matches the jump in biomass.
Day 30 (Dec 27) - Strong momentum + dialing light position
The plant kept building mass fast. I continued to raise the light slightly as the canopy climbed and nudged intensity upward cautiously (still conservative relative to manufacturer “veg” suggestions). Reservoir readings stayed in the workable zone, and water level continued to drop steadily, confirming she’s drinking.
Day 31 (Dec 28) - Steady readings, steady push
No big interventions - more “observe, tuck, and keep it stable.” The canopy was getting denser, and I could tell the next phase would be about preventing the tent from turning into a packed, hard-to-service jungle.
Day 32 (Dec 29) - Space management: moved extraction hardware outside
To reclaim headroom and working space, I moved the inline fan and carbon filter outside the tent. This was purely about space and practicality as the plant expands. I kept an eye on airflow behavior and made sure the setup still pulled properly.
Day 33 (Dec 30) - Canopy density reality check
Canopy got dense enough that it started feeling like a “light and airflow engineering” problem. I did a light prune (nothing extreme - more like clearing obvious blockers). I also noticed some droop and ended up focusing on reservoir basics: keeping the root zone oxygenated and avoiding a too-high water line. I siphoned out some water to bring the level down. The water looked a bit murky but didn’t smell, which was reassuring.
Day 34 (Dec 31) - Hands-off (New Year)
I was away for New Year’s, so this was effectively a hands-off day. Sometimes that’s the best thing for me - less temptation to over-adjust. The plan was simply to return, assess water usage, and continue shaping the canopy with minimal stress.
Week 5 takeaway: The plant is officially in “take over the tent” mode. Growth is strong, water consumption is increasing, and the limiting factor has shifted from “will she survive?” to “can I keep the environment and structure under control without over-correcting?”

This is about day 10 but she really started stretching after day 7.
She has nice lateral stretching as well. She didn't have all of these side branches a week ago

They are all coming along nicely. I’m concerned that they are fading a little early. I’ve used the nutrients may add a bloom booster

La settimana passata non sono riuscito a trovare tempo per le foto.
Oramai è la terza settimana di crescita .
Tutte le piante crescono rigogliose e felici. Tranne una che si era spezzata mentre avevo travasato il piantino, però piano piano sta recuperando.
Tenendo l umidità molto alta intorno al 70 per cento fin ora le ho annaffiate solo una volta per settimana.

I switched the light from MH to HPS because the plants did not grow at all. They have stems like trees, but they are low. They started to grow after switching to HPS. Anyway, I'm dissatisfied with height. I hope it will benefit from a large flower pot and grow like water.

Day 14: This week I'm increasing the humidity inside the tent with a wet towel and containers with water. I also removed the half bottles that were over the plants to generate extra humidity, because they got burned because of that, as you can see in the leaves, there are some brown snipes.
Day 15: I added a towel and containers with water inside the tent to increase humidity, I managed to bring it up to 67% in some parts of the day.
Day 16: I'm convinced Mario has thrips. I will add Potasium Soap in a couple days to kill any thrips possibility, and also add a moistmeter in the soil to know exactly if I'm overwatering or not.
Day 18: Started with the feeding. Rizothonic + Vega at 25% of the recommended dosage. Added just 12ml of water on each plant. I don't want to overwater. Also added a new fan to the setup.
Day 19: Added Potasium soap to the leaves during the dark hours. They look better already.
Day 20: Added water + Solution of water with 25% nutrients I already created on day 18. I'm going reeeally slow with nutrients.
D21: Forgot to make photos. Sprayed potasium soap solution at 2% over the plants, to avoid any pests.

Another easy week, weather has been beautiful! Lot’s of ☀️. They have been very thirsty as a result, I was able to get three waterings in this week. Just keep bringing them in and out of their pop up greenhouse daily. Started to taper down some of the feeds, two plain oh waterings and one feed this week. I don’t really “flush” but I do taper down to just ph water for the last few feeds. Happy growing folks! 🇨🇦❤️🌱😎💨

This 3 ladies are big! They have achieved a beautiful structure, very bushy full of bud sites everywhere, this plants are very awesome to apply lst, the secondary branches tend to stretch a lot! However I'm growing this strain with another 8 strains in SOG so I just applied a selective defoliation and they are ready to develop some nice colas! I'm just growing in recycled soil from my previous grows re amended with FLO Living soil blend snd just water!

First set of leaves were a bit light and what appears as some decent tip burn? Bucket was running hot on week two, but left it alone. She’s happy now that she’s starting to get the munchies. Most of the growth is looking decent.
I’m going to top above the fourth node, and take the lower branches leaving 6 main branches to train.
She’s topped but it looks like I will end up with 8 branches to play with. I may remove the bottom two?
