Hey Cannafam Happy Monday,
My Apricot gal has had another good week overall, mainly to a continuation of consistant lovely weather 😊
Although not as hot as last week its been Sunny everyday apart from a little rain Friday morning, its been really consistant with daytime temps of 21c -23c Tuesday - Sunday and today its crept up to 25c, nights have been an average of 14c. Humidity has remained high in the range of 70-90% and Daylight hours are currently at 16 hrs 14 minutes.
Growth wise shes loving life, i was happy with her shape in last weeks update, but her main cola had stretched quite a bit further upwards this week and needed further pinning down, and all branches have also had good growth and been trained out further to the sides of the pot. Fyi the the height logged is the length of her main stem as if vertical.
Flowers are slowly kickin in with new pistils and her smell is now also starting to develop, and when close shes giving off a slightly sweet aroma but very delicate at this stage.
I've also done a bit further defoliation on the bottom of the plant so as she goes further into flower any breeze can blow freely underneath through helping keep humidity down between colas.
Feed wise shes only had 1 helping this week but will be getting another at the end of today, i've not changed quantity as she looks really happy with no sign of deficiency or excess.
On the pest front the ale i used last week is too dark to see through, but there are some foamy looking lumps in there, so something has definitely gone in! When it evaporates a bit further(or they drink it) il have a slug count with pics clean and refill. I dont really like pouring away ale or any alcohol, but i spose its worth it! 😅
All in all shes coming along nicely, thanks for stopping by and hope you have a nice chilled week ✌️💚
