Day 60 - Marijuana Plant Training Begins (super cropping & FIMing)

Day 60 - Marijuana Plant Training Begins (super cropping & FIMing)

The plants are not bushing out as much as we had hoped they would naturally do.  So today ~ 60 days into the vegetative stage, the indica were super cropped and the sativa were FIMed.

The outer four larger smart pots are the Indica's which were super cropped, and the stem was kept in place with a twisty tie and binder clip.

The inner row of smaller smart pots are the Sativa and were FIMed rather than just topped.

Possible sick plant issues: These plants were all off nutrients for about a week. We are going to bring them back into a vegetative friendly nutrient feed at the next watering cycle.  We are hoping that with food these plants will regain their darker green color.

As a safety precaution the 600 watt light was also raised slightly today.

Day 31 - Finally some signs of Greener futures

Day 31 - Finally some signs of Green!!!

So we had a little luck in the past 5 days.  What did we learn.

Coco is an inert medium.  Growing in coco means you are going to be introducing nutrients on a regular schedule.  That is something we did not do for the first 25 days.

In 6 days we have seen almost all 7 of the seedlings double in size.  Many have developed at least one new node in that time.  Finally seeing a little stretching too.

Currently we are feeding 1/4 strength of 5-5-5 fertilizer.  3 Fert feeds and then 1 pure water to prevent any nutrient lock.  Drip to waste style watering.  Lights are still 18/6 (~ 108 Watts of uncapped LED bulbs).

To prevent potential stretching.  The distance between the light and the plants is now ~20 inches.  It was previously around ~24 inches.

Feels pretty good to know that we are slowly getting out of the seedling phase of the grow.  And to have only lost 1 seedling along the way to this point.

Here is are the latest photos of the ladies:
