Jenji Posted June 7, 2020 Author Share Posted June 7, 2020 Laughing buddha ladies are coming along nicely. It was a slow start due to my noobness lol. I definitely put them under stress. Not in any rush though. Their colour is finally looking good. I will take cuttings soon before flipping them to flower. They have a long flowering period ( 11-12 weeks). I am grateful I will be off for the summer months and able to tend them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torken Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Hello friend, I think they are in perfect condition to put them into bloom. I think that with ten days is enough to achieve the objectives that I am looking for, which is to get over the fence quickly and create very long internodal distances as you can see in my follow-up after the fourth week of flowering the growth is slower and the location of the flowers begins to be marked but with the mantle well selected and formed above the fence leaving all the lower part free for air recirculation _________ Hola amigo creo que están en perfecto estado para ponerlas en floración yo creo que con diez días es suficiente para conseguir los objetivos que busco que es llegar por encima de la reja rápidamente y crean unas distancias internodales muy extensas como puedes ver en mi seguimiento después de la cuarta semana de floración el crecimiento es más lento y se empieza a marcar la ubicación de las flores pero con el manto bien seleccionado y formado por encima de la reja dejando toda la parte baja libre para la recirculacion del aire 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenji Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 @R.G.S Awesome! Yes, I'm excited to flip them to flower. I'm going to take a few cuttings for clones beforehand. Should I give them a few days after I cut before putting them to flower or it doesn't matter? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasmeter Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 @Jenji ur plants are looking nice an healthy great job Good question bout giving the plants time to recover after taking cuttings for clones, if you in no hurry to flip them its probably worth giving them a couple of days to recover before you flip the photoperiod to 12/12. Even if you don't they should be OK because they really start growing as they stretch to make room for the buds, I usually still feed veg nutrients in the first 2 weeks of flowering then I start to give them some bloom feed and by then they have almost stopped stretching and have started building bud. Hopefully someone else with more experience will provide their thoughts and advice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torken Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 @Jenji I can not help you on cuttings since I do not usually do them, I hope that some of the friends @OG.Naj or @g22 can advise you _______ Yo no puedo ayudarte en tema esquejes ya que no suelo hacerlos, espero que alguno de los amigo @OG.Naj o @g22 puedan asesorarte 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenji Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 @gasmeter Perfect, thank you That is what I will do then. Maybe just a day or two as like you said they will stretch. Thank you for the tip on the veg feed for the first bit of flower period. Makes sense with the stretching. I'm trying not to feed the plant directly but rather the microbes in the soil but was thinking of "cheating" a bit with some organic gaia green power bloom for the flowering period, especially where it is such a long flowering. I can't imagine there are enough amendments in the soil to take them the whole way without adding some food. Something I'd like to experiment with down the line.

It doesn't really matter if you don't cut to much 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take the cutting with the lower stem is ok to flowering directly. If you take cuttind with the apical stem is better to let the plant recover 7-10 day and after switch to bloom. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenji Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 @OG.Naj Thank you for the advice Much appreciated! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenji Posted July 1, 2020 Author Share Posted July 1, 2020 Last week I took some cuttings and on the advice of @OG.Naj I gave the girls a week to recover from the stress before flipping to 12:12. I gave the clover a trim and trimmed off a few of the lower leaves/smaller branches at the bottom and added rouchly 1/4cup of Gaia Green Power bloom to hopefully take these girls through their long bloom stage of about 11 weeks. They are standing pretty tall at around 1foot 9 inches and that is with the netting. I have ordered another net to hopefully keep these girls as low as possible. Can't have them hitting the lights! Also, installed a 6" AC Infinity inline fan for outtake and attached that to a 6" Vivosun carbon filter. It's been sooo humid here lately and I'm struggling with keeping humidity low ( it is hovering between 80%-90%) and I know that's not good. I will bring in the de-humidifier today. Oh and just after flipping to bloom cycle ( of course) I've noticed two leaves are looking wonky. They are each on separate plants. I've inspected closely for pests but did not find anything ( that doesnt mean they arent there). Please let me know what you think about the damaged leaves and should I be concerned?? Hope you are all well and healthy! @Cannabissapean missing you friend! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OG.Naj Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Hi brother, Dont worry for the two leafs if they are the only one with that... just watch the next few day if that stay like this or if you have more leaf damage. Your plant looks amazing healthy, you make a nice training job on her, well done! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenji Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 @OG.Naj Thank you for the kind words and for helping put my mind at ease over the wonky leaves. Happy growing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
