Hi, how's it going?. Here's a little outdoor run, summer here, and they got off to a late start. Two Malawi regs in the fabric pot, three Zapateca Tributes at the end, and two M x PCK fems and Congos on the opposite side. (the smaller pot is something else) I started these indoors under fluoros for two weeks under 14 hours and now they're outside, and getting similar amount of day hours. Prob about three weeks old total from breaking ground. One of the Congos i fucked up on transplant, it was too dry, rootball fell apart, shame on me. It was very vigorous, but has slowed down. Plants have been attacked by small catterpillars and maybe also some leafminers. I was away from the grow, blumats help but they also make you less on top of your IPM, at least when you're running them for the second time like me. Hopefully, I've learned. I'll start seriously fighting back and see how they respond. Soil is peat, compost, perlite, some bio char, rock minerals, bokashi, and some ground up shells.
My question is I have another 35 days of veg or so before they flower, i don't want them to get too huge (over 4/5 ft). Should I top them, and when and which ones? They've just put out their fifth nodes. Which ones should I def top, and which ones should I not. I'm not sure what shape to expect. Also, I think soil has enough nutes for a while but would be good to know which ones I should feed once they start to flower.
Thanks all, love this forum. Really looking forward to trying these genetics. Last time, it was Peruvian bx and Malawi x Moz , and it turned out pretty good but pots were smaller so were my yields. This time I'm hoping for more with bigger pots. Fabric pot is 20 gal, and other pots are 5 gallon.
