My Epic Rubbermaid Growing Room

[piper32]

if you look closely I swear I think there is a 3rd stalk down there trying to grow out. This is just getting more weird by the day.




I'll get a close up next.

Gave her some water. Kept pouring and pouring and pouring and finally got some runoff. She obviously needed it because she soaked up at least a gallon.

haha, dang on the watering. how old is she now? i'm sure there are some nice roots down below. start measureing her intake on water so you can setup a feeding schedual.

head over to wal-mart or similar and go to the home cleaning supplies. find a marked spray bottle, it should be marked in ml (milliliters) and in cups or something. anything with milliliters is good. then go to the food storage area (like tupperware stuff) and find some kinda 1 or 2 gallon pitcher so you can mix your ferts. :P

just mix in the gallon container, pour into the spray bottle, and feed. this way you can keep a close eye on her intake and how much food you're giving her.

i believe my old grow, the plant was turning 4 weeks old and drank 500ml every 36-42 hours. at least thats what i fed her and she liked it! don't quote my numbers there just thinking back.

oh and a note on that 3rd? branch .. i think it may just be a branch on stem number 1 as you labeled them in paint. lol

for some reason it doesn't have an alternate node growing though so it could possibly be an entire third main stem? o.O

time will tell

I wasn't planning on adding any extra nutrients. There are time release fertilizers in the soil.

She perked up good.

If you look closely the alternating growth on the other side of the "3rd stalk" is the one-leaf fan leaf that has made the lil girl look weird from the beginning. Why wasn't the "3rd stalk" a fan leaf? This is some weird shit right here.

[piper32]

I grew some courage and LST the lil girl. How did I do?

[bouncyball]

perfect! be sure and keep those first stems LOW and exactly where you want them. as she ages they grow thicker and those will be nearly impossible to control after about 4 weeks.

LST is fun to watch - heres a link to the post where i started to LST my first plant

last post of the thread sums it all up.

[nomel90]

That LST looks great man good job

First time I've ever seen 2 LST's going seperate ways +rep

[bouncyball]

how's the LST coming? i know how 3 days can change a plant once it's in full veg mode. any 7 pt leaves starting?

[The Green Man]

I would count your blessings on that plant you have. I had one that grew 2 main shoots instead of one, I would be so happy if I had 3 lol. Seriously you should top all the 3 shoots and you'll get some crazy main colas going on lol.

Good luck with the grow bro, cant wait for some updates.
