BRF at it again! TP/Gelatto 41 fast grow

[Back Room Farmer]

Solid gold in that room now brother, very nice.

The stack has begun as well. I do notice a couple buds I must have brushed on during defole though. Like pistols look really thin but its like 2-3 of what looks to be almost 100 bud sites combined.

Update Update Update!
So I know it seems like a lot of updates but to be honest there are huge changes daily now. SO all the buds are swelling and have almost doubled in size for most and starting to see trikes all over the sugar leaves now. They are drinking about 3 liters of water a day each and I only check newts at the end of the week as I do res swap every two weeks so I add what is needed at the beginning of the second week. After next week I will start checking newts about every 2 days as I know they will eat more.



Looking great and smelling even better.

Just a pointer on defoliation although i do it myself around 2 weeks into 12/12, its done more cus its not possible for me to remove my plants from room at 3 weeks in once they`re netted up at 14 days into 12/12, so i can`t get in to defoliate both good and proper although i still pick at the bits i can get too till plant has virtually stopped replacing/growing new leaves. But its best done @ 3 weeks in or a wee bit later if possible after stretch is over cus during the first 3 weeks plant is concentrating on growing leaves and stems as it gets bigger faster. But once plant has moved from a vegging type stage and has proper slowed down stretching, growing roots (drop root tonic at this point too) and replacing leaves it will concentrate all its energy on budding up, defoliating done any earlier then your plant will just grow leaves back quicker than if its done a wee bit later basically.

Room looks great now they starting to bud up.

Yeah I remember a convo we had awhile back about that and why I waited till the 3 week mark. stretch is done for sure as they have gotten no taller, I do need to go back over the tp for big fan leaves again but the gelatto is doing wonderful. It is almost the end of week 4 and I am expecting 8-10 weeks total before I chop. so we will see how she goes.

So todays update and again sorry for the daily updates but big changes daily.

Buds are stacking and swelling, surprisingly the gelatto seems to be swelling more but could be a trick as it is a smaller plant. But here you go.



Getting frosty and smelling stronger each day to the point I am considering getting a new bigger filter.

So at day 6 of week 4 I did one last defole. I did however accidentally brush two buds and the pistols turned yellow but I am watching to see what happens. THey are swelling and smelling lol and I have upped Newts today and added hydroguard, next monday will be most likely last res swap. Looking forward to seeing what happens these next few days.



Also entered these babies into a comp so these are week 5 day one pics.



Lets see if I am the lucky one this time.
