Hi all,
This is my first grow. I only have 2 plants and it is an outdoor grow. Both plants are flowering/budding nicely (I am in NZ). I am unsure of the strains as I got given some seeds off a friend, one plant is shorter, thick and quite 'compact' while the other one is what you would call 'lanky'. Can anyone give me an indication as to why these plants look so different? I can provide photos if need be.
Also, as the cut is coming up so, are there any nutrients I can add at this stage to give the buds a last little 'boost'? I have heard a diluted dose of molasses is a good idea, or some form of 'flower bloom' nutrient from the garden store. The plants have been receiving an organic fertilizer dose via root drench every 2 weeks. The bottom few fan leaves have started to yellow and fall off, which I have been led to believe (by scouring these forums) is normal. I am mainly concerned about giving the plants a final nutrient injection to get the most out of them. Would it be good to apply now and then for the final 2 weeks just water to give them a flush?
Thought I would put up a few pictures to show you what I am dealing with. At the being of flowering, I studied both plant thoroughly and came to the conclusion that they must both be females, however I could be mistaken. The shorter, compact one is without a doubt a female, however the lankier one could be otherwise I did not see any of the 'pollen balls' that get mentioned when identifing the sex on the lankier one, so I assumed it was a female and didnt seperate. It is producing nice flowers, but not in the same compact fashion as the other one.
I am growing in pots and both plants are about 2.5 feet tall.
Thanks once again for your help, I hope these photos are good enough.
