Ya these things are tough man. We treat them like babies because we cherish them and watch them grow into these beautiful things.....but at the end of the day there WEEDS LOL! They will GROW!
Man....I thought the same thing.....those branches are like steel....which is bad I heard but it takes some force to move them. I untied it from when I had it spread and it is so much happier!
In hindsight....when it split I should have untied it I think and it would have recovered a lot more...
So the girls are doing well. I removed the tie downs on the gorilla glue and pruned the fan leaves. I also did something that made me cringe but I stabbed the soil with a 1 cm thick pole 7 times around the pot. I could feel the roots tearing apart because they are so bound up....BUT....IT LOVED...
She's not lifting the leaves but I'm pretty sure the pot is too small too support the growth she needed and could have used. I mean the durban has almost 2 months less and she is BIG. Lesson learned.
The stalks on the gorilla glue are incredibly strong tho. I tied the durban down a bit to open...
So here it is. I waited until she was thirsty to water her....to prevent any chance of root rot and flush again with water and she is significantly doing better. Sad today from thirst but overall doing good.....I think. I watered today with
1tsp bloom (its 4 tsp per gallon so went 1/4 strength)...
Good info and yes for sure about the tea. Learned an overload about fertilizing and nutrition. Next year will be better.
The plant is starting to get stinky. Not sure how far along she is but thinking 2 weeks ish. Resin is starting and a bird shit on the leaf!!! Watching very closely for PM...
