Ok...
Started with a paper towel in a ziploc bag in a drawer, 2 amnesia haze seeds.
No sign of anything on the 8th...
Small root on the 9th, moved to the hot press
10th, small taproot, moving to a root cube, into a propagator on the windowsill
11th, into the tent, 18/6 light cycle, it's cold though, 60F
12th, brought in a heater, humidity drops to 30% to 50% range
13th, now we can see them, added 2 small humidifiers
14th, progress, one of them is going for it
15th, that seed with the husk doesn't look great, the other one is fine though
16th, ok, we're down to one, tried to pull the husk off and it was all soft and wet... must have been rotten
17th, transplant to solo cup, looking good, added a good bit of water
18th, no change, added a floor fan at the lowest setting... might be a bit much for the tent
19th, not looking great... one of the cotyledons is going dark, i wonder if i overwatered in the transplant?
20th, cotyledon getting darker, added some perlite and gave it a bit of a stir around the outsides, afraid its all dense and overwatered, the bottom of the cup seems pretty wet and i haven't given any water for a while. opened a couple of vents at the bottom of the tent. not worried about any other light going in there, but need more air getting in
21st, i just noticed that the main in line fan is only coming on for emergency situations, when the heat or humidity is super high.... so i reduced everything so its basically running at 5 most of the time, ignoring the cotyledon, there's 2 new leaves sprouting
22nd, new leaves progressing, soil seems damp so leaving her alone
23rd, definite progress. losing that sucker leaf really freaked me out, but she seems to be doing fine and the next set of true leaves are growing slowly
24th, pushing my finger into the soil its definitely not dry in there... not sure how dry it needs to get so I gave her a few sprays of water from a spray bottle
25th, again, not very dry, gave it a few sprays but she's not growing very fast... decided to upgrade the heater in the tent. the fan heater was probably juicing electricity so i got an oil filled rad and i also got a wireless sensor to graph out my temp and humidity to see if i'm actually sitting at the ranges i think i am
26th, sensor telling me that the set up is pretty variable on temp and humidity, so now I wonder if that variability is causing stunted growth?
27th, quite possible that my panic is unjustified... great progress this morning, she looks great
28th, steady as she goes
29th, moving up a bit now. I gave her about 40 sprays of the spray gun in the morning, and just gave her 100ml of filtered water at 6pm
30th, no change, she'll probably suffer a bit now until it dries out over the next few days
31st, nice progress, still not dead, no water today
April1,no water
April2,no water - still feels a bit moist when i stick my finger down into it
3rd, big growth today
4th, no major change
Apr5 - transplant day, off to her new home
Apr6 - definitely looks better than yesterday - 100ml filtered water
Apr7 - better again, no more eater though
Apr12 - haven't touched her for about 5 days, so we'll do 100ml of filtered water today, still no nutes, surely the all mix will cover it for another while? also raised the light a bit
Apr13 to 18 - zero touch, just took photos, no nutes, no water
Apr19 - it's been about a week since she last had any water, but the leaves are still a nice dark green and i'm not seeing any signs of wilting or anything like that.... might wait until tomorrow and give her a small dose of nutes with some water
Apr20 - worried that i didn't fill up the pot with enough soil, so it's sitting a bit low... might tackle that in the next couple of days. today though 250ml with 0.25ml of bio-bizz grow
Apr21 - no water
Apr22 - no water, feels light and dry
Apr23 - thinking about topping tomorrow
Apr24 - topping done, right at the top, 5 or 6 nodes up, also a small bit of defoliation at the bottom
Apr25 - removed a few more lower leaves, i'll add more soil tomorrow
Apr26 - seems fine
Apr27 - forgot to check on her
Apr28 - fuck... she needs water badly... gave 300ml with 0.5ml of BioBizz grow
Apr29 - seems to have recovered well from the drought
Apr30 - going away for the weekend, so added another 150ml of just water and topped the pot with some all mix... let's see if she survives for 3 days
Apr31 - ?
May1 - ?
May2 - ?
May3 - looks ok after being left alone for a few days. no major growth in that time though...
May4 - 250ml filtered water and a small bit of defoliation. Big fan leaf at the bottom was pretty burnt
May5 - well the water was definitely needed anyway!
May6
May7 - 250ml filtered water
May8
May9
May10 - growth around where I topped is flying - i've raised up the light another bit
May11 - 250ml water
May12
May13 - 250ml with 0.5ml of biobizz grow, growth was mad there around the 10th, but its a bit slower now
May14 - took out all of the bigger leaves, removed some of the smaller leaves along some of the stronger looking lower branches to try to encourage more growth at the end bud site and used some flexible garden wire to do some LST
May15 - watched a video about topping... decided to have a go
May16 - 250ml with 0.5ml biobizz
May17(Day 67) - growth looks strong
May18 - looking good, no water
May19 - 250ml with 0.5ml biobizz
May20 - looking good, no water
May21 - looking good, no water
May22 - 250ml with 0.5ml biobizz
May23
May24
May25 - 500ml with 1ml of biogrow, small bit of runoff, but I think that's because the water found a pocket at one side of the pot where the soil was a bit loose
May26
May27
May28 - 500ml with 1ml of biogrow
May29 - 500ml with 1ml of biogrow and 1ml of biobloom. flipping to flower tomorrow. There are pistols which I think mean its ready and I didn't realise that this thing will likely double in size in flowering... i thought veg was for size and flower was for flower so I guess that's a pretty major learning point! so tonight will be the first night of 12 hours sleep and that's what I'm calling the start of flowering
Week Start: May 30 (Flower Day 1, Overall Day 80, Plant height 10.5", Main Stem height 4.5")
May30 - Day 1 of flower, she had water yesterday and that's the first 12hour sleep she's had, so i'll leave her alone for a couple of days
May31
