I set it on top of a wet paper towel in a sealed jar in the cupboard and then moved to dirt once it sprouted, two days later she emerged.

Made lots of decisions based on my research this week. I’ve decided I’m not going to top this auto, I understand the benefits of topping a regular strain but with my auto already flowering it would be too detrimental. I am going to try implementing LST today now that she’s between her 4th and 5th node. More pictures later. This week I also switched from veg to veg+bloom on my light fixture which sucks cause I had my veggies growing in there too, oh well. I chose to grow the auto! So can’t complain. I started fertilizing with big bloom by fox farm it works amazing. I also realize that I was supposed to start the plant in the pot I intend to finish her in... so I’m going to put her in her final home too. Hopefully it won’t further impact growth. Wednesday update: Repotting into the 3 gal was not graceful. Hopefully she isn’t too mad, haha. My leaves are curling weirdly and be cupped up or down making them appear curled. I live in upstate NY and it’s humid AF here all summer long, so I put my AC in the room of the closet she’s in. We’ll see how that helps, she’s tiny and slow growing.

I overfed her and she is clearly in distress. Straight water until she recovers. Womp womp. Added second LST rope today.

She’s recovering well, has been so saturated I haven’t watered again since the flush. She looks good the stem is getting beefy she’s finally a little more productive. Thinking about defoliating a bit so those bud sites get more light....

Began flushing today. Will flush for 2 weeks and lower the amount of time the light is on gradually to encourage her to push everything out. Sorry for purple pictures but she’s too much of a pain to move after flushing in the tub already ha Battling the 90% humidity here in upstate NY with my ACs, and keeping the door to the grow closet open. Will hopefully reduce the chance of having bud rot. I found it in the main cola of my last grow, prbly cause I kept the door shut no fan either. I’m gunna cringe when my electric bill comes

Did I miss a week? Oops. Supposed to post on sundays… she’s just about done will flush more and decrease to 6-8hr light to pull the purple out & drop the temp in my apt. Then 2 days in the dark then harvest! Exciting Pictures are terrible sorry I’ll post more when I flush
