The Pineapple Express has been doing well in its adjusted environment, and this week it grew 1 inch in height and lots of new leaves. I also purchased a humidity and temperature meter, which have come in handy during a week of weather fluctuation. This week I watered the plant on Monday and Thursday and spritzed in between.
August 6:
The plant is looking big and healthy. Lots of new leaves at the top and at the bottom. I added extra light to the tent using the Philips LED Plant Grow Light Bulb (40 watts) at ground level and there are baby leaves peaking out of the stem. The smell of the pineapple express is subtle, however, up close it is pungent and noticeable. So far, it only smells like "cannabis," I don't know how else to explain it. I also noticed that some of the leaf stems are turning red! It is pretty and amazing how plants start changing colours 😊.
I also forgot to turn off the Philips light overnight, so now the plant has experience 24 hr of light 😅. Hopefully, this does not damage or stress the plant too much.
They look perfectly healthy now 😺👌...this ability to "veg out" our mistakes before flower is enough to keep us from buying autos (although we have been gifted many) ...you were wise to start with a photoperiod as your first grow, you'll likely have way more to show at the end because of this....good luck, following ya!! ❤️💡🌱
