Week 9 was a tough week for the plants, but they pulled through!
First, we are experiencing a heatwave where I live which has caused me some headaches for figuring out how to make the environment plant-friendly. Growing indoors is much tougher than I thought it would be 😅. So the room where the plants are has reached the max temperature of 38 degrees celsius. I decided to take the plants out of the tent and into my bedroom facing the west side window for ultimate sun exposure. Unfortunately, I cannot have the plants in my bedroom overnight since my husband has allergies. So, I placed them back in the tent at night.
Throughout the week, I took some timelapse videos of the plants in front of the sun, and it is truly fascinating how plants understand the power of the sun, soil, water, and air. I think that plants would rather be grown by sunlight than LED lights, they get to move to the rhythm and speeds of solar and ecosystem, and it's amazing to witness in timelapse!
Anyways, by the end of week 8, the plant looked hungry and big enough to be repotted. So, I gave it some Gaia Gree all-purpose nutrients and repotted her in a larger container with some fresh soil.
The first few days of repotting, the plant seemed to have experience stressed. Its leaves were floppy, and there was not much growth.
By the end of week 9 the plant looked much happier, fuller, and greener!
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!! ❤️💡🌱
