Mimosa EVO lution

All good all good She is forming her second little leaves and growing strong She is a quite the light seeker and always turning her head towards what she deems the best light She seem to prefer the LED over the Flouro T5's -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 Mostly just RO water, the soil has a decent amount of nutrients in it so no need to bang her just yet with the stronger stuff, she has time Gave her a shot of RootPro when I fed the Banana Blaze but I think she will enjoy it Happy ROOTS Happy SHOOTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 Coldest front ever!! We had snow in our town for the first time in 60 odd years! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 A Few fungus gnats but they have been dealt with now -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪

So someone got very busy this week After the little stint with bad bioneem, she like her counterpart bounced back very hard and fast. Still a few scorch marks on her first leaves but those wont matter much longer as she keeps growing quickly These plants are so nice and easy to manage in small pots 😀 but at this rate she wont be in the small pot for very long -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 Light Bio-heaven dose with RO water -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 Cold week again, but tent is sitting in some nice temps :) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 A Few fungus gnats here and there... the traps are getting them though -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪 No training yet....not till she has grown up a bit more

She is still going strong in her little pot, so easy to manage compared to going straight to big pots It seems I gave her a bit too much nitrogen somehow...may just be the Bio-heaven though... but it looks like she is getting over it RO water for the next week I think. Topping will start soon as I need to start widening her early to keep her in line with my project. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 Was giving her RO and Bio-heaven and every second water, plain rain water This combo worked well for a while but now it seems Nitrogen has become a small issue, will fix with plain RO -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 Cold Warm Cold Warm Cold Warm From a weird ass winter, to a weird ass spring -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 Not a hint...happiness -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪 Topping soon

She moved into her new home this week I noticed her roots pushing out the small pot and realised its time she move into her big girl growbag - part 1 of the plan is now complete 😁 But my goodness those roots were looking magic She seems to be handling it quite well, little bit of discoloration and drooping but that was to be expected -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 Drenched her with some Humigro to give the soil and her and the soil a bit of a booster for a healthy future -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 Weird winter holding onto us all the way through spring -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 Fungus gnats made a comeback... but they are being dealt with -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪 Nothing yet, but soon we will start chopping a bit

Repotting went well, she has adjusted nicely to her new big bag. Now the work begins, she was already a bit tall when I started bending her as I work towards a big wide canopy to try and fill the tent. Anyway if she gets to tall I have a net ready to keep her down and will add it when I switch over to the HID lights. Right now I am still vegging her under T5's Fluorescents. She is a little stressed so a bit of colouring on the stems but I am sure she will come back. She also has a small nitrogen toxicity after the last feeding so I will give her some plain water for the next two feeds. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 I did add some Fishmix and Heaven but I think I pushed her a bit after the repotting into new Soil which has nutrients in it already, so time for some plain water feeding I think. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 Spring weather - Hot and Rain - tent is nice and cool on the floor tiles though -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 Not a hint...happiness -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪 Bending her down very hard at the moment, almost thought I was going to snap a branch 😆 Time to train those arms!!

Things are going quite well considering the amount of stress I am putting on the plant. Aside from the nitrogen toxicity she picked up - I think it may be from the humic acid mix I added to her soil and the Biobizz Heaven it may have just been a bit too much after the repotting. She is standing up even with all the topping I did this week on her, I topped almost all her external nodes (we need width not height!!!) She is still under the fluorescent and soon as I am back from my trip I will move her over the the MH light -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 Just water, no need to add anymore toxicity or stress. I just want her to handle the current bending and topping -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 Rain and rain and more rain -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 Nothing -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪 Lots of topping this week to get width Bending her down hard for the time being, need strong branches for my plan to come together.

Early entry as I am going for a few days on a fishing trip 😬 This girl is like two face at the moment Her original leaves are still heavily showing signs of Nitrogen toxicity Her new growth is very healthy Not sure if the old growth will ever come right, but thats okay she is growing exactly like I want her to Her branches are growing vertically while the main topped stem and bottom branches are coming out horizontally, a few more weeks and the stage will be set 😁 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 Rain water with toxicity still around Will nute when I get back and swap to bigger light -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 Rain is gone, heat is coming Lets see how this plays out -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 Not a hint...happiness -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪 Fighting to keep her branches down, this girl is bench pressing the wire

And im back to working on this diary again Between being sick after my fishing tournament and moving house in the near future I just have not had the time. Anyway as you can see she has grown like crazy since the last time I updated I was fighting a Nitrogen toxicity which I still think was from my humic acids mix and PH levels (I never check the Humic acid drench)(Yes I am a dumbass) and I think I drenched the soil with very high PH mixture Then I broke a branch by accident trying to bend her down... So I made her a splint with a toothpick and some tape and now that branch is the tallest and strongest of the bunch... HOORAH But as you can see I am bending her down like she is in a yoga studio 😃 - DOWNWARD FACING DOG MAM AAAAAAAAND STRETCH I also moved her over to a new light MH250 - she took some strain and I don't think she liked this new increase in transpiration... but she is adjusting well now I literally flipped her today and will be installing netting soon in anticipation of preflower stretch. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 Very very low dose of nutrients, the soil still seem to be holding some good food for her and she was a bit sensitive with the repotting and light change etc etc 2L of water per feed and nutrients at 1L of measurement -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 Getting warmer and warmer -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 Not a hint...happiness -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪 As mentioned above Bending her like a yoga pretzel Defoliation happening soon

She seems to have responded quite quickly to flipping her over to 12/12 lighting Her old leaves are still a bit weak and droopy from the old nitrogen toxicity but the new growth is looking very healthy and standing up Need to pull those leaves off after next watering, I have chopped her bottom half though as we can see from the pics. Flipped her over to flowering regime of nutrients also -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💦Water and Nutes💦 Flowering nutes as of last week Out with the smelly fishmix and in with the grow and bloom -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🌞🌩️Weather🌩️🌞 all over the place -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🐛Pests🐛 Nothing to see here -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 💪Training💪 Bending her down very hard Completely removed all bottom growth
