She has been poppin quite beautifully! I have begun LST'ing and removed some larger fan leaves to make room for newer growth along the LSTed branches. As of yesterday I have noticed a whole bunch of pistils creeping out from various locations. Makes me happy to see shes on her way to yumminess! Cant wait about another week or two and she'll be in full flower!

Day 30 - I have really beat the hell out this plant but its still alive and kicking fairly well. Tons of flowers have started to form all along secondary branches and nodes. Plethora of calyxes and hairs. Even think I'm beginning to notice lil THC crystals pop op on some of the sugar leaves that are forming. YAY! been 15 years since I've had the pleasure of watching one of my grrls flower! Next post will be a flower update, lol, yay! :) Day 28 - Lost an entire node/branch the other day. My GF cat found his way into my tent while I was in the other room and decided she was going to try and eat some of my plant, lol I am totally in shock how quickly she bounced back but I am sure its going to stunt bud development. Well I've made a few other minor mistakes with her but again she is my first grow in over 15 years so mistakes will be made. Hence why I bought cheap auto seeds to practice and play with first. She has started to flower so that is exciting. Not sure if its her pheno type or the mistakes I've made but she is a bit small. Day 26 - She has taking a beating from my lack of experience and the fact that I am a little green behind the ears. Been learning quite a bit from the couple mistakes I've made. She certainly looks like shes beginning to flower. Am stopping the LST and will just be pruning her as needed going further. Day 24 - Def. been over watering. Will not be getting any large yields off this girl but its OK, live and learn, will learn from my mistakes and implement my corrections. Day 22 - Found two leaves this morning posted pics above, any suggestions as to what it could be? I had just fed her two days prior with her watering. I was thinking possible over watering? Other than this she has been responding well to the LST and little bit of pruning I've done to clean her up a bit.

End of week 5(flower) - She is coming along really nicely. Her flowers on the main cola are starting to intertwine and become one solid Thai Stick. Yes, I am fully aware that this terminology dates me, lol. She is although small due to the immense amount of LST and trimming I did to her pre flower. My whole goal was to see if I could still master manipulate via LST like I used to back when I cultivated many years ago. Keep in mind this is my first grow in over 15 years. I am aware that her yield wont be very high but again that was not my goal with her. I was simply seeing if I still possessed the skills from years past. Come to find out its like riding a bike, lol. My next grow will be a mix of autos and photos. Now that I know I still have a green thumb I am ready to find me a few killer mother plants and start having some real fun! Finalized the LST on her. She looks just how I want her to right before she hits full flower power! Wanted to make her look like a candelabra think I pretty much succeeded in that dept. Now lets just see if I did too much and completely stunted her growth? Will find out in the next week or two. She looks pretty good thus far so I have faith she'll be just fine.. I am counting on having finished up the LST just before her "Stretch" starts. I am pretty confident I timed everything just right but only further time will tell.. Either way I certainly learned a lot from this grow and kept a fuck ton of personal notes so goal achieved there. Woot! Took some Trichome pics! will be investing in a USB microscope to add to the pocket one I have so its easier to photograph.

7/14/2018 - Friend wanted to sample a lil bit so I plucked a small branch off and trimmed it up for him. It was good to get the practice anyway. Its been awhile since Ive trimmed! Woot! So excited for the actual harvest bout another 3 maybe 4 weeks depending on what happens with the lil mushroomheads, I might add shes looking mighty delicious already! Lemme know what yall think of my trimming? Should I try and gut some more of the baby single sugar leaves? I didnt want to dig in to far and disrupt the cola. Anyway shes hangin up to dry than into a jar for awhile... I toldem cause he wanted it so damn early he had to at the very least let me properly cure the lil girl! lol PS- My camera sucks but she is covered in trichomes and so are the sugar leaves/trimmings. 7/09/2018 - Had to cut off one of the three branches on her. Saw what looked like a lil bit of mold or something that did not belong so I take no chances and just chopped off that entire branch. The rest of her looks absolutely stupendous! Flower is coming together rather nicely. Ive started adding in some FlawlessFinish and Back strap Molasses during her typical watering schedule. Have deff noticed a difference in her over all smell and trichome production has gone way way up since Ive added those two things to her watering cycle. Other than the mishap with the one branch shes doing super good filling out and all... Even though I wont yield much from her cause she was a large experiment in LST and pruning, successful might I add, She will be a chunky sticky icky dense bud I can tell that already. 😀

7/25/2018 - Ive added some new photos. tried to get some decent trichomes very difficult holding the camera steady and the jewelers loupe, lol. Need to invest in a tripod. Anywho also got some close ups of the flower itself. I measured the circumference of both flowers on this girl. She is phat with beautiful flower and resin. Main Cola - 9 1/2' at base of flower and 2' at top. very heavy and filled with yumminess! Extremely dense and the aroma is pleasant diesel with a hint of pine and nutty after thoughts. Second Cola - 5 3/4' at base and 2' at top. Very dense and covered in crystals. Yum Yum! Also flushed today and clipped off all remaining fan/water leaves. I will be harvesting in two weeks. 7/24/2018 - Last few days have been very tropical here in NewEngland. Have been worried about my temps and moisture going up up and away. Almost hit 90+ in my basement yesterday. Mind you my basement is all below ground! Yikes! is right! Had to run out and buy a portable A/C unit. Luckily there does not seem to have been any damage caused to my girls. Just trying to avoid bud rot so I got extra fans so I can make sure they have proper circulation. Other than that I flushed her the other day. Bout 2-3 more weeks and she will be ready. I will be posting pics of some close up trichomes in my next update! Remember, do not hate! Cultivate! :)

I LSD'ed the holy hell out of her so my yield was really low however larger than I expected. I will reupdate when they are done curing and I have the dry weight for you... The pics below are wet weight of both branches and a small one that was growing between them. If you follow my grow you will see that my intention was to LST into a candelabra form just for HAHA's and to see if I could do it correctly. So in that respect mission complete'ed. I exp a little bit of bud rot about 2 weeks into flowering. This was my fault as I did not have enuff airflow at the time but I removed that one branch and remedied the sit with no further problems at all. Over all was a pleasure to grow. This was my first grow in over 15 years. So I know I made some mistakes and will implement what I've learned into future grows! I really hope this has or will help future cultivators. I know it certainly will for myself. Cure process start: 8/7/18 Cure Finish: 0

Nice plant! Have you figured out what the drooping is from? Been battling it myself, for me increasing light and air and only water once soil is over an inch dry on surface solved my problems. Let me know if this helps for you too! :)

it says you use 17L of water a day on a 35L pot ? I'm sure that's not right

No it's not. Have issues figuring out the water usage on here... I've been watering her as she needs. However yesterday I think I may have over done it as the drainage was much higher than usual.
the end.
