Soaked in a glass of water for 3 days, tapped the seed to let it sink ad day 2 (should have done that sooner). Glass was left in the dark and seed was planted when a thiny root was beginning to show. Will use paper towel next time

Seed germinated nicely. Light was dimmed to 50% intensity and is 45cm far from the seedling. Leaves look strange though, I wonder why

Why are the leaves looking so wrinkled? Do you think it might be some light issue? Genetics should be spot on, I grew a seed from the same batch and the plant was pefect

Soil or substrate is too rich in nutrients. Can tell by deep green in plant. Overdosed on food.

Major improvements on the appearance of the leaves. The plant is not perfectly straight, it was actually leaning on one side as if it was tied. I'm planning to do some topping soon. Mainlining is the end goal. Thank you all for stopping by! 🇺🇦 🇷🇺 ☮️

My baby has been transplanted to a bigger pot, topped at the 4th node cleaned of the oldest fan leaves. The leaves in general are very dark green so I am giving just enough water to avoid overfeeding from the soil. Thank you for stopping by and good luck with your ladies!

Think you are experiencing a nute lock out. Your nitrogen level is pretty strong with how dark green the leaves are. My question is are you getting good run off when you water? I thinking you have a fertilizer build up in substrate and it is causing havoc on your ph causing burns and lock out at the same time. Would be where my diagnosis is at.

My girl is growing but still recovering from the highly fertilized soil. No nutrients added so far. Just water pH 6.5. LST ongoing.. I'm considering a final topping before switching to the 12/12 light schedule. I have two main lover branches and two main upper branches, each topped once, now at the same height. I should probably get rid of the lower branches but hurts my heart to cut them now. Anyone needs a clone?

I'm giving a test to the ScrOG method since I had a net that was never used. I think it might be useful since this plant trends to be bushy and short. More updates soon! Hopefully I can flip her at some point. Looks still tiny though 🤔

Day 68. Last week of vegetation for my lady. She could have grown much bigger over this time but I need to switch the lights now otherwise she'll go too deep into summer temperatures and flowers could be compromised. I will switch her in 2 days, at day 70. Tips are a bit burned, I have not given her any nutrients so far as he soil was heavily fertilized. Thanks for stoppping by!

Any suggestion of how could make her look healthier? Tips look burnt and leave color is not great. Also my plant is very short, 25cm. I didn't feed her any nutrients so far, only water pH6.5. The soil (atami kilomix) was heavy fertilized with bat guano. Is she needing something?

She is gorgeous and super healthy she's just super hungry that's all, I'll start introducing cal mag and some veg nutrients less than half the required dosage and feed with a proper schedule and she'll blow up with Budd and spicy smells.. good luck 👍

Flowering day 29. I removed the smaller bud sites located very to low on the branches, raised the light to increase intensity (100%) and started giving some nutrients because I can tell she needs that. We still have a while to go. No smell at all from this beauty!

Flowering day 41. Approaching flowering week 6 and she's all right but the buds are quite small, despite all the training. It might be just bad luck with the genetics in terms of yield. Maybe it's still the best weed I'll ever smoke so trying to be optimistic!

Hey there friend. Would you be alright with me offering some pointers? So cannabis plants LOVE heat and humidity. It is the buds that hate it. In veg we want to take advantage of this fact to help our plants grow along much quicker and more vigorously. In veg we can look for temps of 79-84 MAX with lights on & no more than 9 degrees less with lights off. If we allow for too much temperature swing between lights on and lights off while the plant is still growing vertically up to day 20 of flower, We will cause the plant to stretch ALOT which we do not want. So in veg & early flower, Keeping our temperature gaps nice and close between lights on and off is key. Utilizing humidity in our rooms during veg will also help out a lot with more rapid growth but we must introduce it properly. In our rooms we have our temperature and humidity set-points, But when we combine those 2 it forms a third set-point which is the most important & that is called VPD, Vapor pressure deficit. I strongly recommend every new grower or old grower who has not learned it yet, To study and understand it & implement it into your room, Logging your numbers daily. https://cerescann.com/importance-of-measuring-vpd/ For soil, We generally want to go for a PH of 6.1. This website does a GREAT job of illustrating it with a nice graph & very good detailed explanation for soil. https://autoflowerseedshop.com/cannabis-ph-chart-guide/ As we briefly touched on before, During veg & early flower we want our temperature gap's nice and tight to avoid stretch. Why exactly our plants stretch in response to this is a genetic trigger being activated by the environmental stress essentially telling the plant the end of the season is closer than it really is. In veg & early flower the plant is still in its first stage of development which is to grow up wide and tall so when it produces seed, It can cast them out nicely. Remember, Whether we are growing our plants for seed or bud their genetic responses do not change as they gh sidedo not know any different. Once the plant has finished that first stage of growth by weeks 4-6 of flower with most strains, It is by day 20 of flower. Autoflowers you have to watch for it, But once the plant has finished this goal its new mission is to focus 100% on producing nice big flower clusters & to get very sticky so it can attract pollen to it successfully. So once that vertical growth is finished, We actually now want to begin to expose our plants to larger temperature swings between lights on and lights off. This will help activate that genetic response and allow us to draw out the most potential from the strain utilizing the plants genetic triggers to environmental stresses at the right times. When we are in flower temperature will really play a big role how our buds form up, If our rooms are too cold below 75 they will form very small buds but very very dense. If we grow our buds out at temperature over 80 degrees we get bigger buds, But they can develop airy and foxtail which we do not get much weight from. Also higher temps will defuse the resin glands over time destroying them. We can also take this a step further with doing light deprivation in the last 2 weeks using less light to simulate cloud cover. Very cold feed temps on the last flush is very good too. If you do not have them already, Get yourself a good PAR meter & thermal laser temp gun to monitor your plant top temperatures & optimize how much light your plants are getting. We are currently in the middle of producing a very comprehensive tutorial series for everybody to learn from & understand how to grow the highest level craft cannabis all on their own. If this interests you please check out our youtube and subscribe. The first 2 episodes are out the next one is coming in a few days. If you should ever have any questions or need any help, Please feel free to follow my profile and shoot me a DM. I will gladly help you with the pull down & make sure you get the best quality harvest possible as it is the most important step of the entire process. Happy growing friend!
