Seed germinated quickly within a couple of days, although I didn’t manage to get any pics in the first week.

Seedling seems to be reaching a little, we’ve had a lot of overcast so not as much sun as I’d like

Finally got a proper set up, so she was moved into a tent this week. Coming along nicely after first LST, had a problem with leaf miners but managed to get rid fairly quickly.

She seems to be re straightening herself, I think I may need to practice more lst techniques or do it a little earlier next time. However, she’s a lot more bushier than my other plant was, which is due to be harvested soon.

Re attempted lst this week, managed to get her a little more levelled out by tying most of the side branches down and pulling the main cola towards the back of the pot. The lower bud sites will hopefully get more light penetration now

Been a busy few weeks so I’ve missed a few waterings which may of delayed her flower as she’s a late bloomer. Will see how she progresses after upping her feed

Fell behind with updates the last few weeks, although I’m starting to think she’s not actually an auto as I thought she was beginning to flower but I still don’t see any buds forming. Flipped the lights to 12/12 today so we’ll see what happens
