This plant has slightly suffered in its first few weeks. I started her off from seed in a jiffy pellet in the kitchen window where she sprouted with 4 days. I transfered her to my matrix tent under my maxibright t5 light and instantly discovered her covered in aphids. Luckily she was only small so easy to get under control using plant chemist insect control. I topped above the second set of 5 bladed leafs as these are always stronger than the first set. After around a week I trimmed of anything below these top leafs. From here on my aim was to start nipping out and dividing these 2 tips until I had 16 tips starting off in a 1l pot then moving on to a 16l fabric pot. I used canna start up until I switched over to 12/12. I make my own nets it only cost ยฃ1 so you don't mind cutting and manipulating them as you grow. When she starts getting bigger I change lights to my kingbo led until I switch to 12/12. I'm now 10 days into 12/12 and she's drinking 5l every other day with canna cocoa a&b at 14ml of each to a litre of water. I follow canna grow chart and use the light, medium and heavy feeding guide as the plant needs it. I'm now using my lumii black dimmable ballast and a 250w omega hps bulb leaning into the red light spectrum. She has stretched a bit more than I'd hoped but that's probably down to the heatwave we have had where I struggled to keep my temps below 36 for a few days but everything seem to be going well now
