Closet Grow, Seedling germinated after 24h in glass of water and 48h in wet paper towel. Substrate dries out quite quick so I have to water every now and then a small amount. Had to spray some insecticides which explains the yellow hue on the leaves.

Seedling is growing nicely, a bit slow perhaps. The other plants will be harvested soon, then I'll be able to lower and dim the lights, to save some costs. First set of leaves look a bit overwatered, but nothing to worry about.

Plant outside fo today, we got some nice sun this weekend. The plant is looking a bit stressed, probably because of either too much water or light, but it should recover.

They do be growing along nicely. I decrease the frequency of waterings down to a few times a week at most, sometimes less if they've only been kept indoors. Also added some nutes to the mix, only a spoonful.

Repotted, she's growing beautiful and recovered with no issues from the transplanting. Will top her when the upper node has finished growing.

Added a small amount of nutes a second time, nothing big. The topping worked well, I've got two main branches but also some good side branches which I am going to try to strengthen and top as well. LST everything 4x.

Plant looks overwatered, no problem; will lessen frequency. Did a lot of defoliation to be able to top once more all 4 nodes to create a total of 8 nodes. Will wait for these to develop and then remove the left over fanleaves. After that she can grow as she wishes, will probably supergroup once in flower to reduce height once more. No nutrients this week.

Plant recovered from the toppings, slight light burn which is now fixed. Nutrients are still on the lower side, doesn't seem to have any deficiencies. Will veg for maybe a couple of weeks until flipping, goal is around 8-12 weeks. Will Supercrop/HST later once the branches have grown out a bit taller. Right now the plant has 8 main branches in a mainlining-alignment.

Still a bit overwatered, nothing to worry about nevertheless. Will keep her on veg for max. 12 week as planned.

Still a bit overwatered, will fix that. One more week of veg and then I'll switch to flower as planned. Probably could've saved a few weeks by proper training but it is what it is.

Flushed yesterday with loads of water due to a little nutrient burn, therefore a bit droopy. Will update fotos tomorrow after watering once more. Small preflower visible, presumably female.

Slight yellowing, will increase N in the next week. LST'd one more, a branch snapped but it was taped, if it will recover we will see next week, signs are good though as the leaves are not browning, at least not yet. Rest is ok, watering frequency has 2-3 dry period, followed by 1-2 days of heavy watering.

LST it once more, grew back beautifully. Broke a stem but I think it recovered by now. Nothing new, continue as planned.

Watering seems to be perfected now, no issues. Slightly reduced fertilizer since new growth is becoming a bit shiny and too dark green. Lower leaves yellowing, no big deal, most die within a week or two. Nevertheless good progress, leaving the LST on. Snapped branch recovered with no issues as well. I'm letting the smaller middle branches in the center of the canopy attached to let the plant maximize photosynthesis. Probably will keep them on the plant even though they won't yield as much as the main colas. Continue as planned. Preflower, no male parts to be seen.

Removed all LST, Flowers are in production, slight production of trichomes visible, not many yet. Yellowing leaves due to flowering, a little excess Nitrogen due to shiny leaves, but nothing bad. Slight Light burn in the middle of the canopy, recovered though. Might take a bit longer to fully ripen as expected.

Flowering, not yet done. Probably another few weeks since it's mostly a sativa. Goal is around 12 weeks of flower. No Training, slight nutrient feeding.
