D8.
The first day in the second week of veg. Nothing to report, really.
------------------------------
D10.
I mixed up and gave the girl some nematode water as part of my IPM. Usually, I do that before I transplant, but it got delayed due to covid.

D12.
Uneventful. Basically, we're in waiting mode until she is big enough to start training.
------------------------------
D14.
Today was the last day in the second week of veg. She is still too young to start training, so it's pretty hands-off at this stage.
I foliar fed for the first time today. I mixed up some pure fulvic acid with a drop of soap to act as a surfactant and sprayed her just before lights out to avoid any burn-in issues. I plan on foliar feeding like this, once per week, up until the start of flower. My first grow with fulvic acid, so I am curious to see the results.
Another thing I'll be testing for the first time is watering with humic acid once per week. However, the soil still has a lot of moisture (41 mbar), so it'll be a while until I water next time.
However, I put some alfalfa seeds in water, and in a few days, I will turn that into a sprouted-seed tea and give her.
The light is dimmed to 25% (no IR or UV), and the measured DLI is around 22. I should slowly ramp that up now that she's out of the seedlings stage. She has some growing to do in the following weeks and will love getting more light.

Very nice 😊 I love picture 11 "D60. Gorilla left, Purplematic right"
could it be that the shape of the leaves look almost the same?
coincidentally through the same genetics?
or
could it be because of the light?
@Grow_with_Cookie, Thank you :) You're correct that the leaf shape is very similar, but they feel completely different. The Gorilla girl has soft leaves, while the Purplematic girl has very stiff leaves. I have never seen leaves this stiff, and they are even quite "scratchy" to the touch.
Nice Diary, very interesting to me seeing all your strategies and regiments. I didn't notice you had more grows up after the summer until today. Excellent! Excited to follow along and see how these ladies turn out.
