Plant is not healthy, weak yellowish green colour, lower leaves dying, poor growth. I have made too many mistakes. Update 7/2/23: As you can see from my comment above, at this point I was really down about this grow, I knew I had made many errors and I knew my plant looked small, weak, and unwell. It was the negativity I was feeling about this grow (and Bertha), that prompted me to plant Citronella and Nesia. I later added the comparison photo you see at the beginning of the week. This highlights just how pathetically small and weak Karen was by comparison to Citronella, Misty, and Nesia. At the end of this week something changed; I "got the bug". I stopped half-arsing and muddling along, and started taking it seriously. From week four onwards I was doing thorough research, testing more, measuring more, photographing more, monitoring more, just all around focusing more on the project and trying to improve and learn as a grower. You will see the difference this has made on all of my current grows and diaries, I hope you enjoy next week, from here and for probably all of the rest of the weeks, you will be consistently surprised by what Karen achieves as she recovers from this most horrendous start.

@z4z0z They were out of drosera so I got a pinguicula and a sarracenia for now.

@Z4Z0Z, I'll go back and get some drosera when they're in stock. Apparently delivery day Friday.

@UnorthadoxDude , super nice ! They both look very healthy ! I'm not into them, but that's a wonderful small sarracenia !

So I have been spending some time looking for other King's Kush Auto grows, and I have looked at, well all of them on here. Karen is, at least in my opinion anyway, already way more frosty looking than any of the other grows I have found. Hard to quantify but I have developed a theory, which in a future grow I will test.
UnorthadoxDude
UnorthadoxDude
@@@Sinsemii, sure okay, well. I think there are two primary factors that can be variable that I think have made this difference, one is stress and the other is the companion plants. I suspect that both have combined good effect. It is just a theory but I think at least part of my next grow will be running comparison experiments. To test this I propose something like: Uniform single strain seeds - the F1's would be good for this I think. Identical containers Identical substrate Identical nutrition Identical environment The idea here is to plant the following combinations: For my space I'd probably choose 20l pots. 2 x no companions 2 x One companion only 2 x Other companion only 2 x both companions Then from this group one half would be trained with regular LST and defoliation, the other not trained. This way I get to see the following combinations: No training: 1 x no companions 1 x One companion only 1 x Other companion only 1 x both companions Full training: 1 x no companions 1 x One companion only 1 x Other companion only 1 x both companions This way I can really compare and see what is making the difference. I may use smaller pots and more numerous plants due to space but it is one for the future. Who knows perhaps someone will beat me to it. I do not know if my diaries have had any influence at all, I rather doubt it, but I seem to have started to notice a few more diaries with companion plants lately.

Your tent is rad dude. I like the combination of other flowers and plants
UnorthadoxDude
UnorthadoxDude
@Z4Z0Z, The tent smells mostly of Basil and Chamomile - especially when I brush against it. Karen is the strongest smelling cannabis plant in the tent and you can certainly smell her above everything else, but the overall smells is a combination of basil chamomile lemons and weed. lol

@UnorthadoxDude, Looks great to me! I understand, it is hard to get good photos that can really show the details and capture all the magic that is happening.

UnorthadoxDude
@MedicineMaker, Thanks! They're still not really where I want them to be. I need to get a better photography setup - better camera, better lighting, etc. It is nice to see that the level of frost is clear with the different photos.

You weren't kidding. Karen bounced back with a vengeance! Look at her now!
UnorthadoxDude
UnorthadoxDude
@SmokieMcPot, no, joking I was not! Hah! Look at the state of her in week 2 and 3, I am not sure how she even survived my "care and attention". Then in week 4 she starts growing and, well just doesn't bloody stop! Week 4 by the way, is when I stopped pissing about and started taking it a bit more seriously.

Karen making such a nice recovery! Wishing ya the best of luck. I had to look a few timesโ€ฆI thought ya were growing dill herb in the same pot, and maybe some basil? When I did my outdoor grow, I surround her in dill and basil, they seemed to love each other as company, but just not the same pot. Lol. Love your grow though! ๐Ÿ˜Š
UnorthadoxDude
UnorthadoxDude
@NorthEquinoix, haha that's awesome thank you. Yeah give them a try, or wait and see how it pans out for me! I love watching them grow I should have done diaries for the herbs. Basil increases terpene profile and improves flavour, chamomile stimulates the production of essential oils in most nearby plants... together they should amplify each other's effects. That is my theory. I'm just having a look at your grows now... in the middle of a big reorganisation and I have stopped for a smoke. ๐Ÿ˜Œ

@UnorthadoxDude, no worries at all! I loved seeing it actually. And German chamomile! Thanks for letting me know what that was,lol. I love herbs of any kind but have been a little Leary of adding them to my indoor tents, hopefully I get more courage on the next run. Lol Iโ€™ll be sending ya good grow vibes for Karen and the other girls! Woot woot!๐Ÿ˜
UnorthadoxDude
UnorthadoxDude
@NorthEquinoix, thanks man! Hah it's basil and german chamomile! They have to be connected via the roots for the effects that I want to happen so they have to be in the same pot! Don't worry though there is plenty of nutes for all.
