Grow 1 - OG Kush

20230401 - Day 22: The node shoots from below are already making their way through the upper fan leaves that I decided to leave in place after topping. The top clone itself is not looking so hot at Day 2. The fan leaves are drooping and starting to yellow. There is certainly a chance it won't root, but I am hoping it will start to perk up in the next 24hrs. Will check again this afternoon and will drain any water still in the pot to ensure it's not continuously being absorbed by the root cube, as the over saturation there could be an issue. 20230402 - Day 23: The node shoots are rapidly popping up through the fan leaf canopy, way faster than I anticipated after topping. I am considering whether or not so low stress training implemented now would help her to bush out a bit more instead of reaching for the sky. Will continue to reflect. The top clone hasn't changed from yesterday. Still looking super sad with further yellowing at the tips of the fan leaves. Water 20230403 - Day 24: I decided to give some LST a try using some dowels, safety pins and hand made wire hooks. Initially, it looked like things would be a success, but when I checked her after lights out I found one of her branches had snapped 😧! I tried a simple fix with some scotch tape. The end of the limb itself was still looking good, so I'm hoping it will just be stressed for a bit and self repair with time. The other limbs seem to be handling things well though. The top clone fan leaves have begun to yellow further and she is still looking super sad, but I'm not giving up on her yet. 20230404 - Day 25: Aside from the broken limb, which is looking much less happy today, the plant is growing great! I may need to do something about the shoots towards the top or they'll start to out-grow everything else in a couple more days. It's also about time to take off the upper fan leaves to allow more light through the canopy as I move towards switching to flowering his girl. I think I'll do some pruning early next week and then flip her the week after. The top clone hasn't gotten any worse, but also hasn't gotten any better, so I'll continue to give her more time to recover. Water 20230405 - Day 26: Definitely will do some pruning at the start of week 5. The broken limb is perking up a bit. A couple of the fan leaves on there are still looking pretty wilted, but the rest of it is growing well now. The top clone seems to actually be perking up! The leaves are less wilted and feel firmer. I am hoping this is a sign some rooting is occurring, although I still can't see anything obvious. Will likely move monitoring this clone to another diary after this week if things continue to progress well. 20230406 - Day 27: The two fan leaves on the broken limb are still pretty limp, but the rest of the limb is doing great, so I am getting hopeful it can stay. The top clone has managed to "survive" a whole week! I'm going to continue posting on her in another diary starting tomorrow in hopes she might actually survive. 20230407 - Day 28: While one of the fan leaves on the broken limb yellowed up, the whole limb is now looking otherwise healthy. I have a defoliation planned for tomorrow so it's likely this one will just come off when the larger fan leaves are removed from higher up on the canopy. Water
