The 3-gallon pot is probably responsible for the tiny fan leaves throughout. It probably doesn't seem like it in this week's image, but I think that the supercharged soil is causing a bit of toxicity at the shoot apex region, some lack of nitrogen in older fan leaves, and purpling of top branches leading to the apical meristem regions. The plant has to be defoliated, but I have not applied water this week. CBDutch Treat is responding as expected to adversity.
Being that the soil is supercharged, and that we are pushing this phenotype to its limits, the tds being applied is low. The plant has done some growing since last week, and after establishing a bit of structural stability, the previously noted signs of hunger are finally going away with older leaves on prune day. Going forward, we will keep an eye on the veins of the margins on our newer leaves, which seem to be lightening up a bit.
I have to take back one assertion. The plant did not become less hungry after being taken out of the way of the oscillating fan. Goven the new development, I predict that my phenotype is going to be a really hungry one.
Although the seed has sprouted, it will be in week two of the seedling stage tomorrow, 06/21/2023. Return at that time for another update on this thread, as I consider the seedling stage part of the organism's germination life cycle, and not vegetation. Shout-out to the strain's breeder, Crop King Seeds.

Week 2 of the seedling stage continues, and the plant is doing well, visit my page next week and I will add an image of the plant in its first official week of vegetation. Performed routine maintenance, foliar sprayed the seedling's soil medium with water pH'd at 5.0, fed 80mL of water with the same pH level, the EC was about 145. The pot sits in an environment supported by an oscillating fan, ventilation system, and fresh air. The plant's light cycle is currently 18/06. The tent's humidity was marked at 60rh and the temperature at about 70 degrees F.
Wow buddy!! super nice buds
What an amazing grow so far - good job and well done 🤝
Happy Growing & cant wait for your upcoming weeks 🌱
Cheers, Bud Boutique 👩🌾
@BudBoutique, thanks, one thing that is new if you have been able to follow through the weeks, is that the plant is ripening, its week 3 of flower, day 18. My thought is that maybe the stressors pressed on it earlier were too much. It will be interesting to see how it responds, my prediction is that it won't last all 60 days.
