Jarooooon We've embarked on the exciting journey of growing my own cannabis plants from seeds using the direct soil method in 1L pots. Planted the seeds in a well-prepared potting mix. Made sure to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged during this early stage. During the first initial days, you'll want to maintain a consistent moisture level in the soil to ensure that the seeds have the right conditions for germination. Kept the pots in a warm environment to encourage the seeds to sprout (around 22 celsius in my case). Patience is key during this period. Germination took about 3 days, from that moment I could see small, delicate sprouts emerging from the soil. Continued to provide a stable environment with proper moisture and humidity. As the week progressed, the cannabis seedlings became more visible and they developped their first set of true leaves. At this point, I introduced them to a gentle light source, my Spider-Farmer SE3000 grow light, to initiate photosynthesis and promote healthy growth. I was careful not to expose them to intense light too soon, as they are still fragile. Therefore I dimmed my lights to around 30% at around a distance of 60cm.

Jarooooon It's putting in some growth. Lights are still dimmed to around 35% which will slowly be increased as the plant grows. The small plants are slowing starting to use the nutrients from the soil. The soil consists largely of peat litter, garden peat, lime and wood fibers and serves as a good basis.

Jarooooon The plant is thriving beautifully, with the exception of one minor development. It has naturally topped itself, resulting in two emerging growth points. Additionally, the roots are beginning to protrude from the bottom of the pot, indicating healthy growth. However, it is not yet at a stage where it is ready for transplantation.

Jarooooon Very easy week, plants are still growing nicely. I haven't fed them any nutrients yet, still a lot left in the soil. Light was set to 60% which means it now uses around 200 watts.

Jarooooon During this week, a significant milestone was reached as I successfully transplanted the plants into their permanent residence—a spacious 25-liter fabric pot. The carefully crafted soil blend comprises approximately 10% straw, 60% living soil, and around 30% organic compost. This tailored mix is designed to provide the optimal nutrients and environment for the plants' sustained growth. Looking ahead, my focus will be on closely monitoring the plants in their new home. As the roots settle into the rich soil composition, I anticipate continued vigorous growth. Routine observations and potential adjustments will be key to ensuring the plants thrive in their final habitat. Stay tuned for further updates in the weekly diary as we embark on this exciting phase of cultivation.

Jarooooon This week has been relatively easy, with the plants rapid growth. I haven't introduced any additional nutrients as there remains a supply in the soil. To promote optimal light distribution, I've performed a light defoliation and implemented some topping. These measures ensure that each growth point receives sufficient light, contributing to the overall health and vitality of the plants. Looking ahead, I'll continue to monitor their progress and make adjustments as needed to support their thriving development.

Jarooooon This week marks the initiation of the flowering stage for my plants. The light cycle has been adjusted to 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness, signaling the beginning of the bloom phase. The plants are gradually entering the stretch phase, with the initial signs of pre-flowering becoming apparent. While I have refrained from providing additional nutrients thus far, I have plans to introduce them in the coming weeks. Additionally, I've slightly elevated the lights and increased their intensity to approximately 80%. This adjustment aims to optimize conditions for the flowering process and promote healthy growth. Notably, I've added a scrog net to control the canopy, providing effective training. Furthermore, I've undertaken light defoliation, and there are plans for lollypopping in the near future.

Jarooooon Noticed some yellowing of the leaves this week. This meant that I had start feeding the girls. Had some Plagron laying around which does the job, mixed 7 ml to 2 liters of water. Plants are reacting positive.
