Matanuska Thunder

Day 39 - October 12, 2023 So it's been about a week and a half since I transplanted her and let her chill out under my low-wattage LED tube germination light. It took her a while but she's finally responding to food. I am seeing new green growth, as well as leaf tip burn telling me she didn't like being so close to even the germination light. Today, we transplanted her again, from a 1L pot into a 2gal pot. We also moved her back into the veg space, with 2x150W LED fixtures hanging overhead, with a DLI around 24. My hope is that now that her roots seem to be propagated, she will flourish above ground now with the new feet room and additional PAR light. Do you know what my favorite thing about growing is? It's not really the end result. That's expected and easy to acquire once you get organized and dialed in. What I like the most, is taking care of plants. Particularly interesting to me, and I actually find it very therapeutic, is taking care of sick plants, and trying to rejuvenate them. I've had a lot of practice doing this with all sorts of plant varieties, cannabis especially, and while it doesn't always work out, it is still worth all the extra effort. Does growing make you happy, or does it seem like work to you? Plants are wonderful. Take care of a plant and it might take care of you. Day 42 - October 15, 2023 I fim'd her yesterday. Let's see if we can get her to grow out more. We'll transplant that long stem if we have to.
