She's a slow grower so far and has some mutation of twisted leaves, but it finally looks like she's ready to take off. She's been requiring more water recently.

She does still have some mutation but she has grown a thick stem and tight inter-nodes. She's quadrupled in size over this last week. She's absolutely beautiful. I will be topping her after another node or two.

I noticed brown spots on the lower foliage and some yellowing around the tips of the leaves. I didn't heavily amend this soil. I went ahead and did a half strength batch of Advanced Nutrients-Grow, Micro, Bloom to see if that would help. She still growing vigorously and has super tight inter-nodal stacking. I'll be transplanting her to a bigger pot but I want to cure this deficiency first as to not add extra stress.

I cut off her big leaves to allow light penetration to the inner nodes and I used steaks to pin down the bottom four branches and bring them out to the light. Roots are coming out of the bottom so I'm going to transplant her to a bigger pot.

She exploded in growth. I started to low stress train and she responded beautifully. Recently I went to a new local grow shop and I asked some advice and he told me to lower my pH. After I lower my pH I got this burn all over my plant. I'm working on raising the ph and getting her back to normal but she's still very healthy. Since last week I've transplanted her into a 3 gallon bucket. Once we get back to health we're going to clone a couple branches, continue low stress training and do a defoliation.

Recently we had a grow store open up in town. I went in and talked to the guy and he suggested that I lower my pH. I should not have listened because I nutrient locked my plant and burned her really bad. I raised my pH back up to 6.8 and she's getting back to normal everyday. I took off most of the bad leaves and continued my low stress training. Just two days ago, 11/24/23, I topped each top so when they sprout, I should be left with 20 new tops

Had a very busy couple of weeks and didn't get many pictures. She's going through another cycle of this nutrient lockout/burn situation. She's slowly getting back to normal.

She grew bushy again so I did another light defoliation. I'm trying to keep up with cutting off the crisping leaves so we don't get mold problems. She's still a beauty
