Day 21: Start of a new week. The plant is steadily growing, but some of its first leafs had some yellowing, but the new top growth is looking fine. Day 22: I think I made a mistake to make too little N available for the seedling where its initial roots are. I have micro dosed it with some home made JADAM JLF at 1:100 ratio. The JLF is made of purslane, malva and moringa pods. I hope it will recover the loss of the lower leafs. Day 27: I see first signs of flowering. I made mistakes in this first grow as I messed up the crucial veg stage of this autoflower. I'm learning a lot and seeing the grow through till the end. You only learn by doing. My Homebox Q60 just arrived with a 240W LED lamp and this way I can extend the amount of light exposure and dry the flowers in the end.

Day 28: First signs of flowering. My grow tent and light came too late for this one, but learning a lot on how this works. Despite all this, the 20hrs light schedule does help with faster growth. My next DC Cure grow will probably be much better than my first grow. Day 31: Some of the leaf tips are turning brown.

The grow wasn't a good one, but I am to blame. The second try is already in progress as I write this. During the last weeks the lady became very smelly, like citrus. I dry trimmed her and dried her for ~10 days and put her in the curing jar with a humidity meter.
