2 Samen sind nach 4 Tagen gekommen, der dritte kam einen Tag später aus der Erde. Hab die Samen vorher in Wasser eingeweicht, aber nur ca 2 Stunden. Hatte eine Abdeckung über dem Topf, für die Feuchtigkeit, den ich nach dem Keimen noch einen Tag drauf gelassen habe.

Day3: I think #1 stretched a bit, so i lowered my lights and added an oscillating Fan to harden the stems. He blows above them so they dont get the direkt breeze. Since they sprouted i just sprayed the top soil with water because first i was scared of them drying off even though the soils was kinda moist deep down and second i didnt want the humidity to go below 50% . I know these aren´t sweet spots, but i think the Autos with their Ruderalis in it are a bit more resistant. So far they look OK to me. #1 seems a bit yellowish to me, but i dont panic yet. Day7: #2 and #3 both bend over, the stem did a 180° to the ground, i try to support them now, but don´t know if they´ll make it... i guess i underwatered. Also I adjusted the Light distance and put it much more closer. Fortunately #1 looks healthy. edit: Mr.Pipi is 99% sure the big Fan killed #2 & #3

I guess i got the Light too far away plus i didn´t wet them properly. Should have kept humidity dome til day 3 or 4. Also i used the big fan too early which helped the fast drying out. So for my first grow until now i lost 2 friends, but also learned some lessons.😅 At least #1 looks like she´s enjoying life.💪

MrPipistarted grow question a year ago
the Leafs hang a little bit and i watered 16hours ago, so i assume the light might be heavy, so i hang it a bit higher. Am i right?

Yes, you are on the right track. Growing Cannabis is based on these 3 main rules: - Not too much light - Not too much Nutrients - The right amount of water

Mr Pipi has tried some training. Wasn´t sure about her hight, some said asap and others said when plant is tall enough...i then, just did it, gently 😂 then i noticed that i didn´t really expose any new shoot-sites(?) and the big leaf didn´t hide any either, so other than in the videos i saw, i cut the two leafs left and right from the big one blocking the stem. cause under those were new little shoots. for now, im just waiting for more and more and more growth 😄

Mr. Pipi is back starting week 4. The Baby is looking good. She is really bushy. Boi oh Boi...Mr. Pipi did not find something to tie down, so he wait with LST... the earlier the better they said, but Mr. Pipi doesn´t care anymore...Let the plant do her thing, no stress, lets watch. But I noticed her shoots did get some stretch. Mr. Pipi likes that 😎. And Fun Fact: on one picture you can see a small plant. Its a chili which is 4 Days OLDER than #1 Watermelon. Thats why its called the WEED. Thanks for coming by Mr. Pipi <3 update: Mr. Pipi managed to train 2 branches on about day 23. on day 25-26 first pistols showed up. Mr. Pipi is excited.

The 5th Week has begun and Mr. Pipi is happy to see his Girl producing some hairs / pistils . She also got 3 yellow leafs, so something is bothering her. My guess is that the soil could be too rich, so im gonna keep giving just water and hope she gets better. update day 32: i gave liquid nutes cause more leafs started yellowing, I used half of the recommended dose.... that soil to rich thing is maybe the opposite...im not used to such hunger, coz i just grew Chili plants which seemed easier :D . Mr. Pipi is keeping observing.

Mr. Pipi is calm. Girl looks good. Think she is recovering. On one branch Mr. Pipi tried HST. Mr Pipi doesnt like those fabric pots without premade holes...not good for LST... Day35 Mr. Pipi added some dry nutrients as top dressing.

Mr. Pipi waits for pH tester to arrive... he doesn´t like that the plant isn´t full green. Too much yellow. Nutrients should be present, so Mr Pipi thinks it must be the pH. Also the Stems are very red/purple and even the leafs start to get purple spots. Mr Pipi has no fear, but he doesn´t want to shrink the yield either. Light got cranked up to 100% since ca. 5 Days. Let´s hope it´s the pH, then Mr.Pipi is prepared with some coffee-ground to topdress. But first step probably just correcting ph of the water. We´ll find out. update.pH seems to be 7 so i think thats ok. after defoliation the plant looks better, so my final guess about the yellowing is that the pot could be too small..

Mr Pipi loves seeing Frost. Starts to get shiny in the building. Smell was always like a fruity Whick Vaporub, but now the Menthol/Minty is not the most present and it gets more floral (kind of).

bulking up. Mr Pipi waits. Dont know if its slow, but I guess if its your first grow you want everything faster :D Keeping an Eye on the Trichomes, for now looks pretty clear. And Mr Pipi wants bigger Buds.

Mr. Pipi doesn´t know. Does she bulk up? Does she not? Does she slooooowly? Hm.. still not 2/3 are milky, and very rarely amber trichomes... so lets wait some additional days...but we are already there! Mr. Pipi can smell it ;) If you think you know it, feel free to let me know in the comments.

Day 84 she got chopped. Now I need her to dry and cure. So she gave me a decent amount, and although the Buds could be more dense, they are really aromatic and 'okay' sticky. Effect is super good for Mr. Pipi´s very first grow. So much happiness in those 3 Months. It was amazing. :)
