Growing medium is Bio365 Biococo with 30% perlite, Gaia Green Worm Castings, Gaia All Purpose 4-4-4, Gaia Power Bloom, and a touch of Mycos. Winter weather has created temperature challenges but every is going along.

Apple Fritter is showing signs of early stage Leaf Miners. I treated with a spritz of Neem Oil and Dr Bronners Mint Castor Soap. No insects of any sort on sticky traps but I being preventative. I have friends in Michigan that had insect issues with Bio365 in the past. Could have been how it was stored but better safe than sorry and I like the ingredient statement on this Biococo product so here we are! I will begin some LST as soon as I see a bit more growth, not there yet.

I may have over watered recently or perhaps have a potassium deficiency or both! Cause/effects?! I may have not presaturated my substrate appropriately in the beginning. This is my first run with Biococo and this may have made this soil a bit hydrophobic. Wondering if I slightly stunted the girls since they flowered quickly. Not to early but i am still waiting for a greater stretch. Saw some early stage yellowing on the bottom older leaves. I have been doing half doses of cal-mag when watering. Lack of run off could have built up salts but merely over analyzing! I am going to relax and ride it out. Trying to stop myself from doing too much tinkering.

Did some light pruning and kick up the power bloom in the last top dress. Seeing some deficiencies and just riding it out.

Some Plants flower earlier than others. One way you can control this to an extent is by pot size and shape. Once the roots hit what it deems the end, the plant will then go into flowering and use resources elsewhere. Once plants go into flower, cut back on Nitrogen, and increase on P and K. Hope your plant turns out great. It will stretch quite a bit.
