Currently no feeding schedule. Water only.
Mixed weather this week. Hot days, +30°C, followed by rain. Plant has been left in the elements. Small pot currently pretty soaked, got left in the rain. Maybe I should have moved it.
This week the plant was transplanted from a 1 litre pot to a 2 gal fabric grow bag. The soil medium was a home mix of equal parts - perlite, coco peat, worm castings and compost. The worm castings were source from my own worm farm which I started a few months ago. And the compost from my compost bin which consist mostly of lawn clippings and veggie scraps which was well broken down as it has been sitting for over a year.
Plant didn't seem to experience much transplant shock. But I still allowed it a day in a semi shaded/sunny spot before moving it to it's now permanent location where it gets direct sunlight for the majority of the day.
Over the last week she has started to show early signs of flowering and has stretched to over double in height. Grew from approx. 12-15cm to 30cm.
Currently no nutrient feeding schedule - water only. Just watering as needed when surface soil dries.
Shown substantial grow over the last week. Doubled in height. Thinking I should have used a bigger grow bag as it's only in a 2 gal bag but it's already flowering so I won't transplant now.
Starting to see a lot more pistil and calyx development.
Gave the plant it's first feeding at the beginning of the week with a general plant and vegetable fertilizer. Noticed a richer green in the leaves since being fed.
Continued to grow in height an additional 10cm over the last week. Feed the plant a granule phosphorus fertilizer. Slow release but low maintenance. Started to get even more flower development.
Noticed some insect damage. Under closer examination I found the culprit.
Won't use a pesticide cos plants in flowering. Just gonna have to manage pest control manually.
Long maintenance week, didn't do much, just watered it (tap water)when needed. Mother nature does the majority of the caregiving.
Didn't grow much in height so stretch has stopped and now the growth is focused on flower development.
Bud starting to fill and get a bit denser. Had some wet weather this week so I've been moving her to shelter to avoid the buds from getting wet. Water only
Buds starting to fatten up with increased resin production. The weight of the main cola is causing the plant to lean. Lower fan leaves are starting to yellow, some have even been removed. Still watering only rain water.
Enjoyed the experience growing this plants. Low maintenance, just basically water as needed. Buds were very easy to manicure and cosmetically visually appealing but lacked density and were quite airey and long.
