Hello!! This is my first ever attempt at growing this amazing plant and making a diary here. I expect to fail a lot and to learn plenty on this journey, but I hope to make it to the end and with hopefully a nice little harvest as a reward at the end. The strain I'm growing is Lemon Pie Auto from 2fast4buds and I'm growing it in Germany, where is has been partially legalized since April 1st.
Hope you guys will enjoy the journey with me and if you got any advice, or just wanna share at which moment you facepalmed the hardest, do share it with me 😜😁 So lets go
04.04.24 - put seed in paper towels
06.04.24 - she grew a decently sized root so decided to plant seed in rooter with sphagnum moss, might have overwatered the medium though
07.04.24 - she sprouted but looked yellow and weird
08.04.24 - she started to grow fast and had a healthy green color but she started to stretch too much and her stem was weak (or maybe I was just panicking and overthinking over her👽)
10.04.24 - after her stem growing more but the leaves not growing as much I decided to transplant her to her final pot, backfill her with dirt to compensate for the weak stem, and get her used to her new home as well as putting the lights to 24hr at 40% ~30cm distance (up until now 18hr-6hr)
-she also developed a hole in one of the baby leaves, perhaps burn due to a droplet + light? I'm not sure, the baby leaf partially fell off the following day
11.04.24 - removed the dome
12.04.24 - i think she started to look a little bit too yellow/light green. decided to feed her nutrients for the first time. using plagron power roots 1ml/l, gave her about 250ml total feed
13.04.24 - she still seems a little yellowish, decided to put the light a bit higher at ~40cm, didn't feed today
14.04.24 - fed her approx 500ml this morning with power roots 1ml/1l, she seems to be doing good and her leaves are growing nicely. unfortunately 2 brown spots, possibly from light damage
15.04.24 - consistently feeding her 500ml every morning with plagron power roots nutes. The brown spots are more noticeable every day even with light adjustment
16.4.24 - keeping up the feed, but increased it up by ~100-200ml, 3rd set of leaves are coming out, brown spots getting worse but the other ones look healthy so i dont think any other light adjustments are needed right now
17.4.24 - I realize just how badly I scarred her first leaves, but its proof how resilient she is :) she keeps growing and her color improved
18.4.24 - The growth is really ramping up and since the time I go to work until I am back, she already grows another set of leaves
19.4.24 - Got an oscillating fan to fan from the bottom, helping me to stabilize humidity a little bit. Since watering her every day, keeping up the humidity hasn't been so much of a chore anymore.
20.4.24 - This is the last day of the power roots feed and from the next watering I will start feeding her BioBizz Bio-Grow. She looks beautiful and healthy, though I can see some leaves are starting to get covered, so some LST is in order soon
22.4.24 - First feed with BioBizz Grow
23.4.24 - Started LST. First attempt ever. Felt like I was abusing her
24.4.24 - Keeping up biobizz feed, decided to defoliate her a little bit
25.4.24 - I think I accidentally hurt her a little bit after I left the ventilator on too strong pointing directly at her
26.4.24 - forgot pic :D
27.4.24 - She's so bushy. I am wondering if I should defoliate her again before it gets completely out of hand.
28.4.24 - didn't water her, noticed some green growths on the perlite and she looked dark green still
29.4.24 - watered her with 800ml/1ml biobizz grow mix, did light defoliation and re-did the LST. I might have cut off a branch I wasn't supposed to Also let her sit outside for about an hour with the nice weather and breeze, was nice seeing her in the nature outside of the grow tent.
30.4.24 - just letting her growing
01.5.24 - more of the same
02.05.24 - doing small adjustment every day, stopped defoliating her for now. adjusted lighting to 18/6 to keep temps down as we are having hotter weather these last few days in germany
03.05.24 - nothing special just minor lst adjustment and leaf tucking. her stem really grew a lot and became chunky and the smell is a bit stronger.
04.05.24 - lovely colors. I think she might be entering her preflower stage
09.05.24 - she is definitely in pre-flower now
10.05.24 - no pic here, nothing special happened
11.05.24 - realized she had yellow discoloration on lower leaves. I think its nitrogen deficiency. Decided to trim her and to start feeding bloom together with veg nutes
12.05.24 - she seems to be recovering nicely, she has a slight nute burn on the upper most tips. I think a bee landed on her while she was outside and her pistils turned a little bit brown
