Weather is foreshadowed to be more unpredictable than in previous years, causing decisions to be motivated based on dodging and withstanding the weather rather than maximizing potential yield.
Bad weather and worse, apprehensive tendencies around watering, led to a stunting period at the end of this plants seedling phase. The shell has made a temporary return but with the next week comes an arguably unnecessary stage of the grow.
Small heat waves begin occurring intermittently throughout summer, as well as storms aiding in keeping her hydrated. The biggest transition is about to begin.
So after the reporting the time came to decide how to train her. I had read that purple punch phenotypes tend to favor dense foliage, so this as well as the ever present wind led me to run her parallel to the ground about 4 inches above it for the first little bit of true vegetative stage. The results were interesting.
