first week is over and starting to see some leaves. Can't get to it over the weekends so probably should have added more water on Friday.

bit worried i didn't get to water it yesterday and only give it about 300 ml on Friday, might be nothing but i think i see a small white spot on one of the leafs and i think it all look s a bit yellow compared to a few days a go. Could just be nervous with my first grow lol. I have watered and will keep an eye Asked a question about why my leaves are yellowing and i saw a little brown dot. I have ordered some cal-mag and should get it next week so hopefully this will help. Soil has perlite mixed in and when i water it seems to drain pretty well and the soil feels damp under the surface but not wet. I have also moved the light further away so fingers crossed. will keep an eye on it over the next 2 weeks and hopefully it comes good :) Day 11 - starting to think this probably won't recover :( the soil was oil potting soil and have a sneaky suspicion this could be the problem. will hold off until next week once I get the cal-mag and see if it has any effect. if no real improvement I may germinate a new seed buy some new soil and start over again. I also have a heating tube coming to try and help with temperature in the tent as it is generally 20 degrees or below this last week. day 12, cal-mag came today so i have watered with 400ml, plenty of run off. fingers crossed i will see some improvments over the weekend.

new week did a small bit of LST. Not sure if things are imrproving with the calmag but i am seeing more growth but still little brown patched on the leaves but ill stick at it and see how it all goes. I am wondering if i should remove any of the leaves with the brown patches etc but tempted to just let it grow and see where it ends up

I have also lowered the light a bit, increased the nutrients to 2ml per 1000ml and watered about 4/500ml. I have also changed the light schedule to 20 hours again. Also I don't know why I have done the LST the way I have, i saw something similar on YouTube and the stem was bending in that direction one day so I thought I would give it a go. It might not have been the smartest move on my first grow but who knows, we will see. I am thinking about getting Advanced Nutrients BigBud and was wondering if anyone thinks it is worth it or to stick with what I am using the whole way through before flush?

Without really knowing i think its starting to look pretty good, few mistakes with the way the stem is bent.

had big bud over the weekend, The soil was very dry when I came in on Monday so give it 2 litres hopefully last the next day or 2. Still very tempted to defoliate but unsure if it is the right time or what to remove. Decided to try and defoliate it a bit. see if it has any impact. still a bit worried about things like this what wiht it being my first plant
