🌱 After the seed arrived, I placed it in a container between two wet paper towels. 🌧️ Exactly 24 hours later, a root of 1-2 cm had sprouted! 😲 I was amazed by the speed and immediately planted it in the soil. 🌿 In just 2-3 days, I saw the seedling pop out! 🚀 Leave a comment if you like this journey! Let's share our experiences and grow together! 🌟👩‍🌾🌱

Week 1: Nothing extraordinary happened, but the plant is growing peacefully. 🌿 Overall, I like how it looks – such a pleasant color! 🌱💚 I've been watering it every other day with 100-150 ml of plain water, pH 6.5. 💧🌿

At the beginning of the week, I experimented a bit with the lamp distance, which might have added some stress. 🌞🌿 There wasn't much active growth initially, but towards the end of the week, it started picking up speed rapidly. 🚀 I realized it was time to start LST. I tried using a string at first, but it was quite inconvenient for me. I watered with about 0.5 liters each time. Up to day 10, I used no nutrients, but from day 10 onwards, I started giving 1/2 of the recommended dose of TERRA AQUATICA TriPart. 💧🌿 Peace and happy growing to everyone! ✌️🌱

Starting this week, I've been giving 0.7 liters of water with a pH of 6.5 and the full dose of nutrients. 💧🌿 I've also been pinning all the stems down to the ground with wire and trimming any leaves that obstruct new growth. The leaf development is very vigorous, so I'm not hesitating to prune anything that overshadows other leaves. ✂️🌱 Starting this week, I'm really loving how this strain is growing. 🌿💚 I've also added 3 ml of Yantarine (succinic acid) as a one-time boost. 💧✨

Veg is in full swing, and you can see significant development every day. 🌱💪 If I don't trim the leaves, it feels like I'm getting lost in a jungle! 🌿 I'm actively defoliating, but it's still not perfect – light doesn't penetrate to every shoot. I'm watering according to the instructions, 0.7 liters of water with a pH of 6.5. 💧📏 Each shoot is pinned down, and I'm trying to spread it out as much as possible. I'm absolutely thrilled with how it's growing! 🌟

I lost track of the days in the previous weeks, so I'm starting from Day 29 now. 🌿📅 The week started off poorly; the plants experienced stress and stopped growing for about 2 days. 😟 I couldn't figure out what caused the stress since I didn't do much, maybe it was a reaction to LST. This week, I didn't do anything special, just let them grow as they are. 🌱 I might have removed 2-4 leaves throughout the week. By the end of the week, the plant stretched significantly, adding about 10-15 cm since the beginning of the week. 🚀 There's one more week left before switching to flowering. I'll give FloraGro one last time at the end of this week and will transition to pre-flowering nutrients next week. 🌸 Overall, I plan to tie down all the branches around the edge of the pot. 🌿 The center is very dense, and I'm considering whether to do a significant defoliation in the center or not. 🤔

Due to the actions of the terrorist country Russia, there have been issues with electricity. I turned off the timer, so the light is on for about 2-3 hours off and 4 hours on. 🌑💡 The plant is generally reacting okay, but leaf development has slowed down. I decided to give it less stress and started giving more Tripart Bloom. 🌿 The growth is still normal for now. 💧🌸

Due to the actions of the terrorist country Russia, the plant is getting light from the lamps for 2 to 8 hours (mostly around 4-6 hours). 🌑💡 Opium is not reacting well; it has almost stopped growing. New branches are growing asymmetrically, and new leaves at the tops look droopy and wilted. The leaf tips have started curling severely. The plant is not happy. 😞🌿

Growers, what could be causing the leaves to curl under severely? I water with 0.7 to 1 liter of mineral water every 4-5 days, when I feel the soil is well dried out. Temperature is 23-27°C, humidity is 50-70%.

High temps and a bit too low humidity during and/or overdrying, aka you water a bit too late, when plants needed it few hours or so ago, 70cm box and you have 300W light, that can make damage 4sure. There is no Nitrogen toxicity here, people are colour blind if they say so. I would say your plants are a bit pale even, would raise N part 10-20% if i was you. Still nothing major , but watering should be more frequent and with run off, collect it always, dont let plants stand in it. 20 liters pots needs around 2.5-3.5 liters to saturate it completely. divide total amount into 4-5 even parts, give 5-10 min interval between puting those parts, as mentioned before - collect and throw out run off.
