This week I first removed two leafs that blocked the lower two nodes. After that I made sure that none of the nodes get shaded by the top with some tape. Don't think that does much but why not try it? While watering I noticed that the soil near the edge of the pot was too dry to take in any water so I watered the pot with a few liters of water. Not ideal but with the temperatures we have atm, it wasnt a problem. On Day 13 I topped the plant and added the first two stakes after another day of growth. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Set up cost (fixed costs) -Lamp: 40€ -Timer: 3,5€ -Pot: 4€ -Total fixed costs: 47,5€ Given 5 years (or 15 grows) usage time translates to around 3,17€ per grow in materials. Variable costs: -Seed: 5€ -Soil: 6€ -Fertilizer: 3,50€ -Power (100 days 20h/day): ~28,8€ (exact figure after harvest) -Total variable costs: ~43,3€ -Total costs per grow: ~46,47€

paretostarted grow question a day ago
Has anyone had the problem of a split main stem after topping and LST? I wonder what happens to the part I had to tie together when the stem grows thicker... does it restrict the plant or will the line just grow into the stem?

It will be just fine............if no branches have gone droopy or wilted as yet, things will be ok. The slight split will not affect growth rates, yields or potency in any sort of negative way. You can safely remove the string/twine/line, it is not helping or doing anything positive for the plant.

Good luck for the grow! Make a humidity dome out of bottom half of a bottle and keep it for upto 10 days. Your seedling would thank you!
