The plant is experiencing explosive growth due to the significant rise in temperature.
Watering: All irrigations are now done with a mixture of fermented frass (anaerobic) from peanut beetles with green water, aquarium water, and an aerobic fermented solution of eggs and banana peels. I'm watering around 3 liters every 2 days.
Ambient Conditions: Daytime temperatures have risen significantly. Humidity remains quite dry, ranging from 40% to 50%.
Aroma: The plant is developing a strong, pungent cannabis scent, though it's not particularly fruity or citrusy—more of a classic ganja aroma.
Training: The plant has adapted very well to LST, growing almost horizontally close to the soil, and is producing nearly a new set of leaves every day. It currently has 6 main colas (hoping for 8).
Flowering: No signs of flowering yet. Since I'm counting from when the seed was first soaked, I expect another 2 weeks before flowering begins. This will allow the lateral branches to develop well.
pH and EC: I haven't been monitoring pH or EC closely, as I've used this substrate for years, and pH has consistently been around 6.5 in all my tests. So far, it hasn't been a concern.
Fertilization: Reapplied a good dose of bokashi this week.
Pest Control: Continued Beauveria applications every 4 days. Noticed a few small black flies on the leaves, but they appear to be dying off without reproducing in the substrate or plant. They do bite before dying, though.
Health: Visually, the plant looks healthy despite a small mark on the edge of one leaf. I will keep observing for any further symptoms.
Sunlight: We are currently getting 11 hours of sunlight, and the plant is thriving under these conditions.
Ambient Conditions: At the end of the week, temperature has dropped significantly, ranging from 5ºC at night to 15ºC during the day, with humidity remaining low.
Yeah I think your correct about some stress to early on has stunted the growth.. that's learning mate and the only way unfortunately we have all done it from time to time. Don't over water or over feed and see how she goes, apart from small she looks ok.
@Green_claws, Thanks, groomie! I appreciate your opinion.
Although I've been growing since 2007, this is my first time with autos, this is my first indeed. I thought they would be similar and as hardy as photoperiodic ones, but in practice, they are quite different.
She is always hungry, and is well fed. Anyway, this is the last week I'll be applying any type of nitrogen. Now the weather will also be stable, above 15 degrees for a while, which will also be good.
I also have a batch of photos (#f1 that I took last season) and they didn't even mind the intense cold, well adapted to the crazy weather here.
Hey! Nice to see your work! Looks amazing.
Keep on doing ur thing, good luck with all future grows!
