First outdoor, low maintenance grow

BuddingPupil Located in Central/Northern EU. So far it has lasted and continued to grow in a cold/wet summer. Used paper towel method on four seeds. The one you see germinated successfully. Two others germinated successfully but did not grow upon planting. Last never made it out of its case. So I am 1/4 on RQS NL Auto. Seems a bit stunted in growth, which I assume is due to harsher weather so far this summer in the area, but hoping this one makes it to harvest.

BuddingPupil At first, I thought the flowers were going to be popcorn buds, but lo and behold they are in fact growing!

BuddingPupil Buds continue to swell, nothing else to note

BuddingPupil Have stopped feeding nutrients and a good amount of rain came in throughout the week for a natural flush. Buds continue to mature as more pistils turn brown. From the seeds datasheet it says it is ready to harvest between 10-12 weeks after sporting and we are in week 11! Will determine when to harvest based on pistils.

BuddingPupil Noticed seeds, prob found about a handful so I believe it hermied in late bloom :( Decided to chop as there are two others near by and wanted to minimize risk of pollination. Will see how much is useable and prioritize edibles with this batch.
