1st Cutting Tryout from 1st Grow

@kohlrabi, No , I can not check PH , but it should be OK, its the same Soil as on the other plants, no fertilizer added, water also the same it should be a bit over 6.5 in PH I think. I do not know whats wrong its weird , she is growing but also looks like she is dying. I can only guess , maybe its the water roots do not get a long in soil plus the hot sun, but i can be wrong. Today she looks even much more worse, picture coming soon.

@kohlrabi, Ja glaube auch, am Anfang dachte ich halt die lebt nicht mehr lange 😭 weil sie so schlimm aussah , aber sie ist noch immer saftig und hat genug , so grade.😅 Darum lass ich sie jetzt erstmal mit was weniger Wasser und kein extrems Licht sich weiter erholen.😇

@kohlrabi, Yes I hope it will grow, thanks Kohlrabi Its my 1st Cutting try of Cannabis , I only know how to do Bonsai Cuttings. Ibaraki is a City Prefecture Region North of Tokyo in Japan , where the Soil is coming from. And Akadama ? Due to volcanic activity, Japan enjoys rich volcanic resources. After volcanic eruptions, volcanic rocks and pumice accumulate near the volcano. Several horticultural products based on these materials have been developed in Japan, two of which are the Akadama and kanuma soils. Akadama is a naturally occurring, granular clay-like mineral used as soil for bonsai trees and other container-grown plants. It is surface-mined, immediately sifted and bagged, and supplied in various grades; the deeper-mined grade are somewhat harder and more useful in horticulture than the more softer, shallow-mined grades. Akadama may also act as one component of growing medium when combined with other elements such as sand, composted bark, peat, or crushed lava. The color darkens when moist which can help the grower determine when to water a tree. Also that it is Grainy Soil , the roots getting more Oxygen, what is good for roots and the plant and the roots will not rot so fast. It does cost more , but when its not contaminated you can use it again and you can use it for a very long time , a lot of soil you need to replace after a time because its dead or too much contaminated, but Akadama can stay as soil for some years. And as Top layer it helps also against fungus gnats (Trauermücken) Components include silicon dioxide SiO2 42.7%, calcium oxide CaO 0.98%, magnesium oxide MgO 2.5%, manganese oxide MnO 0.15%, iron oxide Fe2O3 8.4%, and aluminium oxide Al2O3 25.1%. Akadama has a pH of 6.9 and conductivity of 0.052 ms/cm. Es ist zwar gebrannter Lehm, kann man aber nicht mit Blähton vergleichen und auch nicht mit Lavagestein was ganz anders ist aber Mineralien hat von Lavagestein, der einzige Nachteil hier ist, dass der PH-Wert eigentlich nicht "Optimal" für Cannabis ist, mal schauen, hab ja auch nicht zu viel verwendet. Bei Cannabis liegt der PH Wert optimal bei 6 und Akadama hat 6,9. Es gibt welche die sagen, dass es PH Neutral wäre, aber das glaube ich nicht. Es reagiert beim ersten Mal auch extrem mit Wasser und setzt Gase frei, was das genau ist weiß ich aber nicht, denke CO2 und Sickstoff.

@IslandTerps, Nice, OK I got no powder, Its my 1st try of a cannanis cutting , so it was a lot of days in water start getting bleached then I put it into soil, but made the mistake to set it in a very hot sun was burning and I think I did a bit too much water. Your cutting do stay green ? Or do they bleach too after a while and and revive ?

@ErikoHashimoto, yes they mostly stay green

@Regenwurm, Yea, I think shes Dead 😭

@IslandTerps, Yes I think it is 😍 It was super flat and now there is Top going up 😁👆

@Med_in_Tropic, Yes Thanks 😍 The plant is bleaching, but does not look and feel dry at all 😏 I did re-check the soil is a bit wet, will let it dry a bit 😅 There was no fertilzer and cutting stand a long time in water, over a week or so 😳 yea there might be missing minerals come to stress now by the re-potting I will keep the cutting like this and will see if its getting better , with a bit less water lets see , ..... if not, i need to do a bit minerals. 👍

@Med_in_Tropic, She did die 😭 I will try to get fatter branches next time Thanks 👍
