So, I’m calling this week 2, but to be honest, I totally forgot when I germinated the seeds, so it’s a bit of a guess. Anyway, after repotting her into the 12L pot, I accidentally overwatered, and her growth took a hit because of it. Unfortunately, no pics were taken before things went downhill.
Aside from that, she’s recovered well. Nothing too crazy, just trying to be more careful with the watering moving forward.
This week has shown a lot of improvement. The plant is growing really well and progressing nicely. I did some low-stress training and topped her twice, which has resulted (hopefully) in four main stems. She’s bounced back well from last week’s overwatering issue, and overall, I’m happy with how she’s coming along.
Things got a little crazy this / last week. I was triggered hard by the fact that there wasn't enough dirt in the pot, so I went ahead and dug her out to add more. Looking back, that was definitely a dumb move. After a few hours, she was drooping badly, and the stem even felt squishy. I really thought that was it. But after a day, she bounced back, and the stem firmed up again.
Some of the leaves turned yellow or dried up, so I cut them off. Now, she’s looking pretty healthy again, especially with the new leaves—they’re looking super healthy. The topping also seems to have worked well, as the new growth looks strong. There are still a few leaves from the digging incident that don’t look great. I’m not sure if I should cut those off, but I also don’t want to stress her out more than I already have.

Day 33 update:
She’s grown a lot since last week. After all the stress, I wasn’t sure how things would go, but she’s doing pretty well now. New leaves are coming in, and she’s looking fuller. It’s kind of surprising how quickly she bounced back and started growing again. Still no signs of flowering, but with this growth, I’m feeling a bit more hopeful.
She’s growing fast and finally started blooming this week. I decided to thin her out pretty aggressively and cut off some of the smaller branches. Hopefully, this gives the main stems more room to focus on flowering. She’s still looking solid, so I think the trimming was the right move. Excited to see how she progresses from here.
Day 44:
She’s still growing really well, and I’m excited to see how she will turn out. I’ve been regularly thinning her out to keep things manageable, and so far, everything is looking great.

Day 49:
I'm not sure what happened, but she’s changed from a deep, saturated green to a much brighter, almost yellow-green. The edges of the leaves are turning purple, and I’m not sure if that’s a bad sign, but I’ve read that bright discoloration can result from lights being too close or from a deficiency. She stretched a lot, and the distance between the lamp and the top bud was only 10-15 cm, so that could be the issue. I’ve adjusted the light distance and will keep an eye on how things develop.
Day 50:
After just one day, she’s already looking much greener and more saturated, which is a good sign. I added some fertilizer containing all the basic nutrients, and it seems like that was the issue after all, not the light. I’ve also read that the purple outline on the leaves could be due to lower temperatures, which might be revealing her genetics.

Day 54:
She’s looking really great. Still stretching but noticeably thinner this time around. I’m surprised by how different she looks compared to my last grow, likely due to the topping and aggressive thinning I did earlier. It seems those techniques have made a big impact.
She stretched quite a bit, so I might need to upgrade my light source eventually, but it's still doing the job for now. Overall, it's looking great. She was a bit too tall, though, so I had to move the activated carbon filter outside the tent.
I ended up harvesting her on Day 89. The trichomes weren’t quite perfect yet, but with the humidity issues in my tent, I figured it wasn’t worth the risk. I decided to go for it and aim for a more uplifting, heady high. I’m really happy with how it turned out.
She also smells like fresh orange juice, I am really excited for the taste test
