GandalfsDick Back to try again. I was pretty let down with the last plant being a herm, so I figured I would try again and just change up everything I did. I think I may have stressed out my first plant too much… I had three seeds originally, first one I tried was the middle sized and this one was the big girl (hopefully) 🤷‍♂️ wish me luck! Should I even grow the last seed if it’s tiny?

GandalfsDick Saw a bunch of springtails so I used some diatomaceous earth. Don’t know if I used enough but I don’t see em anymore. Just letting her grow for now.

GandalfsDick Nothing done except some watering. Had to support the stem because it was a little floppy, but it holds itself up now. May top in a week, but I’m not rushing it.

GandalfsDick No problems this week. I top dressed with more fox farm soil and covered with straw. Watered a few times this week and I’m thinking of topping right at the 6th node. No real reason for doing it at that node, I just don’t want to cut off too much growth. Is there a right or wrong node to top at? Someone let me know, thanks!

GandalfsDick Wanted to throw these pictures up early. Topped on 1 October and watered with recharge. Going to let recoup and do its thing for a while. I let it recover 2 days and turned the light to 70%. Waited three more days and turned the light to 80. I will let it veg here until flower.

GandalfsDick Pretty big week! Watered and fertilized with 4-4-4. Did some defoliation and LST to get an even canopy, and I set up the trellis. I’m going to flip the light tomorrow!

GandalfsDick Explosive growth this week. Plant doubled in size pretty much. All that happened this week was the light flip to 12/12, and a water with recharge. I’ve been letting it dry back for 5 days since I over watered a bit. I’m going to water today and drop the trellis. I’ve noticed this plants nodes are coming out asymmetrically which is kind of cool too. So far it looks like it’s showing signs of being a female but I’ll keep my eyes out of course.

GandalfsDick Did another feed 1/4 cup of dr earth 4-4-4 and a recharge watering. Canopy is growing nice and evenly. I’m going to lollipop next week I think. Should I do it slowly over the next week? I’m worried about stressing this plant and herming again. Thanks for any tips.
