Soaked the seed in water overnight, then plugged it directly into soil. Took 4 days to sprout. Soil is recycled with a bunch of worm castings mixed into the top layer. • Light @ 30cm @ 25% @ 18/6h • Temp 20c • RH 65%

Time to up nutrients Light:62.5%@40cm@18/6h - no climate control in this tent. More training needed before flipping as I want to fill the canopy with tops first and keep as low as possible.

She continues to stretch. Defoliated to open up the lowers to more light, and I think I'm gonna put another net in to evenly space the branches out and support them for when the flowers get heavy. Hopefully they will! Microbes once a week. I forget what the light distance was this week...

Light:77%@30cm@12/12 Microbes once per week - 1gram per 1.5L Making progress but looks a bit small for 6 weeks flowering. DLI is going up to 40 next week. I've been increasing by 2 every week. Maybe that's why the buds look a bit small or maybe temps could be a bit higher. 🤷‍♂️

DLI 40 at centre of canopy. Microbes once per week, 1g per 1.5 I'm thinking about one last defoliation and then letting her run. I feel like she's gonna need some extra weeks to finish up, for some reason she's a little behind.

Light: 68.75%@25cm@12/12h Microbes once per week 1g/1.5L Gave her a final hair cut and she looks way better positioned to kick out some better quality lower buds than she would have. 👍 I'm gonna give at least 10 weeks, but there's a chance I'll take her more judging by current development.

Nearly ready, lots of milky heads but still some clear. Very few amber even on sugar leaves. Plucked some dead and dying fan leaves away this week. Keeping an eye on trichomes from here on.
