Paper towelled on 20/11. In 1 litre pots with 2cm tail on 22/11 1 Punch and the Zkittlez, tomorrow will put the 2nd Punch in it's pot. Light on 35% at 30 cm. OK aaaand here we go guys. Some beautiful first leaves popped out. The Zkittlez was first and then Punch 1 which were put in their pots at the same time. Punch 2 was put in it's pot 1 day later (23 November) aaaand it's already pushed out it's leaves but needs to turn upwards. It is pretty cold in there with them so I am going to keep them in 24 hours for 1 week. Not sure if I will switch them to 20/4 or keep them at 24/0. OK guys wish me luck on my first start to finish solo grow😍 any advice or opinions greatly appreciated 💚 I have added a diary of the 2 punches I adopted last 2 weeks of flower for comparison when I finish these beauts off.

OK guys here we go week 1 I'm seeing a definite deficiency here in Punch 2 with the purple stem. Punch 1 seems to be fine, maybe a bit droopy. Zkittlez didn't make it I suspected it was too cold for her, but I think it could have been mold. I have added a fan on the floor of the tent (the pots are raised about 25cm off the floor so the roots don't get too cold). The light has been adjusted to 30cm again as they grew a few cm and I have turned it up to 90%. I didn't add anything other than the old root system of the last plants and I am thinking the one with the purple stem has a mag/phosphorus deficiency and I have no idea how to treat it in little babies😭 Help guys any advice should I add organic waste to water to add them of leave them be a few weeks? 🙏

OK guys I transplanted these babies into bigger pots yesterday. Punch 2 is definitely much more droopy than punch 1 but punch 2 felt weaker when I took it out of its original pot so I am hoping it will perk up after a few days. I've lowered the light power from 100% to 75% and have upped day temps to 20. I had to transplant the babies as the soil they were in was waaaay out of pH range and I decided it would be better to put them into 11 liter pots. OK guys I will add more pics in a few days when they hopefully perk up after transplanting. Fingers crossed 🤞

Ok now my girlies have picked up. Punch 1 seemed to be stronger to begin with, but she had the most trouble picking up after the transplant. She only starting lifting her leaves 1-2 days ago. Punch 2 is actually doing much better than Punch 1,even though she sprouted 1 day later and seemed to be the weaker of the two. She picked up 3 days after transplant (I had to prop her because she had nearly fallen over. I am really happy with how they are sprouting so far even though Punch 1 seems to be showing some kinds of deficiency. I am sceptical to add any nutrients as I am using automix 2.0 and it is supposed to be packed with them anyway. Light is at 35-40% somewhere and they seem to have enough. Humidity levels do go up and down a bit drastically however. When I close them they go up to 80-90%, whereas in the day they can go down to 45%. Mostly I do manage to keep them at 60-70% but it's just the occasional time where they go up or down for a short period.

OK guys I was away for a week so this week we are at the end of week 4 veg instead of the beginning of the week. There was a boom growth period and the taller Punch 2 has bent herself to avoid getting burnt as she is 30cm tall, the other Punch 1 is 20cm tall and seems fine. I have just given them a watering with calmag and just a drop of PK ratio 13-14. I have also ramped up the lamp to 100% and put it at 55cm from the top of the plants. I'm hoping they will soon switch to flower guys fingers crossed. 🎄

OK guys I'm starting at the beginning of week 5 so this one is only a few days after my last addition the the diary. I noticed the very first pistils so now we are in week 1 of flower. Punch 2 has dark greeb, curled down edges, maybe a nitrogen toxicity? I don't think I'm over watering, they didn't have water for 6 days when I noticed these symptoms. Punch 1 doesn't have the dark green edged fan leaves or the curling down, but there are some pale white spots and smudges at the ends of the fan leaves. Any ideas guys? I'm new to this so not 100% what is going on or how to fix. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys🎄

OK so I think I had a nute burn problem, this week they are on pure water and seem to be perking up a lot more now. Punch 2 has deffo put more on in buds, Punch 2 seems to be lagging idk. Anyway that's it for this week! I actually only have 2 more weeks to finish them off😭 I don't think I'm going to have enough time.

OK guys I had to move house and I couldn't take my ladies with me so a friend of mine is finishing them of with a LEC light with no tent🙈 They are a strong strain so they should be OK, here are some pics he sent me. Hopefully the stress won't set them back too far.
