🌱 Grow Diary - LCC Seed 3 - Day 12 🚀
📊 Observations & Growth Progress
The plant has shown remarkable development in the past two days. Comparing with Day 10, the leaf structure is more robust, and the internodal spacing is well-formed. The previous slight elongation has stabilized, and the stem is gaining thickness, a great indicator of strong root establishment.
✅ Growth Improvements:
• Leaf Expansion: Newer leaves are larger and better structured.
• Stem Thickening: The base is becoming stronger, which will support future weight.
• Internodal Definition: Nodes are spacing optimally, avoiding excessive stretch.
🔧 Adjustments & Next Steps
📌 PPFD Update: Currently at 500-520; next adjustment in two days to 550-570.
💧 Watering: Soil moisture test suggests watering will be done tomorrow to ensure a proper drying cycle.
🌱 Root Health: Introducing a light dose of BioBizz Haven + JuicyRoot to stimulate further root expansion.
☀️ Light Strategy: Keeping a consistent distance to maintain uniform growth and prevent stretching.
🚀 Lessons Learned
• Anticipating PPFD adjustments earlier has significantly reduced initial stretching.
• Perspective in photos is important for tracking progress properly.
• Maintaining a balanced moisture cycle is ensuring healthy root development.
🌿 The plant is progressing excellently and remains on track for vigorous vegetative growth! 🚀💚
🌱 LCC Seed 3: Day 10 - 18/02/2025 🚀

🌱 Seed 2: Week 5 - Day 34 - 19/02/2025 🚀
The plant is responding well to LST adjustments, showing strong lateral growth and an expanding canopy. 🌿💪
🔹 Sixth LST Session 🎯 – The main stem was adjusted further at a 45° angle, allowing the lower branches to develop more evenly. Additional support was applied to stabilize the structure. 🔄🌱
🔹 Pre-Flowering Signs 🔍🌸 – The plant continues to show early pistil formation, confirming that it is slowly transitioning to flowering. However, vegetative growth is still dominant, meaning there is room for more structural expansion.
🔹 Leaf Management 🍃 – Some large fan leaves were tucked, ensuring that lower nodes receive more light. No defoliation was performed to avoid unnecessary stress.
🔹 Environmental Control 💡 – Humidity was maintained at 58% 💧 to support vegetative growth while preventing excessive moisture buildup. Temperature remains steady at 24-27°C 🌡️.
🔹 Watering 💦 – Soil moisture was checked, and 300ml of water was applied today to ensure hydration without overwatering.
📏 Next Steps:
✔️ Monitor stretch closely as the plant nears full pre-flowering.
✔️ Continue LST adjustments to shape the canopy evenly.
✔️ Adjust nutrients gradually, reducing nitrogen slightly while introducing more phosphorus and potassium for the upcoming flowering phase.
🚀 The plant is looking strong, and the structure is well-balanced for optimal bud development! 🌿✨🔥

📸 Photo Perspectives - Seed 2: Week 5 - Day 34
1️⃣ Side View 🌿 – Displays the LST adjustments, showing how the plant’s structure is expanding horizontally, allowing for even light distribution. 🔄
2️⃣ Top View 🔍 – A clear perspective of the open canopy, with new growth sites evenly exposed to light, maximizing future bud potential.
🚀 Great progress! The training is working, and the plant is on track for a strong flowering phase! 🌱✨
🌱 Seed 2: Day 32 - 17/02/2025 🚀
The plant remains in the vegetative phase, with the goal of extending this stage to maximize growth before transitioning to flowering. 🌿💪
🔹 Ongoing LST 🎯 – The main branches were adjusted to a 45° angle to promote lateral expansion. This helps create a wider canopy and improves light distribution. The ties were repositioned to keep up with the lateral branch growth. 🔄🌞
🔹 Pre-flowering monitoring 🔍🌸 – Pistils are beginning to appear, indicating that the plant is approaching the transition. However, nutrition has been adjusted to prolong the vegetative stage for a few more days.
🔹 Nitrogen-focused nutrition 🥦 – Continued supplementation with Nitrogen (N) while avoiding an increase in Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) for now. This will help the plant keep growing before shifting to bud production.
🔹 Environmental control 💨 – Humidity is maintained at 58-60% to support vegetative growth and prevent early flowering induction. Temperature is monitored between 24-27°C 🌡️ to keep conditions optimal.
🔹 Next watering 💦 – The soil still holds moisture, so the next watering with 300ml is scheduled for tomorrow, ensuring the substrate dries properly before the next irrigation.
📏 Next steps:
✔️ Continue gentle LST and adjust ties daily.
✔️ Monitor flowering transition signs and adjust nutrition accordingly.
✔️ Maintain controlled humidity to prevent early flowering onset.
🚀 The strategy is working well! The plant is expanding its structure, and the focus now is to make the most of this final vegetative phase before flowering begins! 🌿✨🔥
🌱 Seed 2: Day 31 - 16/02/2025 🚀
The plant is showing strong lateral growth and a more structured canopy! 🌿💪 Today, the fifth LST session was performed, combined with leaf tucking 🍃, to maximize light exposure to the lower branches. The largest fan leaves were carefully repositioned 🔄, ensuring that new shoots get the best possible light 🌞.
A soil moisture test was conducted today 💦, confirming that the substrate is still holding moisture. The plant had a high moisture load due to a watering issue a few days ago ⚠️, so I am now waiting for the soil to dry completely before applying approximately 300ml of water 💧 at the next watering.
Humidity remains at 58% 💧 to balance both plants in different growth phases. Close monitoring of stretch 📏 continues as the plant approaches full pre-flowering! 🌸✨
🌱 Seed 2: Day 30 - 15/02/2025 🚀
Significant stretching observed, typical at the start of flowering 📏🌿. Adjustments were made to light intensity and height 💡⬆️ to control excessive elongation and ensure balanced growth.
A fourth LST session was performed today 🎯🌱, gently bending branches to encourage even canopy expansion and improve light distribution. Some fan leaves were repositioned 🔄🍃 to expose lower bud sites to more light.
Humidity levels are being monitored closely at 40-50% 💧 to prevent mold development and maintain an optimal flowering environment. The plant continues to show healthy leaf development, with vibrant green coloration 🌿✨ and a strong structure.
