assert_eq I placed the seed in a wet paper towel for 24h until I saw a taproot of around 1cm in length.
I prepared a 15L fabric pot and filled it with BioBizz Light Mix to the brim. Because I plan on only using RO water, I added two scoops (around 20g-ish) of Green House Feeding Bio Bloom. Light Mix already contains some amount of nitrogen and most of my previous grows struggled with N tox in veg. This is mainly an experimental run to see if this works. I also added some Dynomyco to the potting hole and placed a humidity dome above the seed. I also watered the general area around the seed with 250ml.

assert_eq The seedling poked through the soil after roughly 1.5 days. I didn't water it immediately to allow the roots to do their thing. I count this as day 1.
On day 3 I watered with 350ml of water and on day 5 with another 450ml. The plant is growing pretty well but I think I left a water droplet on one of the leaves and caused it to get burned a bit. Shit happens, she's still going strong
To conclude the week, it doesn't seem like the soil is too hot and I hope the synthetic calmag will do its best to keep those nasty rust spots away.

assert_eq I watered with around 600ml of just RO + CalMag on day 8. So far the plant is growing quite well even though I was dealing with periods of very low humidity. Sometimes it would drop from close to 80% all the way down to below 40%.
I'm thinking about topping the plant instead of just doing LST. It should be big enough around day 11 or so, we'll see.
I topped the plant on day 11 and finally managed to fix the humidity issues. The plant was sitting at 27°C with humidity as low as 30% for hours at a time. I'm running a humidifier next to my tents now to help the plants out a bit and the leaves appear to be praying again. Overall this was something completely avoidable, I was just too lazy to deal with it immediately. I don't think it hurt the plant too much as it's still growing well for the most part. The older leaves look somewhat unhappy but that's to be expected from a plant in early veg getting tortured with low humidity.
I watered with 1L on day 12 and did some basic LST on day 13 or so

assert_eq I watered with 1.6L on day 15 and kept up doing a bit more LST each day to make sure the plant receives an even amount of light. I still struggle with low humidity for a bit because I moved the plant into my big tent with some plants in mid to late flower a few days ago. I also unplugged my humidifier by accident so that's nice, got it running again but the plants were sitting at low rh all day :))). The plant is still growing well but there are some blemishes on some of the leaves.
I watered with 2.5L on day 19 and did more LST. I think the plant is about to hit pre-flower
Good call, I spotted the first signs of pre-flower on day 20

assert_eq I added 5 scoops of Green House Feeding Bio Bloom as a top dress and watered with 3L on day 22. I also removed a few leaves that were bothering me. This is also where I will stop doing LST for the most part.
Pretty sure the plant is gonna start stretching soon
I watered with another 4L on day 25 and 5L on day 28.

assert_eq I watered with another 4L on day 32 and 35. Sorry for the lack of updates and pictures. My other plants were taking up a lot of space in my tent but they were getting close to harvest. It was hard to take proper pictures of the plant without everything else getting in the way. I'm pretty sure this also resulted in the plant getting less light than necessary and resulted in less growth overall. I'm still happy with how the plant turned out but it probably could've grown a lot more under different conditions.

Again sorry for the lack of pictures. I chopped my other plants by now so the amount of pictures taken and quality should improve again.

assert_eq I watered with 4L on day 44. I kind of messed up the watering frequency somehow. Every two days is too frequent but if I go for every third day, the soil will be way too dry. I also don't have the time to constantly look after the plant(s) so I guess the plant will have to deal with it. So far so good though. I see very minor signs deficiencies on some of the leaves but I'll ignore it for the time being. It could very well be due to the dry conditions at my place and the prolonged periods without water.
I see ur trying a thing I tried before with Botanicare pure blend bloom nutrients instead of the grow due to the n tox it did work fine for me on the ones I did.. I'd still be using the Botanicare if I wasn't messing around with these growdots lately. But good luck with this one !!
