sealeater as mentioned next to the photo i am a bit concerned with the color of the leaves and hope someone can give a possible explanation keep in mind though i am a very basic grower only having 1 successful grow under my belt and have very limited equipment only a 1mx1mx2m tent and a marshydro ts600 grow light with around 100wats of power as i am still rather young and in college i do not have the money to invest in any extra gear at the moment as i am sure some of you might recomend a stronger light and an air filter but it is at this point completely out of the question. For the growing medium i am using a 50/50 blend of coco and some genric vegetable potting soil untill i transplant it into a blend closer to 80 soil 20 coco. my thinking is that the coco being less dense it will allow the roots to push through the medium easier at the beginning and help them grow faster and more vigorus. The only successful grow was an autoflower and i had it in 100% soil and as tey are known for not having strong roots you can imagine the final size and yield of the plant was laughable.

sealeater hopes high moving into week 4 the color of the leaves is still concerning but as the plant is still growing well im not as worried as before she made 2 new nodes in week 3 and is visably starting on node number 4 any recomendations are always welcome

sealeater hopes higher than ever going into week 5 started lst and just before week 5 i transplanted into 25 liter pot with 70/30 soil/coco mix. cant wait for the new growth to kick in in the following days and weeks

sealeater moving into week 6 of veg the temps in my area rise significantly just last monday i had to warm the tent now its open all day long to cool down went from daily highs of 10celcius to 30 in a matter of 2 days i am a bit concerned as it looks like its going to be a hot summer and i have no cooling system as i am a low budget grower

sealeater starting the week strong with a snapped branch week 7, day 4: performed another training this time more serious after mondays failure i was more carefull but also went with a more agressive form squeezing the 3 main branches in order to bend the tops away from the light exposing the lower branches hoping for a fast recovery maybe 1 more small topping of the 3 branches 2 weeks from flower max at least untill the clone sprouts visable roots

sealeater just waiting for the clone to root now and give it away then we can beggin flowering added sea algae composte for the first time in a while to the feeding schedule lets see if it does anything i did some defoliating hoping for a quick recovery and am posting photos of that in a few hours update later day 1 of week 8: as seen from the photo i did i slight defoliation by removing some bigger shaded lower laying fan leaves
