Tropic OZZ x Yellow Melon (Ozz)

NidoR420 One of the 3 is growing much faster than the others. Started controlling the PH at the end of WK01 with ~300ml of dechlorinated water every 3 days, aiming for a PH of 6.5 (in view of WK2 where I will use Boom Roots). No nutrients used apart the ones present in the full mix so far.

NidoR420 I’m gradually adding a small amount (0.75ml/L) of Boom Roots (organic) to the ~300ml of dechlorinated water. Ozz is looking gorgeous (photos), but her sisters are growing quite slowly. Despite this, they’re still growing healthy without any leaf deformities. I was initially rotating my plants to ensure they received light uniformly, but it seemed to weaken the plants and distort their growth shape. So, I’ll keep them in the same orientation for the rest of the growth. On the next watering day, I’ll add some substrate to stabilise the stems. I also need to monitor the watering more closely, as the humidity in my growing area is high (between 60 to 80% RH).

NidoR420 She is doing great, still outgrowing her 2 sisters by far. I’m not so concerned as they just seem to grow healthy but slower. The 2 smaller will go in 7 gallons pots anyway, whereas Ozz will be repotted in a 15 gallon pot when 4/5 full set of leaves will have grown. I will include a picture of the 3 for the reference this weekend. I need to control the height of my plants as I’m growing on a rooftop, so I’m planning to do LST but I’m unsure if before or after transplanting. Previous watering was 10 days after germination. Unfortunately, there was a sudden storm on the supposed watering day and the plants got wet. It further delayed the addition of substrate as the soil stayed moist for nearly another week. I also missed controlling the pH of the solution when watering, which was around 8 (no nutrients though). I’ll aim for a closer to 6 for future watering to balance it. The weather turned really bad in the second half of Week 2, and the growth was clearly slowed. However, it’s improving this week. Also gave me the opportunity to grab a few litres of rain water, with a ppm of only 93 (after boom roots) and naturally balanced at a PH of 6.
