Granddaddy Purple - 2019 Grow - 1st Grow

Purchased some seeds from Dr. Seeds in Canada and here is my first week - I learned so much this past week just learning the ins and outs. - This plant is 1 of 4 I'm growing this summer, chose this one for my first Journal, hope I picked the right one.

Second week appears to be going smoothly, still just misting with pH balanced water and covering with a dome. Can't wait for the true leaves to start sprouting.

This week was an interesting week, I did a lot of research on nutrients and watering. Just to say there is way more types and many ways to use those types of nutrients while growing then I could read in a life time. My GdP girl grew 1/2 an inch this week. We are still indoors for at least a couple more weeks. Yesterday I started her on a nutrient schedule. I decided to go with Green Planet Dual Fuel and I will be adding Rezin later on. Day 21 Feeding Water in: 2 Cups; PPM 166; pH 6.07 Runoff: PPM 592; pH 5.54

GdP doesn't seem to be growing taller yet, but is growing new leaves. I've gone back to just pH balanced spritzing as the watering with overflow seems to make the soil too wet. I've been putting her on the window sill during the day to get some real sun, and back under the lights when the sun moves past.

This week was pretty slow and simple, Continued the spritz pH balance water when she dried. Some more growth. Placing her outside when sun is shining.

So this week scared me, as the leaves started to turn yellow. I was told it was either over watering or nutrients in the soil. So I place them outside during the day when it was hot and sunny, which dried out the soil and 3 out of the 4 plants were laying on their sides when I got home work and the soil was very dry. I propped up the stems and gave them some pH 6.0 water around the edges. I've been putting them out when the sun is shinning, but they still seem small to me, hoping to soon leave them outside 24/7.

With the watering issues I had last week, I decide to repot my plant into solo cup. Still just watering with pH 6 water as needed, once the soil dries

What a week a difference makes, I thought I was going to lose her, but boy did she bounce back. Smaller pot and better water control and she is doing well now. I have left her outside the last two days overnight. I bring her inside if we are expecting a storm. Still watering once needed once the plant dries.
