floristician Was enjoying the process of growth. I fed only half the recommended PK dose because the leaves are already a deep green. The tap is hitting. First issues… anyone an idea? CalMag? Light? Overwatering? ChatGPT says a little bit of everything.

floristician Something went wrong last week :(… I think I have a watering issue. I thought that with BioTabs the soil should always stay moist, so I never let the soil dry out completely. That was probably a mistake, because the roots aren’t getting enough oxygen. On day 38 I watered with 1.5 liters of water. The leaves perked up again. But on day 41 the leaves were drooping again, even though the pot is still heavy. I don’t understand why the plant is letting the leaves hang like that. I suspect it’s simply been watered too much.

floristician Day 43 The pot is still heavy and still has moisture, and the plant is still letting its leaves droop. Day 47 its getting better…

floristician The plant is still giving me trouble. The leaves aren’t drooping as much anymore, but everything points to a calcium–magnesium dosing issue. I’m just going to finish the grow and see what the final result looks like.

floristician I think I’ve gotten the watering problem under control. The plant has recovered a bit, and I hope the buds will still get thicker now.

floristician The plant is now building up a lot of bud mass. By coincidence I bought some coconut water at the drugstore and noticed that it contains a lot of potassium, so I added about 30 ml of the coconut water to the plant, and I feel like it gave the flowering a real boost.

floristician The plant is developing very well now. The buds are getting thicker and thicker. I decided to take the risk and applied a bit more LST, even though the stems are already quite hard. The goal was to get more light down to the lower buds and to make sure the buds aren’t packed too tightly together — rot prevention being the key word here. I also still have some BioBizz nutrients left that I want to use up, so that I can eventually switch over completely to BioTabs. Unfortunately, the trichomes are still a bit far from the stage I’m aiming for. I’m still thinking about when the right time would be to stop feeding altogether.

floristician Autumn is coming, and the leaves are starting to change color beautifully. The plant is now drawing on its last reserves. I won’t be fertilizing anymore this week—only Top Max and Alpha Boost, plus a bit of CalMag. I might even leave out the CalMag; I’m still undecided about that. I’m thinking maybe another week, possibly even two, and then she should be ready. I like it with a bit more amber. I do feel, though, that the plant is still building flower mass and hasn’t really entered the ripening phase yet.

floristician I think the final week has begun. Unfortunately, the trichomes still aren’t as mature as I’d like them to be. I’ve stopped watering now and I’m no longer adding any nutrients.
