zorn_des_kinski I tried to decide on one strain to grow next but just couldn't, so this time I'll try to grow two plants in my 40cm x 40cm tent.
Due to space constraints, two 2.3L (0.6gal) pots are used. I added more peat than usual to increase water retention. I'm curious to see how large (or small) the plants are gonna turn out. Depending on how they develop, I might top or LST them.
Both the Auto Skywalker Haze and Sauvignon Blanc Automatic germinated after only one day in wet paper towels in ziplock bags, which I laid on the radiator.

zorn_des_kinski Humidity domes are still on but I sometimes remove them so the plants can get used to it.

zorn_des_kinski I removed the humidity domes completely and the plants are growing well. The fan is now blowing over them on the lowest setting. Lighting was at ~40% and will now be slightly increased to achieve 280PPFD for a DLI of 20

zorn_des_kinski Pictures: 06.11 - 04.11 - 02.11
06.11.25: LST seems to do its magic with the side shoots. The Auto Skywalker Haze developed necrosis on its oldest leaves. I'm not sure what it is but I'm slightly concerned.
04.11.25: Some staples were used to tug away leaves that were shading the newly emerging sides hoots.
02.11.25: LST was performed on both plants by first entering a garden staple pretty deep right next to the stem. The plant was then bend over that staple and secured with another staple. This was the first time I used this technique so I was very careful.

zorn_des_kinski While my Sauvignon Blanc looks healthy, my Auto Skywalker Haze still suffers from nutrient lockout. This seems a bit odd to me, as both are in the same soil mixture and get the same care. The runoff after watering with pH6.5 was at pH6.0, so the problem is most likely pH related. I did a flush with water @ pH6.5 to do something about it.
Other than that both plants show signs of flowering. The ASH started a few days earlier and is already forming little buds, the SB has some pistils here and there.
I again used some gardening staples to spread the branches.
DLI should be around 35

zorn_des_kinski Auto Skywalker Haze looks worse every day. In the last week I flushed her twice with pH adjusted water to balance the pH. By doing so I might have over watered her, so now she's got one more problem to deal with. Despite the problems, she gained in height and is now 10cm taller than the Sauvignon Blanc (28cm vs. 18cm).
Sauvignon Blanc is still doing fine. I have no clue why these plants react so different to my care 😅
