RevvshiWoW The seed was germinated as follows:
I left it in water for one full day, then another day in a moist paper towel. After that, it went straight into its hole in the soil — and by the third day I already counted Day 1.
So today, November 16th, is officially Day 1.
Two of the plants will be grown in living soil with automatic wick watering.
The third plant will go into the soil from my last grow — meaning this substrate is now being used for the third time. That plant will be hand-watered with BioBizz nutrients, and it’s basically the experiment of this run: How well can a plant do in soil that’s been reused three times?
I’m planning to switch to 12/12 around New Year’s

RevvshiWoW One of the seedlings weakened overnight between Day 2 and Day 3. By midday it had completely collapsed and never recovered.
The other two, however, are doing great — strong, upright, and developing normally.

RevvshiWoW The plants are growing. They don’t look super happy yet, but they are making progress. The new growth is coming in slowly but steadily. I’m keeping an eye on them and giving them time to recover and settle. As long as they keep pushing new leaves, I’m not worried
RevvshiWoW I topped the faster-growing plant and removed the two lowest branches, leaving only the top two main shoots.
On the smaller plant on the right, I only removed the two lowest branches for now. I’ll most likely top her at the end of next week so she will also end up with just two main shoots.
Both plants seem to have adapted well to the living soil and are responding positively so far

RevvshiWoW Both plants have recovered very well after the topping and the light defoliation, with each plant being topped once. They are now clearly picking up speed and have started to grow vigorously again.
It really looks like the critical phase they were in is over, whatever the issue was at the time. From this point on, the focus for the remaining days of the year is to encourage as many new shoots and side branches as possible.
If everything continues like this, we’re on a very good path to flip them into flowering around New Year’s.
