Island seeds in the Mainland

jellyjelly Growing a bit sideways and stretched but otherwise healthy!

jellyjelly Came back from being away to find 2 absolute STRETCHERS and tons of thriving plants! Stems varying in thickness but over plants seem happy and growing well.. these Hawaii strains seem incredibly stretchy Seeing some small roots come out the cup drip holes - these will likely find a better pot soon and a taller enclosure

jellyjelly Starting week 4 of veg with the environment finally stable. The upgraded humidifier locked in humidity and the plants are responding accordingly with relaxed, slightly upward leaves. The enclosure has been improved; it’s now taller and more reflective, improving light spread across the canopy. All plants were transplanted into 1 gallon pots and showed no slowing or stress. The main stems are thickening with tight internode spacing. The apical meristem is pushing fresh growth, fan leaves are fully formed, and axillary shoots are developing at each node - 5th node formed on all plants. Overall, healthy structure and steady growth moving into week 4 given the growing environment improvements.

jellyjelly Nothing like coming back from a few days away and seeing the plants hold their vigor. All the babies are getting thicker stems and maintaining green growth, with initial leaves wilting and dying as expected. With the added humidity, I’ve been having some trouble dialing in watering. Plants showing slight droopiness, tons of humidity present - instinct tells me underwatering, yet gnats showed up in 1 of the pots. I’ll continue watering daily minimally and see how plants respond. Also, the two stretchers were topped to hopefully have these at the same canopy height as everybody else. Definitely seeing variations between strains and phenos, I hope the majority are female 🤞

jellyjelly Plants are thriving again and growing vigorously!!! 🌱 I realized watering daily with such small amounts was creating top moisture, perfect for gnats and not allowing my roots to get oxygen. Watering every other day being sure to give a FULL watering allowed me to reach this ideal state (duh)! The two girls that were topped are responding tremendously 😅 for the most part it didn’t stunt the vertical height as much as I hoped. I’m eager to throw these in the 4x4 in about a week or two as I’m pushing the limits of this makeshift tent (storage rack covered in insulated reflective material with sub par lighting) - tent height will be readjusted soon.

jellyjelly Another week down of vigorous green growth.. maybe a little too much LOL One more plant was topped again to try to match the overall canopy height of all plants. I think I’ve pushed the limits of this custom enclosure and will need to make 2 of these rack tents to continue to hold these until the main tent is freed up and fix my current overcrowding issue which is contributing to uneven growth and stems due to unintentional shading of fan leaves. I wish growth would slow down 😭😅 eager to throw this into the 4x4 and into some 5Gal pots

jellyjelly Another amazing week of growth - they are all quite thirsty and could definitely use some more soil and space. The grow rack was split into two to maximize space - things are getting out of hand quickly LOL Seeing some variations in each pheno, along with some I think some plants being male (??) Eager for the upcoming transplant and placing them in a dedicated grow tent
