How do you tell when it is time to water your plants and is it a good idea to put an inch of perlite on top of the growing medium?

She looks great. If she's that big in 2 weeks she's going to be a big one. It's very easy to over water in the beginning and a common issue especially when you have a small plant in a big pot. Keeping the humidity as high as possible 65-70% for seedlings is great until their root system gets bigger. Best way is to let the top inch dry to about the depth of your first knuckle. Next pick up your pot and feel the weight before and after watering it takes time to get the feel. In the first few weeks you don't need to water the entire pot. At the stage your at if you water a circular area about 6 to 8 inches around the plant you should be good. The water will moisten an area larger than you watered. Remember the root system is still very small. Lastly get your hands on an electronic moisture meter to help you determine how much moisture there is at different levels in your pot. I use one myself especially between week 3-6 after that they drink like crazy. Good luck I will follow your grow.

This weeks progress looks good. Not much any problems, Going to start LST soon, however, the plant seems a bit loose at the point it comes out of the soil, scared to bend it too much. any recommendations to make the base more stable?

Everything seems to be track. No complaints, Let us see what the LST brings to the grow! Should begin to up the nutrient levels slowly. Been on the low side of feeding nutrients.

The recovery from the LST is amazing. The plant quickly regained shape and is back on track, hopefully going to do another round of LST. Trying to get the side branches room for more light before flowering begins.

Everything looks alright so far. Did a bit of LST to make space for airflow and increase light penetration. Not sure if I should start removing small bud sights, to help the main ones get bigger!

This week is going to be interesting, Going to be changing the nutrient ratios, do some soil topping and some light LST. Hope these flowers keep growing!!! looking for advice on whether I should remove the smaller bud sites. I have tried to watch videos and read up on it, but I am even more confused, considering this is an autoflower. Any help on this topic would help big time!

What an amazing week! Just doing what is needed. Feeding once a day now. She's in preflower and the trichomes are starting to appear. Any thoughts on cloning an autoflower?

Trichomes are showing off. Top leaves becoming slightly yellow. I have increased my bloom nutrient dosage. Buds should start thickening up soon.

Stopped feeding Bio-grow nutrient due to Nitrogen toxicity. Only continuing with the Bio-bloom. The smell is getting intense every day. I will be watering until 20% runoff from now. looks like she'll be ready to harvest in +-3 weeks.

Signs of Potassium and Phosphorus deficiency still showing, even after increasing dosage. Trichomes still clear. Maybe another week until flushing.

A great week went by. Starting flushing this coming week. Should flush for about one to one and a half weeks before chopping them down. The smell in the room is overpowering.

Great week. Nothing but flushing her with about 3 litres every 2 days. pH of runoff is 6.55. Just waiting for the trichomes to become milky and a bit amber.

This week she has been maturing steadily. Easy going, just been flushing her every 2 to 3 days. Will do an Ice water flush this coming week, thereafter 2 days darkness... it's finally time to CHOP HER DOWN!!! Just waiting for the trichomes to all get milky with some Amber.

Sorry for the late update! Been really busy the past couple of weeks. The plant has been cut and buds are drying now. I thought I would put up a couple of pictures just before I chopped her down. I will be posting some final pictures soon with pics of the dry bud. The smell in the room is intense citrus and dark chocolate. Can't wait to try her out!

Amazing opportunity to be able to share this growing experience with the community. It's so great to have a platform where we can be helped and guided on anything grow related. There are so many unknowns and I think I have realised just how complicated growing good bud can be. I am humbled and respect the plant more as a result. I am extremely happy with the results for my first grow ever! Until next time!
