CannaArchive Germination Method: The seeds were placed in a glass of water with a small amount of hydrogen peroxide and kept on a heating mat in darkness. After sprouting, they were planted directly into the final pots. Environment: Temperature: ~26 Β°C Humidity: ~95% RH Observations: Both Apricot Auto seedlings broke through the soil during week 1, but experienced some early difficulties. The seed shells did not fall off naturally and had to be carefully removed by hand. This caused a noticeable delay in early development compared to the other plant in the grow. Cotyledons opened slowly, and growth was temporarily stalled, but the seedlings remained alive and stable. 🌱 Watering / Feeding: No nutrients were used during this week. Only very light watering was applied to keep the seedling zone slightly moist. Notes: Week 1 was mainly about getting through the germination phase and handling early seed shell issues. The focus was on maintaining high humidity and stable conditions to give the seedlings the best chance to recover and continue developing naturally πŸ™‚

CannaArchive Environment: Temperature: ~26 °C Humidity: ~72% RH Watering / Feeding: During this week, both plants were watered with RO water supplemented with CalMag to help reduce early stress and support root and cell development. No base nutrients were added at this stage. Observations: Week 2 was mainly focused on recovery after the early seed shell issues. Apricot Auto #1 responded well and began to stabilize, showing improved leaf development and a healthier overall appearance. Apricot Auto #2 remained slower and showed delayed development, with lighter leaf color compared to #1, but stayed alive and stable. 🌱 Lowering the humidity from very high germination levels helped improve overall plant stability and root activity. No training or plant manipulation was performed. The main goal this week was to keep conditions steady and allow the plants to recover naturally before pushing growth 😊

CannaArchive Environment: Temperature: ~25–26 Β°C Humidity: ~65 % RH Light intensity: increased up to ~350 PPFD Watering / Feeding: Watering frequency was adjusted based on pot weight, roughly every three days. Apricot #1: ~1 L per watering Apricot #2: ~1 L per watering Both plants received RO water with CalMag. Additionally, 1 application of Green House Bio Enhancer and 1 application of Bio Tabs Orgatrex was given during the week. Observations: This week showed clearer differences between the two plants: Apricot Auto #1 is developing well and continues to grow at a healthy pace, showing good leaf structure and improved vigor. Apricot Auto #2 is still growing slower but steady. The plant remains smaller, yet progress is visible and the newer leaves look better than in previous weeks. Leaf color overall looks healthy green, with Apricot #2 slightly lighter compared to the other two plants in the tent. Training / Work Done: No training was applied. I decided to avoid stress and only gently tucked leaves where necessary to improve light exposure. Light intensity was intentionally increased this week after keeping it lower (~150 PPFD) earlier on to allow the plants to fully stabilize before pushing growth.😊🌱

CannaArchive Growth Stage: Transition / Pre-Flower Environment: Temperature: ~25–26 Β°C Humidity: ~60–62 % RH Light intensity: increased to ~500 PPFD Watering / Feeding: Plants were watered with plain water + CalMag during this week. No base nutrients were added, as the focus was on keeping stress low during the transition into flowering. Observations: Week 3 marked the start of pre-flowering for both Apricot Autos. Apricot Auto #1 showed the first white pistils about one day after the Amnesia, clearly indicating the transition into flower. Growth looks stable, and the plant continues to improve compared to the earlier weeks. Apricot Auto #2 entered pre-flower about one day after #1. While still noticeably smaller and less developed, it also showed clear signs of flowering and continued growing steadily. The transition into flower felt slightly early for the Apricots, but the decision was made to let them run naturally without any intervention. Training / Work Done: No training or manipulation was done this week. The plants were left untouched to avoid unnecessary stress during the transition phase. Notes: Week 3 was mainly about observation and stability. Both Apricot Autos successfully entered pre-flower and are now preparing for the upcoming stretch and early flowering phase.

She's recovering nicely from those early adjustments! Sometimes they need a bit to find their groove. Looking forward to seeing her bounce back strong! 🌿πŸ’ͺ
