AllexStories This week she received a hug from a bottle, ups. She got a bit crooked, but a day after it was just fine, i think theres nothing to worry!
This week the climate had change a bit, maybe a lit bit warm.
Some tinny bugs had also appear, i got scared, but it's ok, i gave her 1ml of neem oil (in 1L of water), and 3 days later i can't see no bugs at all.

AllexStories I think Oscar's growth is slowing down, the soil is nothing special, i mean, really nothing special, so day 18 and i am giving 1/5 of the recommended dose of nuts. I was searching and the plant can get the full dose of the nutrients, but is a little bit early, so, only 1/5. Let's see what happens.
HE IS DEFINITIVELY FACING A SLOW GROWTH, could it be the heat? about 30 Celsius, facing the sun directly 8h (10am-18pm).
Some bad things that happened since the begging:
- A bottle smash him for some hours (upsi haha)
- The ph in the beggining was around 8, than 5.6, and now the right value.
- The soil is just the mix from the store, without perlite.
Will Oscar still growing?? Thank u!!

AllexStories So guys, basically giving the nuts was good, i think he finally start showing some grow signals, which is good, even tho it's almost 30 days from sprouting.
I think Oscar will be really small, i don't know if it's even possible such a small plant give any flower haha
BUT, i will keep giving all the love i have to give!
The same bugs from the firsts week are appearing, i only saw one, but i will giving the plant 1ml/L of neem oil again, the first time was great so, let's do it again!
ADVICES:
- If u want to grow some weed on your balcony, and doesn't want to spend some money, SPEND SOME MONEY!
Don't buy cheap soil, ever! 50L for 3€ it's a bad deal i swear hahaha
My next grow will be with BioBizz soilmix, and some Perlite, let's see haha
- If it get's really hot where u live, like more than 30 degrees, don't let the plant too many hours with direct sunlight since she born! As u can see in the second photo, the first 2 "normal" leafs are yellow and dry, they are dead. This will not do anything bad to Oscar i think, but, it is definitively not good. So don't burn your babies. "Comfortable for u, comfortable for your plants!"
- Buy neem oil!
==========================================================================================
Comment some tips or your opinion!
Thank u!

AllexStories So, Oscar didn't grow that much this week, but the bugs are off, thanks to neem oil.
As the growth was literally stopped, this weekend i gave him between 0.5 and 1,5ml of the nuts dose (the recommended dose for a bigger plant) during the week to see what happen... Let's see haha

AllexStories Well, Oscar finally start flowring hahaha, wich is fun as u can see. It's like a normal house plant xD
I will start giving "bloom" nuterients, to see what happens!
Can anyone tell me if it is ok to smoke the 0,3g that this plant will give?? hahaha
Some burns on the lower leafs, or is nuteritns burn or the sun, those 2 little leafs are under the sunlight for about/almost 2 months!

AllexStories So guys, it's been a year since i come here, but i will upgrade everything tho haha
Basically the soil was a shit and it bring a lot os bugs, someone that commented said the problem! "Aphibs" or something! It was that, really SMALL bugs on the soil.
Didn't transplant or anything, just let it there.
AllexStories So this was really fun to smoke, i mean, almost 3 months of plant for a joint haha but it was good.
Smoked before cinema, a comedy one, the movie or the high was weird, but fun haha
I growed another plant last year, it was called Penélope, i will update now the grow, feel free to check it :)
@AllexStories, I'd suggest that you dig her up and repot her when you get some nice soil mix. It can still be saved and it can start growing normally.
Don't forget to remove the old soil, just remove the soil until you see the roots.

Well yes i do believe, the problem was that i'v only put the soil, without perlite or coco, etc haha
Next grow i will do it!
Thank for you comment and keep growing!
@AllexStoriesStories, I did the same before but on my pepper plants. I grew them in soil and that was ok for them. But after I mixed some coco and perlite the are growing insanely. Pure soil is very compact and new seedlings don't have strong roots to break through the soil. It slows them down.
What you can do in future is grow your seedlings in smaller pots but in pots mix up some soil mixture I recommended. And never firmly pack your soil in pots, always break up your soil with hands so you don't have any clumps. If you don't have coco, you can mix up just with perlite or just coco and soil, and don't use 50/50 soil coco as you'd need to water your plants more frequently as you lose water retention with lots of coco.
My 14l pots with 60/40 mixture I mentioned can't retain more than 1.2l of water. Anything more just goes out of pot. Which sucks. No I know better 😀
My advice is to make your own soil. Get what ever you like or you can buy, grab a testing pot up to 4l and play with soil mixtures.
Just don't waste money on some expensive soils mixes. Good potting mix with pH of 6 to 6.8 is ok.
I like to make my own stuff that way I know how to handle it. But that's just me. 😋
@Satori_Hanso, Yes thank for the advices! I'ma do my own soil next time haha, not gonna waste time and seeds just cause is easy, i will mix 30/40 perlite with 70/60 of soil, let's see haha
That one nug plant will certainly be smokeable! A lot of guys pull them out, but if you’ve got the resources and space why not let her grow out, she’s cute man!
Regarding soil. I got mine for 3.5€ 20l. That's some quality soil here. Soil is at 5.8pH with some other nice stuff inside. I added perlite and coco coir. 60% soil 40% coco and a handful of perlite for a 14l pot. The mixture is nice a fluffy and my plants are loving it. Come and check my diaries so I don't have to write extensively here.
I hope your plants will skyrocket soon.
Something in your diary isn't clear to me. When you say the substrate wasn't good, I suppose it wasn't, and it's visible that it's not the best, but with the BioNova ferts (both the Autoflowering Supemix and the PK 13/14), the plant is incredibly small. Therefore, it seems to me that this plant hasn't had a bit of sun (neither direct nor indirect, not from grow lights, LEDs, or regular incandescent bulbs) — in other words, this plant is a "plant" that hasn't even been getting light from a window, and it seems this plant was in almost complete darkness (total shade) throughout its entire life. It's very simple to see; the leaves didn't grow, there's no internodal stretching, the seedling leaves are thick and wrinkled and overlap. What happened in this grow experiment was growth without light (not even simple incandescent light from a bulb, natural light from a window, or any other type of light source), and the only thing that kept it going was the BioNova ferts, and considering the amount of fertilizer that was given to the plant, it was almost minimal. It's a miracle of nature that this plant made it to 10 weeks (and this demonstrates how resilient cannabis is) and I'm amazed it even produced three little trichome hairs. This experiment is almost like reproducing the conditions of a nuclear winter (bad soil, poor fertilization, no indoor or outdoor light... even in the shade of outdoor light or a 60-watt incandescent bulb, the plant would have developed a bit more than what happened with this "plant." And my question is "what the hell have you had to smoke, my friend?" And more, it doesn't sound so fun to throw money away on the seed and the ferts, but every friend knows their own... and next time, maybe you can show us a plant just the opposite of all these conditions (good substrate, good watering, a solid fert plan, and optimal light, preferably outdoor).
I don't know if this grow is still running but after reading your comments and looking at your pictures I think its root aphids.
Check after watering if you see tiny bugs come out the soil, dig a little down and check there and maybe use some diatomaceous earth. They are a quick kill providing you can toss the plant quick :( Watch out they can be such a pain in the ass. You get them from cheap soil stored outside.
My friend had the exact same issue outdoors until we found them. His plant stayed tiny for weeks my theory is that they only eat the new roots and therefore your young plant is in a state where it only develops roots for them to be eaten again. I am a newbie so dont take my word on it
Best of luck I really hope its not them and I was able to help
