Bonzai Located in Germany.
Hi Growmies,
Welcome to my first grow diary.
For this run, I decided to go with a classic strain rather than a modern hybrid.
4x Hindu Kush fem. from @SensiSeeds
Sensi Seeds offers Hindu Kush in feminized, autoflowering, and regular seed varieties.
Hindu Kush has been part of the @SensiSeeds gene pool since the 1980s. Over the years, the original genetics have been carefully selected and preserved through many generations, without adding genetics from other strains. This has helped create a very stable and consistent line, which @SensiSeeds officially released as Hindu Kush in 1991. ππΌ
In this grow report, I will document everything in detail: EC levels, climate, training, growth, etc.
The plan is to have a 6-week vegetative period, which Iβll use to top the plants and train them with LST.

Bonzai After 48 hours, the paper towel method gave me four nicely developed seedlings. I planted them into @Plagron Light Mix in 0.75 L pots and gave them a light watering with pH-adjusted water.
About 24 hours later, all four had emerged. They also managed to shed their seed shells by themselves, so no help was needed.
The first set of true leaves is now fully developed, so Iβm starting to count the veg days from this point.
For now, Iβm watering mainly around the stem to encourage the roots to spread out. Iβm also adding @Plagron Power Roots to support early root development.
Looking at the pictures chronologically, the growth during the first week is already noticeable. The plants are healthy and starting to push out their second set of true leaves. π±

So far, everything is looking healthy and theyβre off to a great start! π±

Bonzai Week 2 of veg is underway, and the plants are really starting to develop. π±
This week, I increased the PPFD to around 280 - 300
Watering remains the same: Iβm applying water mainly around the outer edge of the pots to encourage the roots to spread and search for moisture. The amount of water is determined by feel and experience.
pH 6.0 + @Plagron Power Roots.
By Veg Day 8, another set of leaves was developing nicely. On Veg Day 10, I spread the plants out a little as they were starting to need more space.
Iβm also using the small saucers underneath the smaller pots, which allows me to water from below when needed.
The difference between the beginning and end of Week 2 is already clearly visible.
Current conditions:
β’ PPFD: ~200β250
β’ pH: 6.0
β’ EC: 0.2
β’ Light distance: 60 cm
β’ Temperature: 24Β°C
β’ RH: ~55β60%
β’ No humidifier available
Everything is developing nicely. Letβs see what Week 3 brings! π±π

Bonzai Week 3 of veg and things are starting to pick up! π±
Growth has accelerated noticeably. The plants are getting wider and more compact, the fan leaves are getting larger, and the new growth is coming in healthy and strong. The first side branches are developing nicely, and the plants are looking very vigorous overall.
Starting this week, Iβm adding 0.3 g/L Epsom Salt to my tap water to maintain the desired CalMag ratio (3:1). The Epsom Salt provides magnesium, an essential component of chlorophyll and photosynthesis.
Vegetative Day 18 β Transplant Day π±
The 0.75 L pots were fully rooted, so it was time to move the plants into temporary 5 L pots.
Iβm also adding and mixing @Plagron Perlite into the Light Mix at approximately 4:1 to improve aeration and drainage.
Mycorrhizal cultures were applied during the transplant as well. Together with @Plagron Power Roots, Iβm aiming for rapid root development and a smooth transition into the larger pots.
Watering / Nutrients π§
β’ 1.5 L per plant
β’ 1 ml/L @Plagron Power Roots
β’ 0.3 g/L Epsom Salt
β’ pH: 6.0
β’ EC: 0.4
Vegetative Day 20.
The plants showed no signs of transplant stress β fantastic.
Thatβs why I increased the PPFD to 320β350. They have already developed 4, in some cases even 5, nodes β which means topping will be done in 1β2 days.
From now on, Iβll also note the vegetation day on the pictures, so you can follow the progress even more easily.
Stay tuned for the next updates! π±π
