GUAVA

Chrisbowa Sep 9 - 13. Slow this week like I expected. She's just getting to know her surroundings. I've been watering with plain water that I let sit out for 48 hours only watering about 2 inches away from the plant. I'll continue watering like this for another week or 2 before I water near the base of her. I found some campfire sticks and set them up so I can open her up as much as I can for my challenge. I'm ready 💪 🤪.

Chrisbowa Sept 14 - 20 This week was good growth like expected. She's on a roll. Not much to do now. I spiked some leaves down to start getting enough light everywhere. Still watering outside the leaf area and I'm adding a little cal-mag. No neutreants yet. I usually start around week 4. Anyway everything is doing great so far.

Chrisbowa Sept 21 - 27 My challenge is going better than I expected. I started training her a little by spiking down some leaves and it payed off. My most bottom branch is just about to pass the top of the plant, and the others are catching up. 🤔 I don't think I'm gonna bend her like I usually do, think Im just gonna pull the branches outward and somehow tie them loosely to the sticks. I may have to add some more. Gonna start feeding her this coming week.

Chrisbowa Sept 29 - Oct 4 She's growing fast. She went from 8 inches to 19 inches in a week. I'm pulling the branches away using pipe cleaners. I didn't want to bend the top of the plant, but it's 13 inches away from the lights and she hasn't stretched yet. So I'm gonna add some more sticks around the pot and try to make everything as even as possible. I guess I'll try to tie down every branch that grows. I'm gonna need a lot of sticks. Wish I had a bigger tent 😕. Im using reverse osmosis water and I'm adding 1 tsp per gallon and a half of cal-mag. No neutreants yet.

Chrisbowa Oct 5 - 11. Well this week she went into flower mode overnight. Love those FastBuds! Started feeding her this week. Giving 2 gallons with run-off. I know it's late to just start feeding but I wanted her to use all neutreants in the soil mix. Those sticks and pipe cleaners did a great job opening her up. Haven't cut any leaves except 2 because it looks like just about every bud site has light hitting them. I'll open it up a little more this week and then let her do her own thing. Anyway so far so good. I also made some canbutter out of the Kief I got out of my last plant. I'll show some pics.

Chrisbowa Oct 12 - 18. I may have done some damage this week 😳. I accidentally used my lemon tree fertilizer instead of my cal-mag in her feeding 😔. Overnight her leaves started to change. Decided to flush her next time, but completely forgot and gave her the normal neutreants as scheduled. So I'm hoping she'll correct herself. She's growing pretty fast and I haven't adjusted anything to open her up more because there's just not enough room. The pictures make the area look big, but it's only a 2 foot square. Anyway let's hope next week I'll have better news.

Chrisbowa Oct. 19 - 25. Well, she's still doing great 👍. I haven't touched her this week at all. Just been watering. I didn't get a chance to open her up a little more or cut any leaves because I didn't want to put her through any extra stress she was having from my Lemon Tree fertilizer. Anyway some of her leaves look terrible but I'll let them stay for now until I think she's fine or they start looking worse. Starting to get a sweet smell developing from her. I was getting a little worried because there was only a strong fresh grass smell coming off her before before now. Lots of hair on her and it makes her look soft 😍 I just want to pet her and tell her she's doing a great job.
