LSD : Feminized : Rookie Grow

This was the first week. Not much happening besides the seedling sprouting out. Was super stoked! Cant wait to update more.

Week 2 has been going well. The plant has been getting wind training and really taking to her soil mixture. This week I barely watered her because her top soil an inch down was still moist. Shes getting used to her grow environment still.

Week 4 has been going extremely well. The plants have taken to their home finally. Ive added coffee grounds to the soil as a pest deterrent and pH balancer(acidic). This will also get me some deeper terpine flavors in the buds. Shes at half the nutrient recommendation because she just doesnt need a gallon with her current growth.

Week 5 has been going extremely well. All plants have adjusted to LST, topping, and defoliation as expected. This was my first time using these grow techniques and they loved it. The ladies got their training towards the end of their day, and once they woke up they were standing tall and happy to see me.

Week 6 was very stressful. I had a malfunction in my wireless plug which left the lights off for about 5 hours. I had to scramble to fix it since amazon shipping with Coronavirus is taking 3-4 weeks. Once we got that back solid, humidity levels were increasing with the outside weather. I went ahead and turned on the turbine day in day out so that we can level out the humidity and maintane current temps. Other than that, the ladies are doing fine with some light infestation of bugs. We will see how the next few weeks go.

Week 7: Learned a super valuable lesson. I went back to check on my seeds, thinking they were auto flower. Come to find out, they were regular feminized seeds and needed to be put into a 12-12 cycle to start flowering. :)

So we ran into some issues on week 7, all characterized by overwatering and adding too many nutrients. With all that said, week 7 was pretty much the Emergency room. We lost the LSD strain (very sad), but the other random seed is doing great after placing outside do to many recommendations from the amazing people on this site. I will manage watering more closely, and refrain from the nutrients unless needed. Watching the leaves will be my goal on the final stages of this grow to learn when/when not to add nutes. Thanks everyone for following.
