This week was very busy! Thanks to your help I kept straight the thin stems of the out babies. I’m wondering what’s best to do to keep a lower profile in the future: topping or fimming?

The kratky girl seems to reach the water but her roots are rottening out (greenish and smelling like rotten eggs). Maybe a change of water can help her?

Her sis, the Queen, is going nicely and I’m very proud. I still dunno if it’s a she or a he, but I will left it untouched (no topping or fimming is need) since it’s growing in a very beautiful and natural form!

The ICE plant is a monster now: after 10 weeks of vegetative she will keep growing slowly and steady: very good! I’m gonna make her flowering late, maybe I will use some cuts to grow some clone, I dunno.. but surely she will be flowering with the Queen and the other girls which will arrive this week, since I’ve been selected for both Zamnesia and GreenHouse contest!

This sunday I cleaned the vent and while doing it I discovered that the pot I used for transplating my tomatoes had a lil secret inside: the Auto Jamaican Blue Mountain! What a beaytiful surprise!
I will let her grow for two weeks before bending at 90º for achieve better results at harvest time.
Hi @AlpineGoat the light must be very high and it stretches too fast in proportion as the stalk gains strength. lower your light further, make a small pile with substrate around the stalk until the plant can stand upright, point a fan at them to blow the wind gently so as not to damage them but so that they shake, the more the stalk shakes the more it gains volume and strength. good luck mate🍀🙏👍
Kratky system isn’t working well for my girl.
She keeps growing slowly thanks to some hydratation with the spray but the roots never reached the water.
I never used rockwool for her, only perlite. What can I do?
It’s almost 1 month old!
@Silky_smooth, have the same kind of setup on one of her diary or too so I recommending you to take a look and well copy what she's doing has she's doing it well. That said if the roots doesn't touch the water you can bring more water or put a cotton mesh , like that the water will travel trought the mesh and will reach the roots , google it , if I remember well they are doing it with dutch pots or NFT system ( I'm not sure )
Short story lot of question: I grew this bagseed for a month an 2 weeks now, and this beauty start showing some pistils on the internode under the top.
I kept her under 18hrs light..
Is it a female?
Is it an auto?
If yes to both question: how should it need before blooming?
When a plant is pushing pistils before the 12/12 switch it does not mean that she is an auto , it’s mean that she is showing sex and that she can be either a female or an hermie ( yes it is a bagseed so it could be an hermaphrodite ). After 2 month and a half you can fairly say that it is not an auto as an auto can be harvest from seeds in 3 month.
Guerrilla grows.... You gotta be careful and cautious when choosing a spot but there's always going to be a high probability that this is going to happen, wherever you choose. Sorry to hear 😞
