this is my second time growing. i'm only going to be giving them water, no nutrients as they are in nutrient rich soil completely outdoors i germinated the seeds outdoors i allowed them to naturally germinate i watered them to help with the germination
Moved the plants indoors because we have somewhere to do them indoors and they will do much better than outdoors. we got rid of royal dwarf as there not that good and we don't have enough space for 4 plants so we germinated a sweet gelato from Sweet Seeds. my brother wasn't able water the sweet gelato seedling when it first germinated, so it was a bit stunted but its starting to grow quick. we moved the sweet zz on top of a pot so its closer to the light as it wasn't getting as much light as the other plant its growing much quicker now its closer, we are going to re pot the sweet zz in 2 days into the same size pot as the sweet gelato then we are going to let the plant recover for a week then top it and start low stress training
we repotted the Sweet ZZ on sunday its now in a pot the same size as the sweet gelato we planned to top it in a weeks time to allow it to recover from the repotting and start low stress training. it has had a lot of growth the past 4 days
Day 20 update we have began low stress training on the Sweet ZZ
Day 22 update my brother snapped a leaf while i was trying to low stress train hopefully it doesn't stress the plant too much we also moved the light closer as its not that powerful but i will check the plants tomorrow to make sure its not to close to the light
Day 25 update i can see some pistils at the top of the Sweet ZZ which means its going into flower soon
Day 15 update Sweet Gelato is starting to side branch already so i figured i would train it for light exposure to them
Day 28 update there is a bit of damage on one of the stems from the low stress training but it shouldn't effect it hopefully
Day 29 update leaf with the damaged stem died doesn't seemed to have affected the plant
Day 30 update i got a fan so there is air flow and it should sturdy the plants up
Day 31 decided to stop the low stress training and let the plant do its thing i also removed a leaf which wasn't getting any light and a bit of growth which wasn't either
i got a thermometer and it is too hot and the humidity is only 33% i need to get a humidifier the Sweet ZZ is in flower now for some reason the leaves on both plants are getting yellow marks on them i cut off the leaves worst effected incase its a disease i'm hoping the yellowing was only caused by the conditions they are in i'm getting a humidifier tomorrow which should bring the temp down a bit and increase the humidity which is perfect
Day 36 update i got a humidifier it has made the environment much better for the plants
Day 28 update i began some plant bending and low stress training on the sweet gelato to improve the canopy
plants having been going well the past couple days i'm going to get some nutrients from my brother in the next couple of days so the buds can fatten even more than they already are
Day 49 i have began feeding the Sweet ZZ i think the yellowing was caused by ph i have watered them with much lower ph which should hopefully correct the issues
i have began feeding the sweet zz gave her a very light feed probably not enough so i increased the nutes a little bit seems like the yellow was caused by some sort of nutrient defiency may have been caused by ph i dont know as for the whole of veg i never ph'd the tap water and when i tested it it was 7.2 so it may have been that i have been watering them with 6.2-6.3 hopefully thats a good ph
