Seedling popped above ground 05-05-2020. It is a bit difficult tracking temperatures and humidity since shes growing basically outside. Humidity ranges from like 20%-90% throughout the day/night. Temperatures differ every day depending on the weather as this small plastic greenhouse does not really contain any heat.
The timelapse is not optimal at this moment as the camera's time was off by 2 hours and starts/stops timelapses based on sun up-down.
Timelapse uploaded, more pics on their way.
Transplanted to her final pot this week, I covered the stem up till the cotyledons. Mixed in 75 grams of Monster Bud Mix from Zamnesia and upped the nutes. Fixed the timelapse schedule as well.
She seems to be doing really well. Had to move the camera up some in order to fit the entire plant, but while doing so I accidentally knocked something off that fell onto the plant. Added a little stint to keep her upright, but she didn't seem very impressed by the impact and happily kept on growing.
Topped her to third node to prepare her for manifolding. Cut off the tip as well as the branches on the second node. Had to move the camera up again since she's growing so fast 😁
This week started out well. After topping both sides started growing pretty quickly. Later on in the week I decided to see how flexible the new branches were, they seemed pretty flexible so I wanted to start fixing them down, but not too low. Sadly one of the branches snapped off. I quickly tried to reattach it, but it got loose and died off.
New plan, I left the second node intact to fill up some possibly empty spaces, but now they will have to serve as the right side of the manifold.
Part of the timelapse is a bit weird as the camera kept sliding out of position because of the wire pulling it down, but that should be fixed now.
Removed the dead branch and topped the branches from second node to form 2x2 colas. Later on in the week I tied down the left main branch when it reached the proper length.
Added white foil in the back of the greenhouse to allow for some more light in the back. She reacted to this fairly quickly by rotating her leaves more upward rather than to one side. I also raised the camera more and adjusted the position of the pot for it to be more centered.
Started to cover the entire greenhouse in a bag of foil every night in order to flip to flowering, starting with 48 hours of darkness. Also did some defoliation to let through more light.
I'm afraid the Raspberry Pi's time got reset somehow resulting in the timelapse being taken mostly at night rather than during the day, which means there aren't a lot of usable photo's :(.
Same as week 15, missing a lot of pictures in the timelapse. The storm caused part of the seal to be broken, and the person taking care of it this week was unable to fix it properly. I only got to fix it about two days after, so there has been some light pollution :(.
Same as week 15, missing a lot of pictures in the timelapse :(. I was starting to see a decent amount of amber, and unfortunately a few bananas seemed to start growing as well, so it was time to chop.
I loved growing this plant. I have learnt so many new things. This is the first time I topped, defoliated, attempted to mainline, and everything seems to have worked out pretty well. I have made some mistakes here and there, but that's part of the learning process and lead to a pretty interesting grow :).
