Day 8 Sunday: changed into a bucket with led strip lights Day 9 Monday: second set of serrated leaves are growing Day 10 Tuesday visible growth Day 11 Wednesday: I decided that it was growing enough to stick it under the big light and see what happens (it's an auto so I didn't want to keep it under strip LEDs too long) it is in with the NL that I am leaving for another week to test to difference in the flowers. Both are autos so light schedule is 20 on, 4 off. -Also, built up/aded dirt to the cup to turn the stem onto root development, it was way to flimsy from poor light Day 12 Thursday: nothing Day 13 Friday: nothing Day 14 Saturday: clearly growing a bit, will need to change some soil out I think saw a gnat

Sunday D29: topped it, was gone for 4 days and I got huge. Bit of water too Monday D30: added a roommate to the plant. Visible daily growth so it's dealing with being topped well Tuesday D31: visible daily growth so I staked it down trying to do 2 main colas will probably change as plant develops. Plus 500ml Wednesday D32: more growth might do a bit of water Thursday D33: just a bit of LST (just trying to keep it low, not main-lining ) Friday D34: nothing, soil still moist, visible growth since yesterday Saturday D35: decided to be more aggressive with the LST and taking out fans

This shark was an awesome plant to grow. It was hardy delt with moving and pH fluctuation well. Even after all the issues it frosted up well and provided a tone of flower for a 11L pot. Threw some bananas at the end but that was a light-leak that could have been avoided (all three plants in the tent had nanans). I have yet to sample but has a nice funky smell on the stem kinda like baby shit, love it really impressed! After sampling this strain is really racy, and makes me paranoid and anxious like no other.. this could also be the result of recent life events, but compared to some hybrids that I have this one hands down make me the most edgy/anxious/paranoid. Also this came out fairly strong
