I was a bit nitrogen rich. Some really dark green leaves. My midweek watering was only ph'd water to about 5.7 and big bloom. My soil ph seems to stay around 7.5 based on a 3 in one soil tester

Watering about every two to three days. Three days ago, I broke a stem, but pressed it back together and used some black superglue. Seems to be doing very well. The leave have not wilted or seemed to react to the injury at all. Started running a co2 generator beginning of this week as well. I tried to start with some lst, don't think she's quite ready for that though yet. Well, last night I mixed up a 1/3 strength seedling solution with some hydroguard and poured about a quart around the outer edge of the pot to encourage the roots to stretch outward. Today, the small cluster of droopy leaves regained much of their perkiness back 😋

didn't seem that I had a lot of growth. A few brown tips looking like it may be a bit of nute burn. Also a few golden yellow spots that might could be confused with rust. I believe what happened is that I caused a note lockout. I forgot that autos only need about half the use dosage, so I gave hardly any at all this week. Overall, she looks beautiful. I topped the 4th node once a few weeks ago. The two new nodes are thick as a pencil

easy to grow strain with what seems like i will have a very generous yield notwithstanding all the mistakes I made along the way. Smells amazing, but not overwhelming. Very lemony smell
