Day 1 (day I got plant)
-Placed clone in cup of soil with bottom cut off in larger pot for easy future transplanting. (Pics. 1&2)
-Cut 2 bottom fan leaves off
-Sprayed leaves and soil with water
Day 3
-noticed tiny white spots on some leaves. Looks like spider mites but probably not since I'm in a grow tent and I couldn't see evidence of mites under the leaves (UPDATE Day 5 I added a video of the white dots)
Day 4
-Didnt get to see plant today. Received first watering to overflow of the smaller cup
Day 8
Finally got to check out the plant. Still on same nutrient plan since I'm concerned still about the white dots that are visible on the video I posted. Still very happy to see the growth on the plant. Plant is now receiving about a third gallon of water every other day-ish with 15 ml/gallon of botanicare kind grow nutrients.
Day 9
Saw evidence of spider mites. Don't know how they got in since I'm in a grow tent. Got a treatment the guy at the hydro store said would work best since I'm in a small er tent. Sprayed leaves heavily with the spider mites killing solution and turned the lights off since the remedy calls for it and fed 8fl oz water with ~1 ml botanicare. Also bought Canna Coco A+B since I was at the store anyway.
Day 10 2-28-18
Evidence of some type of nutrient burn can be seen on some leaves. Possibly a reaction to the anti-spider mite treatment. Any info is welcomed. Opting to keep light on instead of treating for spider mites since I think the spider mites problem is less of a problem than the new discoloration on the leaves
Day 12 3-2-18
HELP!!! Anyone please look at the picture I posted and help me with what I need to do asap. TGIF because maybe I can spend the weekend saving this plant.
Day 13 3-3-18
Removed the cup from around the plant and added some soil. I think it looks healthier than it has and think it's going to make it.
Day 21
Sorry this is my only update this week. Earlier this week I determined that the problem I've been seeing is nute burn. I began watering with regular water or with very little nutrients. Saw some awesome growth this week.
Questions:
Anyone have opinions on if it's stretching too much?
As my first grow I want to throw it into flowering somewhat early to gain some experience for my next grow rapidly. Any opinions on when that should come?
Day 25
No nutrients. Plant has grown a ton and has fully recovered. probably going to put it into flowering this weekend.
Day 28
Lowered light to 8 inches. Topped plant to expost what I hope will be 3 new colas
Day 31
Getting good width since I've topped her. Going to do some LST this weekend I think.
Day 35. Topping has created awesome split up top. Pushed it apart a little and may do some tie down low stress training. Fed about 16 fl oz of water with a couple drops of CANNA Coco A + B.
Day 37
Did some LST with pipe cleaners. Should I lower the light to compensate for the lowering of the plant height?
Day 41
Results from LST are great and I definitely see multiple potential cola sites. Excited as hell. More pictures to come
Day 42
Awesome. Nothing more to say
Day 49
Flipped the plant to a 12/12 schedule today. Next week will be the first of flowering and I'm super excited. Any recommendations on nutrients to use? I have Canna Coco a and b and botanicare CNS17. Also, how much water should I be using in my feedings now that the plant will be growing a lot during the flip towards flowering?
Day 51/ Day 3 Flowering
Plant has definitely grown vertically an inch or two. Awesome to see the stretch as it transfers to the new light schedule.
Day 56/ Day 8 Flowering
Plant has now been on the 12-12 light schedule for a week and has some bud sites. Giving it a big feeding today and trying not to get too ahead of myself.
Day 58/10 Flowering
More of the same, trichomes showing up on cola sites. I have 10-11 main sites with a couple other ones getting their start.
Day 62/14 Flowering
Awesome progress. Bud sites all along multiple branches and some have tops with fairly developed buds. All of it looks really snowy.
Day 65/17 Flowering
Trcihomes are a lot less swollen than before and more numerous. Awesome crystals visible and tons of bud sites showing up all over the plant.
Day 71/26 Flowering
Awesome stretching visible and some are growing very stalky. Adjusted my fan because it used to be blowing above the plant but was too low.
Day 72/27 Flowering
Bought Canna's boost today to hopefully incite some bud swelling. Happy growing.
Day 78/34 Flowering
Happy Monday. Boost has definitely helped the bud sites develop and things are getting close to the end. Raised light a couple inches to compensate for growth. Happy plant.
Day 88/40 Flowering
Looks like there are twice the leaves than last week. Going to take a good picture featuring trichomes to see if any are turning Amber.
Day 91/43 Flowering
She's getting swollen and is coming up on harvest. Would love any advice or words of wisdom. Began to feed normal water since week 14 will probably be the last. Super excited
Had a great time but I'm super bummed it had to end this way. Going to get 3-6 plants next time for my 2 by 4 foot tent. Thank you all so much for the help and definitely let me know any wisdom you have. Mediocre first grow but I think the only way I can go is up from here.
