Hey everyone! New diary and new babies! I placed the seeds in a water cup and it worked perfectly. Everything was very fast! Since they are autos I didn't put them in a cup and placed them str8 into their final container to avoid stressing them aaaand I kinda regret that 😂 I didn't give them enough light when they sprouted and they stretched out a biiiiit too much to my taste. Now I need to fix this issue and try to it without stressing them which I believe will be an problem. Perhaps I can let them be? I'll write down a question to see if anyone can help me. Oh, and Red Roots are mycorrhizas! And Brown Sugar... is sugar! I used it to feed the fungi and to make the plants stronger! 💪 Take care you all! I hope you'll love the photos and see you all soon! 😄

The girls are already in their final containers and they are only 1 week old. Any tips what should I do to fix this issue and avoid stressing them out while I do it? Perhaps I should just use a guide? Add more soil? (it's already near to the top tho) or should just ignore it?

Looks like you didn't pack the soil all too good, judging by how it's sinking where you've watered. So you should be able to add more to the pot eventually. - Topping them and adding fans will make them strengthen the stem, it's not the end of the world.. ^_^

Week 2, here we go and 3 mayor things happened! 1.- Something like a spider web appeared on top of the soil and after googling a bit I think the name of that thing is called "cobweb mold". I don't know if its dangerous or not (I doubt it) as something quite similar happened in one of my previous grows but I solved it by removing the "infected soil" and then I added some new soil after it. I also increased the airflow of the tent and nothing has showed up again! So that's good I suppose! 😃 2.- It felt they weren't growing as fast as they could and I suppose that's because wasn't giving my babies enough water. The first time I fed them I gave them about 250cc but that was clearly not enough so for the 2nd time I gave them more (about 750cc) and it seems they liked that! 😀 They've been speeding thing up after that! 3.- Something appeared on my baby that's on the back. It looks like... over fertilization? Or something burnt her? No idea but right now she's growing well, so I'm glad. Besides what I mentioned everything looks good and that makes me feel quite happy! The girls are getting stronger and they look happy! 😁 Thanks for reading! See you all next week! 👋

Hey everyone! Week 3 of my babies and they look beautiful! 💪 So far I've noticed these issues: - The girl on the back seems to be growing slightly slower compared to one closer to the camera. Maybe it's the lights? - That same girl grew with one of the leaves broken or something like that, which looks interesting! But, what could've caused it? I checked the leaves and there was nothing! - The girl on the front had one leaf tip slightly broken! Perhaps some slight over fertilization or something? - Both girls have some small patches with different colors in one of their leaves. But besides what I mentioned, everything looks well! I also took a timelapse this week! Anyway, see you all next week with the next update! 😍

Week 4! We're getting close to flower and so far everything looks well! This is what happened in this week: - I did some LST! 😁 - I increased the amount of nutrients and it seems the girls like it! - The plant on the front is growing more than the one on the back, even when both might look about the same in the timelapse. I also think they need more water. It feels (I could be wrong here) the roots are not reaching the bottom of the pot and I fear they might get root-bound because of that. So next week I'll saturate the pot with water and I'll probably try to tuck some of the fan leaves, the lower branches need some more light. 👌 Thanks for reading and see you all next week! 😃

Hey hey everyone! 😀👋 This is week 5! My girls are growing strong and very, very bushy. I gave them a good dose of water this week and it seems they really enjoyed that! Besides that theses are the things I noticed: - The girl on the back is bushier than the one on the front and her leaves are smaller in comparison (with the exception of some leaves). - The leaves might be a little dark in color, but I could also be wrong hah. Perhaps I'm feeding them too much fertilizers? - The stems are getting very, very thick. I like that! - I've tucked so much this week... and some leaves are curling weirdly. Probably that's a sign my efforts are paying off? 😅 - I also reinforced the LST at the end of the week. I need those thick stems to bend a little more! Anyway, that's pretty it for this week! I took tons of photos and I hope you'll all enjoy them! 😍 See you all next week!

Week 6 and my babies are still in veg 😥 but I'm sure next week they will finally flip! 😁 Now, what can I say about the girl that's on the back? - She has some really long leaves and those stems are thin if I compare them to other plants I've grown. - Some of her leaves look too shiny, dunno why! - The internodes are really short, which is good and she's VERY bushy. Perhaps she went thru some kind of deficiency and that's why she looks like that? Or maybe it's something else? No idea! The other hand, the other baby: - She's developing really well. Ahead of her sister and I'm sure she'll be the first one to flip! I mean, it looks like she's already developing some pre-flowers! :D - She's a little taller compared to her sister - The internodes are short and the leaves are huge! They are also slightly darker compared to her sister. I reinforced the LST on both of my girls and I both tucked the leaves (a lot) and defoliated the plants just a little. I need to control that jungle! Anyway, that's all for now. Stay safe and I hope you'll all enjoy the photos and video I took! 😃

Greetings everyone! Week 7 of these two ladies is here aaaand they are finally in flower! 😀 It took them a little more than what I wanted but hey, it's done! 🙌 My only big issue this week was that it was hot compared to last one, which might have affected my girls somehow but besides that? Not much. Besides that this is what I did and I noticed: - The baby on the back has a weird growth rate! She's very, VERY bushy and tons of her leaves have long stems. Dunno why! - I reinforced the LST. Some stems were a bit too close to each other and that could be potentially dangerous! - Tucked and trimmed a lot this week. Too much foliage! Specially on the baby that's on the back. Hopefully she'll respond well to it! - The "healthy" girl has some weird looking leaves. Her leaves have tons of "points" 😱 Anyway, that's all for now. I hope you'll all enjoy what you see and see you all next week! <3

Hey everyone! It's week 2 of flower and this week was a surprise! The girl on the back, the one that has the "long" stem leaves and I didn't have high hopes started to grow a lot and develop quite fast! I'm quite impressed by her! Flowers are also starting to be way more developed this week, which is absolutely amazing I'd say and looks very pretty! This week was very uneventful besides that! And since they are growing so well I decided to increase the amount of nutrients! 😍 I also trimmed a lot of leaves from both babies speciallyy the one from the back) and played with the LST a bit more. Both of them were quite bushy (specially the one in the back) and I hope this won't affect them negatively! Probably not but we never know. Anyway, that's all for now! I hope you'll enjoy the photos and timelapse I took! 👋

Hey everyone! 👋 It's week 9 and the girls have really impressed me! 😵 The plant that's on the back of the tent (or the one closer to the timelapse video) was the most troubled one of the two (long leave stems, tons of branches, their leaves weren't very strong) but this week something happened and she stretched a lot, it was shocking! Perhaps she was stunned or something was affecting her? No idea but she even responded really well to the defoliation I did! (and to be clear, I did a lot of defoliation 😝). Her sister on the other hand was just developing well and it's clear she's a little more ahead. One important thing that I realized this week (and I completely forgot) is that these plants are autos and their flowering phase is shorter compared to the ones from a normal feminized plant. So regardless of which plant might be ahead of the other I decided to start feeding both of them (not full dose!) with my NP nutrients. Hopefully both will receive them well! And that's all for now. See you all in the next update! 💪
