This plant almost completely died after some bad luck with spider mites and nute burn while I was away for a while. That's why it has been in veg for so long. This and a small autoflower that's probably not even worth keeping will be my only harvest for a while. It has now completely recovered and I will be documenting the grow from this point. I have limited materials and I'm learning step by step so sorry for not including info like humidity and PPM yet. So week 8: I came back from a vacation to find out that I had forgotten to top/fim a few branches. These shot in the air while the others were recovering. I will now top the large branches while allowing the smaller ones to catch up. It suddenly got very hot where I live which is unusual this time of the year so I didn't turn on the AC. temps must have reached almost 40°C in the room the tent is in for the past few days... Still, plant seems to have done just fine.

I noticed what I think was yellow leaf spot. I've treated the plant twice and I hope this won't be giving me any problems further down. The canopy is now evened out and I'm switching to flower this week.

Treated for yellow leaf spot one more time and removed all leaves that were affected. Also preventively treated against insects with a bio spray before flowers really start showing. I really hope the yellow leaf spot will just leave my new growth alone from now on. The plant is definitely growing fast though.

I haven't been home in a while so I was afraid of what I would see. But the plant is doing great! Seeing some fungus gnats so I'll be more careful to water a little every few days instead of one big watering with more days in between. Flowers seem to be forming nicely even with my cheap growlight. Did a little shoot without the blurple for once ;)

The plant is still forming nicely. There are some fan leaves showing a few issues but I haven't been able to figure out the issue. Having a pH meter would probably help here but I haven't gotten to it yet.

Still quite a few issues on the fan leaves. I finally bought a pH meter and the pH was too high so I lowered it to about 6,5 and it's back at around 7 now which should be fine. The problem persists so it's likely still septoria. Will give my environment a proper cleaning before my next grow but air circulation is good and humidity low so there's not much else I can do for this grow.

@heizen, thank you but this grow actually completely went downhill after this point. What I thought was disease was more likely pH issues as my meter was giving wrong readings. I've started a new grow where I kept a flowering clone of this plant tho :)

Candy Kush Express is exactly what my momma would've wanted me to have.
