We’ve had a very cold week, about 6 d.celcius at night, luckily she seemed to have conquered! [ I think ] Apparently she’s a small plant so she’s just going to grow as is hopefully till the end. Technically also part of my first grow, but to see the growth from seedling is a great feeling! Patience is the name of the game I think. Also started to feed worm tea & Dirty Inc. Phylosphere via foliar spray. Any advice welcome! Not much to say at this point I believe.

Apart from the spot on the leaf she’s growing fine I guess. Weather has been getting better during the day but still cold at night 7-10 d.celcius. I considered topping her but since this is technically part of my first grow I’m going to let her grow all natural. Any advice always welcome!

We’ve had some nice weather this week. So far so good. I just hope to get her through flowering, as she is supposed to be a very small plant. Other than that the bottom leaves that may be dying I think she should be okay? For now it’s just sticking to water + worm tea & a drop of Black Molasses.

SO SO SO SO SAD! Will I lose my plant due to those dead leaves? I presumed it might be nutrient burn so I gave her water only. I am really concerned as to how this will affect her and whether she’ll make it.

This week I’ve decided to defoliate a bit, I just hope she doesn’t die bcs of it. Had to get rid of some yellowing bottom leaves as well as big, sun blocking fan leaves! Cloudy weather all week but coming week some nice sunny days are expected again! She has a nice pungent spicy smell!

4 days of cloudy weather, hoping for more sun this week! So far so good, very tiny plant, probably just genetics? Flowering pretty fast!

I took a sample off the bud to see how it’ll look dried, so the plan is to cut the plant off Sunday! All I wanted is something to smoke and at this point I’m happy that seems to be the reality after the drying&curing process! Amazing feel! Some powdery mildew starting but shouldn’t be a problem if I cut soon!

Topping is not recommended for autos. Lst works very well. She looks great. How much direct sunlight is she getting from the balcony?

@RSAFirstOrganicGrow, she should grow very well. Good luck.

@Habosabin, thanks! I am a beginner so I’m currently trying LST on my other plant, I think I’m going to let this girl grow all naturally as she is supposed to be a very short plant? I can then compare the difference between the 2 for the next grow. I’m in SA, so spring should’ve started 1 Sept but its been on/off with full sunny days. She is currently getting sun [ on a sunny day ] from 08:30am - 17:30pm; on average, with cloudy and rainy days, I’d say 6-8hrs of direct sun. However this month onwards should be extra 2hrs and a lot less to none cloudy/rainy days giving her a full 10hrs daily. [ balcony facing north so its close to perfect ]
