Seilasaovarios I'm working with organic fertilizers, started with lentil rooting agent, today I began doing foliar sprays and I'm trying to use a technique I learned to add calcium naturally to the water, alternating between regular watering with rainwater and calcified water.
I will possibly change the pots next week.
I learned this technique for calcifying water from my grandma; she used to cook eggs and used the same water for the roots, and there are several scientific points to this. The eggshell has great sources of calcium, and when boiled, this mineral is released and fixed in the water, becoming an extremely nutritious tonic.
Here's an organic tip for anyone dealing with low calcium levels.
I'm growing Rue and Lavender together; they repel insects and mask the smell of cannabis, great for tricking that nosy neighbor 😈.

Seilasaovarios Hey guys, I’ve been absent due to some little problems and my laptop isn’t cooperating, which discouraged me from writing, but I’m back.
I had an insane battle in the 4th and 5th week when I decided to switch to a bigger pot and that’s when the shit hit the fan. During those days, the temperature fluctuated a lot during the day and dropped significantly at night, along with some terrible humidity. This resulted in electricity issues and poor pest control; I was attacked by aphids and those little flies, I can't remember the name of that crap 😡. I ended up overdoing it with the neem oil and messed things up fkdkdjjdjddj.

Seilasaovarios In the fifth week, I decided to do something; I pruned the affected leaves to cut the infestation for good, stopped watering, and increased ventilation, letting the genetics work on their own.

Seilasaovarios The temperature finally increased, and I started to notice that they were improving, gaining vigor, and the leaf characteristics began to stand out.

Seilasaovarios Hey, this week they were already well recovered and growing nicely, don't panic, sometimes too much care can be harmful, be patient and let the plants do their thing peacefully.

Seilasaovarios Hey evil crew, super happy at the start of this week, the plants are full of vigor and developing well. I decided to apply some LST on the bigger one to try to make it more bushy, while I decided to prune the node on the smaller one that was starting to grow to encourage new branches and then do some LST later on.
Both plants have visible differences due to the issues each one faced in the early stages of life, based on that I decided to apply the techniques I would use. The big one had more growth in the main stem, which made the ties easier. The small one didn't distribute much energy to the stem, but rather in the proliferation of new shoots, so I opted to prune the main node that was at the beginning of development to encourage the growth of the new shoots. You can see what I did clearly in the photos.
Thanks for your attention, see you later.
