Been mostly misting, but gave her a bit of a watering when the pot seemed a little too light. Mango Sherbet’s growth since redirecting her energy from the roots has been straight up explosive, quickly making up for lost time in terms of size and development. That first set of secondary leaves will remain on the small side as a side effect of my transplants, but all the other growth from here on out should be big and beautiful.
Wish there was more to report or do right now, but it’s just a mist and wait game at this point lol. The fox farm soil I’m using is high in nutrients for the first few weeks, and by the time she gets hungry it’ll be a good time to transfer her to the 5 gallon pot. The nutrients from the added dirt should buy me another week of regular watering, then I’ll start gradually add more veg phase plant food to make up for the decreasing nutrient levels in the soil.

Nothing too new or crazy to report other than to confirm Mango Sherbet is still doing solid in the growth department. Since I’m looking in on the plant twice a day to mist her it can be easy to forget how big a difference there is just compared to the photos taken for last week’s entry. I’ll probably wait another two weeks before putting her in the next pot size so I'm not jostling her around too much too often lol.

Looking gorgeous and healthy, there are zero current issues for Mango Sherbet as of posting today.
She may not be quite as developed as one would expect with this being the end of week 4 since germination, but considering the growth she displayed after her late start I’m feeling pretty excited to see what week 5 of growth will produce, and luckily since she's a photoperiod plant, having a week of delayed growth isn't an issue.
