I was able to start only from cutting as the seeds of this species are nowhere to be found, my configuration is not very professional, quite the opposite. But putting all the effort and dedication into it, I'm sure I can get good results even with just a CFL and a 40x40 box. For the vegetative phase I decided not to give him fertilizers as the soil I use is prefertilized (biobizz all mix)

Normally I adjust this way to decant: when I see that the leaf surface is higher than that of the pot, it's time, and it works, now the baby will go from 3.5 liters to 8

What can I say, the baby has recovered in such a short time from the transfer ... it leaves me speechless, especially because after the transfer she is developing many internodes and the branches are lengthening twice!

Here I had two choices, either to continue growing the plant a little longer and wait for the perfect moment to decant or, as in this case, since the plant had a very strong vegetative growth I did not want to risk slowing it down, in fact after having decanted in a 20L pot (next week) the plant responded even better and literally exploded !!

This is the week in which the baby passed, after having recovered from the racking at 12/12, these are the last days of vegetative that she has exploited to the maximum to develop the last internodes and root well in the new pot

crucial week to defoliate and to predict and improve the stretch of the plant for flowering. it took a week to develop the pistils, which as you can see now are clearly visible, I started fertilizing with canna bloom stimulator

Here the buds begin to grow slowly, the branches stiffen and the plant lengthens (even if I am avoiding the stretch as much as possible because unfortunately the growbox I have available does not allow me to do anything else, from this week in addition to giving bloom accellerator i am also adding a bloom of the biobizz. i also gave a pass of lollipopping to remove the buds that will not develop

Finally here are some photos made well, with just 30 days of vegetative and 23 days of flowering, this is what the plant looks like, I am very satisfied and I can't wait for these buds to grow, you start to smell very good, on the fruity, lemon and hazelnut, very particular, according to the manufacturer there are about 40 days to go, I can't wait!
