16.4.25:
As mentioned last week I top dressed with a mix of canna terra plus dry amendments.
The soil is very waterlogged and, as a result, has started to grow some mould/mildew on the top layer.
I decided to scrape off as much mould as I could, then redress by mixing in some coco and perlite.
This should aerate the soil, and prevent the water retention becoming excessive.

I hope everyone had a great 420!
HulkBerry has grown significantly since last week. She is now exceeding the perimeter of the 8 Gallon pot.
The leaves are looking good to me. It's not too dark, but still luscious in appearance.
I have barely given any water, as unfortunately I had overwatered when I top dressed.
The top dress was not my usual substrate and, unfortunately, ended up growing mould on the surface.
I removed the top soil to take away the mould. Then I replaced it with 2 Inches of Canna coco and perlite 60/40%. I did not add any amendments to this.
Nutrients; Cal-Mag amino acids and Ecothrive Biosys.
I watered 2 litres yesterday, and today, I am going to LST for the 1st time. It needs to be done ASAP now, before she begins to flower.
I'm just aiming to open her up and keep the tops at an even height.
I'm happy with this plant her structure is lovely, and uniform. Which I hope to maintain.
Thanks for checking out my diary and hanging out 🍃✌️💚😊🌱
