D15. We're starting the third week, and neither of the girls looks all that great. The first girl is more prominent but has twisted leaves and even one burnt leaf. On the other hand, the second girl is considerably smaller and has interveinal chlorosis. I think it is pretty clear that neither likes the new top-dressing. It's my first time using castings from this local worm farm, but I doubt they are at fault. Instead, I think I f*cked up with a top-dressing too "hot" for such small plants. We'll see what happens... ------------------------------ D17. The first girl is definitely looking better, and I "believe" the second one also does. There's still hope! I wouldn't be concerned if these were photos, but with autos, any hiccups during veg can be devastating. ------------------------------ D21. We're at the end of the third week, and things are looking up. At least for the first girl, she looks better daily, and her new leaves aren't twisted. On the other hand, the second one has been smaller from day one, and she still looks like a runt with pale leaves. There isn't anything to report since I have simply left them alone to do their thing. DLI set to 25. -----------------------------
