🌱 Grow Diary - SLH: Day 42 🚀 📊 Observations & Adjustments 📈 Comparison with Day 41: The 6th node reached the ideal stage for topping, and the first topping was successfully performed today. This will encourage lateral growth and a more structured canopy. 🌱 Growth Progress: After the topping, the plant is expected to redirect energy to the lower branches, promoting a more robust structure. 💧 Irrigation Update: A 300ml watering was applied evenly, ensuring proper hydration without over-saturating the soil. The automated watering system continues to be tested for consistency. 🔆 Light: PPFD remains at 550 µmol/m²/s, supporting post-topping recovery and vegetative development. 📷 Photo Perspectives SLH - Day 42 - Top View SLH - Day 42 - Side View SLH - Day 42 - Close-up of Topping Cut ✂️ Topping Performed The main apex was removed at the 6th node, officially initiating the first topping. This will help develop multiple main colas and improve light distribution across the canopy. 📌 Next Steps ⚠️ Monitor the plant’s response to topping and adjust environmental conditions if needed. 💧 Continue observing automated irrigation efficiency to maintain stable soil moisture. 🌿 Track lateral growth to ensure a balanced canopy and guide future training. SLH handled the topping well and received a uniform 300ml watering for optimal hydration! 🚀🌱 🌱 Grow Diary - SLH: Day 41 🚀 📊 Observations & Adjustments 📈 Comparison with Day 38: Noticeable increase in leaf size and internodal spacing, indicating steady and vigorous growth. 🌱 Development: The 6th node is almost fully formed, approaching the ideal moment for topping. 💧 Irrigation Automation: Automated watering system is being tested to ensure consistent soil moisture. 🔆 Light: PPFD maintained at 550 µmol/m²/s, promoting healthy growth without signs of stretching. 📌 Next Steps ⚠️ Monitor the 6th node's development to time the topping correctly. 💧 Evaluate the efficiency of the irrigation system and adjust as needed. 🌿 Track the plant’s response to environmental adjustments to ensure balanced growth. SLH continues to progress well, showing stable growth and responding positively to adjustments! 🚀🌿 🌱 Grow Diary - SLH: Day 38 🚀 📊 Observations & Adjustments 📈 Growth: The plant continues to develop well, showing a balanced structure. 🌱 Development: Leaves are expanding, and the stem appears to be strengthening. 💧 Soil Moisture: The soil retains adequate moisture, so watering was postponed. 🔆 Light: PPFD set to 550 µmol/m²/s to ensure efficient absorption without stretching. 📌 Next Steps ⚠️ Monitor the plant’s response to the watering interval and adjust as needed. 🌿 Track stem strengthening to prevent the need for additional support. 🌱 Plan the first light nutritional boost (Juicy Root & BioBizz Haven) in the coming days. The plant is progressing well, growing healthy and responding to adjustments. Tomorrow will be another day to monitor its evolution! 🚀🌿 📅 Growth Schedule (UPDATE!) 📌 Phase | Week | Start of the Week | End of the Week 🌱 Vegetative | 1 | 09/01/2025 | 15/01/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 2 | 16/01/2025 | 22/01/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 3 | 23/01/2025 | 29/01/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 4 | 30/01/2025 | 05/02/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 5 | 06/02/2025 | 12/02/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 6 | 09/02/2025 | 15/02/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 7 | 16/02/2025 | 22/02/2025 - Current 🌱 Vegetative | 8 | 23/02/2025 | 01/03/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 9 | 02/03/2025 | 08/03/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 10 | 09/03/2025 | 15/03/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 11 | 16/03/2025 | 22/03/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 12 | 23/03/2025 | 29/03/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 13 | 30/03/2025 | 05/04/2025 🌱 Vegetative | 14 | 06/04/2025 | 12/04/2025 🌸 Flowering | 1 | 13/04/2025 | 19/04/2025 🌸 Flowering | 2 | 20/04/2025 | 26/04/2025 🌸 Flowering | 3 | 27/04/2025 | 03/05/2025 🌸 Flowering | 4 | 04/05/2025 | 10/05/2025 🌸 Flowering | 5 | 11/05/2025 | 17/05/2025 🌸 Flowering | 6 | 18/05/2025 | 24/05/2025 🌸 Flowering | 7 | 25/05/2025 | 31/05/2025 🌸 Flowering | 8 | 01/06/2025 | 07/06/2025 🌸 Flowering | 9 | 08/06/2025 | 14/06/2025 💦 Flush | 10 | 15/06/2025 | 21/06/2025 ✂️ Harvest | 11 | 22/06/2025 | 28/06/2025
