**** Week 3 Veg - December 26/20 to Jan 1/21 ***** That is two weeks in solo cups and this will be transplant to 1 gal pots week. The girls are doing fine and not always perked up but I think a new home will help change that. They have been happy and noticed that when they were given a stronger feed at the end of last week they responded very well the next day and looked very healthy. Add that I am starting to see some purpling on the stem and I think they are ready for full on veg cycle to kick in. Not a lot of excitement her either Growmies😀 just to early with nothing go on other than making sure they are alive each day 😂😂 So for this week we will give the roots a new home, step up the ppm on veg feeding. Add in microbes to help the root development and keep the environment in the same 82 degrees and humidity in the mid 60's.......I am not supplementing with CO2 so keeping everything a little lower with feed, light, and humidity. They are growing veg well with the blue light and are very happy with the current 28" distance. Will maintain and let them grow into the light more until I see negative signs and then start raising the light with them as they grow. That's what I have to add at the start of the week.......see how the days unfold😀 Little more detail........ Dec 26/20, Day 15 Veg - Dry out day - Let the microbes in the media do their thing and start pushing root growth harder than what has been happening. Dec 27/20, Day 16 Veg - Gave the girls a little splash of the left over nutes from 1 gal girls two days ago to add a little oxygen and they can take the extra microbes and bacteria right now😀 - 100ml with Microbial Mass and Piranha @ 2ml/L = 650ppm and 5.7pH Dec 28/20, Day 17 Veg - 100ml each girl with the full line for this week. No other additives, just the IPP line = 700ppm and 5.7pH - This was also from the big girls.....I am thinking that they are ready for transplant so will give them a little high feed today. Dec 29/20, Day 18 Veg - It is transplant day.......we need to keep this party moving along. She may not have the root mass I am after but I am moving forward. - Prepared 1 gal pots with Mycorrhiza added to the holes. - Gave each girl 500ml watering with full strength IPP line for week 1 veg = 700ppm and 5.8pH - Root mass on these girls was very poor......there were roots.......keep stepping up the microbes with all of the girls!!!!!! Dec 30/20, Day 19 Veg - they were just watered heavier yesterday........dry out day today - think it is a CalMag only feeding tomorrow for all the ETS girls. Dec 31/20, Day 20 Veg - feed day today since it has been a couple of days. - 500ml with CalMag @ 2ml, Gold Storm @ 7ml, Sea Storm @ 5ml, Blackstorm @ 2ml, Vitamin B @ 0.5ml = 525ppm and 5.7pH - keeping the humic and fluvic acids going in, plus Kelp and CalMag👍 - the girls are happy and seeing forward movement everyday, looking for more aggressive though from the girls. Jan 1/21, Day 21 Veg - doing very well......like really well💪 - didn’t push them today and left them alone for watering, pots of course still had some weight and I didn’t expect them to need today. - Optic Folier Overgrow given today. Folier spray to give them just an extra boost since everything is otherwise dialed in👍 Finishing off the week very strong!!!!!! They have been looking very healthy and perky everyday. The roots are a concern and will be taking it easy on the nutrients for another week yet and keep up the microbes and beneficials. Will get them in line......my hope is too keep their time in the 1 gals down to two weeks max......maybe 10 days?? Looking very nice ETS.......you find yourself just staring at them and realize you just waisted 5 minutes😂😂😂

Day36, 37, 38: Seems to be growing a set of leaves per day now. Super growth! Stretching to the top. Day39: I had a hiccup with the camera. For some reason it stopped responding at 04:30 in the morning. I only realized it much later. I still don't really know why, but reseating the data ribbon fixed the issue. Day40: After fixing the camera, I decided to take this view again. The Lady is starting to show some nice growth and this view will show it best. If you look carefully, you'll see that her branches are not green, but rather reddish. Definitely related to genetics :) Everything else is within limits. Plus, the leaves look super healthy. Day41: Here you can see the stem colour better.

2/26 to 3/03 Veg Days 8 to 14 Week 2 Not much to talk about here. They took to the soil as expected with no issues. Feed this week was 2 cups of 6.3ph RO water twice with 4 days between and 4 days after the last feed. Feed plan next week will increase the amounts to 2.5 cups of plain-no-nute water with about 4 days between feeds. I still want to see the water run through, so if I need to use more than 2.5 cups I will. The idea is to water deep and through, but then make them search for more before the next feed, hopefuly spreading the roots out while doing it.

📆 Semana 3 Las plantas continúan el estiramiento con gran intensidad, alcanzando gran parte de su altura final durante esta semana. La dominancia apical mantenida hasta el inicio de floración sigue reflejándose en una estructura vigorosa y bien organizada, con ramas secundarias que se desarrollan con fuerza y ocupan progresivamente todo el espacio disponible bajo la iluminación. Los primeros grupos florales comienzan a definirse con claridad en las puntas de crecimiento, marcando la transición entre el crecimiento explosivo de las primeras semanas y el inicio de la formación de cogollos. Las plantas de mayor tamaño muestran una demanda superior de calcio y magnesio debido a su elevado ritmo metabólico y a la mayor exposición lumínica, realizándose pequeños ajustes para mantener un desarrollo equilibrado. ⚡ EC: 1.6 – 1.7 💧 pH: 6.2 – 6.5 🌡️ Temp: 21°C 🌫️ Humedad: 45–50% 💡 Intensidad: 900–1000 PPFD 🔥 Nota de cultivo: La tercera semana suele marcar el final del gran estiramiento y el comienzo de la verdadera fase de producción floral. Mantener una nutrición estable y corregir rápidamente cualquier demanda adicional de calcio y magnesio ayudará a sostener el vigor de las plantas más desarrolladas y a preparar una floración abundante y homogénea. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Another Defoliation at the end of stretch this week for the Northern and she's now in full bud mode at end of Week 8. 3-4 left I think before the chop and she's just a happy monster. Buds forming nicely on't Chemdawg despite a bit of Nutrient Burn on some of the leaves. Skipped a feed last week and replaced with Molasses only just to help her fight off the excess 2nd Chemdawg looks like she will bud from head to toe a fairly straight forward week for all the girls but started to stink and show their flowers nicely.

Week 5: Transplant Time & Root Power! Oh man, this was one of those weeks! We transplanted all five phenos into bigger pots, and let me tell you, they’re thriving! (Check out the complete video episode for all the details 😉). The girls are looking amazing, all pretty much the same size for now, so I don’t have any favorites yet—but let’s see what the future holds! For photos, I used both my Nikon P900 and Sony A6000, with a bunch of lenses and filters to preserve the true colors—these LEDs are powerful! Current Setup & Conditions This week, they’re still chilling with their sisters in the big tent, but in about a week, they’ll be moving into the TrolMaster ecosystem for even better environmental control. Watering: pH 6.06, EC 0.96 Temperature: A bit cold , but it is what it is. We’re facing some freezing outdoor temps (as shown last week in the frosty veggie garden pics!), yet these Runtz are holding strong like true champions. 💪❄️ Nutrition: Still on the Aptus Clean Program, with: Regulator System Clean RO Water Conditioner All-in-One Liquid Root Development: The Real MVP! Let’s go deep on roots! The mycorrhizae in the Pro-Mix soil has been working its magic, and I’m still boosting them further with a touch of Aptus Holland Mycor Mix. The root development on this transplant was insane—super white, healthy, and ready to explode with growth. What Are Mycorrhizae? The word “mycorrhiza” comes from Greek: • Myco- meaning fungus • Rhiza- meaning root Mycorrhizae are a type of beneficial fungi that form a symbiotic (mutually beneficial) relationship with plant roots. These fungi extend far beyond the root zone, creating an underground network that helps plants absorb water, nutrients, and improve overall health. This is not a single species but rather a whole category of fungi, mainly divided into: 1. Ectomycorrhizae – Live on the outside of plant roots, forming a sheath around them. Common in trees like pines and oaks. 2. Endomycorrhizae (Arbuscular Mycorrhizae, AMF) – The most beneficial for most crops and cannabis. These penetrate root cells, forming structures inside the roots that exchange nutrients. Where Are Mycorrhizae Found in Nature? Mycorrhizae naturally occur in forests, grasslands, and undisturbed soils worldwide. They play a crucial role in maintaining ecosystem balance by helping plants access nutrients from the soil. In a natural environment, plants are constantly forming relationships with these fungi. However, in modern agriculture, excessive tilling, chemical fertilizers, and fungicides have reduced their populations, making supplementation necessary in many cases. How Do Mycorrhizae Work? Once mycorrhizae colonize a plant’s roots, they start forming an underground fungal network called the mycelium. This network extends the plant’s reach into the soil, acting as a second root system. Benefits of Mycorrhizae: ✅ Enhanced Nutrient Uptake – Mycorrhizae help plants absorb phosphorus, nitrogen, and micronutrients that would otherwise be unavailable. ✅ Improved Water Absorption – The fungal network can reach deeper into the soil than roots alone, helping plants survive drought conditions. ✅ Stronger, Healthier Roots – They promote thicker, more robust root systems, reducing transplant shock. ✅ Better Soil Structure – They produce glomalin, a protein that improves soil aggregation and helps retain moisture. ✅ Natural Pest & Disease Resistance – Healthy plants with strong mycorrhizal relationships tend to be more resistant to soil-borne pathogens. How Mycorrhizae Help in Cannabis & Gardening In controlled growing environments, using mycorrhizae is a game-changer. Since cannabis relies heavily on phosphorus, the enhanced nutrient uptake provided by mycorrhizae is especially beneficial. Best ways to apply mycorrhizae: • At transplant – Dust roots with mycorrhizae powder or mix into soil. • As a soil drench – Some liquid formulations allow fungi to colonize even after planting. • Mix into your growing medium – Using pre-amended soil like Pro-Mix HP Mycorrhizae ensures roots have early access. Pro Tip: Mycorrhizae need living roots to survive! Avoid using synthetic fungicides or excessive chemical fertilizers, as they can kill the fungi. Think of mycorrhizae as a natural root booster. They’ve been around for hundreds of millions of years, helping plants thrive in all conditions. By using them in cultivation, you’re mimicking nature, ensuring your plants grow stronger, healthier, and more resilient. When used correctly, mycorrhizae can increase yields, improve plant health, and reduce the need for synthetic inputs—making them a must-have for any serious grower! Can’t wait to see how they’ll look in the next transplant! I made a few changes to my improvised photo studio, including a pink background for now—because why not? Let’s keep things fun and full of color! 🌸📸 Massive gratitude to all our sponsors and of course, a special shoutout to Zamnesia, Plagron, and Grow Diaries for making this amazing cup happen. 🙌 And to the community—followers, supporters, lovers, haters—I love you all! ❤️ Let’s keep pushing forward, learning, and making this grow legendary!

So the only thing I wish couldve been different about this grow is that I wish she didnt stutter/stall with the flowering in the begining. She shot out pistils but stalled for like 2 weeks or so. So if she wouldve been flowering for the full time, I thibk I couldve gotten better product(I'm still impressed) but I feel like I couldve done something better with her. 7/26 Day 2 of drying. Everything's still wet. The room is 75 °F with 50%humidity 7/27 day 3 of drying. Everything felt crispy and dense. Humidity was 40% and temp was 75F 7/29 weighed and put into jars with stems the weight was 51.2 grams and without stems 45.5 grams.

☘️22/11 - La semilla se hidrato en agua durante 24hs. ☘️23/11 - La puse a germinar en papel húmedo. ☘️25/11 - Ya germino y aproximadamente media 3cm. Ese mismo dia la coloque en un vaso chico con un poco de tierra. En una semana ya la traspaso en una maceta de 10L y ya queda en esa maceta hasta el final. ☘️27/11 - Broto el plantin. Se encuentra bien por el momento. Por lo que noto viene rápido su desarrollo. ☘️Voy a dejarla 2 semanas en crecimiento con luz 18/6. Una vez que este en flora lo cambio a 12/12. ☘️El banco de semillas comenta que en indoor todo su desarrollo es de 75/80 días. ☘️El banco aclara: una variedad para cultivadores experimentados ya que, si se producen diferentes factores de estrés en el cultivo, es una variedad que puede dar alguna inflorescencia masculina en un 2% de los ejemplares, por lo tanto es un dato a tener en cuenta dada su descendencia americana. ☘️Los productos que voy a estar utilizando son los de advance nutrients en toda su etapa. ☘️Con el ph voy arrancar en 5.8 hasta llegar a 6.4. ☘️En estos días estaré publicando mas imágenes de como viene. ☘️🇦🇷Podes seguirme en Instagram como @bruweed_arg para mas contenido.

🚂 Cash Express – Pheno B Week 10 | Let This Beautiful Girl Shine 🌿🌸💡 Welcome back to another week of the 8×8 Adventure! 💚🌱 And once again... Cash Express Pheno B is simply doing her thing. No drama. No complaints. No unnecessary changes. Just growing. Beautifully. At her own rhythm. And honestly, the more I look at this girl, the more I appreciate what she's becoming. She's still carrying that deep, lush green through her leaves, and the flowering sites are becoming increasingly defined. The buds are developing beautifully. The hairs are becoming more abundant. The structure is becoming easier to read. And she's starting to look like exactly what she has been telling us she wanted to become all along. A beautiful, vigorous Cash Express phenotype with a personality entirely her own. So this week... we're not here to reinvent her. We're here to appreciate her. We're here to look at what she's doing. And we're definitely going to give her the spotlight she deserves. 🚂🌿🌸🔥 🌱 Week 10 – Still Doing Her Thing Cash Express Pheno B is now around 93 cm tall. And compared with her sister, that difference continues to be one of the interesting parts of this diary. Pheno A has her own compact character. Pheno B chose a different route. She's taller. She's more extended. She's occupying her space differently. But what's really important is that she isn't simply getting taller for the sake of getting taller. She's building. She's developing. She's creating flowering structure throughout that architecture. And now, at Week 10, that structure is becoming increasingly beautiful. She's not rushing. She's not trying to keep up with anybody else in the room. She's simply continuing along her own path. And that's something I've learned to appreciate enormously during this adventure. The plant sets the rhythm. We observe. We support. And we let her show us what she's capable of. 🌿 That Deep, Lush Green One of the first things that catches my attention this week is the foliage. That deep, lush green is absolutely beautiful. There's something very satisfying about seeing a plant carrying that much healthy, vibrant foliage while simultaneously developing her flowers. The leaves aren't just background decoration. They're the working machinery of the plant. They're capturing light. They're processing photons. They're driving photosynthesis. And ultimately, they're helping provide the energy that supports everything we're seeing happen throughout the plant. So when I look at this beautiful green canopy, I'm not just seeing colour. I'm seeing a plant with an active photosynthetic engine. And Cash Express Pheno B is certainly keeping hers running. 🌿💚 💡 Photons – The Invisible Part of the Story This week I really want to spend some time talking about something we can't actually see. Photons. We can see the LEDs. We can see the leaves. We can see the flowers. But we can't see the individual photons moving through the room. And yet they're involved in almost everything we're documenting. Every day, the Future of Grow Black Series LEDs are creating our artificial sun. Photons leave those LEDs. They travel through the room. They reach the canopy. And when they encounter the leaves, that light becomes usable energy through photosynthesis. That's the invisible part of this entire story. When we're looking at Cash Express and admiring her green leaves, her developing flowers and her structure... we're really looking at the visible result of an enormous number of tiny interactions between the plant and the light. And that's pretty damn fascinating. 💡🌿 ☀️ Future of Grow – Bringing the Sun Indoors The Future of Grow LEDs continue to provide the primary illumination for the room. And one of the things I love about this 8×8 experiment is that we're putting twelve very different plants underneath the same artificial sun. The photons don't know which plant they're hitting. 😂 They simply arrive. The genetics decide what happens next. And that's where things become interesting. One phenotype stretches. Another stays compact. One builds a certain flower structure. Another develops differently. One plant seems to want to occupy every available centimetre. Another is perfectly happy taking her time. Same room. Same photons. Different answers. Cash Express Pheno B has clearly chosen her own answer. And I'm very happy with what she's showing us. 💡 Photons Don't Only Belong to the Top Canopy There's another part of the lighting strategy that becomes increasingly interesting as the plants develop. A flowering plant is a three-dimensional object. It's not just a flat canopy underneath a lamp. There are leaves and flowers at different heights. There are branches running through different levels. There are inner areas. Outer areas. Upper areas. Lower areas. And that's where our Lumiflora lighting becomes particularly valuable. We're bringing additional light into parts of the canopy that naturally don't receive the same exposure as the uppermost leaves. So we're not thinking only about: "How much light is hitting the top?" We're also thinking about: "Where else can useful photons go?" And that's a fascinating way to look at the room. Light is moving through the garden. Leaves are intercepting it. Some photons are absorbed. Some pass deeper into the canopy. Some reach lower foliage and flowers. And the entire structure becomes a constantly changing landscape of light. That's why canopy architecture matters so much. We're not just growing plants. We're managing a three-dimensional relationship between plants, photons and space. 💡🌿🌸 🌸 The Buds Are Starting to Tell Their Story And then... of course... we get to the flowers. This is where Cash Express Pheno B is really becoming beautiful. The buds are developing a much more recognizable structure now. Those hairs are becoming increasingly obvious. They're emerging from the flowers in abundance, giving the buds that beautiful textured appearance. And the more I look at the photographs, the more I can see the flower formation becoming defined. We're moving further away from those early flowering points and increasingly toward recognizable bud structures. There's still plenty of development ahead. But we're getting there. Slowly. Beautifully. And very much in her own style. 🌸🔥 ? Those Beautiful Hairs I have to give the pistils their own little moment this week. Because they're beautiful. The amount of fresh hairs developing throughout the flowers really catches the eye. And this is one of those characteristics that makes photographing her so enjoyable. You can see them from a distance. But get the camera closer... and suddenly there's a completely different level of detail. Little hairs emerging from the developing flowers. Individual structures becoming more defined. The flowers becoming more substantial underneath them. It's one of those moments where you realize: She's actually building something here. And she's doing it beautifully. 🌿 No Need to Fight Her Personality This girl has already told us who she is. She's vigorous. She's lush. She's taller than her sister. She's developing a different architecture. And she's moving at her own pace. So why would I try to make her something else? That's one of the lessons I keep coming back to throughout this project. Growing isn't always about imposing a plan on the plant. Sometimes it's about creating a good framework... and then listening. Cash Express Pheno B doesn't need to become Pheno A. She doesn't need to match another plant. She doesn't need to develop according to somebody else's timeline. She's writing her own story. And I'm here to document it. 📸🌿 💨 The Environment – Keeping Things Steady We're continuing to keep the room as stable as possible. Current conditions are approximately: 🌡️ Day temperature: 29.9°C 🌙 Night temperature: 25°C 💧 RH: 60% ⚗️ pH: 6.0 ⚡ EC: ~2.0 mS/cm 💨 CO₂: ~639 ppm 💦 Watering: ~1.3 L/plant/24h 🌡️ Solution temperature: 25°C 🌡️ Substrate temperature: 26°C 💡 Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L 📏 Height: ~93 cm Summer continues to make temperature management interesting. 😂☀️ One day wants to be warmer. The next wants to be slightly cooler. But we're doing our best to keep the important parameters consistent and, most importantly, avoid unnecessary fluctuations. We're not chasing perfection. We're chasing stability. And the plants seem quite happy with that approach. ⚗️ Nutrition – Keep Doing What Works The nutritional programme remains essentially unchanged. We're continuing with: Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.2 ml/L Plagron Power Buds – 1 ml/L Plagron Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L Plagron Pure Zym – 1 ml/L pH adjustment as required The solution remains around pH 6.0 and approximately 2.0 mS/cm EC. And again... why complicate something that isn't asking to be complicated? She's green. She's developing. She's flowering. She's progressing. So we're allowing consistency to remain one of our biggest tools. 🌸 Growing Beautifully at Her Own Rhythm I think this is probably the phrase that best describes Cash Express Pheno B right now. Her own rhythm. She's not necessarily trying to be the fastest plant in the room. She's not trying to finish before everyone else. She's simply continuing to develop. And that makes the comparison between the twelve plants even more interesting. Because if every plant behaved identically, there wouldn't be much of a phenotype story to tell. Instead, we have twelve personalities. Twelve structures. Twelve relationships with the same environment. And twelve different ways of turning photons into plants. That's the real adventure. 📸 Behind the Lens – More to Discover Every Week The photographs this week really reward getting close. The wide shots show her overall structure. The canopy. The height. The distribution of flowering sites. But the close-ups tell another story. The hairs. The developing flower structure. The textures. The tiny details that become increasingly obvious as flowering progresses. This is why I love documenting the plants individually. A photograph doesn't just preserve what happened. When you build a series over many weeks, it becomes a visual timeline. You can look backward and see exactly how far the plant has travelled. And Cash Express Pheno B has certainly travelled a long way. 💡 The Garden Is Basically a Photon Playground One of the things I find fascinating about the 8×8 room is that we're essentially creating a little controlled ecosystem where light is constantly moving through the garden. The Future of Grow LEDs provide the main source. Lumiflora adds another dimension. The leaves intercept photons. The canopy changes. The plants grow into the available space. And as they grow, they change the way the light moves. So the lighting environment isn't completely static. The plants themselves become part of the lighting system. A leaf can intercept light that would otherwise reach a flower. Another leaf may reflect or transmit some light deeper into the canopy. A branch can change the shadow underneath it. And then we have additional lighting helping illuminate some of those less-exposed areas. It's a constantly evolving relationship. And that's one of the reasons I'm enjoying documenting this run so much. We're not just watching plants grow. We're watching an entire environment evolve with them. 🌿💡🌸 🔮 Looking Ahead For now, the plan remains beautifully simple. Keep observing. Keep the environment steady. Keep the irrigation consistent. Keep nutrition consistent. Keep the photons coming. And let Cash Express Pheno B continue doing what she does. Over the next week, I'll be watching: 🌸 Continued bud formation ? Further pistil development 💎 Increasing resin production 🌿 Healthy, lush foliage 💡 How the developing canopy interacts with the light 💨 Good airflow throughout the structure 📈 Increasing flower density and definition No need to force anything. She's already on her way. 💭 Final Thoughts – Let's Give Her the Spotlight Cash Express Pheno B is becoming one of those plants that gets more interesting every time I look at her. She's tall. She's lush. She's carrying that beautiful deep green. Her buds are developing. Her hairs are becoming beautifully defined. And her structure is increasingly telling us exactly what kind of phenotype she is. She's different from her sister. She's different from the other girls. And that's exactly why she deserves her own diary. The photons are doing their part. The Future of Grow LEDs are providing the artificial sun. Lumiflora is helping us bring that light deeper into the canopy. The environment is being kept as stable as summer allows. The nutrition remains consistent. And Cash Express? She's taking everything we've given her... and turning it into her story. Slowly. Beautifully. Naturally. And I wouldn't change that. So this week, there's no dramatic intervention. No big announcement. No attempt to force her into another shape. Just appreciation. Because sometimes the best thing you can do for a beautiful plant is simply step back... look at her... and say: "Keep doing exactly what you're doing." 🚂🌿🌸💡🔥 Cash Express Pheno B... this spotlight is yours. Let's keep those photons flying. Let's keep watching those flowers develop. And let's see where your own little story takes us next. 🙏 Thank You As always, a huge thank you to everyone following the 8×8 Adventure. Thank you to Zamnesia for giving us the opportunity to explore these genetics and, most importantly, to see just how differently individual phenotypes can express themselves. Thank you to Plagron for supporting the garden with the growing media and nutrition throughout this journey. Thank you to Future of Grow for providing the Black Series LEDs powering our artificial sun and filling this room with the photons these girls need to do their thing. 💡🌱 And a special thank you to Lumiflora for helping us bring additional light into the inner and lower parts of the canopy and allowing us to explore just how much more interesting lighting becomes when we stop thinking only about the top of the plant. And of course... thank you to everyone following along on GrowDiaries. Every comment. Every question. Every observation. Every person stopping by to see how the girls are doing. You're all part of this adventure. Twelve plants. One room. One environment. One artificial sun. And twelve completely different stories. And this particular story? It's Cash Express Pheno B. She's beautiful. She's lush. She's developing. She's doing it her own way. So let's give her what she deserves. The spotlight. 🌸💡 Until next week... Growers Love, my friends, and happy growing! 🌱💚 See you next week in the 8×8 jungle. 🌿🚂🔥

D46 - The first day in the third week of flower. Not much to report. I'm pretty much just letting her go at this point, considering how stunted she is. I'm interested in what the result will be but I'm not really willing to spend much time or energy on her. D48 - I'm starting to see more discolored leaves on her, and I suspect that she has thrips considering that I had (have?) them in my other tent. I can't spray her with anything as she is in flower, and I already have a bag with predatory mites on her, so I've done what I can really can. In any case, she is more of a project at this point. The good news is that I think I have discovered why she is stunted. I read online about transplanting when they mentioned that it was important not to transplant when the plant is too dry, as it can cause the root structure to fall apart and thus shock your plant. Well, that is precisely what happened. During the transplant, my girl was dry and lost some earth, which disturbed the roots. 100% user error, as I suspected since this was my first time transplanting. Usually, I plant directly in the final container. I need more training (obviously), so I have started a new grow where I plan to transplant the girls a couple of times. D52 - The end of yet another week. She is getting frosty but is of course still stunted and tiny lol.
