🌱 Quick Recap – If You’ve Been Following…
As shared in the germination report, we originally started this grow with three seeds. But due to a faulty, uneven heat mat, we lost all three. We came back with one final White Widow seed, and she delivered. Germinated in the Cannakan with Regulator + Start Booster, she popped and took off with energy. A solo survivor with the heart of a champion.

🌿 This Week’s Focus – Transplant Time & Root Support
This week was all about giving her the right home to thrive.
We made the decision to transplant her straight into the final 11-liter Zamnesia fabric pot, no upsizing, no stress. A direct move into her forever container, where she’ll grow, flower, and finish.
Why:
• Eliminate transplant shock later
• Encourage early root development in full volume
• Let the microbial life settle and build stability from day one
• One chance, one queen—she deserves the best
⸻
Soil Mix & Nutrient Support
The soil was prepped with a focused super soil recipe using select Aptus Holland amendments:
Transplant Mix:
• Super soil base
• Aptus Mycor-Mix – to inoculate roots with mycorrhizae
• Aptus Micro-Mix – for beneficial bacteria and biological root balance
• Aptus Substrate Buffer Powder – to stabilize pH and nutrient interactions
We mixed everything thoroughly, ensuring full even coverage before planting.

💧 Gentle Top Watering – No Rush, No Runoff
After transplant, we switched to gentle top watering, not bottom watering as previously stated.
Each watering is done slowly and with care, just enough to moisten the top third of the pot and encourage roots to reach downward on their own. We’re not flooding the soil or chasing runoff, we’re simply letting the plant guide the rhythm.
Feeding this week:
• Aptus Regulator (1ml/L) – for resilience, structure, and efficiency
• Aptus Start Booster (1ml/L) – to support the roots and microbial life during this critical phase

👀 Expectations: Realistic & Rooted
Now under a consistent 11/13 light cycle, our girl is on a unique path, flowering from seed.
What to Expect:
• Strong, compact development
• Early floral signs within weeks
• Efficient energy use and tight internodes
• A plant that’s focused from the start
What Not to Expect:
• Explosive veg growth
• Wide bushy branching
• Standard “veg-then-bloom” timelines
She’s on her own custom cycle, and we’re documenting everything, first-hand.

🌸 Final Words – Entry #2
This week was a turning point.
We gave her space, gave her microbes, gave her nutrients—and let her take root, both in the pot and in this story.
This isn’t just about growing weed, it’s about growing intentionally, with care, patience, and honesty.
White Widow is settling in, and the best is yet to come.
Thanks for walking this journey with us. More updates soon 💚
