It’s been a while! I keep meaning to update but keep forgetting to take photos. Im thinking maybe 2 more weeks? What do yall think? I stunted her during veg so she’s a little late, but I don’t think that’s too much of an issue.

24 days ago

She’s looking beautiful. I’m so happy

Haven’t updated in a while

Flowering, she’s doing really good. I’m still TORTURING my plant (LST) to expose the new growth and make sure everything gets as much light as possible.

2 months ago

Not much to say, just doing LST to maximize the growth of certain areas, like moving fan leaves out of the way, or bending stems down.

2 months ago

The pre-flowers are growing! Still doing LST to expose growth nodes.

2 months ago

Day 5 of flower. The pre-flowers are becoming more noticeable. I’ve been doing some LST to expose growth nodes. She’s starting to smell a little bit, I like it.

2 months ago

Did some defoliation today, I took off the oldest fan leaves. Unfortunately I broke off another two growth nodes 😭😭, but it will be okay. I will only be doing LST after watering from now on, it really reduces the risk of breaking anything.

2 months ago

Day 3 of flower. I did some leaf tucking in place of defoliating to expose some growth nodes. She’s doing really good so far.

2 months ago

Day 2 of flower, I gave her 6 cups of water today. I’m going to give her some Neem Oil today aswell.

2 months ago

First day of flower 12/12 light cycle. I’ve been doing some LST to expose growth nodes and such. I think I will water her tomorrow.

2 months ago

Okay so since I lowered the humidity from about 65-70F avg to 50-60F avg I’ve noticed that the whole spider mite problem has gotten better. I got the Neem oil spray today but since she looked so good, I decided to hold off of it for now. I just set my light timer to 12/12, however I noticed that she had already had been flowering (last pic). Not an issue for me just curious as to why it happened without the 12/12 light schedule.

2 months ago

Day 40! I did some more LST on her to try and get as many growth nodes exposed as possible, but I think I’m going to flip her this week. The Neem Oil spray I ordered is getting here tomorrow, so I’ll probably flip on Thursday.

2 months ago

Probably one of her last days in veg, I’m gonna wait until I receive the Neem Oil spray I ordered to get rid of my spider mite issue. My tent is only 4ft tall, and it has even less grow room due to the ventilaton system and light. So in order to avoid any issues with the height, I’m gonna go ahead and flip her real soon.

3 months ago

I didn’t water today but I went through and sprayed down every single leaf, including the undersides. Sometimes I notice tiny little things on the leaves and under them, the water knocks em off. If I see the problem worsen, I will go ahead and buy some Spinosad soap. Her oldest leaves are getting really long.

3 months ago

I done did it again, I broke off another branch 😭 but hey, you live and you learn I guess. I think maybe perhaps I’ll give her water tomorrow? I’m starting to really notice a scent developing, it smells nice.

3 months ago

I took off her first set of 7-point leaves, im gonna keep them. I redid some of the wires to tie down the longer growth nodes. Im honestly just trying to expose as many growth nodes to the light as possible, I have no specific plan at this point. I added some soil to the top because I was seeing some roots popping out.

3 months ago

I went ahead and poked some holes into the sides of the pot to make LST easier. I watered her with 8 cups of water today. I did my best to try and expose all the growth tips and such, but I think I’m gonna try to go with somewhat of a spiral.

3 months ago

She’s been doing really well since the break. Today I finally got the Wyze cam stand I ordered for the grow tent, it’s so much more convenient to have the stand instead of that cardboard box taking up all the room in the tent. I think I’m going to give her water tomorrow.

3 months ago

I think she’s made a full comeback since the whole amputation thing, I’m gonna stay with the LST, I think I won’t snap another branch as long as I place the wire in the right spot. I don’t know if it’s something to do with the plant itself or if somehow my light is so crooked that one side is getting significantly less light, but there’s almost always one side that grows considerably smaller than the other side. I was thinking it could have something to do with the airflow or the humidifier, but I don’t think that’s what it is.

3 months ago

I gave her 6 cups of water today, and sprayed down her leaves with water. I don’t know why but I feel like the leaves end up looking better if you spray em down every once in a while. She’s shedding the last of her cotyledon leaves, it’s kinda cool to see them just waste away. I’m going to keep with the LST, but I’m def much more careful about it now.

3 months ago

I ended up having to remove the branch (didn’t remove much, it was kinda hanging on by a thread). I waited until the next day from when the break happened to see if the branch would bounce back, but it wasn’t looking too good. Other than that though, she’s doing just fine. She’s just an amputee now 😭. I put some wire on her good side in order to give those growth nodes some more light, she barely has any left 😩

3 months ago

Okay so I didn’t post about this when it happened because I was kind of upset at myself for doing it, but I was trying to tie down the two new growth nodes as training so that it could be flat. To be honest it was 100% my fault because I shouldn’t have been putting the wire where I was putting it. Anyways I thought it would be okay, but the break was just too bad, and the branch ended up dying off. She’s doing fine now but I just wouldn’t have topped her if I knew something like this was going to happen 😭

3 months ago

Day 12 of being in 5gal. I gave her 1L with an additional 400ml, aswell as a little spray down with the spray bottle. I defoliated a little bit, the leaves were starting to get in the way a little bit. Also I was gonna need to do it at one point or another. Shes gaining her scent, at first it was just like “green” but now she’s giving little hints of weed haha. I’m planning on mainlining her, so I’ll probably be topping a 2nd time here soon once she grows 4 new mains on each.

3 months ago

Day 11 of being in 5gal. Her growth tips are really starting to come in, and she’s doing really well. I gave her some water through a spray bottle, but before this her leaves were looking so good! It’s just the water weighing them down in the pictures. Very little leaf tip curling, I love it.

3 months ago

Day 10 of being in 5gal! Smell is still there when I open the tent but it’s not stinking up my room anymore. I ordered a Wyze V3 a few days ago and received it today: I also ordered a Wyze V3 camera holder for grow tents! I didn’t even know they made those. The stand hasn’t gotten here yet, so I don’t have the best shot of her, but I will when I get the stand. Excited to see her grow through a Timelapse!

3 months ago

Day 9 of being in 5gal. I gave her 1L of water just now and got a little bit of runoff. I didn’t want to go overboard with the water so I went with 1L instead of 1.25L. Smell isn’t permeating outside the tent, but as soon as you open it, the smell just hits you in the face. I’m glad my room doesn’t smell like horse manure anymore though.

3 months ago

Day 8 of being in 5gal. Nothing to note really, I removed all the growth tips besides the two at the top, she seems to be doing okay. I think I’m gonna water her tomorrow, probably give her about 1.25 L. Can’t wait for the growth tips to start growing!

3 months ago

Day 7 of being in 5gal. Smell is slowly getting better! I topped her yesterday and started some LST, I think I’m gonna do the Mainlining or the Manifold method. Today I gave her about 40oz of water through the spray bottle, I’m still getting used to watering her in the 5 gal pot. I also cut off all the other growth tips besides the two main ones at the top.

3 months ago

Day 6 of being in 5gal. Smell is getting a little better, or maybe I’m just getting used to it. She’s been doing really good, I gave her about 2 cups and some more water with the spray bottle, probably around 10-20oz. I ordered a Wyze v3 camera in order to make a grow Timelapse, and to top it off I found a wyze grow tent holder. Update: I topped her and started LST. I felt bad cutting off all her new growth 😭

3 months ago

Day 5 of being in 5gal. Again, the smell is still very pungent inside the grow tent, it’s hard to even inspect her because I can’t stand it for too long, it even lingers on you. But, she seems happy and healthy, so I think I will top her once this new set of leaves come in (4 nodes) and start LST training. I will give her about a cup (500ml) of water tomorrow.

3 months ago

Day 4 of being in 5gal. The stench is still very strong 😭 I can’t even have the tent open/take pictures for too long because it smells sooo fucking bad. But she seems to be liking it, so I guess it’s worth it. Her new leaves are looking really good, it makes me happy.

3 months ago

Day 3 of being in 5gal. The stench is slowly going away outside the tent, but inside smells so bad 😭 she seems to be happy though, I just watered her and sprayed her down to get all the DE off from her older leaves. Hopefully she perks up a bit with the watering, I don’t know if it’s just me but she seems a little limp. The humidity has been pretty stable the last few days and I think she’s enjoying it.

3 months ago

Day 2 of being in the 5 gal pot. It still smells so fucking bad 😭 next time I’ll remember to prepare the soil outside n let it sit out for a few days to minimize the stench, the tent smells like literal horse shit right now. She’s loving it though, great for her, not so great for my nostrils 😩. I used a tiny bit of the plant ties to support one of the stems so the leaf wouldn’t be at risk of touching the soil. I’ve had the duct fan going, and I have a carbon filter, but it just sticks to everything. Definitely keep this in mind if you’re planning to use the Nature’s Living Soil Concentrate, because it will stink everything up. It even makes the regular soil smell like shit. On a better note, the ends of her leaves aren’t as curled downward as they were before. I think I’m gonna spray her down to get all the diatomaceous earth off when watering time comes up.

3 months ago

Okay, she’s in her final container. The Nature’s Living Soil Concentrate smells sooooo fucking bad (which is why there are no close up pics) I measured out 1lb of the stuff and filled up the remaining ⅓ with my FoxFarms HF and gave it a good mix, then topped the rest off with regular HF. I should have prepared the soil outside because holy shit, it smells so bad. I know that it’s super good for the plants but be warned, that shit will stink up your house and everything it comes in contact with. Anyways, I bought a spray bottle today and I plan to spray her down once the soil airs out a little bit in order to get the diatomaceous earth off her leaves n stuff. Gave prob about 26oz of water in a circle around her. Transplant was a little stressful but I made it through 😅

3 months ago

I got the diatomaceous earth I ordered this morning and gave a thorough application to her soil and leaves. I have gnats and possibly thrips. I think I need to transplant her really soon.

3 months ago

I went in and checked on her and gave her about 30ml of distilled water. Yesterday I realized that I may have a thrip and fungus gnat problem. I’ve already got some diatomaceous earth coming tomorrow. I for sure have gnats, this is the second time I’ve seen a tiny little fly in the grow tent. If I have either thrips or gnats, the diatomaceous earth should do the trick. The second set of leaves seem to have slight wrinkles on the surface? I think I’m starting to get the hang of watering her, making sure to let the soil dry out between waterings. I think I may transplant her once the third set of leaves have fully come in. Let me know if you guys know anything about the tiny wrinkles my on the leaves, I wasn’t able to find anything concrete online.

3 months ago

She’s looking slightly better with the curling of the leaf edges from yesterday. I’ve noticed that the second set of leaves have these light streaks, I circled them in the pictures. I was thinking it could be one of those little bugs that makes a trail inside the leaf but I don’t think that’s what it is. I hope it’s nothing to worry about. I think I will be transplanting soon, perhaps when her 3rd set of leaves really come in. Any advice or comments on the streaks is greatly appreciated, I really couldn’t find anything that looked similar to what mine look like online. Other than that though, she’s growing fast and her stem is getting stronger.

3 months ago

She’s growing fast, however I’m a little concerned about the slight clawing the new leaves are doing. Could it be my humidity? I’m not feeding her any nutes so I’m guessing it can’t be Nitrogen toxicity? Please help, I want to address the problem as soon as I can so that it doesn’t cause more issues down the line. Aside from that, her 3rd set of leaves are coming in at the top ! I just gave her about 30ml of distilled water. I also moved the fan to be pointing at the wall in the grow tent in case the clawing was due to the wind.

3 months ago

Light is still at about 16”. The first set of leaves has some edges curling downward, I’m thinking it’s either my watering or the humidity. Sometimes it gets way high or way low, mostly when I’m away and can’t check on it. I’m still having to prop her up because she’s having a hard time staying straight up, hopefully the light adjustment will fix this. Otherwise, she’s doing good! The first set of fan leaves are growing super fast, and I can see the third set coming in aswell.

3 months ago

Took pictures right before I gave her water. I gave about 25ml and I could tell the soil was pretty dry since it took a sec for all the water to sink into it. I’ve noticed some leaf curling on the edges, but hopefully it’ll go away with the bettering water practices, slightly elevated light, and less of a breeze.

3 months ago

Just came home and checked on her, the new leaves are growing pretty fast. Through recommendation I lowered my light to about 16” above the canopy. Hopefully this will help with her leggy-ness. Her first set of real leaves are getting pretty close to the edge of the solo cup, do yall think I should transplant her soon?

3 months ago

Used the stick to support the stem a tiny bit, she’s just leaning slightly. I watered last night and she got all droopy, but then looked like this just now. Hopefully we’ll be transplanting into the 5 gal here soon.

3 months ago

Second set of leaves coming in :) Checked moisture level using a soil moisture meter and I think she may need water tomorrow.

3 months ago

New set of leaves coming in, I think she’ll be ready to water tomorrow. Every time I water, her leaves droop a bit, but then bounce back. Am I overwatering?

3 months ago

this was her this morning, I was a little worried about stretching so I lowered the light to about 22”.

4 months ago

I had an old indoor camera going unused so I decided to place it in the tent for easier monitoring. The new leaf growth is more visible now, she’s doing good so far :) on the photos it looks like the leaves have little yellow splotches but they’re not actually there. I think she’s ready to be watered tomorrow.

4 months ago

Just gave her 25ml of water, 5ml more than yesterday. I checked on her soil today and it was dry (not all the way). The leaves seem to get bigger every day 🥺. I found out that I have to position the humidifier a certain way or else the circulation fan will blow all of it away, it wouldn’t get past 40% humidity. I also ordered a heating pad and received it today to help with rooting. During the dark hours it can drop to below 60F, and I just want to make sure she doesn’t get too cold.

4 months ago

I’m loving taking these close up shots of the seedling, she looks so beautiful. Dark period lasts from 11am-5pm, so I just now went in and checked on her. The growth of the “real” leaves is more noticeable today !

4 months ago

Got a humidifier, it’s nice not having to worry about the cloth rags drying up. It’s not very noticeable but her leaves have grown a bit. I watered a bit, not sure how much, but i didn’t get any runoff.

4 months ago

Seedling has completely opened up. Nighttime will begin @ 11 am, 18 hours light, 6 hours dark. I set the daytime cycle to turn on during the coldest times in the day, so it’s 5pm-11am. Will get better picture once nighttime is over. Grow light currently at 24” from canopy. Temp. ~70F - 77F, Humidity ~40-59%. Currently using 4 wet cloth towels on tent floor for humidity.

4 months ago

Watered her when I got home from work. I’m using cloth towels to increase humidity atm. I ordered a Govee humidifier so that I can keep it a little more consistent. She had her first night today, was a little worried about the temp but she was okay :) I tried to gently move the soil around the seedling because she was leaning, seems to have worked.
