Day 58 of flower. Harvest day!

Day 52 of Flower. Lots of thinning out of fan leaves and foliage. I could harvest these at any time now, but I don’t want to rush it because I’m being impatient. I might wait another week for these girls.

Day 46 of flower. One week away from early harvest window.not feeding any more nutrients, just flushing from here.

Day 36 of flower. Buds are noticeably fatter now. We’re probably about three or four weeks away from harvest. These buds are probably going to fatten up nicely in that time.

Day 32 of flower. Still a few weeks before we’re ready to start thinking about harvest. I set up some new ventilation and got the cat to a new part of the room so I have to pick off less cat hair. Buds are growing but not too heavy for the plant yet.

Day 23 of flower. Buds are growing. We’re about to go out of town for about five days, they will probably need to be watered a little bit just one time. I’m concerned about ventilation and humidity since I normally need to open the tent every day to keep them healthy but I don’t want to throw off the light cycle. I’ll probably just turn them towards the wall to stop too much light getting in.

Day 7 of flower. Just applied SCROG net for first time. Stretch hasn’t been too insane but we’re starting to see first pistils coming out at bud sites.

Day 1 of Flower. Just moved over to the new house and switched to 12:12.

Day: 68
Watered and fed a small amount. Defoliated some of the lower yellowing growth as well. Could switch to flower at any time but the timing with the move will be awkward.

📀Golden Ratio 📀 A small question: do you switch to 12/12 before sex shows or after you determined it’s female and ? Technically you can veggie a plant for a very long time, how long you keep veggie growth for ??? 🙏 Thanks
dale2216 Id suggest repotting before flip Rule of thumb Pot size should be close to canopy circumference
Day: 66
Moving in early June but could flip these into flower whenever. Trying to keep them flat so they just bush out during the stretch

📀Golden Ratio 📀 Looks bushy already! Love the lights and photos under it 🤩
Day: 54
Trained and watered today. She’s looking super bushy and I’m just starting to pluck some of the lower leaves that are overlapping or resting on the dirt. I think we might be just a couple weeks away from switching to flowering.

Day: 47
Continuing training, spreading new growth out as it comes in. Growth underneath the top canopy is actually pretty thick too. Once we have a more solid canopy we will definitely need to do some defoliation. Good response since last feeding on Saturday, two days ago

zayyy How am I doing?
Day: 43
Big bush coming in. Watered again today and retrained some of the tops hoping to spread the canopy across the entire pot but it might be more difficult than I thought. We’ll see what kind of horizontal growth we can manage.
4 years ago
Day: 41
Trained down a bunch of tops exposing some of the smaller ones. Lots of growth, healthy plant so far. Gave fresh water today too and she’s responding well on all counts.
4 years ago
Day: 40
One day after first feeding and growth is visible. Three solid tops lined up but we will definitely be needing more. I’ll start training these other tops as soon as possible to get them stretching laterally and creating new tops.
4 years ago
Day: 39
Fed for the first time today and retrained the top of the plant. I’ll start the second tops soon.
4 years ago
Day: 37
A couple of new tops forming! Getting ready for first feeding sometime this weekend with a really light veg nutrient (FloraNova Grow 450 ppm/6.5 ph). I did some light retraining on the top node to expose those other tops to more light. Hopefully they’ll start blowing up soon and we can start training those too.
4 years ago
Day: 35
Responding well to training. Still waiting on more lateral growth to tie down additional nodes and really spread the canopy wide
4 years ago
Day: 34
Just started training, pulling her to one side and will be slowly fanning out other nodes as they grow. The top has already turned upward so I don’t think she’s too stressed from it.

Day: 33
Obvious new growth. I’ll start training tomorrow.

Day: 31
Looks healthy after transplant. I want to start training soon but I’ll wait until I see obvious growth after transplant to avoid overly stressing her.
4 years ago
Day: 30
Just transplanted and watered her in. Surprisingly, I did not see any visible roots at all when I did it but the soil stayed together pretty well. Maybe that means I’ll get a shorter transplant shock period since the roots weren’t directly agitated or exposed to sunlight. I’ll keep an eye on her for the next few days. Hopefully in a week or so I’ll be able to start training and give the first feeding.

Watered today. Fantastic growth coming along, horizontal canopy nearly covers the width of the solo cup and vertical growth has picked up significantly. Can’t yet see any white root tips from the drainage holes so will transplant sometime this weekend, maybe even tomorrow.

Day: 27
Watered today. Plant is healthy, sturdy, and upright. Looking forward to transplant sooner than later.

Day: 26
Seems like she’s breaking through with vertical growth. Not seeing any roots at the bottom so I’ll play it by ear with transplant. Maybe this weekend will be the right time to throw her in a bigger pot.

Day: 25
Watered today. Lots of new growth, she should be ready for transplant within a few days. Could probably get away with doing it today even, but I’ll give the roots some more time.

Day: 23
She looks healthy with a lot of new nodes forming. Stem is starting to get stronger and looks almost a little woody. Will water tomorrow.

Watering today. New leaves looking good. Stay the course.

Day: 20
Seems like growth is coming in faster. Soil is staying wet a bit longer too.

Day: 19
Real fan leaves coming in now. New node growth looks promising, but still seems very slow overall. Aiming to transplant within this week.
4 years ago
Day: 18
Clusters of new nodes coming in tight. Looking for growth to speed up over the next couple of weeks. Hopefully I can transplant within 7-10 days.

Day: 17
Watered yesterday. Stem is still thin despite fan.

Day: 16
Steady as she goes. Dealing with weird conditions last night, humidity as low as 17% and heat up to 91F. Things look healthy now but we’ll be careful.

Continued growth. Being careful about watering and hopefully she’ll keep on going.

Day: 14
More new nodes coming in right on top of each other. Very close node spacing, but new growth looks lush, green, and healthy.
4 years ago
Day: 13
New growth coming in wide and short, doesn’t seem overly productive so far. Plant is tilting to the side and you can see some root system at the base. I’m hoping she will plump and be ready for transplant within another week or so.

Day: 12
New growth, happy green leaves. Looks like she’s starting to pick up the pace a bit and we’re out of the slump. Still no feeding just misting with PH 6.5 water. Humidity hovers around 30-35%, would like to bring the up but it just barely hits 40% even when I run the humidifier nonstop. Temps are good, still can get a tad high. Fluctuates between 80-85F.

Day: 11
With the soil mostly dried out, she’s looking happy. Looks like multiple nodes coming in at once and cotyledons are yellowing. Will water again today and give her plenty of time to dry out before watering again
4 years ago
Day: 10
After removing humidity bag, letting the soil dry out, and adding back a few hours of dark time, we’re finally starting to see some new growth! Cotyledon are yellowing and new nodes are forming. Soil feels pretty dry but I’ll just give it some mist and then water tomorrow

Day: 9
Second set of true leaves are starting to come in but they look warped or unhealthy. I can’t tell exactly why, but the stem is also pretty flimsy I’m going to remove the humidity bag and keep the humidifier on indefinitely. The fan will be on starting today too. Hopefully this will bulk up the stem and root system and encourage solid growth into veg.

Day: 8
A bit if noticeable growth today but soil is still damp. Too wet, I should let it dry out a bit. I’ll remove the humidity bag for a few hours today.
4 years ago
Day: 7
It looks like the true leaves are drooping down a bit today. Still no noticeable growth in last 24 hours. It looks like overwatering might be the issue now so I’ll be letting this girl dry out, without watering until at least the weekend (3-4 days).

Day: 6
Almost a week since seedling broke ground but growth seems very slow. I have only been misting it so far without really watering all the way through, I’ve never gotten any runoff from the little solo cup it’s in so I decided to let it dry out yesterday and give it a thorough watering today. Hopefully this saturates the lower soil and I can give it a rest for a few days and let it dry out a bit.

lemonq What are your temps like? It looks to be leds that you're using, try to hit 22-28°c during seedling stage, with those leds looks a bit cold, I use cfls alongside leds to keep temps high and extra lumens dont hurt. Happy growing!
CannaCasual Yeah I’ve only got a budget LED in there, but temps range from 80-85 F (26-29C). I thought maybe the lights weren’t strong enough or something but it’s not stretching so idk. Thanks for your input!
Day: 5
Slow growing. A bit more height, a bit fatter true leaves. It’s possible I’ve been overwatering I’ll give a chance for the soil to dry out before watering again.

She’s looking up, only a centimeter or two of growth over the last 24 hours. I use a plastic bag as a humidity dome, but not 100% sure when I’ll remove it and let the seedling adjust to normal tent RH. Also currently on 24 hour light to avoid abnormal stretching like I had on a previous grow, not sure yet when I’ll switch to 18/6.

Day: 2
Seedling just broke ground. Started measuring humidity and temp and learned that humidity is low (35%) and it occasionally gets too hot (85-90F)

lemonq I use a mister and a transparent drinking glass as a humidity dome or you can buy the proper ones on amazon, most twice a day and keeps my humidity and temps perfect :
Stonedfaced Put clear clastic film over if, throw on a fan and get some air in and you’ll be fine
supermike831 Thanks for the tips, I use a plastic bag as a humidity dome and only remove it when I’m checking up on it. Not sure when I should get rid of the bag and let it adjust to regular humidity.
