Glad to see things are back on track. This one is looking better than the last one too. Keep it up!!

Thanks for the support! Yeah, last time was rough...


Day 6:

So, no post for day 5 because nothing really happened. I now have both plants into larger pots, having transplanted the second one yesterday morning. It seems to be lagging behind in growth - maybe it's still a bit stressed from the transplant. It isn't showing any unhealthy signs though.

Take a look at the pictures of day 6! They were taken this morning, where usually I take pics in the evening, so they may be a bit smaller, but still.

so far so good. yeah, my plants didn't really show that much growth at that size for a few days, which worried me too, but once the next set of leaves starts coming in it'll really take off.

Yeah, I can see things picking up already. Well, at least I can see noticeable growth everyday!


Day 7:

Eve is finally starting to grow a bit faster, so hopefully that trend continues.

Hazel is growing fast now, or at least fast compared to my newbie standards!

Today I noticed some green moss (algae) on the top of both pots. Not very much, but it was there. My humidity is a bit high, and the temps are around 70 deg F. I wrapped the top of the pot in tinfoil, dull side up, and I'll leave it like that for 24-48 hours to kill off whatever algae is there. Does that make sense anyone? Lol... I read it on the forum and I hope it works.

Anyways, here are some pictures, in order - Eve, Hazel, Algae, Pots with Foil.

You could use some hydrogen peroxide to kill the algae. I hear works pretty well.

Thanks for the advice! I actually read around the forums, and did just that after work today.

Day 8:

Well, I took off the foil today. I hope 24 hours of darkness was at least semi-effective. I just couldn't stand having all this foil around the girls, so I took it off!

I mixed a weak hydrogen peroxide solution in preparation to water Hazel (the bigger one), but upon further inspection, I don't really think she needs watering yet. Five days ago I thoroughly watered that 5 gallon pot, and I'm pretty sure there's a good amount of water left - Hazel sure as hell isn't drinking it all, and I don't think that much is evaporating. So - I'll wait on the watering.

I did, however, spray a slightly higher concentrated H2O2 (peroxide) solution on the top of the soil, to hopefully finish the algae off. I'll keep a watchful eye on it.

Eve is still going slow... She is getting larger though! Maybe the transplant hurt her somehow and she's all confused, haha... Anyways, since I've got limited space, and I am ideally vegging these until the last week of May (assuming they don't get TOO big), I may do a circular LST on Eve. If it works, great, and if not, oh well, I was limited on space anyways. What do you guys think?


I was initially worried that Hazel's fan leaves were drooping a tiny bit (hence the side shot), so I took a picture of it. My other hypothesis is that, since there was foil right below, she was getting light from below too, and didn't feel the need to stand quite at "attention", haha...

Day 9:

Things are going well. Hazel is really taking off I think! I don't have much else to say.

Eve is still slow, but is still growing every day, so I'm not complaining! I noticed an ever so faint brown spot on her largest (and closest to CFL) fan leaf. I know the soil is pH-ed okay, and the watering shouldn't be an issue. So, I think maybe it's the CFL being too close. I moved it about 1.5 inches away, and I'll see what happens.

Pics!

Day 10:

Hazel is my favourite - end of story... haha

Eve's growth continues, at a slightly faster pace. Her brown spot became more defined, but I think it's fine now after I moved the light away, since the leaf perked up, so she was obviously scared from the light. Eve is my guinea pig though, so as long as she isn't dead, I'm happy.

Hazel is turning on the turbo chargers, but ever so slightly. She's just gearing up for full out vegging. I moved the light away just a bit because I feared it was too close for the next 24 hours of growth.

Pictures!

1. Eve (notice the brown spot on the far leaf)
2. Hazel (oohhh I love her)
3. Hazel's stem. Notice the secondary growth (I think) in its infancy.


Until tomorrow

Day 11:

Growth as usual. Eve is growing slowly, and Hazel is continuing her nice and fast growth.

Now, I transplanted Hazel (big one) into that 5 gallon pot like 8 days ago. I haven't watered her since I thoroughly watered the original soil. I haven't seen any signs of droopiness or anything from Hazel though.

Perhaps I should water with a tiny bit of H2O2 just to prevent a possible overwatering?

Anyways - pics:

1. Both plants. Eve is left, Hazel is right (and much bigger!)
2. Eve's brown spot seems to be drying out. No biggie, since her new growth is fine - I am almost sure this was heat stress from the too close 42W CFL.
3. Hazel, with a poker chip for size comparison (it was all I had around at the time!)
4. Hazel again!



If anyone reads this, I'd appreciate a bit of insight into when I should water. Like, the soil still feels semi-moist when I jab my finger down a couple inches, but I also am worried about letting the water just sit there the soil. Would some fresh water + tiny bit of H2O2 help, or am I just worrying too much? The soil is Lambert's Potting Soil, which I don't believe is that organic.


Until tomorrow!

Day 13:

No photos or anything for day 12 - it was just growth as usual.

Today I gave Hazel a thorough watering, and I tied her stem up a bit. I did this because my orientation of the bucket for the first 3-4 days made the stem originally grow out at an angle, and I wanted to correct the problem.

Eve continues to grow slowly, and I'm caring less and less about her every day. Is there an orphanage for not-wanted plants anymore? I wish I could just fedex this super lemon haze to an owner willing to put up with her, haha...

Anyways, pics for today:

1. Eve & Hazel
2. Hazel's stem - I tried to make it straight a bit more, but now the leaves are on a bit of an angle. I think they will straighten themselves out over 24 hours under the light.
3. Hazel shot. End to end, it's about 8 inches, maybe a bit less (100% guess just there, no real idea).
