Exactly 1 week from topping

Okay it's been exactly one week since I topped this girl. This is my first grow so it was scary I thought I was gonna harm her but she's shooting up nicely, still not 100% sure that the seed leafs (leafs that come out with cotyledons) are supposed to do this but they are the only ones that have done it so far. Also I switched to 12/12 this past Saturday. Any advice on what to do a now? I've only used a small amount of Alaska fish fertilizer so far. Just wanted to put up an update and get some feed back.

Looks fine bruh. Next time though try using the correct tools of the trade. A chainsaw or weedwhacker is appropriate when topping.





Yes I know I just set myself up to be called a tool.

I was looking at this picture at work and seen something odd so I came home to check on it and there's two little mushrooms growing out of my soil? Is this good bad beneficial at all. I've read alot about growing but I've never seen anything that says anything about mushrooms appearing????

Good things are happening in your soil, just don't get it too wet and do let it dry out between waterings.

I only water once a week if the soil looks to be getting dry around the plant itself so getting it too wet isn't a concern. Its dead now but I see where others grew and died now that I look. Scared the sh*t out of me tho lol

Also to answer the question. Is the bottom leafs that you see there yellowing and dying, are they supposed to do that? Everything seems fine to me just want to be sure

You should have let it get bigger......you're looking at a very low yield from that baby.

Honestly I'm not looking for a huge yield tho itd be nice. This plant is a bag seed that was found and planted for learning purposes mainly. My grow space is pretty limited as of right now so i went ahead and switched at 1 foot tall to hopefully finish at 3-4 feet tall. Gathering information that it's supposed to double or maybe even triple size during flowering stage

Since you topped it, which is good, it won't get too much taller or larger in that pot. It will fill out some and maybe double in overall size. I typically get 1 oz per gallon of soil..

Now you need to check for signs of sex. Hopefully it's female. If it's male just chuck it asap. If pollen sacks open in your grow space the pollen stays viable for quite a while.

I've looked and looked and don't see any signs of sex yet. That's why I haven't went all out and got expensive nutes and all the extra cuz it's just for me to learn slowly by slowly. Didn't wanna do all that then it be a male and waste time and money ya know

I have about 4-4 1/2 gallons of soil so that would be worth it but I doubt I will get close to that seeing the conditions I'm growing under but oh well just learning. We all start somewhere, even a joint to say I grew is worth it to me. Thanks for the advice and feedback
