So, you haven't feed your plant anything since you'd planted it?

I want to do the same thing in a few month.

Only Using FF ocean forest, 30% perlite mixed in. RO water with 5ml/gal of cal+mg

Trying to stay as much "organic" as possible. Planning on just feeding it Biothrive organic bloom during flowering. Not sure what else I need. I am pretty new at this.

Day 33, 34, 35, 36 (Oct. 24 ) - Nothing much going here. Waited about 3days and gave her a good watering. The topped off growth is really going off. 2 new branch structures are easily seen now. Also, she seems to be filling in more.

Still have no idea what strain this is. Can someone tell me if it is indica or sativa?

Day 37 (Oct. 26) - Worked on the cabinet today. Moved my led panel closer to the ceiling, about 1.5 inches more space now. I have about 30" of height inside the cabinet now. I included a better pic of my cabinet. You'll see a rectangular exhaust grill on the back. This is where i'll be hanging bagged activated carbon in front of the exhaust for order control.

I was trying to repot my plant into a short rectangle planter, but it didn't fit. So i had to repot it back, but i dropped it a few more inches in the the pot. It feels like the plant don't mind being transplanted, it surprisingly doing well after messing with her roots again.

Added Liquid Karma to the feeding regime now. And took her outside for a few hours of sunshine. She looks really dark green! Which is good...

Day 38, 39, 40 (Oct. 29 ) The plant has grown a lot since moving her into the cabinet. Trying to manage the height has been challenging. I have employed "topping" , and now am doing some LST'ing on her. The 2 new branches that came from the topping have been LST to the the fan leaf branch right below. I basically trained it to bend and run horizontally with the fan leaf branch. This has lowered my canopy a by quite a bit. Also, this opened up the middle areas of the plant for more light, and i am seeing extra branches sprout out.

I have also LST some of the bud sites to locations where it is not blocked by fan leaves. Trying to expose as many of the bud sites the light.

Day 41, 42, 43 (Nov. 1) - LST'ing the 2 main colas that were the new growth from the topping is working out. I have completely bent the 2 colas 90degrees and they are running horizontally with the fan leaf branch. I think there is actually at least 4 new bud sites that have emerged from the center area. You can see it in the pic!

Not too much longer, looking at your cabinet.
Do you know the strain, is it a tall grower or a compact strain?
You can grow either one if you flip them accordingly.

Currently have 8inches left till i hit the light. I will probably veg for another week and than flip.

I do not know the strain, it was a bag seed. It is a sativa though.

question for you.. how much growth/height should i expect during flowering? I hope it not that much. I will have to keep training her to be compact.

id flip soon if theres only 8 inches and you cant move the light anymore. Id say youll get at least 8" of stretch. Mine never seem to care how close the light is once ive flipped, lol. I wouldnt spend any more time, at the least, start cutting the light back.

Appreciate the opinion. I probably gonna flip it this weekend, just want to veg as long as possible. My ceiling light is a LED and it doesn't seem to be very hot. I think it will be ok for the plants to touch the light. Read that if you kept the light spectrum at the cooler temperatures during the first 2weeks of flowering, the stretching would be minimized. I am going to try that out and switch to warmer light after 2weeks.

I have some Seachem activated carbon coming in. My plan was to put the carbon in women's stocking and mount that infront of my exhaust duct. hope that this will work for scrubbing the odors.

Day 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50 (Nov. 8 )

I think i might have super cropped by accident. LST'ing the 2 colas with 90deg bend seems to have produced a even canopy. Very little vertical growth this week. Most of the growth seems to be filling up the middle canopy area. Still have 8" of height.

Looks like there's a lot of bud sites??
