I have one seed of sativa dominant hybrid left from 2019 trip to Uruguay. I dropped seed in to pot on July 4 and on 8th of July it popped out of the soil. I had helped to take seed shell off.
My set up is soil mix (Batmix) from Plagron and Tropf Blumat auto watering system. I have inoculated soil with Funky Fungi mycorrizhae from B.A.C. and put some in a hole with seed.

A week old seedling. This one was stunned for a week due to my fault: I didn't notice when I hit the Blumat carrot and opened the valve. So about 10L of water went through 15L pot. Now seedling is recovering and have shown second pair of real leaves.

3 weeks from braking soil. Plant has 4 nodes and growing tall. There is some canoeing on older leaves. Now temps in grow space are lower and that should fix the problem.
I will top her when she will have 6 or more nodes, probably end of next week.

8 weeks old plant. 5 weeks since last post. I had to leave my plants on Blumat auto watering system. And it failed.
Top part of the pot is wet and well watered (maybe too much as my other plant has a fungus gnats infestation) but pot as a whole was light and dry.
I will give it a week to recuperate and then I will switch to flowering light cycle.

10 weeks since breaking soil. After I had fixed irrigation plant really took off. Now it grows fast and vigorous.
This weekend I will try to fix infestation problem and top up pot with fresh soil mix. Probably I will give plant a week more to grow before switching to flower to let it fill grow space more evenly.

11 weeks old. Still a bit small to flip. At least plant reached maturity and has asymmetrical branches grow now.
I bought yellow sticky paper to fight gnats. Hopefully I will stop infestation. I had removed most of the mulch layer, so top part of soil in the pot should dry better.
I will give my plant a week more to grow and than, judging by her size, I will decide to flip or not in to flower.

13 weeks old. 1 week on 12/12 schedule. Plenty of stretch, but there isn't any pistils yet. Sativa strain. I have a "cover crop" (cat grass) now.
Last week, before flipping to 12/12 I dropped a handful of compost worms in a pot. Hopefully worms will give enough food for the plant later on.

14 weeks old. 2 weeks since flip to 12/12 cycle. Plant has stretched but not as much as I expected. Stretch didn't stop yet, though.
Beginning of the week plant showed first pistils. There are bud sites all over it already.

14 weeks old. 2 weeks since flip to 12/12 cycle. Plant still keeps stretching a little. Budsites are getting bigger. Some older leafs are affected by necrosis, probably caused by slight N deficiency. I hope worms in the pot will do the job and provide enough food for the plant through the cycle.
Also I lowered lights to 40 cm (14") from canopy.

Such a shame I had to cut down my plants. I have to move apartment and can't take my plants with me.
This one is a hard loss because she was growing fine more or less. The other one is a misery so I am not that much upset.
