Health Appearance: Excellent

Minimum Temperature: 72F

Maximum Temperature: 72F

Relative Humidity: 70

Light Cycle: 18/6

Fed: No

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

The tap root is growing nicely. The second seed has finally cracked open but no root showing yet.

I moved the sprouted one to the tent with the mini dome. Transplanted it to a rockwool cube, wet with 1,042 ppm water, covered the seed with a little rockwool piece to protect it from the light.

Date: 2024-03-31 (Day 6)

Smell: No

Health Appearance: Excellent

Minimum Temperature: 75F

Maximum Temperature: 75F

Relative Humidity: 70

Light Cycle: 18/6

Fed: No

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

Rockwool plant pushed the cover to come out. Moved it to cover the hole while letting it go out (to protect the roots from the light). Drained the excess water. Other one is growing the tap root in the paper towel.

Decided to put the little one in another rockwool cube and let it sprout itself from there to the light. The dome's water was drained and the humidity control opened.

Date: 2024-04-01 (Day 7)

Smell: No

Health Appearance: Excellent

Minimum Temperature: 76F

Maximum Temperature: 76F

Relative Humidity: 70

Light Cycle: 18/6

Fed: No

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

First plant is larger (longer) and standing up nicely. Not sure if the root is semi-exposed or if the stem is just too white and thin at the bottom. Opened up the two initial leaves searching for light.

Second plant is pushing the rockwool cover to come out.

Date: 2024-04-03 (Day 9)

Smell: No

Health Appearance: Excellent

Minimum Temperature: 76F

Maximum Temperature: 76F

Relative Humidity: 70

Light Cycle: 18/6

Fed: Yes

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

Both plants are out now. First one has a root coming out of the bottom (tip). Second one grew solidly up. Sprinkled a little bit of water on top using my fingers and removed the dome's top. Will transplant them to the buckets later today. Buckets need cleaning.

Moved them to the buckets. First one's root was coming out on the top and it was falling. I carefully opened the rockwool to give it a better footing by placing it more inside it. Need another air pump.

Fed:

1st -> 4 teaspoons -> 1082 ppm (5 gal)

2nd -> 1 tablespoon -> 925 ppm (5 gal)

Maximum Temperature: 83F

Relative Humidity: 42

Light Cycle: 18/6

Fed: No

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

Filomena suddenly outgrew Facunda. Wondering if they have the same genetics or are different strains.

Date: 2024-04-24 (Day 30)

Smell: Weak

Health Appearance: Good

Minimum Temperature: 76F

Maximum Temperature: 85F

Relative Humidity: 50%

Light Cycle: 18/6

Fed: No

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

Results of tests came back. Facunda is female. Filomena is actually male. Time to go boy! No wonder it suddenly grew fast.

I have removed the male (going to the trash). Added 1 tablespoon of CalMag to the female because she is looking a little yellow. Cut the dying leaves and moved her to the other bucket.

Date: 2024-04-30 (Day 36)

Smell: Weak

Health Appearance: Excellent

Fed: Yes

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: Yes

Notes:

Plant is getting very bushy. Trimming the excess leaves and botom branches for cloning.

Cut the bottom 4 branches put them in water to make clones. Took 4 cuttings put TakeRoot on them and inserted them into wet rockwool in a dome.

The remaining branches, I gave to nana.shana to use.

The mother plant has been trimmed from big leaves. I move her to the water of the male that was removed moved both airstones to the same bucket. ~1000 ppm

Date: 2024-06-01 (Day 68)

Smell: Normal

Health Appearance: Good

Minimum Temperature: 78

Maximum Temperature: 88

Relative Humidity: 60

Light Cycle: 18/6

Fed: No

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

The 4 clones died due to fungus. The level of humidity is too much with the dome cover and the humidity inside the tent.

Threw the 4 clones away and took 2 new ones from the bottom branch tips. Made sure to not put the dome on top. Instead, flood the bottom of the pan with water for the plants to have accessible.

Trimmed dying leaves from the main plant. She is looking good.

Date: 2024-06-09 (Day 76)

Smell: Normal

Date: 2024-07-07 (Day 104)

Smell: Normal

Health Appearance: Excellent

Minimum Temperature: 88F

Maximum Temperature: 94F

Relative Humidity: 50%

Light Cycle: 12/12

Fed: No

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

This plant is very fragile. Flowers are finally showing up. I trimmed it because it had too many fan leaves. Some branches were too sensitive and broke with the bending and I ended up cutting those. I also removed the small branches by the bottom center of the plant. Marked 2 branches with a white wire and dabbed the few flowers with the polen from LSD that was NOT in the freezer to see if it still works or not.

Date: 2024-07-14 (Day 111)

Smell: Normal

Health Appearance: Excellent

Minimum Temperature: 88F

Maximum Temperature: 94F

Relative Humidity: 50%

Light Cycle: 12/12

Fed: Yes

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

One of the branches that I tried to pollinate at the bottom snapped by accident. I pollinated another one on top and marked it.

Plant was almost out of water. I noticed that it was drying some leaves. I removed them.

Date: 2024-07-30 (Day 127)

Smell: Normal

Health Appearance: Excellent

Minimum Temperature: 82F

Maximum Temperature: 88F

Relative Humidity: 50%

Light Cycle: 12/12

Fed: Yes

Topped: No | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

She has stretched a lot! This plan is very fragile. Branches keep snapping with minimal bending. Lost another branch from the top. Cut branches at the very bottom that are clearly not going to yield anything.

Fed it with 5 gals at 1514 ppm.

Date: 2024-08-24 (Day 152)

Smell: Normal

Health Appearance: Good

Minimum Temperature: 74F

Maximum Temperature: 88F

Relative Humidity: 60

Light Cycle: 12/12

Fed: Yes

Topped: Yes | Fimmed: No | Lollipopped: No

Notes:

This plant keeps stretching. The bottom branches are useless. I chopped them off. The plant can barely hold itself upright. Tied it to the side of the tent to hold it straight.

Flowers are still miserably small. Probably due to the light having issues.
