Hey! First timer here. Spent a LONG time doing research and have finally started my grow. I have started this a bit late... I am currently on day 21 above ground! So far, I think things are going ok .
Already learnt a ton. Had some underwatering issues at the beginning, was underdoing the nutrients as well so have corrected myself in those areas. Working in a small 40cm x 40xm x 120cm tent, so making sure to train her and getting the airflow right. Have also been keeping an eye on VPD which has been fairly straightforward so far. Have a supplemental tube heater inside the tent as it is cold here and a little humifider. Running 20/4 lighting but VPD range has held up so far so very happy on that front.
Now for the pictures...
Day 5 above ground - Planted directly in the autopot once it had germinated.
Day 16 above ground - Started some LST a few days before this was taken. Started it early enough that I managed a really sharp bend on the main stem, no damage or anything. Reflecting on this, I would probably have let the plant grow a little more to get some height in. You can see it is really close to the ground now which I am currently trying to remedy now.
Raised the lights here as well, had them a bit low even though they were dimmed so I had a little bit of light burn and wilting but they have bounced back.
I turned the autopots on around this day as well as the plant leaves had reached the side of the pot.
Day 22 above ground - VERY bushy, can see the LST has paid off already. Canopy isn't as even as I would like but I have remove some stakes for now. Want to give it a couple of days to see what it does, ideally, I want a bit more height from the original side stems, then I will stake them down again. Currently using the Canna A and B light feeding schedule which is at 2ml of each per litre, just mixed up another 4L for the res and will see how the next few days go and if she needs it a bit stronger. I've got some CalMag handy should I need it, but I do have very hard water.
I will try to update in another 5 days and by then, I hope to have more height to play with and can improve the canopy a bit more.
