Height (feet:inches): 0:2 1/4
Growth since last (inches): 0

New height not measured in New container. Soil level is higher so measurement with be less starting out.

Two hours direct sun in am with peak at 90 F, shade w/temps avg mid to high 70's during peak heat from direct sun and return to direct sun at 5:00 pm at 82 F.

Height not growing, so roots forming, and seeing main leaves get bigger, as well as new leaves beginning to be seen. Outside time, higher temperatures really making a difference from the cooler temps in the house that have stunned growth as previously discussed.

Have not measured in new pots. First measure will be smaller due higher soil level from repotting.

Outside 6:30 am in direct sun peaking to 90 F until 11:50 am when moved indoors due to forecasted TS and hearing thunder. Storms came through during 12 o'clock hour and rained off and on throughout afternoon.

Would've liked to pickup some rain water seeming how much difference it makes on garden, but was concerned w/over watering.

Also considered just leaving as outside grow, but seeing how pests are of concern, I've ruled that out. Concerned enough taking them out for daily sunbathing (reason for sunbathing previously discussed, cold house due wife's needs, put short).

GSC#1 has taken the lead in the 3 plants I have going (2 GSC and 1 Durban Poison). It has started developing it's next set of leaves.

I received six GDP seeds today from New420GuySeeds.com, two were freebies. I will be dropping one tomorrow since I didn't get to it today.

07/29 rain outside, kept indoors. Plant is loving it's outdoor time/temps (indoor too cool due HVAC). Using foilage spraying and more frequent water schedule than a straight indoor grow as the heat has a greater impact. I lost my GSC#1 due to not enough watering for outdoor time.

Several days of forecasted TS (thunderstorms) or appearance of questionable weather, so plants remained indoors more often than usual. Days are getting shorter and evenings cooler. Hours outside on those days will be decreasing. Growing both a sativa and hybrid, it's easy to tell the plants apart, respectively, the hallmark tall and skinny verse the shorter bushier.

I believe I have gender ID pics. Also, one freeloader riding along that went back outside with plant. It was cool looking, some thing I'd never seen before. A jumper, but apparently not a cannibus consumer, luckily.

Lastly, she's at 32", 20" from light, last pic, plant in right. The other is my 25" GSC. I should top both, but only cloned before. Nervous about topping.

No outdoor time this week. I changed the topping to a couple different temporary makeshift containers before settling on just a kitchen glass. I'm a little concerned I have left too much of the leaves untrimmed, but going with it for now. She's currently under a dome not pictured, removed to take pics. I'm using rooting gel, which is the color in the water.

Skipping details of fixed information, such as lighting, mother is now 44" tall.

09/22/20 6:10 pm
Water change and fresh rooting gel for top, and began first flower night on mother due to her height.

09/28/20 9:22 am
Mother has grown 12" in 9 days! Houston, we have a problem; not enough room to sustain that growth rate. Also, her roots are growing out the bottom of the fabric pot.

Planted top in soil today. I trimmed the dead leaves afterwards.

10/03/200 12:00 pm

Mother is less than 4" from the top of the 6' tent. I didn't expect such a growth rate or I'd started flowering sooner. I had to hang the light sideways and I rotate the plant every 6 hours of light time, which is 12-12. I used Bush Master this week and will be giving another dose in two weeks if not sooner perhaps (not sure of frequency because the bottle doesn't specify).

The top is not looking good, so we'll see what happens with her in the other tent where she shares space with a GDP and GSC, the later to enter flower soon when she hits 36", about another inch. I need more lighting and will share space between the GSC and Durban Mother in the larger tent that is unfortunately not higher but is wider, which is needed for the GSC's bushiness.
