BonkerzJungle_ It's now been 5 days and I've transplanted them into a small pot with the jiffy.

BonkerzJungle_ Hi, 👋😏 It is now week 2 and the little ones have rooted through their homes. I've transplanted them and they are now in a 2L/0.5gal pot. The temperatures in our geographical region are not great during this summer, so it's a little cool, but we stay cool😎 We start with relaxed conventional potting soil, to which I have added some pumice granules. Another repotting in their final pot will follow.

BonkerzJungle_ Hi👋😅 We are now in week 3 and I have transplanted them into their final 8l/2.11gal fabric pot They were in the 2L pot for 8 days and a network of roots surrounded the soil. (next time you'll get pictures of the roots) new soil: Plagron light mix The plants have not grown much taller, but they've become bushier and the first side branches are growing explosively upwards! topping no topping? clips or no clips? we'll see cheers!😎

BonkerzJungle_ let's continue.. We are now one step into week 4 and the plants have survived the transplant operation very well. I've decided to top them and remove their lower branches. from now on we are working with lower nodes 3&4 or 4&5 and I topped the higehst ones. cheers 😎

BonkerzJungle_ GOOD & BAD NEWS It wouldn't be BonkerzJungle if there weren't any obstacles or clumsiness. ⛔️ always BAD first: Let's go back in time to the day when I planted my little seedlings in their first bed, and no one is as stupid as me: I was a little stressed because my substrate delivery was canceled, so I quickly went out and bought some standard potting soil from the supermarket (organic). I have often used supermarket soil for cultivation and the first 3-4 weeks. On the same day, I ordered new substrate, but this time Terra lightmix (mineral). In that aspect, it wasn't a big problem as I thought, because the potting soil in the pot (approx. 1.8L) forms a core, that later serves only as filler during the process of growing, as the fertilizer is used up over time (5–7 weeks). ———— BUT I REALIZED TOO LATE: the f supermarket soil has a new formula. I have SHEEP WOOL PELLETS as a new additive, great, right? not! friends, from now on we have a (N)-Nitrogenium PROBLEM. especially in flower/stretch😩 ———— ✅ ✅finally the GOOD one Now that I know what kind of surplus (problem) is coming up in the near future, I'll try it basically without (N) Nitrogen. I have several ways to deal with the sheep's wool pellets: I have to adjust my watering behavior (we water less and only on the outer edge of the pot) we need to pay attention to the pH and EC values of the watering water (less is more)! that means no Terra Grow!! (maybe no Bloom either❓) we work with Green Sensation and possibly PK 13/14 only! ︎ maybe Plagron Pure Zym or something similar ❓ (I'm inclined to overdo it, I guess, hahah) 🌴 Back to the Grow 😎: despite all this, my plantjes are strong! I decided to continue training the plants, and I attached clips that will form four maincolas. Since we are working with four main colas and the top two are slightly shorter, I have decided to remove the first side shoots. I am taking the energy from the side shoots and directing it to the top of the cola so that it grows evenly with the bottom two. They have now straightened up and are slowly growing upwards. I increased the light intensity, we are now running at 60% power, which corresponds to approximately ~147(W). We need to be careful with our surplus of (N), as the stretch could be longer than expected. peace & love

BonkerzJungle_ hej ho👋 Week 6 (VegDay42) has begun, I can feel the surplus (N) from the organic ball inside, the leaves are permanently deep green. I'm a little concerned about this, we'll see how the flowering turns out. I continue to water with a pH of ~6.3 and an EC of 1. The plantjes seem to be making a good impression. They will be switched to 12/12 during this week. It will probably be Sunday, as always lol 😅 So we'll be at VegDay 48 then, I think that's enough. cheers 😎 Bonkerz

BonkerzJungle_ 🙌12/12 to bloom.🙌 We are already in FlowerDay5. I changed the light cycle last week because I was tired of the vegetation phase - and a lil bit lazy w an update - sorry! Some side shoots were removed, then I let them rest for a while (3 days) before switching to 12/12. We still see the (N) surplus inside my substrate, this will NEVER EVER HAPPEN AGAIN💀 we'll see how this affects flowering 😎 Due to the inner substrate of cheap soil, which has a poor NPK value, I now perhaps have a construction site that can be worked on. The plants continue to look very good, except for the (N) surplus and a little (K) blockage which I can remedy this with some Epsom salts.
