Impressions about plant

The Granddaddy Purple is now 24 days old and is only 6” tall. I consider this day 9 of veg. She is still showing the deformity…starting at the second node she is growing three leaves instead of 2 opposite leaves. It will be interesting to see if this continues and how she develops. Light schedule is 8 on / 6 off...will be reducing the on period to match what is happening outside so they don’t flower right away. PPFD is a little under 600. Keeping humidity around 70% and temps about 84f day and 73f at night. I have two oscillating fans set on medium to harden them off. The tent is always venting on 1.

I repotted her into a 1-gallon pot a few days ago. She had a nice root ball. I again used Sunshine mix #4 with extra pearlite…spiked with mykos and azos. A couple of days ago I fed her the 3rd mix of Success Veg nutrients + SuperThrive. I am following their acclimated feed chart.

I am starting in a 4 x 4 tent and will move them outside to a greenhouse tent in early May…and eventually to the deck once it gets warmer. Her tentmates are a Gold Leaf, a Bubba Kush, and two Amnesia Hazes.
