Day 10 She’s a bit small making me think the soil went in too wet. Sticking with her though
SSSC Earthbox Jr. Auto Bruce Lemon Diesel
- Thread starter FarmerJake
- Start date
Day 17 and she got topped above the 5th node, a bit behind my typical but within a safe range of size/days. Haven’t watered the EBjr. At all until today. I actually left the plastic mulch cover off to vent a few days only just misting the soil surface to moisten and cover again today. Don’t think I’ll add water to the bottom for the first time for a few more days. Wet soil in an earthbox is unforgiving, be warned don’t overwater your earthbox and don’t put in too wet soil to start. Slow and steady wins the race
End of week 3 and the earthbox is so easy to maintain I ordered another
Defoliated some upper fans and ones that aimed toward the center of the plant. First leaf I pulled I swear I smelled skunk but I was unable to reproduce the whiff
And I just found her first pistil

Some curling to the leaves on new growth, excess nitrogen? Too much humidity? At any rate I top dressed her with 4tbsp Stonington blend plant food and 2 tbsp roots organics bloom terp tea. I covered that with about an inch of Stonington. Mixed up a gallon of RO and Canna Bioflores and top watered about a 1/4 gallon then filled the res through the tube until it flooded from the overflow. First time actually doing this maybe a bit late and maybe another potential reason for the leaves being curled. Defoliated some towards the center
She seems to have self corrected the microcephaly from the top dressing and watering. Solid stretch happened in the past two days… a second round of training appears to be in store as she’s still vegging.
Seems to be slow on overall growth and small on new growth again so I gave her a top dressing and top watering and defoliated fans and lowers

The roots are amazing under that plastic mulch cover
I mixed a few handfuls of miracle gro organics soil with Roots Organics Terp Tea Bloom, Terp Tea Bloom Booster, essential earth, and elemental. I put this heavily amended soil mounding on top of these roots, watered it in and replaced the cover.
Back in tent

She was looking happier again but super lopsided in canopy so I did some more training.

Really excited I can tell I got my favorite pheno that has a lemony diesel smell(less Bruce) and is already frosting, last time this pheno was ridiculously sticky. We are definitely in early flower now
