Week 2 - Mephisto's Wedding & Fugue State

13 Nov - Seedlings seemed to have stop growth, so I made a couple of adjustments. Transplanted all to 5gal fabric: Mary and Glo went into previously used Harvest potting mix and FF Ocean Forest potting soil, but forgot to add Dynomyco. While Jane and Rilla were replanted in 100% FFOF with Dynomyco. Move under 2x 600w LED lights @ 36"

15 Nov, Day 14 - No big change over past two days, all seem to be adjusting to new home. MW have grown larger than the FS, but both are smaller than others other growers pics seen at day 14! Wait and watch...

Week 3 - Mephisto's Wedding & Fugue State

20 Nov - 1/2 cup of GloFlora Veg and just enough water sprinkled to moisten granules to get into soil. Lesson learned, don't want to overwater...

22 Nov - Day 21: Girls got off to a slow start, but they've added leaves since last week after making a couple of adjustments. Hoping the stall wasn't a sign of stunting! The plan was to top/train one of each strain, but due to size and looking about a week behind in growth, will the extra stress be beneficial. Will there be a surprise amazing stretch happening over the next week. Sprouted and dropped another FS just in case of stunting. Waiting for it to reach out to the light and break ground...

FS Carli was added three weeks after Mephisto's Wedding & Fugue State grow started and will be tracked here. One other addition expected by end of week, another FS germinating. Attempting to pinpoint cause of stall/slow growth while modifying light and water delivery.

Nov 24, Day 2 FS Carli off to a great start! Assisted with removal of helmet and made a couple of watering and lighting adjustments since others popped. She's 3wks behind, but compared to others at this point, has potential to catch and maybe outperform sisters! Early prediction, time will tell...

Dec 13 Day 9 - FS Henny, were do we go from here? Drop another seed or wait while she stands on her own with little growth, but determination.... She may grow into, or not a name change to Slow Motion!
