Yellowing tip? She’s is thriving tho no other sign of anything else.
Was reading online either light stress or magnesium or copper?
Its not copper the soil has enough nutes for a few weeks
Its stressed.
Its been overwatered, overfed, repotted, and light cycle changed from flower to veg.







Pop your other seed put it in the 3 gallon keep the light cycle on 12/12 feed on week 4 simple, you will produce product next time.

Who wants to be a pioneer !
Everyone says it’s not a good idea but I don’t really care to be honest , you guys yes have a lot of knowledge & I respect it, but some older methods are just mehhh. Why not experience with something new that actually needed up being great for a seed starter instead of putting into dirt or a paper towel this seed sprouted 12 hours in moss. So it works!

I get that
When you find something that works for you, you dont want to try any other way especially with only having 2 seeds. I tried paper towel method as a child no luck tried water in cups never looked back.

Glad your back and didnt give up

I’ve heard of the water in a cup! Seems pretty easy too! Yeah honestly I put it in a plastic egg carton with some moss sprouted in 12 hours just like the last one! Then I put it in dirt ! So I think it works great.
But thank you I am glad too ! She’s doing great so far !

The small bit of copper in fertilizer means it's impossible to get a copper Def. Magnesium is in everything too.

See how the inexperienced pick up lots of rubbish growing this plant.

It's bouncing back nicely, new soil and fertilizer did well. Watering and light I can't get right for you, you need to practice and work that out over time.
So this is her today ! She’s doing really well! Really not doing anything different. I changed the soil to this soil listed at at the bottom & it’s been doing really well ! It’s in a deeper set pot so taller ,6” rim going around. I have been watering when it’s dry when I put I’m my fingers. Roots came out the bottom the next day ! Also since I changed the light cycle 18/6 , it’s been better also. So fingers crossed things go well!

There's nothing more to it, soil water light and sometime in the future some fertilizer. Flip to flower in two weeks you'll start to get pistils if she is female.

For a moment I thought you were going to descend into some copper calmag pH odessey but luckily you kept it simple and got rewarded.

Class dismissed.

You think I should feed after I repotted on Monday ?
& should I repot in a bigger pot before fertilizing with the flower food ?
Also do you think that soil is good for it to be in someone said about it being too acidic ?
But yes excited !! Hopefully it’s a female! Fingers crossed ! :-D

Pot looks big enough for a good amount of growth, you should be able to work out when it needs fertilizer and repotting.

All our soils are a little acidic don't worry it won't mean anything, acidic soils for azaleas and some plants are quite acidic but we don't use them.

Everything is fine just water when it needs and let the plant tell you the rest. First time is a learning experience but we learn and know for the next time and that's what I wanted you to see.

Yeah so maybe I’ll repot then .. I heard you couldn’t repot when it start to flower ?

Oh okay yeah I heard if people using this stuff & it said it was for “herbs” so I figured
& yes ! I know pretty much the basics ! This little guy the pot is 6inches wide & 6 inches height. I just don’t want to keep it in this pot because I don’t feel like it will grow a good amount of bud

Oh okay ! Sounds good thank you !!
People get scared about potting up, think it stresses the plant
It really doesn't or not by very much. You time every thing right it's all good. Your learning, don't be afraid of small things people make big deals out of. Remember some wanted you to start in mouhassive pots and you would have umpteen problems and not the great control you have had by matching pot size to plant size.

Roots are always growing, look at hydro grows, they don't stop in flower but grow even more. It's only nearer the end they slow in growth so for us soil growers we prefer to get in a final pot at the start of flower.

Even a small pot works you just have to fertilize more earlier and loose some control as it gets rootbound but it still works just look at those solo cup challenges.

I got you to grow like any gardener would, mj growers get too carried away, you got the basics down its just practice now and doing more grows.

Eventually you will have bigger lights, tents, soils, methods but that comes with the journey, for now just keep it simple like any tomato grower would forget it's some magical plant.

Yeah I’ve repotted 3 times already not really happy about it but it’s hasn’t done any harm *knocks on wood* as long as you don’t stress it’s roots so much but Yeah so far everything is turning out great so I will fertilizer with a flower type of fertilizer then repot a week after I do that or maybe couple days ? & feed more after that or no I assume ? Thinking about these same company as soil

Yea you just drop it in a cup of water and a day or two it sprouts.
She looks alot better than last time I seen her. Much better. I been keeping an eye on the top It look like it tried to flower or it might be a cluster of leaves coming out
