Day 35: Seems like she stopped vertical growth and she has not even reached 10" yet. :( But what do I expect, she's a dwarf right? LOL. This strain would be great for a smaller spaced grows, but I will definitely change strains next time to maximize my vertical space. Light currently at 7-8" distance.

Day 41:

Left her alone for 4 days. Leaf tips had some nute burn when I arrived and runoff PH was nearly 5 so I flushed her with some PH'ed water.

Day 47:

Plant showing some kinds of deficiency and nute burn especially on the top leaves. The leaves on top have brown tips and yellow bands on the sides of the leaves plus some yellow spotting.

I have flushed the plant with 6.0ph water 4 days I ago. I am now feeding it nutes with some extra calmag at about 800ppm(0.5) at 6.4ph twice a day since I suspect this is magnesium def and I'm hoping increasing my PH to 6.4 from my normal 5.5ph will help with my magnesium uptake, but is this really Magnesium deficiency?

Day 53:

Flushing plant out. Im gonna use PH'ed fresh water from here till the end. Using a 60x loupe, I can see that all trichomes are still clear, hopefully she will be ready in a week or two.

Had big time problems with her this week. I still don't know whats wrong with her, but with only a week or two away from harvest it looks like she's gonna barely make it. Stumbling to the finish line! LOL

I just finished air drying them and weighed it before putting them in the curing jar with humidipaks : 29 grams total, almost 3x my first grow :)

Im happy with the Royal Dwarf (29 grams in 60 days) but i'm gonna switch to a higher producing strain (Dutch Passion's Power Plant) my next grow. Hopefully I would be able to get a much bigger yield with a non-auto strain. I hope I can get near my 2 ounce target for my grow space next time.

You did great, tortie!! Your space is indeed for another lady, a photoperiod one should do the work!!

Well done, +rep!
