Start my own heirloom variety I can pass onto my son.

Oh, man, sorry to hear about your dad. Was it sudden or did you know it was coming? Not that it makes a difference, but it kind of does, maybe. My dad had cancer, so we knew it was coming, I dunno if that made it “easier” or not, but at least it wasn’t a shock or anything.
Anyway, yeah, sorry to hear that.

Yeh it was about as sudden as you get, he was in a car crash.
Like you say, It’s not easy either way, knowing in advance and having to live with that, or the suddenness and the shock. My mother passed away from cancer when I was 16, and we knew in advance, but at 16 I didn’t really understand what was happening. My daughter passed away at only 3 weeks old and again we knew in advance.
In all honesty, yeh it’s tough, but I’m coping quite well with it right now.
My life has just built me to be resilient I suppose, so I know how to manage emotions in situations like this. Yeh it’s shit, but not every aspect of my life now has to be shit.
It’s all about finding the good things in life, and having people you love to enjoy them with.
That’s what I’m focusing on.
We don’t control life, be we do control how we react to it.

I should really be in bed asleep instead of in the tent at 2am 
These were all originally started on the windowsill while I finished flowering the last lot.
And the front left plant here became a cats dinner while I wasn’t looking one day 
so I’m blaming that fir the stunted growth.
The other three have all been topped once when I transplanted i to these pots, and they’re all starting to bounce back after that.
Still not sure why the front left one looks like it’s dying. Hopefully it pulls through as I’ll be flipping to flower in about a weeks time.
Going to number them from the top left (clockwise) for future reference.
No.1
No.2

How long ago did you transplant? Maybe she’s just taking a little longer to get adjusted or something. I’m no expert on plant deficiencies, but it does look like some sorta deficiency. Maybe you could foliar her with something. What that might be, I don’t know haha, but that might help. Maybe water with a neem and kelp tea? Those don’t really every hurt anything.

Yeh, so they all got transplanted and topped at the same time, about 11 days ago.
I’m going to try giving it a foliar spray this weekend (that isn’t an IPM spray.)
I’ve got a some cal/mag I can water in too which hopefully brings it round.
It’s definitely deficient in something. Root growth has been decent though, there’s loads of white tips poking out from the pot underneath, so its got a decent root structure.
I think it’ll pull through, but will just be the runt of the lot.

About 1 more week and I’ll flip these to flower.
So next watering, tomorrow, they’re getting a bloom top dress and plain water.
I’ve also planted some more peas this week to put outside now the weather has perked up a bit.
But somehow I’ve managed to grow a rogue amongst them.
This soil was from an outdoor container that has been sat out in the garden for about 3 weeks now. So where the fuck this came from, I have no idea.

Can’t quite figure this out at the moment, and I don’t really have the time to.
I’m thinking calcium deficiency, and also a lack of N.
But I’ve been feeding N along with cal/mag and have top dressed last week. Water ph is 6.3-6.5 after everything is mixed in.
I’ve also lowered the light intensity to let it recoup a bit hopefully.
Temps are currently around 70-80f lights on/off and humidity 60-75 lights on/off.
So I’m guessing a lock out has occurred. But literally no time to deal with it.

Day 15 Flower.
Had a bit of a battle with these for a while now
But nice to see them making progress.
Still a bit of an issue with a deficiency (which i believe to have been ph related), but it seems to be sorted now.
I’ll be feeding with Plant Magic old-timer bloom and Biobizz cal mag for the remainder of this grow now.
Hope everyone is having a great week so far!

Buds are stacking nicely and trichs are starting to make these things shine 
Some beautiful autumnal colours coming through too 
Hoping to take these to aprox 9.5weeks.
