She seemed to have drooped a little yesterday, I put it down to needing more water so have watered here as she was close to the light. Still drooped a bit today but have transplanted the propagation rhizopot to the 16 litre rhizopot now, just cut the bottom of the pot to open her up as that was the thickest point. Wouldn't want my lovely tap root to not get through , interestingly I could not see any roots at the bottom at all :O.

That's not anything to be concerned with, in my book. The only info I would take from that, is that she was not root bound.

EDIT: Sorry....I forgot how young she is still. That doesn't surprise me that you didn't see roots.

I think I will start @TaNg nutrient regime next week, but using my canna bio vega nutrients instead. She should be watered plentiful for at least 3 or more days at the moment. Currently humidity is a little low at 52 RH and temperature at around 27 c. Do you think humidity needs increasing?

I don't think so. My room fluctuates from 30% all the way up to 65%......but is usually some where in the middle (Its even been as low as 22% in the winter). The plants don't seem to mind either way....although I do have an extra fan for airflow when the RH gets up there, to discourage bud rot. Personally, I think it easy to get caught up in all of the little details when you're first getting started. Its important to keep track of the environment and what not...but when you're super focused you tend to get a lot of knee jerk reactions, if you know what I mean. I think your conditions are right where they need to be.

Excellent will get a new pic up soon, I see at least 4 different branch sites appearing from the nodes happy days.

New update, perked herself up a bit, currently day 14. Does anyone think the leafs are looking normal or they a bit drooped to you?

 

[BigMich]

Day 16 new growth and what appears to be branch points growing. I count 7 in total! without any training I am impressed, look closely at the pics and you can see the leaf branches splitting in in two on each node point with a middle section growing forward. Watered it lightly today with a little calmag again as the soil lacks it and I rather prevent than cure, I guess a bit cannot hurt. Will feed her some 0.25 of bio vega on thursday again. Currently doing a water every other day or so, lighter feeds than one heavy feed etc. So my current schedule is bio vega starting at 0.25ml per litre, rest, normal water, rest, feed again. I am going to do this for 3 consecutive times before moving to feed with each water for 3 or so times and then upping to 0.5ml per litre for several feeds and upping again to slowly taper her into nutrients. The soil already contains some nutrients and higher nitrogen content being the Canna professional soil, though saying this I do not think the Bio Vega being organic is too strong to harm the plant. Any suggestions on if I should up that dose more or stop?

Hi @Frankthetank I am a little worried its day 19 and I am seeing pistils forming already around 6 or so of them formed last night the plant is only 5 inch tall and a little bushier or bigger than last pics. Is this normal? I am hoping it jumps in size but worried it will stay tiny.

That's normal. Auto's kick into flower early (around this time for most strains), but continue to grow. Give her some time, my friend, she's about to take off. She looks healthy!

Do I just keep giving her vegetative nutrients until the growth stops?
