I would consider myself an intermediate SOH care taker, but this one has me stumped.
This little guy lives under a grow light 14hrs a day. He was completely thriving and started to flower. But after a while I noticed that the growth was completely stunted and I had finally filled the top of the pot and wanted to see it start to trail. So I started snipping off the flowers so it could focus on growth. That seemed to work and the growth restarted, but not nearly as fast as before.
Then I noticed a good amount of leaves had turned red and I realised I’d probably gone a bit too long between watering. So I gave it a good dunking and the pot was heavy again. But I kept it out of the grow lights for a couple of weeks and opted for a bright, filtered light spot.
It’s now back under the grow lights and very slowly growing again. It’s still pushing out flowers and I’m still snipping them off. But on the whole, it’s looking pretty sad.
What am I missing?
