Jeez just my luck, just on the last week of vegetative stage, I screwed up my grow, sigh... I over did it with the pesticide, thinking it was homemade and organic I liberally applied it without knowing I phytotoxic'd my babies to wilts of death. They seemed ok before I hit the 24-hour pre-flowering darkness, when I checked them the next day my heart sank. But I'm also surprised my toughest baby, Maxine, survived with only some leaves affected. She was salvageable, so I'll be putting her back to vegetative phase. Sigh... 7 babies wasted to my noobness. :sadcrying:

On the bright side wasn't all lost I still got Maxine, and I've learnt more about pesticide application, and a deeper understanding about my connection with them. Here's a link to useful information regarding safe application of pesticides --

Sorry about the diverge in topic, but to continue about my sense connection. When I over did it with the pesticide I couldn't feel the sense anymore. I figured it out only after the darkness, seems they didn't want to connect with me since they were dying and saw me as a threat. It's weird, but at the same time seems love is part of this sense connection. Once I had cleaned up Maxine I had the sense again the next day. So I'm getting more attuned to this connection, it won't work if they see you as a threat. Another weird thing is I feel like I'm getting a panic attack when they're getting stressed out, the first time I was clearing the space to clean the floors they were crying out so much, because I removed them from their habitat. And when I had to do away with my poor 7 babies, that was such a crappy feeling.

Another thing I can confirm is that if you keep playing the tunes they like they will definitely get bigger. I was playing music all week and the leaves were huge, out grew the stalks. So good music, love, and care for that connection. Your babies will love you for it and they will show it in their growth.
