80s_Oni Day one of my first grow ever! I'm going to be trying to grow some Blueberry x Big Devil autos from Crop King. I'm using the germination method suggested with the seeds. I let them soak for about 13 hours with Evian spring water, then poured them out on a paper towel and plate and letting them sit for the next few days. With this grow, I'm going to use one of my seeds as a control and the other I want to play around with, but we'll see how it goes! Day 3, my first sign of problems. Seedlings showed signs of being j rooted. I reached out to my old man and he suggested planting them. Put them in, misted the ground and covered the site. The pot with the the rod is going to be my control pot. I will be feeding it normally but not doing or adding anything to make it boost. The other pot does have 3tsp of Dynomyco mycorrhizal inoculant mixed in. I have my light at 22" and 60% brightness. I'll be running 18 and 6 for the the remainder of the grow. Lets hope for a good recovery!

80s_Oni Man, this past week has been nerve racking. After the planting on Tuesday (day 3), I am now at day 8 and I am so happy with them just sprouting lol. My test plant that has the Dynomyco in the soil mixed, sprouted first on day 5 with her sister, the control plant, coming up strong by day 7. I did give each of them roughly a shot glass of the evian spring water when I planted them in the dirt, and on days 4 and 5. let them sit till today which I should probably water after I get done writing this. I'm still uncertain on how much to water them, but looking at others grows and advice, I'm gonna try and use the knuckle method and just by look. Although I do have a moisture, light, and ph reader that I could, try to use? I'll give it a run. (Edit: Used my soil meter a little closer to the plants. After about 25 minutes, it said the soil was dry, so I watered each plant about 250ml at a ph of 6.5. At day 10 the medium seemed pretty dry, so I watered with another 250ml. I had some heat and humidity spikes, but now I'm at about 77f and 45rh. Not optimal, but reasonable from what I understand. I have noticed on my test plant that she has some yellow highlighting the veins of the leaves. I'm slightly concerned, but think if I let her drink what water she has before watering again, she'll be fine. Today at day 12, I switched the positions of the flowers. Now the control is closer to the opening of the grow and the test is towards the back. I have been running my fans constantly and have a 3rd larger fan blowing air in from outside to try and help the temp and humidity spikes.) I will start ph'ing and dechlorinating my water from here on out. Gonna try to have roughly between 6.2-6.8 for my ph here. Light schedule is still the same, temps are reasonable after I switched on my smaller fans, I don't think I need to use my inline just yet. I will wait to start feeding and training later.

80s_Oni Day 14, week 2 is here and the girls are looking a little better, but still look small. I think I watered them too close together earlier in the week, so I let the medium dry out for the past couple of days. I'm using my soil meter again to test how moist the medium is, as well as by feel. I have noticed that I have been a inconsistent with my light brightness this past week as I tried to combat the heat and humidity, probably causing some undue stress. My highest temp this week was about 85F and the highest RH being about 71%. I did try to drop both down as much as I could and was able to get both numbers down to a reasonable range within about a day. Right now, I'm at about 60-75% power with my light which seems to be the sweet spot at this moment. I also have not been checking the ph of my soil, which could be an issue as well, but hopefully not. This week I plan just to water and wait till next week, to feed and maybe start my LST. Overall nothing really new, the plants are now side by side, as opposed to catty corner (diagonal) to each other, to try and maximize my light usage. Watered the plants today with 350ml at a ph of about 6.04. After using my 3-in-1 medium tester, saw it reading the ph of the soil at closer to 8. Here's to hoping! Update on day 16: After watering, the girls kinda exploded over night! These pics are from today and they look amazing! Although one seems to be a bit different from the other, the consistency of everything has been pretty much equal. At this point, I'm just trying to keep them happy. I do believe that I will have to look closer at watering as I continue now.

80s_Oni Well, another week, and this one just kinda got by me, at least documenting, journaling whatever you want to call it. This week has been rather uneventful, just watering and slowly stepping up the amount. The weather has been working within my favor this week, so the girls have had it pretty nice and stress free for the large part. I've just been kinda hovering over them learning to water by feel. My only concern is making sure I'm just getting enough to them as they grow, but so far I haven't seen any signs saying they're doing anything but great! As this continues, it gets easier to kind read the plants. Today or tomorrow, day 27/28, I'm gonna start my LST for the girls!

80s_Oni So I missed a week of posting, buuuuuut, still been keeping an eye out on the girls and giving them attention and affection when I can. I started LST the week prior, and gave them a few days at the end of the week to straighten out without the training. (not documented) and tied them back down after these pics were taken. I also started giving them nutes with terp tea grow. This week the girls were drooping a bit, so I hit them up with grow and a lil bit of bloom as it looks like they're in pre flower. It also hasn't helped much that the humidity has been high, and although my dehumidifier does well, I need to reposition it so it can be more effective...maybe get some rock salt as well to help. But all in all, the girls are happy! I will note that I have been doing better on getting a feel on when to water them and trying to read them and their needs.

80s_Oni This has been another rough week with the humidity for sure. Had my larger fan go out bout mid week with the girls, which wasn't too terribly bad, but didn't quite help. I got the situation resolved yesterday just by getting a box fan and placing it in the grow room. Other than that the plants are doing great! I took some time to reapply low stress training to the branches, trying to even out the canopy. Before I was at about 11" and 9" at the tops of the main colas, now sitting at about 8" even with the canopy in general. I did only water with 3/4s of a gallon this week, and no nutes. I think I'm still getting use to reading my plants and seeing how much they drink, and trying not to let them dry out too much, but still a day or so behind (maybe more) on that, but I can't be too terribly mad with how they look like they're turning out. The plants have been forming pistols for the past couple weeks and I think this will be the last week of preflower before they are in full swing in the flower cycle. The smell is starting to get more noticeable, but isn't too pungent or strong, but I attached my filter on my inline for the first time today. All in all I think I'm doing OK, for sure. The girls look healthy and there doesn't seem to be an abundance of issues appearing. There are some things that I have noticed or slipped on throughout the grow so far, but it's mostly small stuff like making sure to pH or other tricks to help keep the humidity low when I absolutely need it. I think there probably has been some stunting, but again not too pressed about it. I currently have a tea being brewed with 1.5tsp of grow and bloom, 2 cups of worm castings and I'll be adding some recharge (I was thinking one tsp per gal) towards the end of the brew. I'll make sure to note if I saw any differences!

@@Trumptight420, at first I was using it mainly for watering purposes, because it seemed the pH reader wouldn't go any further down than like 7.5, even when I was dropping my water to 5.9 or so. Now as I'm learning more on how the girls drink normally, I don't use it. But I'm in the same boat. I'll get there eventually, but just feeling out the grow and I'll dial it in with each grow. I normally try to stay between 6.2 and 6.5 with my water and teas.

@80s_Oni, I know what you mean...I got mine for the purpose of monitoring my soil PH and you are exactly right it would never read lower than 7...I will say that I gave them to my brother for use in his outdoor gardening and they seems to do fairly better...but yeah when I make my teas I try to keep it between 6.5 and 6.8 but recently I have only been using teas just before switching to flower...I am currently working on not a living soil but assembling a living ecosystem for my girls...it is so much that can be learned and applied just from one plant that I believe if you can truly master this art then you will also truly master self...Enjoy the Experience and Grow Strong!
