First starting this grow with five Haze Berry Automatic seeds bought from Royal Queen Seeds. Using coffee filter method in a sealed bag at a dark location, temperature steady around 21C.
Germination of the five plant went without a hitch. It happened between Tuesday
and Friday when I wasn't around for a couple of days. Some had already
developed had leaves inside the coffee filter, about time to give them their
own spot. After a quick trip to the store to buy some soil (Welkoop Biologische
Zaai- en stek grond) they got a nice spot in a pot. Now they stand in my grow
room, surrounded by tomato, bell pepper, watermelon, and some other seedlings.
So far, so good. They have continued growing and taking in the delicious
light. The only issue so far was their stability, they tend to fall down after
watering. But we have mitigated the issue by adding some supports as seen in
the pictures. At the moment of writing we have not started giving any liquid
nutrients during the watering. The plan is to start that at the end of this
week any other watering session. My main method is watering them from below,
that way trying to prevent overwatering them. Nutrients would be added at the
top. Any feedback is welcome.
Nothing spectacular to report. Maybe Should have moved to a bigger cointainer
earlier but I did not have enough time to prepare. This morning I made their
new soil, so I can move them tonight. Mixed compost with dirt, coco, and
some sand for a nice all round mix. The first time creating an organic medium
so I hope it won't kill them.
The temperature and humidity looks a little strange. That's part because I
moved the sensor from the floor to the top the room. Idealy I would like
to have multile sensors at different height. So far the temperature / humidity
is far from optimal. To save energy on heating I had the room ventilation off.
That also made it easier to keep a higher humidity. But I don't have a way to
measure the Co2 level yet, it also means the temperature during the night is
still relatively high. That's stuff to figure out in the future.

Moved the plant to their new medium
One of the plans is acting up, though that would give the others some time to
catch up. The new leafs look good, so I am not worried about that. Overall they
look happy with their current situation.
Think some issues with growing where on my end because of experimenting with soil, despite that the plant hold on for a decent grow. The end result feels good anyway.
The harvest is from the three plants that stayed small. That is because the big chungus didn't show any sign of flowering. How to cut of this at some point to make space for a new generation. Moved the big plant outside but it did not survive because of budrot.
