The three amigos!

Week ending 21/04/21 Tried germinating 6 seeds in my heated propagator quite unsuccessfully. 4 seeds germinated (1 GGA, 2 SBA & 1 ZA). After a week I removed the the ungerminated SBA and ZA seeds from the peat pellet to inspect. The SBA was black and hard but the ZA looked healthy. I retried the ZA and also added another GGA to the propagator. Ideally, I want 6 plants total come harvest time. We'll see... From the previous diaries I upgraded my veg cupboard setup; - I swapped the basic 130w CFL for a Mars Hydro TS600. - I added a thermostatically controlled tube heater. - I added a Gorilla humidifier. This should fix the heat fluctuations and control and maintain the RH%. It'll be interesting to see how the plants respond to an improved set up. For the flower tent; - I added a Migro Aray 8 (480w). Again, I'm expecting big improvements on the performance of the basic HPS lighting and not having to wrestle with crazy heat fluctuations.
