All seeds germinated with the glass of water technique and were placed lovingly in seedling starter soil. They were placed in a mylar lined cardboard box and grow light for 16 on 8 off. 85° Day temp 75° night temp 30 to 50 % humidity. These are eventually going outside in 17 gallon buckets in an effort to get them as large as possible for high yield. Wish me luck with my first grow!
Week 2 had a few challenges. The seedlings were getting little leggy so I got them outdoors in the breeze to strengthen the stem. The wind caused one to snap but it didnt fully break so it is in scotch tape traction right now 🤣. It is still hanging tough after day two fingers crossed. I am preparing the pots for the seedlings to be transplanted into this weekend. I plan to use FishSh!t to easy the stress of transplanting. I am using the leds on overcast days to supplement till they get bigger. Happy growing and any suggestions are welcome just be sweet. 😘 -Kate
The seedlings we placed in their final pots and placed outside in full sun. The 15 gallon pots make the plants look so small but they grew two inches this week once repotted. I conducted a soil test and discovered low nitrogen levels so I added earthworm castings and chicken manure granules to slowly release more nitrogen. Fishsh!t with every watering and cal-mag spritz every few days. Having so much fun ☺️
I learned an important lesson about growing outdoors in my area this week. I left the hose on with the nozzle closed hanging from a small branch near my site. Droplets of water leaked and over time accumulated and caused white poweder mold (wpm) to appear all over the crepe myrtle tree that the hose was hanging on. Infection showed up on several plants. I treated the plants with a mix of 1 quart water to 1 tablespoon baking soda applied liberally at dusk with a fine mist sprayer. A few leaves were removed from several plants but I am happy to report the infection is contained and the plants are recovering well. I am trying super cropping with a few plants by pinching the stems gently. The plants are responding well and the stem regrowth is showing. I would like to try main lining one or two plants b/c this strain grows so large. I love everyday in the garden. Wish me luck 🍀
I am working on mainlining so the plants were topped when they grew to the 5th node. Topped back to the 3rd node and defoliated below that. They recovered well and are growing rapidly.
Growing fast and the plants will soon be ready for the next topping and training. The strain is hearty and i am impressed with how the grow is going so far.
