d0 - used the glass of water method (+micorrizas +bacteria +fulvic acid), after 12h (the seed stopped floating in the water after 3 hours) I put it directly in the coco because I notice that the seed shell has already cracked. Evidently, this seed is more eager than I am!😊
Coco was prepared as usual mixing 40% of perlite, currently I'm using the Atami High Porosity for the germination phase. The plastic cup is something I have seen used in the countryside and is very effective because it forces the plant to root downward and not sideways, protects the collar, improves the distribution of water during irrigation both now in the early stages and when the plant will be in flowering
72h hours later has germinated, but it seems to have burnt tips... it is not an alarming problem but it needs attention it could be a slow growing seed.
+24h after germination - I am not sure, but I think it was not burnt but simply white because it did not have chlorophyll yet? I've only been growing cannabis for a very short time and I've never seen anything like it.
+36h after germination - I realized why it was born with the tips sick and the reason was because (probably) the embryo while coming out of the seed has been damaged... happens, but good because in this case there are other issues
d1 - Apart from a small accident in the germination, everything is running smoothly. Starting from today I'll start with the fertilization (learning from past mistakes 😅) with megacrop a + b in a ratio of 1:3 (and not use calmag). As additives i'll use kemp, silica, fulvic acid and once a week, useful bacteria and mycorrhizas. Anyhow all of these last aren't nutrients in a strict sense but are needed for the plant health. I will use the reflecting tube for the first 3 weeks as usual, but this grow I want to start directly with 3 watts of light from the beginning and then (gradually) increase the power to 8 watts when the seedling will have about 10 days. hope it works!
d5 - i'm up to 0.9 ec and 6-7w of light... and it seems to want more! since i changed the tube i use to grow the plants (and spaced out the light compared to the past) my reference points have changed a bit. here GD comes in handy i'm really using it as a diary! the third set of leaves has already sprouted
d7 -If I was watching it, I would probably see it grow! 😲 already at the 4th node, giving the plant more light and more nutrients right from the start helped! i will follow this procedure with the watermelon too!

Extra tip: when RQS sent me the easy grow seed germinators I wanted to test if they are good for cuttings and this is the result after 7 days! Cooool!
d9 - I'm feeding it with .4 ec (it's growing really fast/ no burn sign), in days it will be time to make the first topping. Yesterday I forgot the plant in a warm place without ventilation, but apart from being a little yellowed (but really little) she didn't notice the hit at all.
