Green Gelato

Week 1 Veg Apologies for posting a little bit late, but nonetheless here's one of the 2 BRAND NEW strains by Royal Queen Seeds; Green Gelato 🍧 a very exciting release from RQS that I can't wait to try! If you've had any of the Gelato cuts then you'll know exactly how dank this girl can be. I think RQS worked with #33 (Lary Bird), but even with fem seeds there can be many more than one phenotype. I started this girl in a wet paper towel as usual, and then placed her inside an open freezer bag and popped her in a dark drawer (my seed vault). I accidentally left her in there a little longer than I normally would, causing her to completely sprout from out of her seed case. This isn't an issue and shouldn't be anything to worry about. Some people even prefer to leave them until they're this far. I prefer not to, as once the tap root produces a lot of fuzzy hairs it can cause it to stick to the paper towel, making it difficult to pull away without damage. No damage was caused to this girl though, as the paper towel was pretty wet rather than damp. When transplanting a seedling like this into the coco/medium, you still want to completely cover her and let her reach further out of the coco herself. After she was transplanted the coco was given a spraying with 5.8pH water (I currently use tap water, but RO is best). I don't soak the whole cup, only enough to dampen at least half the cup. This is so she dries quicker and shoots her little roots further. I also spray inside her germination bag and place it over her cup until she's had her first day above the coco. This is to act as a humidity dome to stop her from drying while she's so young. She was then given only water with EM1 until day 6, where she was started on a light nutrient feed (listed above). Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺
