Gooeygrows his 1st autoflower !
💡2 x 24W CFL
🌱2 x Coco Jiffy Pellet
💧 Tap water @ 0.1EC x 15ml (×2 Daily)
🍃 Small clip fan
Will look to start training ASAP if first stages of growth run smoothly. This is my favourite aspect of cannabis cultivation so I may have to adjust my approach given the unforgiving nature of auto flowering plants. Currently considering a 3rd node topping to promote a mainline V.S. simple LST and leaf tucking. I am curious how the plant will grow if left untouched however I would be lying to myself if I was to believe I could refrain from any tucking, bending or weaving!
After hours of unnecessary stressing about which day is the true Day 1 of a seed to harvest growth timeline... I cannot find a trustworthy source and as such have decided to start Day 1 in the Vegetative stage marked by when the seedlings push their helmets above ground (favourable in this circumstance given I planted the germinated seedlings relatively deep into the coco pellets).
•100% germination rate
•Day 1( D1) to be recorded from W1 of veg when seedling heads emerge from the jiffy pellet tops.
Environment:
💡2 x 24W CFL (24/0)
🌰2 x Coco Jiffy Pellets → 2 x jiffy pot
🌡️T: 22-28°C || RH: ~60-70%
Germination timeline:
G+0 (26 April): 2 seeds → paper towel
G+72H: sprouting observed ✓ taproot ready for pellets ✓
★ transplant both sprouts→coco jiffy pellets
💧Irrigation with tap water 15ml @ 0.1EC twice daily.
🧠📝
Even a small fan dries coco pellets out very quickly.
Made sure to try and water from the sides of the pellet to encourage root expansion.
