Starting out indoors with plan to try growing outdoors this year in a 15 gallon pot. I don't live in the warmest climate and it tends to snow around Halloween each year, so I'm experimenting with one plant for now. Just planted one seed into 4" pot. Environment set to around 77F and 60-65% humidity. Lights set to 378 micromoles @ 30" from soil. The seed split while soaking so I'm hoping to see it surface in the next couple days.
Update- seed sprouted on day 3, looks good so far!
Growing very well. I started nutrients this week for my other grow and the Skywalker was growing so quickly it caught up to them, so I just gave it the nutrients too. Seems to be doing really well, although it slightly drooped for a few hours. But I put a piece of wire across to support it and now it is standing strong again. Increased the PPFD to 440 and temperatures are holding steady at 72F and 50% RH. I recently learned about Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) and I am following the chart. My temp and RH equal to about 1.1 on the VPD chart for veg, which is great. This plant will be my experimental outdoor grow, so I still have plans to bring it outside into a 10 gallon Smart Pot once the weather begins to warm up where I live.
Not much action this week. This Skywalker is growing along with my Girl Scout Cookies and they are growing pretty slow. Suspect nutrient lock from high soil pH.
Diagnosed soil pH issue and nutrient lock from high pH. Flushed with 4.3 pH water and got the soil to around 6.2. Run-off was 1100 EC so I know it was nutrient locked. After the flush, it became lighter green and really perked up. Also treated with Sensi Cal. Raised PPFD to 600. Transferred to 3 gallon pot, where it will eventually be planted in a 20 gallon fabric pot to grow outside.
