this picture was at 58 hours since seed planted directly in soil, which is combination worm cast and peat. I added the seed to water for less than a minute to soak and made a 1/4 to 1/3 inch deep hole. For a strong start I packed the soil above somewhat tight. When I watered I created an outward flow in a single direction to encourage roots to spread quick and outward.
I have been away for a bit since my last diary, which did not flower well. This time I hope my choice in autoflower seed is helpful, as well I am considering liquefied nutrients, particularly for the final bloom stage.
veg week 2: a day or two before adding top soil of nutrients, I fed the plant at sunrise and with a strong enough breeze she burped. Leaving me to understand two things, one - regular schedule of feeding water is important, and two - maybe if she burped its ok to add the nutrients and hope for a good season.
Day 23 - 2nd day of 26W FL light bulb, canopy is a bit fuller and about 1/2 in. taller. She is drinking slow. Window site is very cool only 15c outside at mid day. I am guessing this is the front end of Hurricane Elsa, we just had 2 weeks of clouds from Michigan, another 2 weeks of clouds in the forecast. Time to look at grow tents, one on display caught my attention.
