Really excited to get the first 2 Mephisto beans in the Jiffy pods. I let them expand, pulled the top netting a little for better expansion and then broke the top bit of it up before placing the seeds in and covering gently. Put them in a 2x2x4 tent with the dome on and sitting on a heating bad for overnight. Will take them off the pad in the morning when I burp so that they don't get overly hot.
Germ day 1-Hygrometer said temp on the pad was about 90 so I took them off that, shut that off and put the dome back on. Humidity was looking good and I will burp again sometime after lunch and then around 10pm tonight.
Took about 4 days to push above but they took off after that. 6/28 Will be day 1
**I'm looking to apply a number of changes from my first grow to this run: 5 gallon Smart pots over 3gal plastic, I'm going to do an expanded clay liner in the bottom for base aeration and then I'm looking at using a living soil that will hopefully be a little more forgiving of newbie mistakes. I'm currently researching Coast of Maine and Great Lakes Water Only soils so if anyone has any experience please feel free to comment or message. Hydro store sold out of GLWO so decided to go with CocoLoco again this time doing a 20% mix with Perlite.
