Just put seeds in rockwool last night. Using two 5 gallon bubbleponics buckets with a top feed and gravity fed reservoir. Top feed with gravity fed reservoir circulates a flow to each plant of about 5 per hour. Each bucket holds about 3 gallons and reservoir 2 gallons making system 8 gallons. Geminating seeds directly in the rockwool in its present container. Growing in a custom L shaped grow room 5x10 + 5x8 (about 90 square feet area), along with other plants.
4 days from seed to sprout.😀 for the 1st one, hope to see the 2nd Tangie sprout any day now.
Unfortunately Tangie is now a 1 bucket system with a reservoir. #2 sprouted barely and didn't move forward.
Tang had a rough start, mostly I believe due to pH meter seriously needing to be calibrated. So unfortunately had to trim a couple of damaged leaves off. Way to young to have to go through that, yet I believed it was necessary.
7-23: Again problems with pH, meter got dropped and waiting for replacement. Also lost a lot of water due to a leak. Had to add bout a gallon to reservoir and contemplating how much nutrients she lost. Trying to follow Fast Buds feed chart.
7-26: I'm sure I lost a few days for her to recover, yet she seems to be moving along. Today she is about 4 inches tall. Should be having a new pH meter arrive today. 😀
7-30: was so so glad to get the pH meter. Been guessing using a pool pH test kit, didn't do horribly bad. PH was about 6.8 when tested it.
8-3: Been trying to deal with a possible calcium deficiency and have not been pleased with the results I've on her as well as other plants we are going. Going to try something different, thinking there's a possibility it's not a deficiency yet rather a toxicity situation. So did a thorough flush and am slowly adding grow and boom nutrients back. See what happens.
