Oh, I am nervous. Its my first time in a long time...…. hopefully this doesn't end as bad as the first time these feelings came up. Very quick and very disappointing.😅
11/26- At around 7:30pm these autos got put into Ice Mountain Spring Water temped to 68 degrees. After just 3 hrs 2 have already sunk to the bottom.
11/27- Its been 12 hrs and all but 1 of the Cinderella Jack have dropped.
11/27- The last straggler sunk after 18 hours. At around noon, I transferred the seeds into paper towels. Then put the paper towel into small baggies.
11/29- Seeds have been germinating in paper towels for around 30 hrs. They are starting to show taproots. The Fastbuds are just that FAST. They were showing taproots in under 12 hrs. One was over a half inch.
11/29- At around 6pm, I transferred these little ladies into a cup and a half of some naked Happy Frog and placed in the germination dome.
11/30- At 2:30am these gals got their first dose of light. Since I'm a born again grow-virgin and have never messed with autoflowers. I'm going to just keep the traditional 18/6 lighting schedule.
11/30- With less than 6 hours of light I already have 2 sprouted around 1 inch. The Fastbuds green crack seeds seem to be outperforming the others. The Dutch Passion seeds are performing too but the Fastbuds are impressive.
Note: These seeds are germinating under a 7.83hrz frequency. It is coming from a small 4" subwoofer connected to 2 small speakers hung in the top corner of my tent. I plan to continue though to harvest. My thinking that if our goal is to mimic the conditions outdoors why not amplify everything we can. 7.83hrz is the natural frequency omitted by the earth and can be nothing but beneficial. To my research it should help the plant develop on a molecular level.
12/2- All 6 are looking good. Keeping temp around 76 and RH 80-85%. Using a reptile fogger as a humidifier and I'm happy to report it works beautifully.
12/3- Going smoothly. Keeping soil moist and conditions right.
Over the last 10 days these girls have gotten large enough really take on some LST.
On Xmas morning, one of these girl was full of Christmas cheer and gave me a gift. Sour Diesel #2 started flowering!
Extra info:
Leaf temp: 78-82
Night Time RH%: 55
All nutrients listed above are per gallon of media. These ladies are in 5 gallon buckets with a SIP system inserted. I altered my SIP system to include a 4' airstone mounted to the bottom center of the bucket. I'm still calling it 5 gallons even though its probably closer to 4-4.25 gallons of media.
They're also being subjected to a speaker system providing a 7.3hrz frequency.
