Greetings everyone!
*Basically, this diary was never going to exist. Due to the lack of Utopia Haze (UH) diaries - and I am just so impressed by these genetics - I decided I will share my UH grow.
*I have started the grow with: 2 x Super Lemon Haze (SLH) (separate diary); 2 x UH (focus of this diary); 1 x Royal Queen Seeds Diesel (Auto); 1 x Mephisto Alien v triangle (Auto)
*I use: Biogrow; Biobloom; Amino acids; Humic Acids; Fulvic acids; Silica; Kelp Extract; Lemon Juice (pH down);Gypsum + Epsom salts (CalMag + Sulphur); 6:20:30 + micros fertiliser.
*The amounts used will be shown according to the appropriate week.
*I use a custom made soil/soiless mix: 40% coco coir; 40% bark mulch; 20% Perlite.
*I hand-made my light for $70 total. 384 true watt LED, 80cmx80cm with each square of lights being 30cmx30cm. I wanted optimal, even light spread and coverage.
Day 1: Emergence
The little girls have popped their heads out of the soil! Welcome to Earth!
Prior to what I considered "Day 1", all the seeds were placed under wet tissue paper for 48 hours. UH#1 was the fastest to sprout; sprouted in less than 24 hours. UH#2, and SLH#1 sprouted after approximately 36 hours. Diesel + AvT sprouted just under 48 hours. Planted into 100ml soil medium. Placed under 85w CFL 6500K.
Day 2
I sprayed the seedlings with water + kelp extract (kelpak) solution. You will notice an empty container; SLH#2 hadn’t popped yet. (more info on that in the SLH diary)
Day 4
Sprayed the seedlings with water+kelpak solution. The second set of leaves growth just starting to show.
Day 5
Poorley taken photo; attempted to show the new growth tip.
How is this your first grow lmao - your set up and technique is mad pro! I'm learning! looking forward to seeing those esthetics once your ladies really start to bloom!
@Dabout,
Ayyy she is 👌👻
While I was extremely displeased with the germination rate (1/4 seeds 😠), this lady turned out magnificently! She is stunning, and it's a pity she is stealing the limelight from the UH 😂 But, she is in the front and only having 3 main colas means she is focusing everything into them.
@MUDBUG,
I just bought them from the hardware store. I made the light from scratch; took me 12 hours but worth it for costing US$ 70 👽👌 I cut away the plastic covering these lights had to expose the LED chips.
@LeeTHaze, I have to say you've done well! You've entered a hobby at full force but like you said you planned it out! Glad to see you creating a feed and it paying off too! I'll keep following! Good luck!
@CAMOGROWN,
So I may have got a lot of things right (due to my prior preparation + research), but I still got a number of things incorrect 👻but I am a first time cannabis grower so I'm not too fazed, I will simply learn from my mistakes.
PS; I am a keen gardener. I have had many a successful harvest of herbs and vegetables 💪 so that does help a lot as well haha.
