Soaked seed for 24 hr in distilled water in an ice cube tray (at room temp, I'm using the ice cube tray to do 4 seeds in smaller than using less glasses).
Then transferred to wet tissue paper that I kept in the dark, until the tap root is a about 3-5cm long.
I then made a hole just deeper than the tap root, place the seed in with the tap root extending down lightly cover with medium and water with spray bottle.
Cover with a plastic bottle, with some water sprayed on the inside to keep humidity up.
Currently only running the veg and bloom array on my light, don't want to use the strong array while they are only seedlings
a little crinkly looking at first, but she is looking better now. Starting to feed her nutes adn removed the humidity some as she is close to outgrowing it
Not much of note really. She is coming along nicely , rowing well, not stretching no obvious deficiencies. The medium is maybe a bit loose around her as she appears to shift when I water. I've been packing the medium down a bit around the stem and will also water more slowly
Day 18
She's growing well but not quite ready for topping yet. maybe a few more days. I'm keen to try topping on all the plants in this run, as long as they look healthy enough
She's looking pretty healthy, except for a slight yellowing in some of the newer growth, which I think is down to over watering.
So I will make sure to let her dry out before the next watering.
I plan to top her after the 5th node (for comparison to another plant I have topped at node 4 this run.
Day 22
watered with 2ml Cal mag, 2ml micro, 4ml bloom 1ml karma all per gallon. Made up 1L and added 1ml extra micro as she is showing signs of what i think is nitrogen deficiency (yellow blotches on levels and generally pale green leaves) Ph 6.2
Watered most of pot except far outer edge
I also decided I am not going to top this plant, so I can apply LST in the same way as a plant I have topped adn compare the two.
Day 26
I bought an EC pen this week so have started monitoring my run off and adjusting feed accordingly. She seems to respond well to that and her leaves are now a healthier dark green, as they were a bit pale, lime and yellow in places.
Training is going well, I've put her in a pony tail, to get some light to the lower shoots.
Day 31, I removed all the ties and trimmed any fan leaves that were in the way . Adjusted my pot so the edges were closer to the media surface. She's got soem pretty huge internodal spacing and is growing tall. So there is plenty of light getting to all the tops Not sure if there is much point training those higher tops, but I'm doing it anyway.
