Marathon OG Auto // DarkOwl // DWC

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 1 (Mar 05, 2022) I'll be starting day/week count from this germination date. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hour 0 (Mar 5, 2022 // 12:00am) - Germinated at 12:00am in DVD case and paper towel misted with tap water. - Wrapped in a black t-shirt and placed in starter dome with a heat-mat set to 28c. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 2 (Mar 6, 2022) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6:00pm (Hour 36) - Germination check: Marathon OG seed has popped a tap root and germinated successfully. Lightly misted paper towel. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 3 (Mar 7, 2022) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12:00am (Hour 48) - Transplanted into Rapid Rooter, misted with tap water then placed in starter dome with heat-mat set to 28C. - Added T5 light above dome and set to 20/4 schedule. 12:00pm - Misted with tap water. 6:00pm - Roots showing - Misted rapid rooter plug with seedling solution (1 L RO water + 1ml of Orca + 0.25ml of Microbial Mass and 0.25ml of Rapid Start) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 4 (Mar 8, 2022) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12:00am - Misted with seedling solution (1 L RO water + 1ml of Orca + 0.25ml of Microbial Mass and 0.25ml of Rapid Start) 2:00am - Mixed solution in flexitank and filled single-site system. 28L RO Water 0.5ml/l of Rapid Start (mixed in flexitank) 0.6ml/l of AN Coco Grow A+B (mixed in flexitank) Resulting Values: PPM 200 Temp: 60F PH 6.0 - Pumped water into single-site system for conditioning and leak check. I added and filled Current Culture 8" net pot with hydroton clay pebbles up to the top of the platform (cavity underneath) inside the net pot. I leveled out the pebbles to create one layer of pebbles over the platform where the rapid rooter will reside. Then I let the misting of air stones and waterfalls wet the hydroton while the solution runs in the system for the day. I should also note the level of water is 3" from the bottom of the net pot. Air gap is so important, and the misting is sufficient to encourage the roots to get into the water. 9:00am - Misted with seedling solution (1 L RO water + 1ml of Orca + 0.25ml of Microbial Mass and 0.25ml of Rapid Start) 6:00pm - Misted with seedling solution (1 L RO water + 1ml of Orca + 0.25ml of Microbial Mass and 0.25ml of Rapid Start) 9:00pm - Added 0.5ml/l of Microbial Mass Pro to system. (28L x 0.5ml/l = 14ml). Added to 500ml water in a water bottle, shake and pour into the reservoir. PPM raised 20ppm. I added MM just before I transplanted because its more economical as it requires a dosage every two weeks. - Transplanted seedling into single-site RDWC system. - When transplanted, then I carefully place the rapid rooter and situate it so the visible tap root shooting out of the bottom of the rapid rooter is in between the pebbles for a straight shot into the bucket. Its been a a 50/50 if it helps at all. Sometimes the root gets lost but always finds it's way. Air: Temp: 78F Humidity: 70% Water: PPM: 220 Temp: 69F PH: 6.1 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 5 (Mar 9, 2022) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Air: Temp: 78F Humidity: 70% Water: PPM: 220 Temp: 73F PH: 6.3 - Today I'm paying attention to environment values as I just moved to a new residence last month and I'm dialing in the environment with new variables and logistics. The tent is in a basement spare bedroom with an exterior window and I'm hoping for a cool environment. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 6 (Mar 10, 2022) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Air: Temp: 78F Humidity: 70% Water: PPM: 220 Temp: 69F PH: 6.4 - Not quite finished with building and installing panel for window ventilation and AC, so I’ve cracked a window to lower the reservoir temp as it hit 74F on it's own yesterday. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 7 (Mar 11 , 2022) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Air: Temp: 78F Humidity: 70% Water: PPM: 240 Temp: 69F PH: 6.6 - Just keeping the tent warm and humid. Will check roots tomorrow.
