Germination
3 years ago
Been waiting for along time to be able to legally grow. 4/5 14:00 Started Germination inside home closet while I finish preparing the grow tent in the outdoor garden shed. Power has been placed to the shed, tent is up and ready, however the shed temperature is still a bit cold as is the inside of the tent. Placed seed inside container on damp paper towels, and covered with warm, damp paper towels. Covered containers and placed on Seedling Heat Mat in Closet. 4/7 08:00 (G) Seed germinated with a nice little tail.... nice tails are a good sign... Yes? Planted the seed into a Roto Pod and in container and placed on the heat mat. Turn Lamp on to 40% per instruction that came with the lamp. 4/9 08:00 (G+2 days) Looks like a nice seedling is developing....

I don't know what you are seeing, but the pictures in your diary show normal, happy and healthy seedlings. If anything has changed, you will need to post some new pictures showing the exact areas of concern/problems.

4/19 (G+14 days) - Start of week 2. Nothing out of the ordinary..... 4/20 (G+15 days) - Picture shows the Auto Girl Scout plant also growing with the OG Kush. Both look really healthy and are growing like weeds now....NO pun intended... 😉 4/22 (G+17 Days) - More sets of leaves. Everything seems on track. 4/24 (G+19 Days) - Starting to have a slight smell......

Overall the week starts out with healthy plants. Started 4_29_2022 with measured small increase in liquid grow nutrient mixed with water. 5_1_2022 - Extensively researched LST to enhance yield. Decided to implement LST..... even though my first grow.... Keeping my fingers crossed. 😬

5_5_2022 - Both Plants are reacting well to LST. Not much height to either plant, but a beautiful canopy is developing. My challenge at the moment is when to begin defoliating, and the extent to defoliate to maximize yield.
