-SOAKING SEEDS STARTED AT 4:15PM on 4/2/22
All of them sank by the next day with a little stirring of the water - most of them were floating before I stirred the water then they sank & stayed underwater.
-PLANTING SEEDS STARTED AT 6PM on 4/3/22
Seedling Starter Soil:
1 Coco Coir Block (hydrated with 12cups aquarium water)
About 5 cups Vermiculite
4Tbsp Down To Earth Starter Nutrients
Mycorrhizal Fungi Spring Water - watering the hole with mycorrhizal before planting seed & then again after planted.
-AFTER THE FIRST SPROUT ON 4/5/22
Turned on seedling clip light to blue only, dimmest setting @ 20%. Keeping light on for 18/6 6am-12pm
- 4/6/22 INCREASED BLUE ONLY SEEDLING LIGHT TO 50%
It seems like they were slightly stretching for light **watch for light burn on cotyledon leaves**
-4/7/22 MORNING INCREASED BLUE ONLY SEEDLING LIGHT TO 100%
The plants are stretching even more I increased light to full 100%, it'll have to keep an eye on them & make sure they don't get light burnt or topple over from reaching
-4/7/22 AFTERNOON SWITCHED LIGHT TO GIIXER
The two tallest plant cotyledon started to droop to the side so I didn't want to take a risk continuing to try the clip light only on blue @ 100%. I have the Gixxer on only veg at a distance of 10" away from the tops of the cotyledon leaves. I also cracked the lid & put an oscillating fan on low just to give them a tiny bit of movement to strengthen their stems because they'll be tall and weaker with stretching.
*I tried using a new seedling light & it was a failure - they are now stretching due to that light. I switched back to my trusted seedling light & hoping they'll be back on track.*
@Secretflower, I've had Jack Herer flower before & loved it 😍. I had a male that got very tall, I wonder how tall she'll get, but then again I'm training her so won't I really find out. I'm excited 🤗
Nice Cage set-up. I really like that approach and had been planning something parallel.
Nice idea, building support and strength into the grow from the start. Its my 2023 set-up Ms. Cheetah###
Cheers
@1Right_Angle, thanks I appreciate it 💚👍
Honestly I just kinda winged it waiting to see how the plants grew 😂 Some educated guessing & visual ideas/thoughts helped me create this technique to hopefully get the shape I was wanting. I'm happy it's working 👍 Also as time passed, I stepped back & looked with the idea in my mind of seeing another GD grower sharing pics of his plant stolen, uprooted directly from the ground. It will be a headache to try to steal these & if tried will likely kill it... Good luck thieves.
I really like this setup & I'll continue with this in future outdoor grows, especially now since I have all of the equipment 😁. (It wound up costing a total of one hundred & fifty dollars for everything... As of now I've made 7 cages of graduated fencing, 28 bamboo supports plus all trellis' netting & still have extra of all the stuff to make more. Cost about twenty dollars per plant if I only use it 1 time - I'll have all of this for many many seasons using it until it breaks)
It was pretty easy to set up, took about 30 minutes per plant to setup. So very helpful in training & I can easily access everything still with good main branch supports & for the future weight on the horizontally extended branches as well.
@BodhiBuds, thanks! I appreciate it 🙏💚 yes they get the dirty aquarium water as their water (freshwater aquarium😁). With so many fish in there the tank gets a water change about 2-3 times per week, for my growing techniques that's about the amount of water the plants need. It has great nutes & beneficial bacteria in the dirty water as well. I have never grown such green leaves since I've started using it a few years ago.
