Today I start again a pair of seed who gave me bad times (my previous batch got a bad case of root rot : they grew so much that they blocked the water circulation holes in my system ... )
But I pimped a bit my waterfarms, and now ... BRING'EM ON!
Easy germination phase, nice strong roots after 3 days in wet cotton pads, I quickly transferred them to the rockwool cubes (ending, as usual, with a spoon of soil to fill the hole).
Two more days, and the little guys were already running for the light !
Not a very good start : They went out of seed nicely, but i made the mistake to put them too early under hydroponics :
The drops from the system damaged the first pair of leaves of the smallest, and it's still recovering.
This time, no scrog, no LST, nothing ... I let them grow as they wish :)
They are not doing so well. One of them is normal, but the smallest got to much water drops on the leaves during first days. It's still fighting for recovery ...
If it's not big enough for flowering in 3 weeks, I'll use a sprout of Sugar Bomb Punch to the batch to take it's place ...
This batch is not starting very well because of my mistakes, but the plants are doing their best to recover.
The flood victim will take a place in the weed cemetery at the end of the week ...
On the good side, all plant have strong long roots, and they'll get their final pots next week after a - too - long wait
Last week before goinf 12-12.
They adapted quite well to their new pots, even if a broke some big roots in the process ....
I'm still not sure of the sprout strain ... It's a Sugar Bomb Punch (most likely) or a real second Bubba Island Kush ... I hope i'll be able to figure out in the end.
The first batch of my permafrost garden is coming to flowering ... Each month, 2 plants go out, 2 plants - waiting as sprouts - come in !
The bubba is quite nice and the sprout have a strange look but bith are growing peacefully ...
Slow grow, but I don't put pressure ...
Still trying to figure if the strange one is a Bubba Island Kush like her seed sister or a Sugar Bomb Punch ...
The leaves seems quite similar ... but Bubba & Sugar are quite similar looking anyway ....
New light system this week : I went to a MHS Hid 600 watt to a Zeus Lumatek 465 watt LED System.
All I have to say is : They seem to like it after two days.
I stay at 50 % then 75% of maximum light system power for a few days before going full speed !
I had to double the harvest value, the system can't handle the fact that i'm using only one half of the room for this grow if you don't pick a corrrect light value.
