dwcguru Seeds were in small Coco pots and a 100W veg grow light provided heat for better germination (about 15k Lux what is probably too much^^)
I also like to use a light source for heating the substrate and run it 24/0 because it prevents the seedlings getting long necks when they stuck their head out of the substrate and coincidentally it is night.
I switch to 18/6 about 1-2 days later.
On VT2, Lady was transplanted into the 3l Airpot. The other 2 seedlings will be killed because I always have the problem to harvest waaaaaay to much and one plant is enough 😞
I started with a veeery light PH adjusted nutrient solution right away 😊

dwcguru Little lady is a bit light green but I increased the nutrients a bit and enabled my automatic watering again. Part of automatic watering is a 3d printed self-draining saucer that was especially designes for 3l Airpots to fit on the posts perfectly. It's specialty is that the saucer is slightly shaped like a funnel, so it collects the drain automatically on the outlet. Here is the 3d-model if someone needs it: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5341952
The pump for the nutrient solution is a small peristaltic pump that is connected to a relay board on a Raspberry Pi.
Also new is a piezo-pump that bubbles my NL reservoir. Not sure if this has any positive effects but work needed was small and it's unhearable silent. So why not 😜
dwcguru Plant ist developing fast and nicely 😊 Switched to a DIY E27 panel with 16 sockets on 50x50. Currently using 8x Philips CorePro @ 6500K. The plant seems to like it 🙏
My current nutrient mix: 10l RO water + 3l tap water + 6ml CalMag (~0,4) + 9ml Canna Coco A + 9ml Canna Coco B (~0.4) + 2.5ml PH-. Total EC of about 0.8

dwcguru Plant showed weird deficiencies. Probably I waited to long with increasing the EC. But new leafs are perfectly healthy. Currently running with 10l RO, 3l TW, 6ml CalMag, 19ml Canna Coco A + B + 2ml PH-
I switched to 12/12 after 2 weeks. Let's see how it goes
dwcguru Lady stretching a lot 🤯 And she is consuming about 1.5 liters daily! I noticed a bit of purpel leaves, but ... 🤷♂️

dwcguru Reduced EC from 1.2 to 1.0. There was some salt builtup (drain EC 2.0). I think I missed to reduce the nutrients after stretch stopped (as always^^). Besides of this, Lady looks fantastic and buds are nicely expanding from day to day 😍
I see a (dry) 100g+ harvest coming with a single plant ... 3l Airpot + automatic watering is a beast! 😋

dwcguru Stopped feeding Canna Coco A + B. Only tap water + RO water + CalMag. I think 15 days to go.
