They all popped out around 4 days after left directly in rockwool cube. This time I haven't left the seeds soaking in a glass of water for a while like I used to and they turned out just fine. So I'm sticking to this method from now on as I haven't lost any seeds since using it. This grow I'm using CANNA Terra Professional as substrate for the first time instead the soil mix I've been using since my first grow.

I just harvested this strain and I'm looking forward to try to push it this time to get a better outcome than the previous one. I want to try something new every grow and I'm running out of ideas so I'd appreciate some suggestions on the comments. Cheers.

She is healthy and seems to be growing well. The nuts program is starting to take off so I'm expecting some good growth by next week. Keeping a close eye now.

This week I installed a custom made irrigation system using some tubes and submersible pump. The pump is too strong and the water is being feeded to fast in time to the substrate to absorb. But it seems to be working. Just need some adjusting. The plant is growing well so I'm increasing the lights to 100%.

So she is growing a lot but not in height so I'm not taking the topping / defoliation this week yet. I'm guessing they are going to grow slowly so I'm extending the bloom phase until I'm happy with the height. I had to add some taps to control the flow on my irrigation system. It looks even cooler now.

This was a busy week. I done defoliation, topping and got the plant started on the training. She's responding well but I'll need to check every day to change the lights as soon she is 100% recovered.

Hey there. Seems like you’re doing alright with your grows, but In response to your request for some tips I’d start by saying I’m an outdoor grower with limited indoor experience. Number one tip is use pH and TDS meters (I think lots of people just try to guesstimate and that’s just not worth it). I use vinegar to adjust pH and it doesn’t take much in some waters. Number two is fermented plant juice, specifically the cannabis tops picked in early morning (or at lights on). FPJ can be made with all kinds of things, but cannabis tops are great if you can get them. That FPJ is very potent and it seems a few low strength doses is all it takes. Number 3 is mainlining your indoor plants to control shape. A bit scary at first but gets easier with practice. See Nebula Haze tutorial. Number 4 is kelp4less.com for kelp and humic acid blend, and Gaia Green for Power Bloom. And experience. Just try stuff and see what works. And study up on Growdiaries but that’s a given since you’re already here. Cheers.

@GrowwUp, you’re welcome. It was fun to try and think what the main tips would be. Good luck.

@Northern_Ent, Wow. That's a very appreciated comment! I'll sure have a look in some of those which I haven't even heard about and new knowledge is always welcomed so thank you! I use a TDS & PH meters and I keep an close eye in both of those since my first grow. Mainlining is something that I've been looking forward to try for a while. Thanks for the motivation!
