I planted the seeds on Sept. 27 and they took anywhere from 3-5 days to pop up with the exception of the one White OG that came up later with the seed still on it. I’ve carefully sprayed it with water to help loosen up the seed cap. I have a humidifier in the tent to keep humidity above 50%. Watering daily with small amounts of dechlorinated tap water.
Today is day 28 from the day they sprouted. I transplanted them from the cell pots to 1.5 gallon pots on day 24. I used 70% coco, 20% earth worm castings and 10% perlite. I added Gaia Green 4-4-4 at 4 tbsp per gallon. I also sprinkled mycorrhizae on the roots before setting them in the pots. I also topped 1,2,6 & 8 on day 27 to manage canopy height.
I transplanted to 3 gal fabric pots on day 47. I will let them recover for a few days then I will switch to flower. Plants are healthy and ready to flower!
I started flowering light cycle 12/12 on day 51. I started defoliating 5 days later. I will wait until week 3 of flowering before my heavy defoliation.
Google says 1 tablespoon = 14.7ml, Canuck's one video says he used 2tsp/gal, another video said 3tsp/gal. of the Gaia 4-4-4. How much is too much? I think I added 6tsp/gal to mine by mistake.
@cannydoit, my understanding is that because it’s time released, you really can’t give it too much. The plant will only uptake what it needs. You just have to adjust the next feeding. I usually let them go about 4 weeks. Canuck used to use 1 tbsp more than recommended but now he uses the recommended amount. I think you’re fine by giving that amount.
Nice set up! Excited to watch you grow this out. I’m doing something similar but swapped out the Gaia nutes for Down to Earth, check mine out if you can.
