Original Sour Diesel - coco grow

Light power consumption: 102 watt Hello fellow growers! The girls are progressing nicely. Not the fastest growth rate, but they are looking healthy and they are getting bigger every day. I started this week by transplanting them into AirRap pots. I had only three 2 L pots, bought another three, but it turned out those were 1,5 L and had a different shape. Hence, three girls are now in 2 L pots and two girls in 1.5 L pots. The sixth seedling was never able to shake off her shelf and stopped growing. I removed her shelf by force, but it became clear that the cotyledons never fully developed. I tossed her on day 12. From the five girls that are left, only three will be selected to flower. And as it looks now, it will be the three in the 2 L pots. The bigger pots caused RH to rise, hence, on day 9 I installed the exhaust fan. Currently, it’s running at almost the slowest setting. The day after I increased the power of the light to 102 watts (while 320 watts is the maximum). Due to the repotting to higher pots on day 8, they were already a bit closer to the light. During this week, I increased EC slowly to the current 1,0 mS/cm. I’m fertigating once a day and on day 10 and day 14 I gave the young plants a ‘maximum CalMag mix’ at target EC (so no other nutrients, just CalMag water at pH 6,2), to prevent any CalMag issues. The girls have been growing very similar until now. Roxanne, Sophia and Tiffany are pretty much similar size and they are in the 2 L pots. Ulrika and Vivian are a tad bit smaller, but they seem to grow at the same rate, they’re just 2 days behind. Tiffany seems a little bit lighter green than the others. Besides that, the plants look very similar, in fact, this is the fifth strain I’m growing and I haven’t seen such similarity between plants from seeds of the same strain before. The five girls are introduced in the pictures individually (my camera has a hard time setting the correct white balance, therefor, in the pictures colors might differ, but in reality, the plants are pretty much the same color). Well, this is the end of the seedling stage, the girls are now in early veg. Next week I’ll start to make some preparations for the automated fertigation system and I’ll prepare a large load of coco, because they will be transferred to their final pots in week 4. Thanks for visiting my diary and happy growing!
