Barbara was born Oct 17 but was stalled for a week or so, I eventually discovered I had aphids in the tent and a few on Barbara, just enough to keep her from growing but otherwise she looked healthy. Once they were removed and the little girl got some insecticidal soap, she bounced back and I was able to transplant her from a 1L pot to her forever home. A 5 gallon bucket with a hole in the side about 3 inches from the bottom and a plastic cylinder running down the inside. Perlite in the bottom up to the drain hole and then 70/30 coco/perlite up to the top. I transplanted Barbara and then added about a litre of water around the transplant area to encourage the roots to spread out. With the reservoir filled, I have found that the coco doesnt need too much water and the roots will seek out the moisture they sense from below.
I intend to use GH Maxibloom Lucas formula for this grow, 1 tsp/gallon of tap water with Koolbloom added during flowering. I've had some positive experiences using the LF before but never from seed to harvest. This will also be my first time trying Koolbloom, I've been making the switch from AN to GH
