Can't believe how it's doubled in size over a week!
Leaves have also become a nice dark green instead of the yellow-green of earlier weeks.
- Increased light intensity to 50% (300w).
- Made a custom worm tea (24 hours of aerated homemade worm castings in a large jar of water and molases).
- Bought some bat guano powder since my phosphorus levels are non existent and I think it may be required even if it's still vegetative state. Just waiting for 48 hours now until the bat guano tea is ready then will feed this week and see how happy it grows.
- Contemplating another worm tea feed this week since it's living soil and most sources tell me it's impossible to overdo the nutrients this way since they're for the soil microbes and not absorbed directly by the plant itself... Fingers crossed!
@KINGT88, no just one for now. As soon as I start topping for ScrOg, I plan to clone the little tops.
If all goes well, these extra seeds can be given to friends. Let's see....
Best of luck on your grows! Gonna be watching this one, curious how she's gonna finish up..
I was curious what brand of worm castings your using for the tea u make ? I'd like to apply it to my next grow to boost things alil better. And feel safer buying a brand someone else uses lol. I know my home depot carries some just not sure of its brand off hand. But gotta order some stuff from Amazon I'll tag worm castings on there.
Again best of luck and HAPPY NEW YEAR !!
Thanks so much, @Grow4Releaf!! I'm kind of winging it as I go and reading lots from others here and on Reddit (r/microgrowery and r/autoflowers).
To be honest I have my own 30x30cm worm farm in my kitchen. Feed them regularly with food scraps (banana peels, fruit veg offcuts) and tea leaves/coffee beans. Super simple, barely takes up space and they need little care(doesn't stink or anything). This way I know what went into it and can ensure it's fresh and full of microbes when I make my own tea.
https://www.redwormcomposting.com/fun-stuff/my-new-wooden-flow-through-bin/ this one is similar to what I got if you're interested in getting into it. But you can find lots on Etsy online from others who have their own systems at home. I usually give castings to friends too - maybe approach someone locally who's a bit more eco-minded and push them into vermiculture! :)
Good luck and a very happy New Year to you!!
