As this is an autoflower, the last thing I want to do is to cause any issues in retarding this plant as the clock starts after germination. I chose my no till earthbox that was used previously and is teeming with microbes, and earthworms. I last top dressed with nutrients about 9 weeks ago before putting my previous grow into flower. I pulled the old root ball out and replaced the divot with Build a Soil 3.0. Placed seed in new soil to avoid the abundance of life the earthbox contains as rove beetles and springtails abound in the soil. Soil is still moist from last grow even though the reservoir has been emptied for several weeks. I placed the seed directly in substrate. Used BB+ and Rootwise Mycrobe complete. Placed a plastic lid on top to retain moisture and warmth and set light on for 24 hours. May reduce the light to 18 hours after the seedling starts to grow. Just closed the tent to await germination. UPDATE: Seed germinated. Added pic. Will lightly mist the humis layer daily and watch her rip... I really like the idea of using Beauvaria Bassaria as it will inoculate the plant and turn pests into food. I turned down light and will top dress with Build A Flower Top Dress and Craft Blend, both from BuildASoil after a few days of growth...
@MarcGrows, Unfortunately I'm a pothead and just remembered the run I'm doing now is another breeder, but i have the 420 ones ad a few other strains from them that will be run ASAP :) Your stuff is looking literally picture perfect, great job, cant wait to see the final outcome!
@Fast_Buds, this was my best auto grow I have experienced to date. Terrific quality and quantity. I am incredibly pleased with this strain's genetics. Thank you!π
