Day 3 of germination and all three seedlings are happily sprouting! What length of root do I need before putting into soil mix?
Edit: Day 3 - Seedling have sprouted and have been planted!
Day 4 - checked on the girls and one has already broke through the soil! The other 2 haven’t emerged yet, but I hope to see them tomorrow!
Day 5 - One lil girl is growing strong, still waiting on the other 2 to breakthrough!
Edit Day 5 - Went to peek at the dirt and #2 is emerging and #1 has already gotten taller! Can’t wait to see my Timelapse!
Day 1 of week 2 - Bagged #1 of 3 sprouts. I will be getting the auto watering started in the next day or so and I hope to bag the other plants as well in next day or so.
Day 1 edit - #2 sprout planted in hydro pot and also added some Gaia Green Organics - Power Bloom into the soil of the two planted sprouts.
I received my PH & TDS/EC meters today…. and I’m clueless as what I do with them. But I know I need to use them in monitoring the chemical balances and such in the water and soil etc.
Any direction to some “how to” guides or step-by-steps on how I use these meters correctly? Tx
Heh, I see some people say this pH meter is garbage. Well, that’s wrong statement. Such pH meters are pretty accurate IF they are calibrated properly and sensor is stored in pH 7 solution. Never let the sensor dry out and never use distilled/ro water for storing. Such water can only be used to rinse the sensor after each use. Then add enough pH 7 or 6.86 calibration solution into the cap to soak the sensor completely, and close it. You’ll see, this method keeps your meter alive and precise for a long time. You really need some good amount of pH 4.01, 6.86, 9.13 calibration solutions or powders to keep the sensor working.
EC meter doesn’t require any special care except rinse in distilled water after each use and shaking off/blowing compressed air to make it dry. Good luck.
This past week I was out of town. However, I set up an auto watering system for two girls and one lived off the auto pot.
Seedling 1 - Largest in clear container
Seedling 2 - Autopot
Seedling 3 - The “Late Arriver”
I monitored the process and tent while away and was not let down. Came home to the nutrients finally being delivered, so the girls received fresh water with a first dose of “minerals and food.”
I’m just stoked they survived in my absence!
Almost to week 9 and signs of buds are everywhere. 3 of 3 plants still thriving, had a few scares of losing two of them but they bounced back and are producing, so they were not tossed. Not much to report other than still growing and I’m patiently waiting to see the buds get bigger and harvest them!
We are a few days before beginning our 12th week on the 17th. They are growing big and beautiful….but appear differently, which I can’t figure out why that is…..
Easy to grow, as I had researched. Being my first attempt I was surprised to have all 3 seeds survive to harvest. In the beginning I had only prepared to grow one plant! So I feel in that process I may have made a few mistakes with timing, temp, etc. I definitely learned a ton and had a great time doing so. As far as effects and such….I’ll leave that feedback on the next grow of this strain….now that I have more experience and know things to do and prepare for etc. Still enjoyable though…..I WILL say that!
This was my first grow. Easier than I expected, I made a few mistakes but learned a lot! Great harvest from 3 healthy plants at the end. Had a blast and already on my next grow!
