February 24th - Germinated 2 Candy Kush Express seeds and tried out Plagron Seedbooster Plus for the first time. Both seeds sprouted nicely and were ready to be transplanted into pots on Sunday, February 26th.
My only concern is that I had to set up the tent again after neglecting it for a while, and I'm worried that some fungus might have developed due to the moisture in which the fabric was stored. We'll see what the next few days bring!
The girls are growing well. I was surprised to see a nice first pair of leaves only 2 days after transplanting the germinated seeds in a pot (I guess the seedbooster had something to do with it)
Even though I got very scared : at the beginning, the dark cycle was happening during the night, and the near zero temperatures outside made the temperature in the room where my tent is located drop. The first 2 nights, the temperature went down to 16 degrees in the tent, despite the use of a heating mat.
I have now staggered the light cycle so that the lamp goes off during the day (10.30AM - 4.30PM) and I have installed a temperature sensor in the substrate that triggers the heat mat if the temperature drops below 20 degrees. Since then, no more worries :)
Veg+2: I installed an automatic watering system that gives about 250ml per plant, which I will increase as I go along. It is mineral water with RQS Easy Grow, with a pH adjusted to 6.5
Veg+5: They seem to be growing exponentially now! excited to see what's coming up in the next few days!
The girls are starting to develop their 3rd pair of leaves. The first ones seem to be twisting slightly, I have reduced the amount of daily watering for the moment, we will see in a few days.
If you have any tips on how to make my substrate retain a little less water, I'd love to know 😏
I'm back with another update on my lovely ladies, who are doing just splendidly! They've been growing strong and healthy, and despite one of them showing some "burned tips," I'm hoping it's not a case of nutrient burn because I've been super careful not to overdo it with the nutrients.
Speaking of growth, my girls have been staying very compact lately. They're like little bundles of joy that just won't quit. And while I tried my hand at some low-stress training, it's been quite the challenge due to their compactness. But that's okay, we'll work with what we've got and keep on keeping on!
Overall, I'm really happy with how things are progressing. I'm switching to 12-12 tomorrow, hopefully they are gonna stretch a bit so I can improve on the LST!
Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, happy growing! 👊
