~ 1st week ~
Jacks acclimatized nicely to the conditions in the grow room (i try to make them as good as possible).
They have already developed their first true leaves this week.
At the end of the week, two more plants - Sweet Zenzations - came to the grow room, filling the rest of the free space.
Starting from seedlings, throughout the vegetative phase, the plants will be well nourished with HESI nutrients two times a week :
· Root Complex - 5 ml / 1 l of water
· TNT Complex - 5 ml / 1 l of water
· SuperVit - 1 drop / 5 l of water
The substrate in the pots is a half and half mixture of peat soil and coconut fiber with a small addition of perlite.
This time i also added a bit of grind hemp fiber into the substrate (about 10%).
The room temperature is set at 28°C in light and 20°C in darkness.
Lamps hung at a height of 40 cm above the plants and set to 20% power for now - according to the manufacturer's recommendations and my own previous positive experience.
Also due to my previous experience i am NOT going to use any 'techniques' nor 'train' plants - unless necessary.
Hope, that will not be necessary. All i'm going to do is feed the plants and please them, not torment them.
Besides - the plants are auto-flowers, so even for this reason no 'techniques' are likely to come into play.
And very well - harvest will be earlier.
