The Raw Genetics grow is up, out, and most are about. These seeds struggled shedding their shells. I think only one made it without any assistance. Which I am getting much better at. I generally put seed in Root Riot cube, tap down, and cover with about 3/4 inch finely shredded, moistened, Coco. Sometimes they do perfect sometimes they don't. Such is life. Now from one beginner to another whoever in the hell reads this. If you assist in removing your shell, make sure that the thin inner membrane is completely removed from the cotyledons or it will twist, delay, and possibly stunt the plants growth. Like the Apple Tart and the 1 SlurriKing. Also, I have found that hypo needles, tweezers, moisture and believe it or not, the pick end of dental floss singles work well in assisting.
These plants stayed in a great Bay window until day 7 and then I placed them in the "Seedling Area" under a DIY 150w LED. If they continue to thrive, I will place them in their home tent until harvest.
I experimented 😬 with the seedlings that had developed leaf sets by giving them a very, very, very, diluted dose of Cal-Mag plus. I think my plants struggle with Mag from early on.
4 Southern Zlush in Hydro are up and strong
?2 SlurriKing in Soil One strong and one got membrained and is questionable on Veg.
?1 Apple Tart in Soil got membrained and is struggling to Veg.
FYI- I will be gathering some strain info (if I can find) 👻 and post some major highlights of each strain. I just can't remember right now the Burnt Orange Cookies are hammering me... in a good way! 😁
Hopefully the LED lights in the nursery will slow down the strangeness. Not a problem, very shortly, with the exception of the Twisted SlurriKing will be moved to their respective final homes under the 450w LED in the 5 x 5. At that time, I will plant the long ones just a little bit lower.
I reluctantly increased the PPM to +/- 500. I believe my last grow would have benefited from some small amounts of nutrients at this point. I know, I know, I have heard that the cotyledons have all the nutrients that your plant needs for the first 30 days. Live yes, Thrive no. They may have enough to allow the plant to survive but I, with my little experience, almost guarantee that you will see some sort of deficiency if you don't supplement just a little. I am experimenting with this grow. We will see. Next post will probably be of fried seedlings. 😱💀
I'm getting the Hydro buckets clean as I am typing this. Gonna give it another shot. I don't think I will ScrOG with this run. Who knows... I reserve the right to change my mind 3 of 4 times over the course of the next few weeks.
Oh, did I mention that I... yes me and my continuing battle with valves flooded the basement where I grow. I figured somewhere in the neighborhood of around 200 gallons.😖 I surrender. 😵 Man... my dumb stoned ass can't remember to turn the reservoir fill valve off to either one of my systems. Maybe one day.
Got the girls feet wet. Nothing complicated. I moved the seedlings from the small tent to their final home. Air stones under the net pot. Water level about an inch above the bottom of the net pot. Clay pebbles to top of water. Place the Root Riot cube in the net pot on top of the pebbles and surround with remaining pebbles, and cross fingers 🙏🙏🙏. As I said in another posting... I am just not real confident in my skills.
Just General Hydroponics 3 part with my hydroponics. I am using Lotus with my soil grows.
Everyone seems to be pretty happy with their digs. Now... hopefully we can begin building some good growth.
Thanks for checking my grow out. I am open to any suggestions of ideas. I have a bunch to learn 😛
They are growing as expected. One girl is sort of dragging behind the others. May be around 3 or 4 nodes. I am going to try and top these around 5 to 6. I think I have been going a bit to far in the past.
They look healthy. A good number of roots have made it down and into the water.
Creeping up on the Nutrients, adding a little Cal-mag to the mix.
Truely amazing how much energy 1 little seed has stored.
Also, going to hit them with some light neem oil and water early on to try and prevent some of my pest issues.
Thanks for checking me out.
Hydro Zlushie. Getting ready to top. 3 plants are almost the same size with one girl lagging behind and just slightly smaller than the others. I am going to hope these all stay about the same size.
I haven't decided whether to move these to the larger light in the "Flower Room" or just leave them be right where they grow. Decisions, decisions.
I am slowly increasing the nutrients. Might try topping them out at around 1000 ppm.
Changed the reservoir, I am a believer in the Hydrogaurd, so I added it. It's just expensive as hell.
Interested to see these ladies flower.
Thanks for checking me out. I would love to hear your secret tips and Bro science. Any and all advice appreciated. Peace! 🙏
Up, Up and away. Man, I stay behind... but definitely getting my grow on.
Car blew up, well engine did, on the way to the Mtns last Fri. What a pain in the ass. Note to one's self. Ricky and the boys were right. Cannabis spends as well or better than cash. No joke... If I would have had more than just my stash we could have stayed an extra week and been chauffeured home. Instead, add on extra night, Uber's, rent a cars, then U-Haul with auto trailer to tow 400 miles home to the Hyundai place that can't fix it for 4 months. Enough of that.
Just took a couple of the huge leaves and the ones dragging at the bottoms.
All is fairly smooth at the present. Thanks for stopping by. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated. 🙏
One grow... just one grow, I would like to not be always rushed on. Seems like life "locks in low" when I need to spend the most time in the garden.
Topped all but one this week. She will get it in a day or two.
Feeding recommended ratios as per Manufacture, but lower ppms as per experience.
Strangely enough, the biggest and healthiest plant is mostly under a DIY light.
Light is at 80%, PPFD's around 700
Reservoir change. I am not using.... but is this about where I should add PURPLENAITOR?
Thanx for taking a look see at my weedee. Any tips or bro/sis science would be welcomed.
