This part of the grow is always the scariest, right? They are so fragile and sensitive: I am constantly afraid of breaking them. Nevertheless, she survived her first week! The first set of true leaves is showing and growth will become exponential from this point. For the first 5 days, I added a makeshift humidity dome made from a soda bottle, to keep the humidity up. On the last 2 days of this week, I removed the dome, and she is a bit shocked by the low humidity. Currently, it is very dry in my room, so it is quite a difference, but she will adapt. The light has been dimmed to around 40%, and I will slowly increase it to 60-70% over the next week.
To feed her, I built a slow-release fertilized soil with Greenhouse Feeding nutrients. I added 4 grams of BioGrow per litre of soil. When inserting the peat pellet into the soil, I added some beneficial bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi to set her up for the next few months. I watered with a bit of BioEnhancer, to stimulate the soil life. From now on, I only have to water with plain water and the nutrients in the soil will release over time to feed the plant.
A veces pasa. Así se va aprendiendo. Uno también inventa soluciones que les sirven a los demás. Es difícil cuando el clima manda. Animo que quedaron algunas :D
@gottagrowsometime, no definitely more broad type of leaves. A friend of mine grew these and also had broad leaves. She is also bushy and compact, so I don't think it works well in a ScrOG setup...
