Pink lychee

Okay so the goal is to grow indoor for the first month. Then put them outside beginning of June. Location Switzerland. I watered the the pots when I transferred the rockwool into the pots. I put voodoo juice 1ml/L. Didn’t water them for 3 days. Sorbetto: looks normal, quite good grape inferno 1: the tallest yet looks healthy Grape inferno 2: the slowest but not abnormal for the moment Pink: looks good I had some fungus gnats so I put some vinegar with soap in a bottle, didn’t work at all Day 6 post germination : added some yellow traps it seem to work I use a 150 watt HPS light It’s 60cm high from the top of the pots PPFD : 250 - 350 measures with app Photone and iPhone 14

Day 9: New home for my babies: I borrowed a HUGE BOX from a friend. Dimension: 120x120x180cm. This is fucking huge for the size of my bedroom. Actually I don’t sleep there anymore. I controls the plants and they also control me. It’s funny how I get so passionate about this. I love taking care of my babies and learn how to raise them properly. Their mother is certainly very happy to not have this huge noisy box at her home 😂 Who is the mother of the plants ? Well, for the sake of anonymity, we will call her Marie. Although she is not the primary caregiver of the babies, she is certainly an important one. Without her, there would be any babies. She provides a safe outdoor environment for everyone. Okay now that you know Marie let’s back the journal. In the box, I put the 250w lamps. The temperature inside doesn’t go higher that 27 degrees celcius. I have three little fan. I don’t want the plant to burn so that’s why I put that many. I don’t know if it’s the best though … I’m learning. Humidity varies between 60 and 40%. Day 11: I see the GI 1 and the pink are stretching. I guess it’s because of the lack of light. I lowered the 250w lamp HPS. Before, I had a 18/6 light schedule. But I thought about one thing: I will put the plant outside later, and there, the light isn’t 18/6 it’s more 16/8. I don’t want my plant to start flowering when I put them outside. So I decided to change the light schedule for 17/7 to get them used to the light environnement of outside Day 12: i put the 600w lamp and lowered to 100cm. I might lower it again soon, i just need to do this on a day when I can regularly check the temperature. Probably this weekend. Day 14: looking at the other growing journal, i started to ask myself if my grow is small for two weeks. I decided to lower de lamp again at 50cm. I have to be careful for the temp. It went from 23 degrees to 27-28. I let the box open and it seems fine. The babies seem happy with this light environment. Day 17: I added 4 other 50L pot in the box. I want to grow them as well. They are 4 auto flowers 🌺. I had to make a lot of arrangements to fit everything. Also the 4 autoflowers and the 4 photoperiod aren’t the same age. It means they don’t have the same light requirement neither the same pot size. So it was a mathematical work to coordinate everything. Day: FIRST TIME OVERWATERING : i saw the GI 2 having leafs down. Like she was tired. When looking online, I saw that it is probably due to overwatering. The next morning she was fine but I learned the lesson. DONT PUT TOO MUCH WATER BRO.

GI 1 had some weird leaves: I removed them because my good friend told me it was a fungus. I topped the Sorbetto and Pink to start a mainline technique. Mainline is a specific way of trimming plants to have them grow more horizontal, with eight main colas instead of one. I didn’t do the mainline technique for the 2 GI because they don’t look very healthy

Sorbetto and pink : topped to start mainline technique Gelato inferno 1: started low stress training Gelato inferno 2: I did nothing Trying different method to see the different results I like experimenting I don’t really care about the final fruits lol
