All good. Taproots appeared on all seeds after 48hrs and most seeds were above ground two days after sowing (day 4 from seed). All but 1 seed emerged. Assuming I damaged taproot on one when sowing.
I am using Gaia Green soil amendments, HP pro mix, Happy Frog, and Microbial Mass to build a basic living soil. I created a starter culture with the above amendments and allowed this to incubate for over a month. The started culture was mixed in with more Gaia Green amended HP Pro Mix and Happy Frog to create the growing medium. Each 5 gallon bucket was filled 3/4 with this amended soil. The last 1/4 was topped with HP Pro Mix with no amendments, which will give the seedlings a low nutrient environment to start off in and to reach the amended soils after a short period of growth.
The lower 3/4 was watered with 4l of Microbial Mass and NPK cane molasses to initiate the living soil activity and to settle the soil before the germinated seeds were added.
I love to get to test some new Releases. I do for a lot of places. But, fb never ask me. :-( Ah, well. I got a few new ones to run with for the summer..
Sounds like you setting them up well. Good luck hope you get a few winners
@gottagrowsometime, I was very lucky and fortunate that I caught FastBuds when they were looking for growers. Keep an eye out for any other call ups for this program.
