Welcome All!!
Germinated 3 White Widow and 2 Bubba Kush Feminized Photoperiod seeds both from Seedsman.
Labeled each container with strains and dates
Put seeds on piece of paper towel cut to size of the small Tupperware container used.
Covered with another piece of paper towel
Gently dripped with filtered water until damp but no water running out if tipped on it's side
Covered with lid and sealed
Wrapped each container in a towel so no light could get to them and put inside the grow tent which was sitting around 70F-73F and around 70% humidity
They germinated really fast, just under 24 hours and already showing tap roots and 100% germination rate from all 5 seeds!
After they popped, prepped red solo cups with Build A Soil 3.0 Mix to plant them into
Put about half a gallon to 3/4 of a gallon of water into the sprayer, added a couple small drops of Therm X70 Yucca Extract as a wetting agent, a pinch of Horticultural Aloe Vera, and a pinch of Rootwise Mycrobe complete to the water, shook up, then wetted the soil in each cup until damp, made a small hole, added a tiny bit more Rootwise Mycrobe Complete, and placed each seed. Covered lightly and gave a few more drops of water from the sprayer. Set them under a dim 100W LED until they sprout.
Once they sprout and grow a few new leaves, they will be transplanted into their own 30 gallon Grassroots living soil fabric pots filled with Build A Soil 3.0, craft blend, Kashi blend, BuildAFlower Top Dress, cover crop, and barley straw mulch.
Thank you for taking the time to check out this grow!! Please feel free to leave any comments or questions.
@BudBoutique, Same! Wasn't able to train them as much as I'd like due to being unexpectedly out of town quite a bit during this run so curious how theyll turn out as they are almost too tall at this point lol.
You clearly know what you're doing, but I've never seen black or grey mycelium. You sure that mass of "good mycelium" isn't dead, a fruiting body, or a mold? Myc doesn't really lift above the substrate until its trying to fruit, and we wouldn't call the fruiting body myc.
Any chance at ID?
Also, damn, we really are in sync. I grew NLA last, WW now. Happily Minnesota organic grow!
@JazzBerries, I haven't seen it like that either and it didn't even occur that it could have been something besides mycelium and possibly be a mold but you could be right. I was out of town for a week right after this last update and that little ball in the photo has disappeared and there is no sign of it anymore. Plants are thriving still and no signs of mold or anything bad spreading so that is relieving. It definitely was more in the mulch layer versus being in the soil when it was visible though. Going to keep monitoring but it has disappeared at least for now. If it returns or I start seeing the plant getting "sick" I will update more.
Wow that is quite the coincidence lol! Thanks for the comment, and pointing out the mycelium/mold in the photo. Also happy growing to you as well! Will definitely follow along and wish you nothing but positive results to a fellow MN grower!
@Herbie101, Thanks man!! I really enjoy the cover crop too. Not only does it provide a nice visual aesthetic, it helps out in a number of other areas as well. Thanks again for following along!
@CannabisFarmerGuyDude, I love the idea and philosophy begind the living soil thing! I just need to learn my basics first, but its perfect to follow people along who work with it to learn. 😊 I hope all will go well! Best of luck buddy!🌱🍀
@Herbie101, Thanks man!! Appreciate the love and you following along! First time going full "Living Soil" and using Build A Soil products so really excited to see how things turn out and share with you all.
