Germination
a year ago
Time to start off with a Royal Jack Auto. Day time temperatures are still in the high twenties. Germination took 3 days directly in soil about 0.5 to 1cm deep. The soil is a mix of coco coir, vermiculite, perlite, biochar bokashi, 20% worm castings and 4-4-4 organic fertilizer. Day 6: Just like with my DC Cure grow, I have micro dosed it with some Jadam JLF. It should help the vegetation state and promote bigger leaf grow.

Day 8: first rainy and cold day (24C) relatively. I decided to put it a day protected under my grow light until the sun comes out again. Day 9: back in the sun again. Day 10: Jack can now spend the nights in my Homebox Q60 under a 240W LED light. Day 11: Already seeing more growth now that it has a 4/20 light schedule Day 12: The 20hrs light schedule really seems to double the growth every day.

Day 21: I see that the tips of the new growth are a bit brighter and I will not add extra nitrogen for a while from my JADAM JLF. I should really stick to the recommended 1:100 dilution rate. Day 27: When I started with LST, I didn't know how well it would work, but it indeed works and is steadily giving me more bud sites.

Very nice smoke. Tastes like earth and cream with notes of herbs. The effects for me are: happy, uplifting, dreamy and it has a slight relaxing body effect.

I slow dried her for two weeks in a dark place at +- 20C. She smells citrussy and like fresh herbs. I will now cure her for at least a month.
