Rootball Reveal - BIGOLEBUDS Diary

Week 2: Day 1:After 15-20 days in the cubes we potted the clones up to solo cups and cleared out any clones that weren't doing well. We planned to up pot these to 2 gallons, but in the interest of maximizing root health (and seeing the rootball) we went with clear solo cups. This tent is looking like we are running a real grow operation 😂😅 I wish we knew the pheno's for each of these before we labelled them, but the same way we ID the pheno's in our flower tent, we will eventually do for these clones and in the future we will give them numbers until we ID them. I'd also like to do more testing of different fertilizer and watering programs this grow, but I know that will come with time. We are doing a test of some plants with Mycorrhizae and some without, so I'm excited to see how that goes. We are actually also testing two different types of mycorrhizae as well Dynomyco and Xtreme Mykos with everything else as controls. Once we have any updates on that comparison this blog will be the first to know. Day 3: WOW! The roots on these things are growing like crazy! The Watermelon Skittles strain is a quick root producer. It had roots popping out of the Root Riot cubes when we planted them, and 8 hours later had reached the edges of the cup! At this point we can see the roots all around the cups on all of the plants. We are thinking we will need to up pot them before our big trip to Rio at the end of the month.. but will be keeping a close eye on them! We think a total veg time of 2 months is what we are shooting for.
