I decided to directly sow the seed into the soil so the plant would have less stress so It would have a longer time to vegetate even though there was a possibility that the seeds would germinate and die because of natural soil bacteria and fungii.
I started the fan at the lowest setting the second day of veg and I watered every day with plain water. I fertilized only once with just 1 ml/L of Alga Grow. Starting with next week I will pump up the nutrients a lot.
I'm using the IR option with my light.
This week I let the soil dry a lot before watering. This way the roots are going to grow and search for food and water and will eventually make the plant absorb nutrients faster later during the veg period.
I watered only twice this week using a solution of tap water, 3 ml/L of Alga Grow and about 10 g/L of unrefined corn syrup. This last ingredient is very important because it feeds the microbiology in the soil making Bio fertilizers more available to the plant especially in overused soils. I also sprayed a solution containing only Alga Grow at the same concentration on the leaves.
This week I also started raising the temperature of the environment: the objective is to reach slowly 25° C.
This week started by changing the temperature to the final vegetative temperature which is 25°C. 😳
I watered twice with 1 L tap water (22°C) and 4 ml/L of Alga Grow and I changed the pH of the solution using vinegar: the final EC was 1.6 mS/cm and the final pH was 6,4.
I found a little fly in the tent. Will keep an eye for others.
This week the first pistils started showing off the nodes!
Overall a very good week with a lot of vegetative growth. It's height is 21 cm with quite spaced off internodal spacing: about 5,25 cm.

👽 LIGHT SETUP:
I lowered the intensity of the light to a little less than 50%, but I didn't change the hanging height. Now the plant is about 30 cm from the light. I'm still using IR LEDs.
This week I watered 2 times with 1 L tap water (22°C) and 4 ml/L of Alga Grow and 2 times using only tap water.
The photos were taken at day 28 and the plant was showing the phase before the start of flowering.
This week also started to stretch and reached 47 cm.

👽 LIGHT SETUP:
Same as last week.
