Winter/Spring 2024

12/27: soaked pellets in warm water and put them under sf2000 in my 3x3x7 tent I use for drying and starting seeds to warm up before planting the seeds- about 2hrs. Light @ 50% dimmer and 30” from top of tray. Tray lid is on. Humidifier in tent set to 60%RH to keep ambient humidity elevated and slow any drying of pellets during germination. Light on 24-0 cycle. Ambient temperature in tent is 74F. Ambient temperature and humidity in tray is 72F and 90%RH. 1/1: All ten seeds have successfully germinated. Sterilized roots organic potting soil with boiling water on 12/31 (6 pots) and 1/1 (4 pots) before planting to make sure any pests are dead. 1/3: Planted all 10 seeds in 3gal fabric pots with sterilized roots organic potting soil. Placed pellet near center of pot and cut sides of netting that encases each peat plug. Labeled the fabric pots so I don’t get the strains mixed up during routine maintenance. Moved everything into my larger 8x4x7 tent that has one 4000W spider farmer led, one 2000W spider farmer led, and one spider farmer 1000W led, one 4” active intake with 200CFM inline fan mounted on a carbon filter and a 6” active exhaust with a 500CFM inline fan and carbon filter. i am using only the 4000W with dimmer at 60% and 2000W with dinner at 80% for now and both lights are hung around 28”. Humidity in tent is set at 70% RH and temperature is hovering at 74F. Exhaust cycle is set 3min every 3hrs. Tomorrow I will add a citric acid+baking soda reactive CO2 to hopefully get things moving along and encourage rapid growth during veg.
