Beleaf Sampler Tent: Chimera #3, Tricho Jordan, Hawaiian Lion (fem seeds)

We start this week with six young, somewhat disfigured, partially malformed, nuggets of pure potential. Three Hawaiian Lions emerge triumphant in their early vigor. Two Chimera remain, one worse off than the other, but neither ready for a beauty contest. And then there's the helmet head. The last of the Tricho's! My man, Mr. Jordan. His bros are dead, and this ones refusing to shed the helmet from its head. I do not want to start over with a fresh batch, and I don't want to wait for the next run, so I guess I'm performing baby surgery. I'm gonna be baby plant surgeon! I'll spare you the drama and just let you know now that it worked. It frickin' worked! That little shell hung on tight, but I was delicate yet firm, and my resolve was beyond reproach. We got this one. That's all I can say. We entered uncharted territory with both eyes facing forward, and when I freed it of its shell shackle, that little bugger flipped out its baby leaves and starting making its own food with the light above just as nature (and this guy) intended. Just, wow. I'm floored by my strength. I stewarded that little bugger to life, and I know one day soon I'll fondly think back on this memory while torching the living F out of that plant. May it burn bright, oh shining star. I'm at a quarter strength nutrients. ~250ppm. I largely use the coco for cannabis website's feed chart with some minor deviations. I'm generally a touch higher in concentration, as I use municipal tap water that's good by tap standards. Compared to how the plants started this week, I'm feeling really good that all six are going to make it. I initially fed every day, and then skipped a day at the end of the week to let the coco lose a touch of moisture. I'm also starting to lower humidity. We've been riding at equatorial plant nursery levels, but now I'm starting to believe we're developing some noteworthy roots. It's time to start normalizing the environment.
