20/12/23 - Day 14
MilkyWay's are off to a great start!
14 days from seed today, and some true leaves have started to come out!
Plant 1 still looking as it did, and i feel is lagging behind by a few days now compared to 2 and 3.
Im also trialling a drip feed system as I'll be leaving the seedlings unattended for 11-12 days! 3.5L capacity and a Im testing out the drip rate of 5ml/h for a few days to see if it'll hold when im not around!
Plant 2 is looking to be the main plant this run, with the way she's been developing! Plant 3 is the middle plant.
I wont judge so early on because i've seen some stuff in my runs. let's see how this goes!!
23/12/23 - Day 17
I decided to move runty Plant 1 from the fabric pot into the 10L plastic pot which housed my previous runt.
Plant 2 and 3 are doing great.
2nd and 3rd set of leaves coming on nicely! All 3 plants have the IV bag up and running, on a 5ml/h drip.
Temperatures for this grow currently have been 25-28C and RH is playing around 55-70%
At this point, the roots should have already broken through the peat pots and getting into the Plagron mix.
so far, so good!
26/12/23 - Day 20
Plants are all looking good today! Nice and green, getting tall, apart from 1. She looks like she's gonna die, or at least close to dying.
Plant 2 and 3 have grown taller in the last few days. They're both looking strong and green! I've upped the drip flow to 10ml/h.
@Lemonhazelover, thanks bud! im looking forward to this run! im on a time schedule so i decided on these beans, hoping they mature quicker than my last batch of autos! 💪🏽
I see your using drips and bags. I would like to use that in my grow as well. Any tips on amounts during the different stages and do you give them a dry out cycle? I know you left them for 12 days at 10ml/h and came to find them what looks like to me a bit over watered. But alive which is so cool.
@Kronen, I left the drip at 10ml/hr specifically because of how young the plants were when I did it. If they were week 5/6, I would have probably gone for 25-30ml/hr. It's all size dependent really!
next time though, I would use 2 bags simultaneously, on either side of the main stem. I found that 1 bag left the whole medium too dry after 12 days, but it did serve its purpose and kept all 3 of the plants alive!
I wouldn't recommend using this with nutrient water though, I tried that with one plant and dripper was full of crystallised minerals.
Appears they all recovered from those earlier issues. I 💬 recovery plants produce the best results when they finally make it to the end. They.buikd up an immune system and cannabinoids are part of that
