Welcome to the 2018/19 indoor grow season!!! I am starting this diary for all current seedlings and clones I have started. I'll also be doing separate diaries for some strains individually (but not all).
So, currently I'm about a week in on average with these seedlings and clones. The Seedsman CBD Cream & Cheese and DinaMed CBD+ were started a few days earlier and started stretching using only the 18w T5 my humidity dome came with. So I set up one of my LED's over the humidity dome instead. So far that seems to be helping the newer seeds from stretching too high. I'm also seeing some burn on some girls, I guess the soil must be too hot. I started to try to flush through with straight ph'ed water, but then I started seeing signs of overwatering (rookie mistake, I know). Now I'm just trying to keep a little water on the bottom tray so it generates some humidity in the dome. There's also a heat mat under the tray I have the heat mat on a timer also, 30 min on/30 min off cycling all day. It seemed to get too hot on 24/7.
I'll be transplanting and moving to my 2'x4' tent in about a week. They will live there during veg, then I'll be moving to a 4'x8' tent (not purchased yet) for flower. I'm also planning on adding some COB LED's in the flower tent. Then I'll dedicate my 2x4 tent to mothers, clones and seedlings.
Its going to be a little different this season with both photo period and autoflowering strains going at the same time. But I'm looking forward to it! 👍
Stay tuned...
hey man ,in my opinion its better to start a new grow. Seedlings got a lot of pain now and that will be a big factor in the future if they survive :) Good luck !
@HappyGrower420, I pulled the clones and started some fresh seeds. But I’m also keeping the survivors. Transplanted into fresh soil today. That should help
hey dude. let me know how the dinamed tests. I have just over an ounce of CBD plus but I am prone to psychosis so I must make sure it doesn't test high in CBD.
@TheBudWhisperer, Thanks! I've been budgeting for a 4x8 for a while now and will finally have the cash involved with that by the end of the month. The second 2x4 was not planned. It was a gift from a friend who wasn't going to use it, he didn't have the inner poles to set it up. I have to build that this weekend. Gonna do it out of wood (2x2's) should be relatively easy to make the cuts and screw it together. But its cold as hell outside here now and my table saw is in the garage. I'll get it done though. This weekend at the latest.
One day after watering in lime and Recharge and the girls are already showing signs of improvement. Everything is looking more green and less pale👍 I think I’ll repeat this one more time before feeding any additional nutrients.
