4th of January, 1:55 A.M. We have lift-off! On the right is Royal Creamatic and on the left is Sherbert Queen. Both are Automatics and both are from Royal Queen Seeds. This is my second grow ever and I am feeling confident and hopeful that I can replicate and build upon the success of my first.
They germinated and sprouted without issue. This time I germinated directly in the root riot cubes instead of starting with the paper towel and then moving to the cube. Made things much easier, and it was quite successful. I am using the same AC infinity propagation chamber as my first grow. Managing the humidity and cube dampness with a spray bottle and a heating pad to regulate the temperature. The second I saw the sprouts coming out of the cubes I flipped the lights on and ran 24 hours for the whole week. I upped the intensity from 10% to 100% over the week as the sprouts strengthened. I generally kept the temp and humidity between 70-80 degrees, but because of my setup, it's hard to keep it 100% stable. (The heating pad likes to push it past 80 even on low with a buffer between the box and pad once the lights are on and closer to 100% intensity.)
