I soak the seeds in water for 8 hours then put in paper towel for about 18 hours 100% germination added them to small starter tray 12 hours later they broke soil at around 40 hours the seedling was up and running very viable seeds
These plants are moving very fast despite the fact that I got a lot of bad reviews from the seed Fair and so far these are some of the best beans I've had as far as germinating I took a chance on the seed Fair hopefully everything goes right so far they're looking great
Everything's going great week two looking good stacking good but I saw a few dots on some leaves and realize it was spider mites I destroyed them by soaking the plant with a spray of 70% alcohol no water dilution I'm not going to play with these dudes I gave them another blast 5 to 6 days later when the eggs hatch because even though I killed them the eggs will hatch later the alcohol don't kill them until they hatch come
Week 3 they are moving slower than I'm used to but I'm using organic doctor Earth flower girl and I was a little late adding the flower girl but they are almost done eating the doctor Earth and I'm going to switch to General Hydroponics Flora series just a three-part to speed this process up
The girls are coming along at this point I'm using general hydroponic 3 part and they are doing okay a little small for my liking but there's a lot of tops so I'm happy, they are being watered every 3 days and are being fed every watering at a goal of 700 PPM with 15% runoff i will increase to no more than 1, 000 as the weeks progress.
Week 5 is going well par levels are where I like them and evenly distributed across both plants their parts per million levels are at 1200 I feed every water with General hydroponic 3 part and by check and run off every water I know exactly how much they're drinking so I will drop them to a thousand week 6 they are eating 400 PPM every 3 days so I will add only 200 PPM of the nutrients and that will take it to a thousand and after week 6 we'll taper down
