==================================== WEEK ZERO ==================================== THURSDAY 10/18: My beans will arrive on 10/19, and I'm ready for them! I've come to believe that with so few total days that an autoflower will live, it's an absurd waste of time to sprout them in paper towels and then transfer them to media. From my best guesstimation, I'm wasting 2-3 days time with each seedling while they acclimate to new media..plus I've had some catastrophic penetrations of the paper towel by the tap root that led to failures to emerge from the soil. I'm gonna try a little experiment with rapid rooter cubes and grodan rockwool cubes this time around. I'm planting 2 x Gorilla Glue Autos, one in each starter media and germinating in an enclosed tray. Once I start to see roots, I'll open up the vents on the chamber for a day, then plant them in 3 gallon fabric pots. FRIDAY 10/19: 1 pair of Gorilla Glue Auto seeds are soaking! SATURDAY 10/20: Both seeds sank. SUNDAY 10/21: Both seeds sprouted and were planted. πŸ‘ I have the 75w blue/white LED panel about 18" above them, and the 730nm far red light kicking on for an hour, every 6 hours. MONDAY: Nuttin yet.. TUESDAY: Only one seedling emerged thus far.. WEDNESDAY: Still just one GG seedling emergence, but it is looking good.πŸ‘ I floated another GG bean in case this one doesn't show it's pretty face.. ============================================= WEEK ONE ============================================= THURSDAY 10/25: The lone GG seedling had an excellent taproot, so I planted it. The other still hasn't emerged (very shy), and the floater sank but hasn't sprouted yet. FRIDAY: I didn't soak them well enough yesterday and wasn't able to check them til late today...GiGi was almost dead, but I managed to revive her. The sunken bean half-ass sprouted..I stuck it in rockwool. The first one, in the rapid rooter, is pretty much the same..half-assed sprout. I'm giving up on it... I floated my last 2 GG seeds in purified water...fingers crossed..πŸ™ SATURDAY: Neither of the two in cubes has emerged, and neither of the two beans I floated yesterday have sprouted... The one that is planted is doing well, but 1 out of 5 is pathetic...I'll give the others a little more time, but I'm afraid that they're all duds.😩 SUNDAY: Whoopie! Another Gorilla Glue seedling emerged! What's cool is that it was one of the first 2 seeds I dropped (a whole week ago).. it just couldn't find it's way to the light I guess.. So...now I am optimistic that at least one of the other 3 in rockwool cubes might also emerge...eventually.😴 MONDAY: Still just the one new seedling so far...I'm leaving it in the incubator for another day before I plant the cube in soil...It'd sure be nice to have the other 3 emerge...πŸ™ TUESDAY: The survivor looks healthy. 2nd set of leaves...starting nutes tomorrow. I planted the 1 GG seedling that popped a couple days ago. Nobody else has made an appearance yet.. WEDNESDAY: I fed the older one about 32oz of nutes today..her first taste. Her name shall be "Gertrude." The younger one is looking good, but has quite a way to go to catch her big sister. Her name is "Gretyl." Neither of the other 3 sprouts have emerged.

@TheBudWhisperer, I plan to order some more GG beans for my Winter grow, but already committed to some other Fastbuds strains in the Fall...10 x Zkittlez, 3 x Six Shooter, 3 x Stardawg, 3 x Tangie-matic, plus I've got 5 x White Widows from Spliff Seeds that I'm really looking forward to trying.

You have a nice Harvest but, $9.00 for seeds & $167.50 for nutes, plus the electric bill? I suppose it better than Street Prices but, Wow! I guess somebody needs to explain the benefits of all those nutrients vs. NPK & Water. Anyways, I hope you are enjoying your harvest!

@R_Owl_Mirror, No sweat man.. As a kid, back in the 70's, I grew outdoors with nothing but miracle grow and miracle bloom. In the late 80's and early 90's I had a closet garden and grew hydro in cheap plastic basins with 2 or 3 liter cola bottles with the tops cut off and lava rock stolen from Taco Bell...very minimalistic. Back in the days before hydro shops and the internet, you had to be a commercial grower to get access to hydro nutes, or you spent many hours a week creating your own. Nowadays, it's all so easy. For example, the Big Bloom fertilizer I use is derived in almost exactly the same formulation that I used to concoct myself. For $16 per grow, or less, I have what took me 2+ hours per week to make myself...and I had a shed full of big bags of worm castings, bat guano, etc..and it's hard to explain away all that stuff unless you have a beautiful lawn or garden as a cover...and with a big indoor garden, a job, and a family, who has the time for that?!??πŸ˜€

@Silverback_Guerilla, I didn't intend to be insulting in any way. I guess I was just surprised at the complete list of various products you gave. I am a minimalist in regards to what a plant needs to survive & thrive. I've been growing my own for 40+ years and am continually amazed at how people buy/use so many products in our consumer-driven world. Like the difference between people using expensive rooting hormones when cloning, when in fact the best results can be achieved by snipping the new growth branches from a weeping willow, either soaking the branches in your water can or drying them, crushing them and mixing the fibers in your water. As an example of minimalism. I am sorry if my comment came across as harsh in any way. Peace!

@R_Owl_Mirror, Don't be daft......that "cost" they show for seeds and nutes isn't what people actually paid, dude...it's just what a full container of each of the listed nutrients would cost (somewhere I guess)...I buy on Amazon for the most part and pay far less than retail, and a single grow doesn't use all of the nutes in the containers...and yes, I am enjoying the fruits of my labor. And when you think about it, even if it did cost me a couple hundred bucks for a single grow (which it didn't), 16+ ounces of top-shelf bud for a couple hundred bucks is an uber-bargain.

@Silverback_Guerilla How much longer are you going to let them go before harvest? They look solid my friend nice work so far. 😎

Silverback_Guerilla
@HighTV, Thanks! Gertrude, the paler one with bamboo stakes, probably got her last feeding today. She should have been planted in a 5 gallon pot. Pretty sure she's been rootbound for a couple weeks now. I'll flush her twice over a 10-day period starting in a few days. I think Gretyl, the bluish-green plant, won't quit making calyx and pistils for another couple weeks or more. She's got enough foliage left to have the energy she'll need.πŸ‘
