Forgotten Haze Cakes - Terpzy X Kalyseeds

My First Hydro Adventure. Howdy folks, welcome to my inaugural hydroponic growing endeavor. Normally, I'm a coco grower, swaying to the beat of pH-perfect nutrients. However, my last foray into organic soil was quite the spectacle, let me tell ya. Now, I'm getting cozy with Forgotten Haze Cakes & Banana Clouds (feminized) by TerpyZ X Kalyseeds. I've got my hands full with an OxyPot XL, airstones, clay pebbles, and Advanced Nutrients courtesy of Holland's 3-liter starter kit. Just to keep things interesting, I’m using tap water with a pH of 5.7. Week 1: Let the Germination Games Begin! 10/02/2024 The pH checked in at 4.87 after a 24-hour rockwool soak in distilled water. After draining the cubes, I introduced a modest dose of growth nutrients. Lo and behold, the rockwool plugs holding the hopes and dreams of Forgotten Haze Cakes are leading the propagation charge! After another round of draining, I'm about to treat these plugs to a 20-minute soak in an equally mild growth nutrient solution. Now, here's a thought to tickle your funny bone: why will Forgotten Haze Cakes love hydroponics? Because she heard they were having a "pot-luck"! And boy, does she love a good pot-luck! Dude, 11/02/2024 All my seeds have germinated, but there are still one or two shells hanging on. They should have fallen off by tonight, bro! 11/02/2024 It's bedtime check-in, dude. All the seeds have germinated perfectly, no shells stuck or loose skins. Everything's all good. But damn, NO! dealing with bacteria and viruses this time! This time it's gonna' like the 'Breaking Bad' - Pro Clean Edition, Just expressing frustration over encountering bacteria and viruses with my last grow or what' not! Hey peeps, 'bedtime check-in': everything's looking pretty solid, but I'm kinda stressing about when the roots start popping, you know. I really hope I nailed the seedling feed solution when I soaked those rock cubes earlier. Gotta make sure everything's on point for those roots to come in strong and healthy. Alright, fam, this is my first hydro grow, and I'm breaking it down as I go, like I'm the boss of the game, haha. But wait; I don't want this grow to go breaking bad 😕 though. Anyway, when those roots start popping, they're gonna be reaching out for some serious nourishment, and if I didn't ace that feed solution, it could mess up the whole growth process. I need to be on my A-game because those early stages are crucial for laying the groundwork for the entire plant's growth. So, I have to keep a close eye on how the seedlings respond to the feed and tweak things as necessary. It's all about giving those roots the best possible start so they can take in what they need to thrive. I've already put in the work, so now it's about staying sharp and making sure I've set the stage for success. 2hours after lights on Forgotten Haze Cake needed a little help! Banana 🍌 Clouds looking like the biggest, no pun intended! - We do not want any Banana'S! 13/02/2024 Yo, dudes, everything's cool, no issues to report! But I got some questions about feeding in my hydroponic setup for growing cannabis and germinating in rockwool cubes that I might run into in the next few weeks. Gotta ask myself: Do I need to add more of the same solution for the feeds, ‘cause she's gonna be droppin' loads. Apparently! "Let's Smash it! - 'Crash Bandicoot' is taking the seedlings to school!" Purple Punch is now sharing its bed with Seedsmans CBD 2:1! 14/02/2024 All is swell in Crazy School! What you' chalk it up to? Purple Punch is in the same rockwool as peyote Wi-Fi CBD 2:1 but she's looking dark and Purple already. Mid-day: Gave the plugs 3ml of the seedling solution around their necks. 5ml around the cubes. Don't want them drying out, trying to keep the medium the same. Made a new seedling solution using Sensi Bloom. I never bought the Ph up & down. Yo, so like, check it, midday I was all up in my garden, right? And I was straight up asking about my lil' seedlings, and this dude was like, "Yo bro, your PH is lookin' whack." And I was like, "Dang, I forgot to grab some of that PH Up & Down and extra big rockwool cubes, man." So I did this sick move and put those seedlings into fresh plugs and straight up soaked that rockwool in some Sensi Bloom PH perfect solution, you feel me? 3hrs After new solution everything seems ok to my eye!
