Greetings fellow growmies!
This is my first proper venture into photos as I've always done auto's in the past.
Today is Day 7
I belong to a helpful Discord group (https://discord.gg/dutchfarmer) that is hosting a Grow Off comp. We are all running two of the same strain, Barney's Farm - Pineapple Express. This diary is the journey of one of those lil beans.
First impression: Good start, germinated in 3 days. Nice green leaves and looks healthy.
Seedling is in a solo pot to start with. I've done this for a couple of reasons, as I'm normally old skool and plant bean straight into the final substrate.
Firstly, I still have 2 auto plants in the tent that are in the late stages of flower where humidity is 40%. Until they are done and removed from the tent I'm using a food bag sprayed with water over the seedling for humidity. This is providing a greenhouse effect with humidity around 85%. Second reason is space within the tent. As well as the 2 flowering plants in 6l and 7l pots, I popped an RQS Special Queen #1 alongside the two Pineapple Express . Once the to autos are done in a week or two, I will be transplanting the seedlings into their final 10l pots.
Throughout the day I'm checking if the food bag needs respraying and whether the solo pot substrate is drying out. When almost dry I've now introduced Canna Start, Canna Rhizotonic and Calmag to the 5.8 PH'd water.
Full details of the strain can be found here: https://www.barneysfarm.com/pineapple-express-609
Wish me luck on my photo journey continues!
As ever, thanks for stopping by and showing an interest. It really is appreciated. 🙏

I normally do. As explained in previous weeks, I had 2 flowering auto's in the tent when starting 3 seedlings. I'm in an 80x80 tent so 3 seeds directly into 10l pots would have made it cramped in there. Plus using food bags as cloches is easier over solo pots.
