Barney's Farm - Biscotti Mintz

The clones have been sad most of the week. It's only the last 2 days that they've come out of their transplant funk. I originally tried to keep the temps quite low, around 72F with a 70% humidity. They were sad and droopy. I thought about it, and decided to raise the temps to what most closely resembled the environment they were in when in the clone dome. So i raised to 78F and kept the humidity at 70%. 2 days later they responded, and are now perky and growing. Just how much they have grown I will measure tomorrow. As well as all the other measurements and additional pictures. Tomorrow will be a feed as well. The clones have grown 2 inches this week. Not lighting the world on fire by any means, but they were suffering transplant shock for most of the week so considering that 2 inches of growth is decent. I'm noticing a little tip burn on them. As the roots reach down deeper into the soil they are going to grow into the re-used buffered coco. That coco was soaked for about 72 hours in a 2x strength General Hydroponics Calimagic+ solution at a pH of 6.0ish So the nitrogen content down there in that coco might be a bit hot. So given that they are green and reaching for the light, I'm going to forgo feeding them today, and instead perhaps just give them some 6.2 pH water with the Hygrozyme and Hygroben. Maybe the next application of water i will give them a little food, we'll see. I'm undecided on topping them. If I'm going to do that it's gonna be within the next 3 days. I want these plants flipped to flower at the end of March for an end of May finish. And i want a decent yield this time. Because last run i came to realize that my garden was under lit and the buds didn't develop that well. Plus i had a pH pen lead me astray which fucked up the garden really bad at a crucial point in flower. Let's hope that doesn't happen again! MARCH 12, 2024 I was going to feed the plants, but since their roots are now growing down into the buffered with Calimagic coco, they are actually showing a little tip burn on the newest growth tips as well as all the other leaves. I buffered with 2x strength calmag which i am now thinking wasn't necessary to double the strength. The pots are still heavy with the calmag solution that was left over from the soak, so I'm just going to let it ride for now. Onward we go.👍
