For this cycle I decided to quit with substrates and adapt a DWC pot for high pressure system. The seeds were a gift from Spannabis, and the idea originally was to side compare b45 and akai jelly. The seed were directly germinated in net pot, using the same circulating nutrient solution for the veg plants.
During firts week of veg the plants were placed under a 20W led bar at 20 cm distance. I did not take any picture, but a lot of time lapse so I use a screenshoot from the video, sorry for bad quality. This is the second attempt to direct germination inside the aero system and seems everything is good whit B45
What's happenend in 15 weeks????well, simply I got too many seeds so B45 and akay were kept in the propagation system under LED TUBE, for the moment b45 has very flexible branches and seems dont suffer from continuos cropping/topping/defoliation over 15 weeks of vegg
After 2 weeks I decided with broken heart to kill the AKAI, as you can see in the picture it didnto recover well and the roots look bad. B45 start to smell strong
Finally the roots start to intercept more and more nutrient solution and it is growing very fast. The GROWSMART nutrition line seems to be perfectly balanced at 2.5 EC. Looking to cover at least 50% of the net before switch....is sad that I've lost the Akay otherwise I would have swith to flowering this week.... 😿
everything look nice, almost ready to swith to flowering. The structure of the branches is strong but flexible, plant is pushing the metal net, added a couple of strings💪💪💪
Last week I doubled the irrigation till the runoff go below 2 EC. The aero is amazing, no mess with substrates, no insect, no buildup. Probably next time I should use the bigget netpot, the 5cm is probably too small for a single plant/system. Cant wait to test B45 and see if I can get some seeds. For the moment the fresh flowers smell like jasmine, banana and guava. Probably I would expect a greater yield but since it was the first try with this selection I can consider satisfacted
Probably one of the most unlucky grow cycle ever, but B45 done her job greatly! Next time I will try with more seed probaly with a short veg or maybe 12/12 from seeds. So keep tuned!
