So this is my first grow, and I decided to take the safe path, going with automatics and not trying to maximize anything. Even more as the supplier has problems getting all the ordered equipment to my place, so I still lack in-room vents and just received a thermometer.
I started with a mini greenhouse (that’s currently shared) and 40% light but probably could have given more. But even so, I was pleasantly surprised to see all five seeds germinate. One pineapple had some leaf issues, possibly from leaving the seed shell, with somewhat broken baby leaves and white, pointy tips on the first real pair. Which disappeared after two days of growth.
After the first leaves appeared, I cranked up the lights by 20% daily. Temperature is around 26°C during light phase, with humidity around 50%.
I am using RO water, therefore add some CalMag to it. As I had great success with my other indoor plants, I imprint the water for some hours with 528 Hz (DNA integrity), using a Cold Laser and a PEMF coil. Very curious to see if this will have impact on *these* plants too.
Oh, btw: last row are the Sherbets, to the front the 3 Pineapples.
