D8-14 - The plant continues to grow slowly in height and more true leaves are developing with the second pair having 3 fingers. It is showing no signs of stress.
Still no water added yet as the soil moisture sensor is reading within the moist to moderately moist range (50-120 mbar). I have been spraying the soil surface with dechlorinated water to stop it becoming too dry and hydrophobic before its first watering, using a plastic cup to prevent the seedling getting wet.
By day 14, the soil has reached above 100 mbar which on the ecothrive page is the suggested range for early veg (100-120 mbar).
Soil pH is a little low at 5.9 so going ahead, I will monitor and maybe adjust for it’s first water in the next couple of days.
