Grow Diary: Exciting New Beginnings I'm thrilled to start this grow diary! The journey has already begun on a high note, with the seeds germinating in just 3 days. Royal Queen Seeds has consistently delivered excellent results, and this time is no exception. This grow is special for me as I'll be experimenting with a new nutrient brand - Plagron. After researching various options, I chose Plagron due to its availability in my area, stellar reviews, and the extensive range of nutrients they offer. For the first few weeks, I won’t be using any nutrients, allowing the seedlings to establish themselves naturally. However, I’m eagerly looking forward to seeing how Plagron enhances the growth in the later stages. The Germination Process Germination is a critical first step in the growth of any plant, and achieving optimal conditions can make all the difference. Here’s a detailed look at the process I followed: Choosing Quality Seeds: Royal Queen Seeds have never let me down. Their seeds are renowned for their high germination rates and robust growth. Preparation: I used the classic wet paper towel method for germination. This method is highly effective and straightforward. I moistened a few sheets of paper towel with distilled water, ensuring they were damp but not soaking wet. Setting Up: I placed the seeds evenly spaced on the damp paper towels and then covered them with another layer of moist paper towel. The key here is to maintain a consistently moist environment. Creating the Perfect Environment: The paper towels with the seeds were placed inside a plastic container with a lid to retain moisture. I then kept the container in a warm, dark place, maintaining a temperature between 20-25°C (68-77°F), which is ideal for most cannabis seeds. Monitoring: I checked the seeds daily to ensure the paper towels remained moist. After just 3 days, I was delighted to see tiny roots emerging from the seeds – a sign of successful germination! Looking Ahead With the seeds now germinated, the next step is to transplant them into their growing medium. I’m using 15-liter pots for this grow, providing ample space for the roots to develop. The initial stages will focus on ensuring the seedlings have the best start possible, with adequate light, water, and airflow. I must apologize for not having photos for the first two weeks. Initially, I didn’t intend to publish this diary, so I didn’t take any pictures. Please bear with my lengthy explanations; I use them to keep a detailed log of my actions and reasons. Your comments and advice are always welcome and appreciated. Stay tuned for more updates as I document each stage of this exciting journey. I can’t wait to share the progress and learnings with you all. Happy growing!
