Greetings!
As my Easy Buds are slowly reaching the finishing lines, with three of them on the verge of flushing and the other two a few weeks left to go, I decided to begin germinating the next Generation.
As before, I germinated the seeds directly in substrate, from my experience this is a few days slower than using the paper towel or a glass of water method, but I prefer it anyways since I do not have to touch the opened seed in any form whatsoever, it can just gently relax directly there, where its gonna grow anyway, and for the most I have been pretty successful with that. 4 of 4 seeds germinated after about 4 days.
I try to make sure, that the seeds have a very humid and warm environment while germination. I didn't top the seeds with a glass from above like others do, but I'm thinking about trying that out soon.
The Plan for this Grow is very different from the most recent Grow:
– First time trying extensive LST on all Plants.
– I will be a little harsher to the Plants, keeping them outside 99% of the time and not restraining them in a tent.
– I'm aiming for plants on the larger side, therefor I drastically increased the amount of Soil used from 11l to about 20l per Plant.
– I'm using a different Soil this Run: Its a mix of BioBizz's All Mix and Light Mix, I build a basis of all mix on the bottom of the plant bag and topped it off with Light Mix Soil for the time, when the plant is in germination and/or growing in the first weeks, so that It will not be flooded by the All Mix Nutrients. That might be stupid, but at the time of making this, I think that's an O.K. Idea.
Let's pray for good weather with these girls.
