Grow #1.1
-20.06.2024
Today the seeds were planted in the 11L pots directly in the soil.
The lamp hangs 100cm above the pots and runs on 20% with a 20/4 light cycle.
PPfd/DLi values determined with the Photone app are between:
PPfd = 170-200 DLi = 12.3-14.4.
The temperature is 21,5 degrees Celsius and the humidity is 60%.
-21.06.24
I have decided to carefully transplant the seeds into fabric pots before they germinate.
The Ppfd/DLi values as well as the temperature and humidity are unchanged.
-25.06.24
The last few days I have only made sure that the soil is moist.
So far, two of the three seeds have germinated and are forming their first leaves.
The little plants were watered today with 60ml of water.
The Ppfd/DLi values as well as the temperature and humidity are unchanged.
-26.06.2024
Today is the last day of the first week, tomorrow marks the start of the second week and the first week of the vegetative phase.
So far two of the three seeds have been successful. One Mango Smile has not germinated yet but I will keep it in the box and observe.
Overall, things are going quite well so far.
The soil was only sprayed with water as it still felt slightly damp under the surface.
-27.06.2024
The first week of the vegetative phase begins today.
The little plants look quite good.
The light is still 100 cm above the plants and is running at 30% (5% more than last week).
The values measured with the Photone app are ppfd = 240-270 and DLi = 15.5 - 17.5.
The temperature is 22.9 degrees and the humidity is 65%.

The twelfth week if you count the seedling phase has begun.
The plants look good and are getting nice and frosty.
The pistils are mostly amber-colored. The small trichomes are observed once a day with a jeweler's loupe.
So far most of them are still quite transparent for me, occasionally you can see milky and amber colored trichomes. But I think this will be the last week for the ladies.
They are only watered with clear water. The lamp is running at 75% (225 watts) the PPFD value according to the Photone app is around 900.
-07.09.2024
A few of the popcorn buds were removed today.
Trichomes also look good, but they can still do a bit.

-13.09.2024
Today the lights will be switched off until Sunday and on Sunday both plants will be harvested
-15.09.2024
The plants were harvested today and will hang in the box for the next two weeks before they go into jars.
The humidity is 45% and the temperature is 22 degrees Celsius
-22.09.2024
The plants continue to hang upside down in the box and dry.
The air humidity is around 50%-65% but the fans are running 24/7, the fresh air supply and air circulation are very good so I'm not worried.
If anything happens, I will update it here.
Otherwise there will be an update when the plants are dry
