My flower tent is about to be empty again so it's time to get another run going. This one is a special request from my wife, she a big cookies fan and Do-Si-Dos is a favorite of ours. Found a good deal on some autos at MSNL awhile back and have decided to give them a try. Also gonna dip my toe back into DWC after growing in coco for awhile. I've done DWC in the past but it's been awhile.
On 7/15 I got everything prepped and soaked my seeds overnight. I don't wait for them to crack open, I just soften them up a little. They go into my Rapid Rooter pucks the next day and go into my DIY humidity dome. I only start seedlings in a dome to keep the pucks from drying so fast once they sprout I take them out for the fresh air.
By 7/21 all 3 have sprouted and I set them up in their net pots. The taproot are sticking out the bottom of the pucks but they're still pretty short. I keep them in the reservoir but I'm not running any solution yet. I don't see any sense in mixing up 8-10 gallons of weak solution that will hardly be used anyway. I'm just misting the bottom of the net pots and the inside of the reservoir a few times a day until I get some roots hanging a little. By then I can probably step up to a mild veg ratio. They're currently under my 100w LED shoplight that I use for veg but once I harvest my tent they'll move under the PT-5000.
