Today i put the seed into a wet coffee filter to germinate.
6-6
After 48 i checked on the seed and the root grew really long! A bit longer to my liking so i should have checked sooner.
I put the seed in a 0.5L pot filled with some Plagron Lightmix, it stays in the dark till she is above the ground.
I made a feed with 0.5 gr Calcium and 0.2 ml Rootstimulator per liter. EC: 0.4 PH: 5.8, and watered the pot a bit.

After 24 hours she is above the ground and i removed the plastic foil covering the pot.

Today i found out that one cola has bud rot (check weekly video) and to be honest i knew it was coming looking back at the high humidity at lights off.
That is one downside of having a small tent like this.
I'm already looking at solutions as the tent has more airflow openings, i already opened one but because the tent is in a closet, it wont get fresh air from outside.

Started trimming today.
14-11
Finished trimming.
I was afraid of finding a lot of budrot, luckily it was only the one cola.
The buds are very frosty, the bottom at the base of the branch looks a bit brownish on some buds, i inspected it with a microscope and didnt find any mold or weird things. There are a lot of amber trichomes tho.
I think that's why it looks brown like that. It smells and smokes good, so i think its fine.
If someone thinks otherwise, let me know!
End results:
Buds: 92 Grams
Small Buds: 18 Grams
Trim: 16.7 Grams
Total weight of the buds: 110 Grams.
I calculated that i used a total of 72.3 watts this grow, that makes it 1.52 grams per watt!
Very happy with the end results, and its by far my personal record hahaha.
