a new grow is on the cards. it will be a race between two fast-flowering varieties. On one side we have fast buds with gorilla cookies and on the other side zamnesia with green crack F1. i'm trying to create the same conditions for both as much as possible. it will be an outdoor grow in an autopot flexipot system. both will get the same fertilisation and have the same substrate to grow in.
the substrate is a mix of expanded clay from Plagron and coconut fibres from Canna. The fertiliser comes from Hesi.
germination went very well. i first put the seed in water for 24 hours and then placed it in a wet paper towel for another 24 hours. the seed germinated after a total of 48 hours. then i planted it in the coco substrate and after another 48 hours the seedling broke through the soil and got its first rays of sunshine.
it will be my last outdoor grow for this year and i'm looking forward to seeing how the plants grow in late summer.😋
the race continues. at the moment both are still on a par. a good 5 cm in growth. there is currently a lot of sunshine and really good temperatures. apart from that, not much has happened yet.
i have now moved it to its last pot. it was a bit stressful for it and i hope it recovers well. the root formation looked really good. it is now in an autopot system and is being fed with HESI fertiliser.
unfortunately, my backyard squirrel decided to hide his nuts in exactly these two pots. i had to move the plants back into place and stabilised them with a stick. due to this setback, not much has happened in terms of growth. in addition, of course, there is the beginning of autumn. we are currently at about 12 hours of daylight. i am curious to see if they will show what they are made of or if it is a shot in the dark.
unfortunately, there is not much to report. the weather has turned to autumn much too soon, which is not the best of conditions. after the eichhörnchen attack, she has recovered well. luckily, she was spared a second attack. i am curious to see if she will make it to the flowering season.
not much has happened this week. there is still some sun per day. however, the temperatures drop to 4-8 degrees at night. these are not exactly the best conditions. maybe this late outdoor experiment was not a good idea after all. however, they have not died yet.
