First feeding approximately 12 hours after germination. Initially I learned not to fertilize a few days after germination so the plant grows roots faster because they're looking for minerals and stuff. That was with regular plants like tomatoes. On the package of the t.a it says to fertilize right at the start and I think I want to nourish the plants right away. "Tinytenter" a user on this site, said the coco will absorb a lot of calcium and or magnesium. So Cal mag is a must instantly after germination. The roots will probably get going quickly anyway in my airy, hydroponic simulating substrate, so it should be good to put some nutrients in right away.
Btw that's what we're doing here, simulating hydroponics by using a very light and airy substrate, water will drain fast and roots will grow quickly also. There is zero fertilization beforehand, every single milligram is added manually. Because of the good drainage it's important to water the plants at least once per day, maybe more. We will see.
First time analyzing and controlling TDS btw. Unfortunately I have no way of controlling the substrate, any thoughts about that? Water is at 1.2 EC after adding all the fertilizers, I was at 0.8 ms/cm after adding Cal mag but didn't know yet that the other fertilizers will add to that. Gonna leave it like that until the 10 L canister is empty. Might be good to saturate the substrate a few days and then giving a little less. We will see ;)
Shout-out to tinytenter, I came here through him from YouTube and my Growbox and first grow ist heavily inspired by him!
Edit Day 4:
Today I had my first little bit of run off water. This means for me I'm watering enough and the substrate is saturated. I'll be careful not to overfeed now, I don't want the hassle of removing water from the pot saucer. I don't mind a little bit of run off every day but not much.
@Zammi_official, thanks for the seeds my dude 🙌 got them for free from your summer chest thingy. Great shop and you know how you get me to spend moare moneee
@Psilocubensis, thanks man, much appreciated. I took of the domes of the veg lamps, didn't have enough time to do it for the flower lamps jet. I think I won't do it all in one go because it's too much work lol. Also the the ones which are out the farest will keep it, since the plastic spreads the light better and this way I'll get more light in the center where the action is if you know what I mean haha
@brains, danke. Gibt noch viel Optimierungsbedarf bei der neuen Growbox. War erst sehr enttäuscht vom Wachstum, aber der Strain ist einfach Mini habe ich dann verstanden. Bin wieder optimistisch und gespannt auf den Stretch und die Ernte!
I'm open to theories about why the plant in the far left corner is so much smaller. I kinda doubt it's because of ventilation because since a few weeks it has it's "own" vent almost directly pointed at it. I personally think it's a mix of phenotype and stagnant hot air in the first 3 weeks. I'll bend it over soon anyway. Maybe she will take a few days longer to harvest than her sisters but I still think lst bending will be beneficial.
