1/9/19 - Seed placed in Rapid Rooter and placed in darkness for 36 hours. Rooter is moistened with RO water, but not soaked. Placed in seedling tray with humidity dome.
1/11/19 - no sign of baby Blue yet, but Luna is keeping the nargles at bay π Seedling tray is sitting on a heating pad on my window sill catching winter sun rays.
1/12/19 - Blue broke ground!
1/13/19 - Bouncing baby Blue between the window sill and grow tent. The lights in the tent are California Lightworks 550 Solar System LED with current settings of R39 W49 B99 as recommended by the manufacturer for seedlings. π±
1/15/19 - Blue is now stationed in the tent. I have my lights 44" away from the tops of the plants ATM in an attempt to be gentle on the seedlings while they come into their own. I added a humidifier to the tent to temporarily help combat the dry winter air.
1/19/19 - After checking on her roots, little Blue showed me it was time to move into her big girl bed. I added 1/4 recommended dose of UC Roots and Coco Cal to the reservoir. Lights have been adjusted to 41" above the canopy with spectrum settings of R49 W59 B99. I'm going to increase the white strength gradually over the next couple of days to end ultimately at 99.
@MaryJaneUSA, Full disclosure that I have no basis for comparison, BUT I have had nothing but wonderful experiences growing in these solo buckets! So much that when I ordered myself more equipment to set up another tent, I most certainly ordered more solo buckets in pure confidence.
how big is that water res? im doing this strain on dwc too i love it but it feels like she doesnt stretch enough in veg, leaves grow all over branches but still a great yielder when taking care
@Reaper, I agree with you π―! I struggled with how short and squatty she stayed, especially considering what a bushy girl she was. Leaves all over the damn place! My buckets are 8 gallons. βοΈ
mine is growing sooo slow (it looks like this at week 4 here) while its actually at day 42... i use GHE nutrients three part series with 600ppm yikes i see you use half that strength maybe i should lower my nutrients, also my ph keeps dropping and ppm rises with about 20 every 4 days after water change, there is no burn or so just droopy lookin leaves a bit and slowwed growth. i hope ill fix it with lowering ppm im so scared i fucked it all up
