3 year seed

Week 1 Summary - Grower Diaries: Auto Blue Dream in Aeroponic PC System Initial Setup: Seed: Auto Blue Dream (approximately 2.5 to 3 years old). Germination Method: The seed was pre-soaked for 24 hours in water with a few drops of hydrogen peroxide to encourage opening. The seed was then transferred to a moist Rockwool cube for further germination. Grow Box Environment: Set up with LED grow lights for a 20/4 light cycle (20 hours of light, 4 hours of darkness). Environmental Conditions: Temperature: Aimed for 22-25°C during light hours, keeping it no lower than 22°C at night. Humidity: Target was set initially for 70-80% for optimal seedling growth. Light: 20 hours per day to maximize vegetative growth. Nutrition and Water: pH Adjustment: Tap water was adjusted from 7.5 pH to 6 pH using pH Down solution. Water Volume: 2 liters of water in the container. Nutrients: Sensi Grow A: 0.25 ml/l (total of 0.5 ml for 2 liters). Sensi Grow B: 0.25 ml/l (total of 0.5 ml for 2 liters). Voodoo Juice: 0.5 ml/l (total of 1 ml for 2 liters) to encourage root development. Nutrient levels were kept at one-fourth the recommended dose due to the sensitivity of autoflower strains like Auto Blue Dream. Issues Encountered: Humidity Drop: One morning, humidity dropped significantly to 43%, likely due to the ventilation system balancing both temperature and humidity. This condition lasted for about 8 hours, leading to concerns over the health of the seedling. Temperature Fluctuations: Challenges with maintaining a stable temperature range while controlling humidity. Seed Shell Removal: The seedling initially struggled to shed its shell, prompting gentle manual assistance to avoid stunted growth. Adjustments Made: Fine-tuning the ventilation to stabilize both temperature and humidity for future stages. Regular monitoring to ensure that pH and nutrient concentrations are stable. Keeping a close eye on the seedling's development to identify any early-stage nutrient deficiencies or environmental stress. This first week was focused on establishing a stable environment for germination and early growth, while navigating initial challenges typical to a controlled grow setup. The focus remains on keeping conditions optimal for the sensitive seedling stage, where any major fluctuations can impact early development.
