Grow # 3 - Northern Lights Auto

Welcome Back Gardeners , and sorry for the cancellation of the Auto Bluetooth Grow. With so many issues and the plants being autoflowers I just decided it was better to start over. So here we are for Grow # 3- Northern Lights Auto from Vision Seeds. The equipment used for this grow is listed below. ⦁ 24x48x60 HydroPlanet Grow Tent ⦁ Vivosun 300 watt LED Grow Light ⦁ Watt Shine 300 watt LED Grow Light ⦁ 4" Vivosun Carbon Filter and Exhaust Fan ⦁ 4 Northern Lights Autoflower Seeds (Vision Seeds) ⦁ 4 Plastic 3-Gallon Pots ⦁ 4" Mainstay Desktop Fan ⦁ Vicks Cool Mist Humidifier ⦁ 28" Mainstay 3-speed Oscillating Fan ⦁ Happy Frog Soil ⦁ AccuRite Humidity and Temperature Gauge ‎Thursday, ‎January ‎10, ‎2019 Here we are after about 11 days after ordering , and the seeds have arrived, fast and speedy shipping which was great. About 1:15 p.m today all four seeds were placed in a glass of water with a ph of 6.03. The seeds will be left alone for 16 hours or so , then they'll began part two of the germination process the "paper towel method". ‎Friday, ‎January ‎11, ‎2019 Around 10:00 a.m this morning the seeds were checked on and all four had sunk to the bottom. All four seeds were then placed on a paper towel along with some of the water from the glass , not all you just want it to be moist, then place them in a sandwich bag and put them in a warm dark place . I'll be checking on them every 8 hours or so just make sure the paper towel is still moist. It usually takes about a day sometimes a day and a half for them crack and have a 1/2" tap root then they'll be ready to plant. ‎Saturday, ‎January ‎12, ‎2019 Here we are back about 24 hours later to check on the seeds and out of the four one has a 1/2" inch tap root so it was planted and was labeled Plant # 1. Of the other three one has a tap root showing but isn't quite big enough yet to plant and for the other two one is cracked open but not showing a tap root yet and the other and is just beginning to crack open. ‎Sunday, ‎January ‎13, ‎2019 This evening we were finally able to put another seed into the soil with it's tap root finally reaching a 1/2" inch so we officially have Plant # 2. The other two seeds are still not showing anything yet still got them in the paper towel making sure it stays moist, not wet. Plant # 1 hasn't peaked above the soil yet but it should be within a day or so. ‎Monday, ‎January ‎14, ‎2019 As we checked on the ladies today there was no sign of them popping above the soil, so we gave them a quick mist to make sure the top soil stays moist and left them alone. As far as the other two seeds I placed them and their paper towel on two plates to see if we can get them to pop open. ‎Tuesday, ‎January ‎15, ‎2019 Woke up today and Plant # 1 was above the soil and standing straight up, Yay ! Hopefully here in a day or so Plant # 2 should be popping above the soil. I gave them a light misting to keep the top soil moist. As far as the other two seeds they are still in the paper towel moist but no sign still of them cracking open. I'm trying to have a little hope because some seeds just take a little longer to due their thing , If they aren't cracked open by the time Plant # 2 breaks through the soil I'll more than likely throw them out. I'll also will probably have two different journals on growdiaries.com one for Plant # 1 and Plant # 2 since they'll be on different timeline. ‎Wednesday, ‎January ‎16, ‎2019 Alright , a lot has changed in a day. Plant # 1 is doing wonderful and will be starting it's official day 1 tomorrow. As far as Plant # 2 it didn't make it checked on it and the root was brown and hadn't grown at all. As far as the others they didn't make it either. So it seems somewhere I went wrong in the germination process, and I think I had my paper towel too moist and not warm enough , so we ended up with 1 out of 4. Week 1 Avg. Humidity - 55.5 % Avg. Temp.- 77.2 F ‎Thursday, ‎January ‎17, ‎2019 (Day 1) Today begins the official start of our Northern Lights Autoflower Grow. For starters we made sure everything inside the tent was nice and clean. We also made sure the humidifier was full and working properly to keep the humidity high, and we also made sure our spray bottle had fresh water with a ph of 6.0 for misting throughout the day.Today I also ordered 2 more seeds : AK-49 Auto and Super Skunk Auto, which will have their own diary on my page. ‎Saturday, ‎January ‎19, ‎2019 (Day 3) Everything has been going great our NLA is looking great and is starting on it's second set of leaves. Our grow environment has also maintained with good temperature and humidity. The most that's had to be done is fill up the humidifier and give her a misting a few times a day. ‎Sunday, ‎January ‎20, ‎2019 (Day 4) Wonderful day in the garden today, our NLA is moving right along and her second set of leaves are now visible. We've been able to keep a great environment also without really doing much. With this being Day 4 our NLA received it's first official watering today, she was given 250 ml of water a ph of 6.0 , I like to mist instead of pour when watering at this stage so I don't disturb the soil while the plant is so young. ‎Monday, ‎January ‎21, ‎2019 (Day 5) Pretty normal and easy day in the garden today. We gave our NLA her first watering yesterday and seems like she has drunk all of her water, but we'll wait to water her again tomorrow. She'll get a few misting throughout the day so she'll be fine until then. We also filled up the humidifier and opened the tent for a bit to give her some fresh air, since I think she's still to small for the oscillating fan. ‎Tuesday, ‎January ‎22, ‎2019 (Day 6) Lovely day in the garden today, we took care of some basic maintenance in garden this morning , like wiping down the tent cleaning and refilling the humidifier, and dusting off the lights.Our NLA was given her second watering today, she was given 250 ml of water with a ph of 6.0 along with a light misting. I also checked her height today since she's almost a week old and she was about 1 1/2 inches tall. ‎Wednesday, ‎January ‎23, ‎2019 (Day 7) Here we are on the last day of week one for Northern Lights Autoflower grow. It's crazy how fast autoflowers grow once they get going. There wasn't much to do today in the garden except for a refill on the humidifier and giving her a light misting. She also is starting on her third node , which goes to show how good autos do in a great environment.
