Strawberry Banana (Green Nuggets Seeds)

Sit Back, Relax, and Watch the Magic Happen 🌱💨 Yo growers, what’s good? Buckle up because this diary is gonna hit differently. Instead of bombarding you with daily updates, I’ll keep it clean and simple—weekly highlights, straight to the point. Less scrolling, more growing. Let’s get into it! Seeds Are Here! Big news: the seeds have officially landed! Massive shout-out to wietzadenshop.nl for the lightning-fast delivery. I snagged 20 seeds for €54.95 (hella bargain!) and got two bonus seeds thrown in. That’s less than €3 per seed—zero complaints here. For this grow, I’m germinating 15 seeds and will pick the 12 strongest ladies to carry the torch. Let’s manifest some A+ germination vibes. ✨ Germination Setup 🌊🌡️ Here’s the plan: these little beauties are soaking in a mix of water, CalMag, and Startbooster. EC: 1.1 (Oops, a smidge high, but it’ll be fine.) pH: 6.5 (right in the sweet spot!) Water Temp: 23°C (perfect for that germ magic). I’ve set them up in a cool 19°C space, but to keep things cozy, I’ve got lights running 18/6 at 240W, 60 cm above. Let’s face it—lights are way cheaper than cranking up the heat. 😅 Quick Progress Report: 18-11 @ 10:15 AM: 4 out of 15 seeds are already cracking open! That 18/6 light cycle is doing its thing. 19-11 @ 10:16 AM: 7 seedlings have emerged, and those cute little cotyledons are starting to unfurl. I’ll wait until 12 are up before moving them to bigger pots. The Plan for This Grow 🌿✨ Lighting: Seedling Stage: 1x Meijiu LED (240W) at 18/6. Veg Stage: All 4 LEDs at 240W each, still 18/6. Flowering Stage: Same LEDs, switched to 12/12. Nutrients & Irrigation: I’m rolling with Plagron Cocos A&B, CalMag, and Startbooster. Once the first 10 days are done, Blumats will take over irrigation, pulling from a 270L reservoir held steady at ~18°C to avoid overheating drama like last time. Oh, and I’m reusing coco coir for the first time—curious to see how that goes! CO2 Experiment: Switching things up with CO2 this round: Starting at 1200 PPM during veg and the first two weeks of flower. Gradually dialing it down after week 2 and cutting it completely by week 3 when the exhaust kicks in. Why? I’ve noticed CO2 works better in early stages, and it avoids heat issues later on. Efficiency is the name of the game. What’s Next: Monitor how the nutrient reservoir holds up at 18°C. Transplant the strongest seedlings into bigger pots. Dial in the Blumats for consistent watering. That’s the game plan for this week. Now, it’s time to kick back, spark one, and let the plants do what they do best. 🌬️💨 Drop your tips or thoughts in the comments—especially if you’ve got experience with reused coco coir or CO2 setups. ✌️
