Kirsten Hey friends! ๐งก I am starting this grow thanks to James at Royal Queen Seeds!
I finally have the ultimate seeds to experiment with, and you know I'm beyond excited ๐
F1 Hybrids, as you might know, are identical phenotypes produced by crossing from In Bred Lines (IBL's). This ensures that every plant is the same, and thus, experimenting with these will hopefully produce some very valuable and interesting results.
This is a dream come true for me, as I'm endlessly curious for all knowledge, especially biology.
So, with that being said, I give many thanks to James and RQS for providing me with these Orion F1 seeds to play with!
For these experiments, I am making 2 diaries on advice from some of you lovely folks!
It was decided that it would be easier to document each plant separately. This will be a grow with mostly dry amendments by Ecothrive and all organic.
(Living soil custom mix).
The second plant will receive liquid nutrients, mainly Greenleaf Nutrients. (Substrate only containing canna coco, worm castings, and perlite.)
So make sure to check out the other diary. Otherwise, the experiments are rather pointless ๐
Come along on this one, I have very high hopes! ๐โ๏ธ๐๐๐ฑ๐
11.5.25:
The seeds were planted, and watered in with dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with a tiny amount of Ecothrive Biosys.
This is the soil mix I used. 5 gallon / 19l pot contained approximately;
โก Canna Coco (7l)
๏ธโก Perlite (5l)
โก Worm Castings (2l)
๏ธโก Coffee Grounds (1/2 cup)
โก Activated Carbon Pellets. (1 cup) at base of pot.
๏ธโก Recharged soil from previous grow (pre-amended with Ecothrive Life Cycle and Ecothrive Charge) (4.5l)
โก Dry Amendments โก
โ Ground Cinnamon
โ Diatomaceous Earth
โ Ecothrive Charge
โ Ecothrive Life Cycle
โ RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules
โ Great White Mycorrhizal Fungi blend
โงโง Watered the seed in, with dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 and Ecothrive Biosys 1/16 tsp/l.
I'll be back when we see some leaves! ๐ ๐๐ฑโ๏ธ๐ โงโง
