Starting the new Batch.
Germination in a Glass of Water.
This run will be my first time using the Autopot system with pebbles and coco substrate.
The nutrient schedule will follow the product line from the company Canna.
The seeds from Royal Queen Seeds got off to an excellent start. They germinated within 24 hours and grew directly in the coco substrate. So far, there hasn’t been any indication of issues with the seeds. However, I must say that I’m not a fan of germination in a water glass. In the future, I’ll tend to germinate directly in the substrate so that the shell can shed more easily.
The Mimosa from RQS, like the Blueberry from Zamnesia, has also grown very well and steadily. However, after the first round of fertilization, slight signs of burning or deficiencies appeared. I hope to resolve these issues as quickly as possible.
PH 5,9
PPFD 400
EC 1,5
The Mimosa has grown without any problems so far. The genetics from Royal Queen Seeds are performing as well as always. However, I hope I don’t overfeed the plants with the mineral fertilizer.
All the plants are developing well. As mentioned in the other grow, all the plants showed signs of nitrogen deficiency. This was reduced or resolved within 48 hours using Canna Nitrogen as a spray applied under the leaves (stomata).
Topping of the plants was then continued, followed by LST training after observing them for 12 hours (overnight) to ensure they had recovered well from the topping.
All the plants have recovered from the nitrogen deficiency using the method of increasing the nutrient solution and applying Canna Mono Nitrogen in a 1:1000 solution with a spray bottle. The Mimosa is growing and growing! It's a lot of fun to watch. Like all the other plants, it currently requires quite a bit of care to guide the shoots in the right direction. The plant on the left, which had issues at the beginning, has fully developed this week and is now on par with the other plants.
For a week now, the roots have reached the bottom of the pots and can now draw water through the Autopot system, which is working very well. However, I made the mistake of adding Canna Rhizotonic to the nutrient solution, which led to contamination in the tubing system. Fortunately, I was able to fix this easily by cleaning it. It's important not to use organic fertilizers like Rhizotonic or Boost Accelerator in the Autopot system. These need to be applied to the plants from above as usual.
At the moment, I’m concerned about the EC value (the electrical conductivity of the nutrient solution measured in Siemens per meter), which is at 2.7 when it should ideally be at 1.7. I’m still investigating the cause of this issue.
The RQS Mimosa is developing beautifully and going totaly NUTZ!!!! Since the end of this week, the plants have been receiving Boost Accelerator. Here too, you can literally watch them grow.
The Mimosa is just delicious! It smells wild, and the plant stems are extremely sticky. The trichomes are growing amazingly well, and they grow on the leaves extremely. I hope the buds will turn out big and strong. So far, I'm really impressed.
