Day 64.
As I mentioned, my plant is in a special soil mix that I made myself. It’s in the bottom third of the pot, and the rest is filled with Biobizz All-Mix.
So far, it seems like my own super soil mix and Biobizz All-Mix are giving my plant everything it needs. It’s growing really well and doesn’t need any extra food right now.
I’m trying to grow the most beautiful flowers organically, so I’m not adding any extra nutrients.
I’ve been watering the plants with clear, pH-balanced tap water.
The pH level of the water is 6.2.
The temperature of the water is 22°C.
The temperature of the dark/light time is 20.6/27°C.
The humidity level of the dark/light time is 61/49%
The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 680 μmol/m²/s.
The flower’s doing splendidly, and that’s all the exciting news I have for you!
Day 66.
I’ve been giving my plants a nice drink of clear, pH-balanced tap water.
The pH level of the water is 6.3.
The temperature of the water is 19°C.
The temperature of the dark/light time is 23/27°C.
The humidity level of the dark/light time is 61/50%
The light intensity at the closest point from the lamp to the flower is 710 μmol/m²/s.
The flower is thriving, and that’s all the exciting news I have for you!
Day 68.
I’ve been giving my plants a refreshing bath of clear, pH-balanced tap water.
The pH level of the water is 6.3.
The temperature of the water is 19°C.
The temperature of the dark/light time is 23/27°C.
The humidity level of the dark/light time is 58/49%
The flower is doing great, and that’s all the exciting news I have for you!
Day 70.
This is the fourth entry in an ongoing investigation into how carbonated water affects the growth of a plant in a nutrient-rich soil. The main idea is that the carbon dioxide in carbonated water will make the roots grow faster.
Here are some possible benefits:
More Carbon Dioxide: Carbonated water might let the roots take in more carbon dioxide directly, which could help the plant make more food and stay healthy.
Easier Nutrients to Get: Carbonated water is a bit acidic, which might make it easier for the plant to get certain nutrients from the soil.
Stronger Roots: Research shows that carbon dioxide in the soil can make the roots grow longer and branch out more, which could make the root system stronger.
But there are also some possible drawbacks:
Sudden pH Change: If you water the plant with carbonated water, the soil pH might drop too quickly, which could shock the roots and make it hard for the plant to get the right nutrients.
Imbalanced Nutrients: The acidity in carbonated water might make it harder for the plant to get the right mix of nutrients, which could lead to deficiencies or even damage the roots.
Bad Bacteria: Carbonated water might kill off good bacteria in the soil, which are important for getting nutrients and keeping the plant healthy.
Here’s what we’ve seen so far:
The topsoil got less compacted after we watered the plant with carbonated water. This might be because the carbon dioxide gas in the water broke up the soil particles.
The pH level of the sparkling water is 5.8.
The temperature of the sparkling water is 22°C.
The temperature of the dark/light time is 22/26°C.
The humidity level of the dark/light time is 61/50%
The flower’s growing like crazy, nothing else to report!
@Istjan96, Thank you for your wish. No, I have already grown the Tatanka strain previously a couple of times. I have one growth documented in my diary, and I also grew it two times without keeping a diary.
