Gorilla Cookies Auto & Trainwreck Auto (Fast Buds) | First Indoor Grow

happy_plants Seed Preparation: The seeds were soaked in a glass of water for 24 hours, followed by 6 hours in a damp paper towel. Once the seeds began to crack, they were planted 1.5 cm below the soil surface in 12L fabric pots. To prevent nutrient burn, a 5 cm cone of potting soil was placed in the middle of each pot. A PET bottle cut in half was placed on top to maintain high humidity. Leaf Temperature: 21-23°C 12.2.2025 (Day 2): The seedlings emerged from the soil two days after planting. They started under 270 PPFD, which was increased to 350 PPFD by day four. A gentle airflow was introduced to keep the seedlings swaying slightly. The PET bottles were removed once the seedlings emerged. Day 5: To maintain moisture, the substrate surface is regularly misted, and 200 ml of water is applied in a 5 cm radius around each plant. The substrate was fully watered two days before planting. Water parameters: EC 320, pH ~6.5. Day 6: PPFD is regulated by adjusting the LED intensity and keeping a minimum distance of 10 cm between the plants and light source. Starting at 350 PPFD, the intensity is gradually increased to around 410 PPFD in the second seedling week. The PC fans now run 24/7, replacing the previous 20-minute on / 10-minute off cycle. Day 7: One plant showed reduced leaf surface, prompting the PPFD to be lowered back to 300. The FC4000-EVO LED light, reviewed positively by Dr. MJ Coco for its even light distribution at 75% power and 11" distance, is now set at 11" height and 20% power, providing 300 PPFD.
