Hi guys,
Started this purple lemonade auto from seeds I bought few years ago. I failed two times before this one, either the shell wouldn't go off the seed or the germination was too slow. I tried some pretty heavy scarring with sandpaper, put it in water 20 hours at 27-30 degrees, then two days in cotton at that temperature, put to soil and seemed to work like a charm. I sprinkled some Great White in the hole before planting, never used it so we'll see.
I use Biobizz Lightmix with maybe 1/4 - 1/3 perlite added to it. Watering with distilled water this week.
As of lighting I'm using this calculator https://growlightmeter.com/calculator/
You can see its mutated, some kind of variegation and curling, pretty ugly but I had the same mutation in my last grow in a much more severe form (had to dump em) than this one so I decided to give her a chance (having wasted two seeds beforehand helped lol).
Anyway as you'll see next week she turns out fine even if she's a bit funky.
Started nutrients on day 10
Although the mutation affects the shape of the leaves, they end up having a decent size and not too much variegation so I guess it's ok photosynthesis-wise.
I topped it at day 14 since the fourth set of leaves was already developing, and since my tent is small I don't want it to explode vertically. It's my first time topping an auto so maybe I'll hate myself for it but we'll see hahaha
