mlodygrower 🌱 Week Germination (April 18 – April 22) April 18 – 16:20 Preparing water for soaking the seed. Used 1L of tap water left to stand for 24h. Added 2ml of Canna Rhizotonic and adjusted the pH. Final values: pH 6.1, EC 300 µS/cm, temp 24°C (~75°F). Dropped the seed into a shot glass with ~40ml of the solution and placed it in a dark cupboard (ambient temp ~24°C). April 19 – 16:20 No signs of cracking yet – waiting another 24h. April 20 – 06:00 Noticed the seed beginning to crack and a small taproot emerging (no photos). Decided to move the seed to soil – CANNA Terra Professional in a ~1L (or 0,5l, shame on me but I'm not sure) peat pot, sowed ~3cm deep. Before placing the seed into the soil, I added a small pinch of Great White Premium Mycorrhizae into the hole to support root development from the start and put seed inside hole. 🌱💪 After that, I carefully covered the hole with loose soil – no pressure, just a light layer to keep everything in place. Then I gently watered the spot with 20ml of the prepared solution using a pipette. The pot went into the grow box, placed on a heating mat set to 77°F, and covered with a glass. A small 2W Chinese LED above the glass provides minimal light from the start. April 21 No signs of sprouting yet. April 22 – 20:00 New life appears – she’s finally broken through the soil! 🌱 For the first week, she’ll be under the Spider Farmer SF1000 set between 20–30% (20–30W) - 24h schedule.

mlodygrower 🌿 Week Vegetative - Week 1 (April 23 onwards) April 23 – Morning Noticed the stem stretching slightly. Raised the pot closer to the light and gave 5ml of plain, dechlorinated water via pipette (didn’t bother checking pH/EC this time). April 23 – Afternoon Still looked a bit stretched, so I raised the pot a little more. Current light height: 45cm from the top, at 30% power. Conditions under the dome: 25.5°C / 85% RH Box environment: 27°C / 40% RH Once I finish writing the code for my climate controller, I’ll stabilize RH automatically. Still figuring out how to manage rising temps – I don’t have an AC unit. For now, I activated a basic on/off cycle for the exhaust fan (5 min on / 5 min off) to see if it helps reduce temps a bit. If not, I’ll consider adding an intake fan pulling in cooler air from the window or look for other solutions. PS. Excuse me for duplicate firsts photos from Germination weeks.
