Red Hot Cookies - Sweet Seeds

FumateAlgoo First week and we're still feeling positive! The seedlings are starting to grow and open up, they look strong and hopefully they'll keep it up. They're still in the propagator to maintain good humidity, since at this stage the roots are just beginning to form. Most of the water is absorbed through the leaves, so there's not much need for watering, but rather keeping the humidity high in these first weeks.

FumateAlgoo Ah, good! A new little week! I started adding CalMag because I noticed a slight deficiency: the tips of the first leaves were dry and the new ones were starting to turn a bit yellow at the edges. Also, in these waterings, I lowered the pH a bit by adding the solution with more acidic water to regulate it. So I estimate it should be around 6.4 now, which is still a good range.

FumateAlgoo 🌱 Wrapping up week 3 with good news 🌱 Indeed, that deficiency I was noticing was related to calcium and magnesium. After adding Calmag, the plants started to show more vigor and better development. A few days ago, I transplanted to 11L pots, probably the final ones, although this will depend on how we progress in the coming weeks. 💪 Since that transplant, I also started to include BioGrow in the watering to boost growth. 📝 Useful tip: Before transplanting, I waited for the substrate to be a bit drier and more compact, which made the process much easier. Then, in that first watering post-transplant, I took the opportunity to apply fertilizers. We keep moving forward and seeing changes day by day! 🚀🌿

FumateAlgoo 🌱 Wrapping up week 4 and the plants are looking vigorous 💪 After the transplant, the girls have shown to be quite strong and are adapting very well to the change. It's clear that the previous work paid off. I noticed a slight nitrogen deficiency, so in the next watering, I’m going to add a few extra milliliters of Bio Grow to correct it. For now, everything is going excellently and the plants are responding wonderfully. 🌿 Helpful tip: A few days before the transplant (week 3), I gave the 11-liter pots at least 1 liter of water with a minimal dose of Root Juice. This was to prepare and moisten the substrate, which made the transplant much easier and avoided the need to overwater this week. We keep giving love and attention to the grow! 🌞🌱

FumateAlgoo 🌱 Week 5 of cultivation: Changes are noticeable! 🌱 This week was key: we moved the plants to a tent more suitable for their size, as they have grown a lot! You can tell they are in full development stage, not only by their size but also by their appetite: they are asking for more water than before. Since we have been adding fertilizers from the beginning, in these last waterings I decided to use only pH-controlled water with a very low EC. This allows me to balance the substrate and avoid over-fertilization, which could be counterproductive at this stage. Everything is going smoothly, and the plants are responding very well. We remain attentive and eager to see how they evolve in this stage. See you next week with more updates! 🌿💧✨
