MindFlowers68 The seed(s) were soaked overnight with regular filtered water that was aerated. Seeds were then placed in 1 gal plastic pots. I usually start my seeds in 5 gal fabric pots but I was limited on space. Also doing more strains at one time than usual so I can have some variety of clones available for friends and family. Instead I decided to germinate my seeds in 1 gal this time and see how things went but had a harder time with a few of them. It was not until the seedlings got fee compost tea they started to take off. I was unable to get vermiculite or perlite at the store at the time of starting the seeds so I mixed some violet mix i had sitting around had some mixed in it. The mix was mostly peat and lava rock left over and worm castings with some gia green 4-4-4 and glacial rock dust. Mosquito bits were also added. Once the seeds sprouted I added some microbes and fungi powder. In the future If I have the space will stick to doing my seed starting in 3-5 gal fabric pots.

MindFlowers68 Seedlings all growing at expected rate. Added soluble root zone to the seedlings again, and they got their first feeding. Some liquid kelp and cal-mag. They were only watered once for the whole week. The PPFD at the canopy level was set to around 250 with my my lights at 100 percent at the top of the tent.

MindFlowers68 Some of the plants showing more signs of yellowing from watering issues and ph issues. Luckily I was able to get a nice strong batch of Boogie Brew compost tea made and gave them all a nice soak and bath with it. Within two days all but one of the plants bounced back. Now that the plants are able to fend for themselves a little better was a good opportunity to try to harden them off the ones going outside to the elements outside. I did so by placing on a shaded part of my deck for a few hours. I was also able to get my tent inside ready and they were moved from the small cool grows tent to my 4x8 tent with my big lights. I adjusted the light to be around 500 PPFD at canopy.

MindFlowers68 I was able to transplant her into new 65 gallon home and get a view of how the roots are doing. I watered in with a rich brew of compost tea to inoculate its new home with microbe and fungal friends!

MindFlowers68 Super liking the structure of this plant. Very pine tree like and I purposfully planted the branches at a 45 degree angle to the side walls of my tent so that when it fills out it will be easier to reach the far corners rather than fighting the long branches running directly into the side right away. Got a little haircut on the bottom and topped main stem after I watered with around 2 gallons liquid kelp and cal-mag.

MindFlowers68 She's just doing her thing this week sprouting out those new shoots from after toping. I watered with just water early in the week and later in the week got cal-mag kelp solution. Going to give a top dress this week and brew a batch of compost teat and I want to try mulching with something i noticed the roots were hanging out under the other 1 gallon pits sitting on top. Not sure if they were enjoying the extra nutrients or just using it as mulch.
