Germination
11d ago
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 Everything is looking great with her this week. She was kind of small at the beggining of the week but at the end of the week she was putting on some nice green lush new growth. Was fed once with liquid kelp and cal-mag.

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 I am liking what Im seeing with the structure of this plant. I gave a slight haircut to the bottom and topped the main stem and tucked the leaves, watered once with my normal feed and left her alone and by end of week shaping up good and looking like I will be able to take a few clones soon.

MindFlowers68 With the other plants put of the tent I can start thinking about getting my scrog net in and begin developing the canopy level. I usually have already vegged plants moving from another tent into this flower tent and have to bend quite dramatically to get to fit under the net but this time I should be able to train her into without snapping branches like I seem to do. I'm also hoping that I can cut a week or two off of my veg time too in the process. She got plain water early in the week and the cal-mag/kelp solution towards the end of the week. Going to top dress and fed with some compost tea this week to get those feed roots going and try to mulch the top to prevent them from air pruning off. I haven't really been able to think about mulch because of the other plants I had in he way. I dont think i want to use pine shavings like i did last time just because it makes it harder to top dress if i have to.
