VPD: 0.8kPa throughout the seedling stage, leading up to the start of veg.
Water: Dechlorinated, filtered, and aerated tap water.
Container size: 10 Gal. Fabric pots
Soil: 75%Pro-Mix HP, 25%EWC, 5% mix of Down to Earth Organics vegetable Garden 4-4-4, Gaia Green all purpose 4-4-4, ~ 1/4 cup Mykos
Environment: 77 Deg. F. 85% humidity
Lights: Germinated* under SF-1000
Germination: soaked 18 hours in dechlorinated tap water, than placed into damp paper towels for 48 hours, then planted into forever home.
Notes: I may have slightly overwatered in the beginning, setting the vigorous growth I initially expected to occur in the sprout to be slightly set back a few days.

Environment is essentially the same as from the previous week on change is the switch to the SE4500 dimmed to 20% hanging about 22 inches above seedling. Just cruising through, watching for early signs of issues at this point.

Lights lowered to 20 inches and increased dimmer to 25%
Notes: starting to notice some purple color in the stem of the fan leaves, also noticing some pistil development hoping I didn’t stress the plant into an early flower. At this point I wasn’t ph’ing properly but I didn’t catch it until the following week. Also eliminated the two lowest lateral branching sites to refocus growth towards laterals that wouldn’t necessarily have an issue competing for space after LST.

Towards the end of this week I started to up my water to 10% of my container volume size once a week and 5% in between. Also tried out Recharge compost tea for the first time when I increased water volume. It didn’t seem to hurt the process at all. Also started to implement some light defoliation techniques taking maybe 1-3 leaves every 1-3 days. A tad more aggressive with the LST this week. This is also the fist time the plant will be too dressed with more Down To Earth 4-4-4, and EWC.

Starting to slightly smell, still implementing defoliation and LST techniques. Did another compost tea w/recharge watering 5% of container volume almost every day and 10% once a week. Top dressed with build a soil, build a flower, amd craft blend along with some more EWC.
