Grow_Mary_Green Hi my dears,
Today the test seed from FastBuds named "FEM11" starts in my tent.... YEAHHHHH I'm excited 😇😍
I'm starting the germination process - with the glass of water method.
This time I'm using my germination container from CannaKan.
With 50ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide solution and 150ml of tap water (distilled water is supposed to be better). In a ratio of 1:3
After the first 12 hours, I submerged the seeds and after a total of 24 hours, I reduced the water level to the minimum. All 3 seeds have germinated nicely and are ready for the next phase. (Fem11 see photo 👆)
However, I'm giving them another 6 - 12 hours this time (so that the root is about 1.5 - 2cm long) Currently, it's about 0.8-1cm
Yeahh after another 7 hours, the seedling from Fem11 is ready to be planted. (SEE PHOTO 👆) (Total germination time 31 hours.)
Day 2:
After the 31 hours of germination and successful sprouting, I planted the seedling in about 0.6-liter pots with BioBizz Lightmix 70% and 30% Coco from Plagron pre-watered and placed it in a 2-3cm deep hole (of course in the middle of the pot).
I left the pot in the tent at 24°C & 80% humidity in the dark (see photo), with slight air circulation from a fan (but not directed at the pots) until the seedling slightly emerged from the soil. That happened on day 3.
Thus, the seedling phase is over, and I've set the light for day 4 (timer, distance, light intensity) The so-called first day of the seedling phase 😜🙌 and I hope to see you there too.
🌱😍 Happy Growing

Grow_Mary_Green Hi my dear ones, 🤗
The 2nd week of the growth phase is coming up...
...and reality hits.
I tried to run this grow with a higher VPD value and thus without having to add extra CalMag. According to a study, with an increased VPD, no additional CalMag needs to be added under LEDs. However, I'm still watering with tap water.
So I took a look at the values from my water utility. In my water, I have Calcium = 78 mg/l and Magnesium = 5.3 mg/l, resulting in a ratio of 14:1 😰. This is quite far from the optimal supply of 2:1 - 4:1 CalMag... 😅
The best solution would be to use a filtration system like the Watertrim. A cheaper option is to get Mono-Magnesium (or Mono-Calcium if needed) and balance the water in the right ratio.
_________________________________________________________
Optimal CalMag supply in the individual phases:
Seedling:
Cal: 50-60 mg/l
Mag: 20-30 mg/l
Growth:
Cal: 80-100 mg/l
Mag: 30-50 mg/l
Flowering:
Cal: 100-120 mg/l
Mag: 40-60 mg/l

Beautiful frosty buds with very gassy terps... The smell is extremely nice. Sweet and gassy, definitely something for the evening.
About the grow:
The growing was quite easy, she's very strong, prefers EC values when watering up to 1.6-1.8 and has a strong stretch, making her quite tall.
