HumanCompanion I am planning to germinate the seed in the plug and later feed it with Green House Seeds Hybrids powdered chemical fertilizer. The dosage will be only 25% of the recommended dose. I am giving the seeds 2 days for germination in a darkened place (but the light from window comes in). Temperature: 27 when the seeds were put into jiffy peat plug with almost 100 ml of distilled water + hydrogen peroxide 1% solution. I did not have enough peroxide so I made only 25 ml of 1% solution (soaked the plugs and waited for 3 hours), and that was not enough because the plugs were half-dry, so I ammended the rest with enough distilled water (after those 3 initial hours of soaking), and let the plug balance its pH for about 4 hours. It was late at night at 23:00 when I unpacked the original blistered packaging with a needle of a syringe, and the seed fell into the whole in the plug. I placed the plug in a cut off bottom of plastic bottle (washd before), and melted it so that the plug now fits tightly without shaking. I put toilet paper on top to let the seeds breath through this improvised filter. The temperature is being kept no lower than 26C. In the past I have alrady used these unsuccesful methods of germination, and I do not recommend them: -paper towel; -napkins; -rockwool cubes (they dry up too fast). In the future I will continue using those jiffy peat plugs, but I wish they were bigger because I am afraid they can dry up because they are only 6 cm in width. šŸ˜— please LEGALIZE cannabis. I will just buy it in a shop from real masters, and then decide what I like more to grow at home. šŸ™šŸ‘ Link to Green House Seeds page for this strain: https://shop.greenhouseseeds.nl/feminised-cannabis-seeds/lemon-orange/

HumanCompanion This is the 1st day without a helmet. šŸ˜… I had to remove the cap with my fingers. Even 75% humidity for 24 hours did not help. The helmet was robust, and difficult to remove, but I had to do it after 4 days in helmet! FEEDING HYDROPONICALLY: 1/4 of dosage, i.e. 2.5/4 = 0.625mg of Green House's Powder Feeding Hybrids (dry powder which you mix with water and water the plugs with 5-10 ml of hydroponic solution even if they are not dry, simply cycle 10ml every day through the plug, and let the rest of water run through the plug and just sit in the tray with the plug. WATER: distilled.

HumanCompanion The seedling looks very healthy, not a single deformity or yellow tips, so I guess the concentration of fertilizer should be kept at this level. Fertilizer: Green House Feeding Hybrids. Dose: 1/4 of recommended, i.e. (2.5g / 4) = 1ml of base + 9ml of distilled water. Height: 9.5cm. Problem: the stem is stretched because of 2 mistakes: 1) fist week the distance to the lamp was 40 cm instead of 30cm (fixed); 2) the helmet head got stuck for many days in darkness and the seed tried to get closer to the light (fixed). Hopefully the 80mm fan will strengthen the stem.

HumanCompanion 14nov25, 2pm. 3 weeks, 22 days (now is the beginning of week 4) since dropping helmet. LST training continued with the next pair of real leaves, i.e. at the moment 2 pairs of real leaves (lacerated) leaves are being bent down by hooks, why? to promote side buds' growth. Substrate: 22C; Air: 25C; Humidity: 55%; Distance to upper lamp (Mars Hydro): 25cm; Distance to blurple Venom 80W: 23 cm; Lighting intensity: 50%.

Afternoon. Light intensity: 10%20%. For my eyes, it seemed like the light got 2 times stronger, although I only increased it from 10 to 20% šŸ˜Ž and planning to increase DLI to 25% by the beginning of week 3 = +1% a day. I gave more % because the plant's internode's proportions were looking more stretched that the results I saw with stronger intensity. Trying to be safe than harmful, so I started with 20% for not to scare the plant )) hahahhaaa. Now the seedling is at Week 2 of vegetation. One true set of leaves is visible with its leaves being 1.5 cm long, and on the little second node the real leaves are tiny yet, only 3mm each. Medium: jiffy peat plug. Distance from plant - 30 cm. Seed helmet manually removed 128 hours ago. Watering (hydro): distilled 9ml + 1 ml base (1/4 of recommended dose by Green House Feeding Hybrids fertilizer which has a recommendation for young plants: 2.5g/10Liters. So, for seedlings I use 1/4 of 2.5g/10L concentration for base , and I take 1 ml of that base + 9ml of distilled = 10ml solution every day. The lamp is Mars Hydro FC1500 EVO 150W LED Grow Light — Samsung LM301H EVO.

@HumanCompanion, going from 10 to 20% is twice as bright haha..

HumanCompanion commented15d ago
@Green_claws, I was lucky it went fine! The plant is looking greener though. I should have done it slower nevertheless, right? It was great I got lucky with this mistake.

5nov25,22:20. 46h since transplantation. After 2 nights in new pot. End of week 2 of vegetation. šŸ™Œ Seed dropped helmet 310h ago. Seed was transplanted 279h after losing helmet. Water: 100ml distilled + 100ml drinking water (mistake: I forgot to measure pH. Usually this water's p is 7.2, so distilled + 7.2 may be 6.3?); Substrate: 22C. Air: 23C; Lighting intensity: 50%. The pot gets watered 500-1500 ml of 6.1pH plain water every day depending on how fast its surface gets dry. I kept it dry, but now I want it to be moist even on the surface. I don't want dry crust at this moment. The plant is healthy and pleasant to look at, and juicy. šŸ˜‹

4nov25. Evening. 279 hours after dropping helmet TRANSPLANTATION šŸ‘‰ comes. Water: 200ml distilled; Soil pH: 6.4 (1:1 water:soil ratio); Substrate: 27C. Air: 26C; Lighting intensity: 50%. New pot: 70 Liters. Substrate temp was too high: 27C, so I TURNED OFF THE HEATING MAT (bokashi inoculation was on 20th Sep) anyway, bokashi have been fermenting for 1.5 months. Watering: Step 1: water the spot for the plug before placing it into hole; Step 2: water the seedling around after replanting (15 cm circle).

2nov2025. 2pm. Evening. The amount of roots which grow from the bottom/sides of the plug has increased by 25% šŸ™Œ on one day. There are some discoloured areas on edges of the second pair of leaves. I called this infection 'chlorosis' in the past, but now I may think it is some kind of mosaic virus šŸ‘¹. However, today the pale areas have either got greener or smaller because the leaf has grown bigger and dwarfed the problematic patches. The strawberries are signalling the soil is still a bit problematic, but overall the condition of the soil is at its best for the last month. The heating pad is keeping the substrate warm, and hopefully bokashi have already stopped shaking pH (first bokashi innoculation done on 20 sep; temps were kept at 30C for 1 day, and then 27C with heating pad. Water pH 5.5). The soil needs testing for pH because the second pair of real leaves (the plant already has 1 pair of real leaves with 1 sub-leaf + 1 pair of real leaves with 3 sub-leaves) is getting the plant ready for replanting into its main pot. I want the substrate to be ready for the plant in about 5-7 days, so I stopped keeping the surface dry (against fungus gnats). Now I am watering the soil with at least 500ml water every day (yesterday I used 1700ml of pH6.1 water at 33 C). Humidity: 65%; Air: 24C; Substrate: 24C.

30oct2025. Morning + Evening. The plant was looking unhealthy as if there was some nutrient problem, so I -50% the PPM (-50% to the concentration of ferts). In the morning of the next day there were many new roots šŸ’Ŗ at the bottom of the plug. Air: 23C. Humidity: 68%. Substrate 25C.

28oct2025. Evening. The plant was hydro watered in the afternoon. The first set of true leaves is visible. The stem between them is short šŸ‘Œ (0.3mm).

6nov25. 11pm. 2 weeks after helmet. pH meter broke down. 😱 I am using my tongue for metering pH. Plant training started - plant bent. PS all my photos in my posts below have gone - the site has removed them without saying a word. 2 weeks of filming every day.

3 nov '25. Afternoon. Light intensity set at 50% šŸ’Ŗ because leaves were looking like bleak salad, and there was not much progress for a couple days. Lamp lowered to 25 cm because it's a cold winter. An 80mm fan is blowing upon the seedling. Humidity: 60%; Air: 25C; Substrate: 25C.

31oct2025. 1pm. Evening. The second pair of leaves has become greener šŸ‘½ , and the yellowish tissues have almost gone. It must have happened thanks to the right PPM! The root hairs on them have got bigger. To save the humidity for the delicate hairs I half-closed the pot with a lid. Humidity: 66%; Air:24C; Substrate: 25C.
