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.

12nov25.2pm.Evening. NEW LAMP: VENOM 80W SMD5730 220Š’ (FL-P-011-80) (it works at 100%, no dimmer). The side shoots on second real node look strong to become main branches, so I started giving them more red light to make them stick out instead of just stunting growth. For the stimulation I took a blurple lamp which my plants always loved in the past at flowering, and set it at around the distance which they liked - 25 cm. I am going to SOG the plant, so now I am doing LST. I took two hooks which I used to free up those lower shoots (the shoots between the main stem and the second real internode), and give them more direct light. I hoped the plant would like the taste of the light and start following it. And yes, it started bending more to the side towards the yummy blurple light. šŸ‘‰ Substrate: 22C; Air: 25C; Humidity: 55%; Lighting intensity: 50%.

10nov25.2pm.Evening. I like the internodal distance. It is short and symmetric. A bit of light bleaching on top two layers of leaves. Brown tips on 1st couple of top leaves 😦 Lamp moved +3 cm upper. Side shoots appeared looking almost the same size as tip, which is great for my SOG/LST idea. Watering: 800ml tasted a tiny bit sour (which is better than the taste of soda/sulfur). Using my tongue as a pH tester. 15 cm circle around seedling was watered with a little distilled water just to moisten the substrate. I have been making holes for two days around the plant with a pen to give oxygen to roots. Substrate: 23C; Air: 25C; Lighting intensity: 50% same.

9nov25.11am.Evening. The plant finally started moving its leaves to adapt to the light. šŸ˜ Today, the old leaf on the second real node turned by 25%! It's on the left in the photo. While the plant is little, I'm afraid of pH problems because litle ones are more sensitive to rapid changes in pH, so I am still watering the root area and 15cm circle with distilled water (because I need same pH and the pH meter is broken). Watering: 1L (not distilled) for the whole pot, warm. Substrate: 21C; Humidity: 60%. Mulch added 0.5L horsetail. Sulfur elemental: 30gr in granules inserted 5cm deep.

8nov25.8am.Afternoon. LST training continues. Plant's stem buried under soil to make it shorter. First couple of lower leaves getting sick and yellowish 😟 perhaps because there is no pH meter. Horsetail dried applied as mulch. Watered with distilled water. Height: 4.3cm; Substrate: 22C. Air: 24C; Lighting intensity: 50%.

7nov25.1pm.Evening. LST Training continues; the plant must lie down 😓 horizontally to shorten the stem. This requires tuning lamp distance to 25cm. Elemental sulfur in fine powder 1 teaspoon on 15cm circle around the plug. Then watered with 150ml distilled water with sulfur powder on the walls of the glass. Sulfur was added because my pH meter broke and the next meter may arrive in 1-2 months, and in the meanwhile I need to lower the pH of the substrate and this will male the water which comes through it more acidic - exactly what I used to do with the old pH meter - I used it to pH down my 7.2-7.6 river water. Elemental sulfur granules applied across the whole surface of the pot. It was 1/3 of a 150ml glass. Horsetail 0.5L dried applied to surface, and then the surface got mulched 5cm deep (but I did not disturb the 15cm circle around the plug). Any ideas on how I can get my 7.2 pH to 6.1pH without a pH tester? My tongue sometimes fails me and I may think that 4pH tastes like 6pH which may cause heavy stress to plants. Should I stop using that acid pH down? Substrate: 22C. Air: 24C; Lighting intensity: 50%.
