DankieDoodle ๐ฑ DankieDoodle โ Week 1 (09.11.2025) | Germination & Early Seedling Stage
๐ง Day 1 โ The Beginning
Seeds dropped: Pure Runtz (T.H. Seeds), Strawberry Poprocks (Anesia Seeds) & Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds).
After 24 h in water, all three showed short white taproots (~0.5 mm).
Substrate prepped 48 h earlier:
Coco Perlite (70/30) + Lightmix + Worm Humus + Zeolite + Vermiculite + Silicium Flash + Startrex + BioTabs.
Moistened with RootJuice (1 ml/L) + Heaven (2 ml/L) + Epsom salt (0.15 g/L).
Seeds placed root-tip down, lightly covered and watered (~100 ml).
๐ก Environment: 25โ27 ยฐC | 85 % RH | 300 ยตmol/mยฒ/s @ 40 % | 18/6 light
๐ฏ Goal: steady moisture & upright seedlings by Day 6
๐ฟ Day 2โ3 โ Sprouting Success
Radical Juice cracked first, followed by Pure Runtz & Strawberry Poprocks within 48 h.
All three emerged strong โ bright green cotyledons, no stretch, balanced growth.
๐ง Water: ~100 ml each (RootJuice 1 ml/L + Heaven 2 ml/L + Epsom 0.15 g/L)
Environment stable at 25โ27 ยฐC & 85 % RH under the dome.
๐ฆ Day 4 โ Light Misting
Surface lightly misted to maintain even moisture; substrate still perfectly airy.
Color uniform & healthy light green. Dome remains on for stability.
๐ฟ Day 5 โ First Proper Watering
Seedlings compact & symmetrical, roots expanding well.
๐ง 100 ml each (same formula as before, no runoff).
Everything balanced โ next watering in ~48 h.
๐ฑ Day 6โ7 โ Root Building Mode
Growth slow above ground but steady below.
Cotyledons open, first true leaves appearing.
๐ง 250 ml per pot across the surface to encourage lateral roots.
๐ก Environment: 25โ27 ยฐC | 85 % RH | 300 ยตmol | 18/6
๐ Week 1 Summary
All three seeds germinated successfully โ strong starts with no stress or stretch.
Substrate & climate stable; roots developing as planned.
๐ฏ Next weekโs focus:
โข Increase light to ~400 ยตmol
โข Hold RH 70โ75 %
โข Minimal, consistent watering
โข Prepare for first training stage ๐ฟ

DankieDoodle ๐ฟ DankieDoodle ๐๏ธ Week 2 (16.11.2025)
๐๏ธ Vegetative Day 1
The girls officially enter the vegetative phase today!
All three seedlings Pure Runtz, Strawberry Poprocks, and Radical Juice look healthy and vibrant.
Cotyledons are still green and open, and the first set of serrated leaves has expanded nicely.
You can already see that the stems are starting to thicken a bit, and the leaf color is a clean, bright green perfect for this stage.
No stretch issues, meaning the light distance and PPFD (~300 ยตmol/mยฒ/s) are spot on.
๐ง Watering:
Each pot received 250 ml of water evenly distributed over the surface.
No additives this time just clean water to activate the microbes and keep the substrate alive.
The mix still feels perfectly balanced: airy, moist but not wet.
So far everything feels in sync calm start, no stress, and a nice steady rhythm.
The real growth phase begins now ๐ฟโจ
๐๏ธ Vegetative Day 2
Today was a calm day with no watering the substrate still felt evenly moist.
๐๏ธ Vegetative Day 3
๐ง Watering:
Today each plant received ~500 ml of water according to our BioTabs schedule:
RootJuice (1 ml/L) + Heaven (2 ml/L) + Epsom (0.15 g/L).
No runoff, just slow and steady absorption to keep the microbial zone active.
๐ก Lighting Update:
Light intensity increased from 300 โ 350 ยตmol/mยฒ/s (@ 50 % power) on the Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO.
This should help the young plants strengthen their stems and boost early leaf development without causing stress.
A smooth and balanced start to early veg the rhythm feels right. ๐ฟ
๐๏ธ Vegetative Day 4
Nothing special today the plants continue to look stable and symmetrical.
No watering needed as the substrate still feels evenly moist.
Leaves remain flat and vibrant green with no stretch or stress.
๐๏ธ Vegetative Day 5
๐ง Watering:
Today each plant received ~500 ml of water according to our BioTabs schedule:
RootJuice (1 ml/L) + Heaven (2 ml/L) + Epsom (0.15 g/L).
No runoff, just slow and steady absorption to keep the microbial zone active.
๐๏ธ Vegetative Day 6
No visible changes today just slow and consistent progress.
All three (Pure Runtz, Strawberry Poprocks, Radical Juice) maintain good color and structure.
Roots are clearly expanding below the surface exactly the calm phase before the next growth burst.
๐๏ธ Vegetative Day 7
A calm day for all three girls โ no action today.
Just maintaining stable conditions and letting the roots keep expanding.
All steady still focusing on root growth and internode development ๐ฑ

DankieDoodle ๐ Vegetative โ Week 2, Day 1
Today all three plants Pure Runtz, Strawberry Poprocks, and Radical Juice were watered evenly with 1 L each, following the standard feeding plan.
The substrate absorbed it beautifully, no runoff, nice distribution through the top layer.
๐ง Water Mix:
RootJuice 1 ml/L
Biobizz Heaven 2 ml/L
Epsom Salt 0.15 g/L
pH natural (7.4 tap water)
The plants look strong, bright green, and symmetrical, great early veg development!
๐ก Environment:
Temp: 25โ26 ยฐC
RH: 70 %
PPFD: ~400 ยตmol/mยฒ/s (Mars Hydro FC4000 EVO @ 50 %)
Cycle: 18/6
The girls are now entering active growth next few days should bring more leaf expansion and visible progress ๐ฟโจ
๐ Vegetative โ Week 2, Day 2 โ 5
Nothing major this time the plants are in full establishment mode.
After the last watering (1 L per pot following the nutrient schedule), the substrate still feels evenly moist and perfectly aerated.
All three ladies โ Pure Runtz (T.H.Seeds), Strawberry Poprocks (Anesia Seeds), and Radical Juice (Ripper Seeds) show steady, symmetrical growth with no stress signs.
Leaves are broad, flat, and rich green, with short internodes exactly what you want for a dense SCROG canopy later.
A calm mid-week everything running smooth and balanced
