sanibelisl This morning she had broken ground so today is day one. The shell is still covering everything and looks pretty cool. I am hoping that by days end she will have shed the seed shell and standing an inch or so above the surface. Watering will be done by hand held sprayer only with a mild solution with some Rhizotonic to promote root growth. She will receive all blue spectrum light for the next 7-14 days and we will start the distance at about twelve inches from the top. Light schedule will be 24/0 for 10-14 days then go to an 18/6 schedule for veg and flower. ***Day 2*** All is well this morning. She shed the shell overnight and is fine. First set of true leaves are already appearent and gave her a few shots of water around her base to give her drink. Filled up the humidifier and turned it back on, will shoot for grow room conditions of around 80-82 degrees F. And a humidity of 60-65 percent for the next 10-14 days. ***Day 3*** She is looking good this morning but you’ll never know because there seems to be some sort of problem uploading pictures. Grow is good and warm 82 degrees F. Humidity was A little low had left it off all night and was at 46 this morning, will put her on a timer 1 hour on and one hour off. ***Day 4*** All is good this morning. Grow room temp at 82 F. Humidity 58. Filled humidifier. She seems to be loving the blue spectrum light and tropical atmosphere. Second set of true leaves can be seen already. Checked the ph and is good at 6.0 , will strive to keep it there. Watered around the base again with trigger sprayer until properly watered. ***Day 5*** All is good this morning. Soil had dried back so watered gently with the hand spout three inches in diameter from main stem and deep enough for eight inches of root growth. Blue spectrum working well, she responds well to it. ***Day 6*** All is good this morning. Watered her again this morning. Grow room is 82 F. And the humidity is about 57 percent. Filled humidifier. Hard to keep the humidity above 60 percent. Can not say enough about how impressed I am with the blue spectrum seedling light. Impressive growth for six days!

sanibelisl Day 7. Mulberry doing good. Watered again this morning with Rhizotonic. Grow room is 82 F. Humidity was a little low at 50 percent. Impressive growth for seven days from sprout, already formed second set of leaves. She is two inches tall and appears stout. Seedling lights from Feit are performing well. The 452 nm wavelength combined with the 100,000(k)cct color is providing the perfect light for seedlings. All they are getting is 24 hours of these lights. I will continue with this regiment for four to seven more days before switching over to full spectrum lights. ***Day 8*** All is good this morning. Temp 82 F. Humidity 58. No water this morning still wet enough from yesterday. ***Day 9*** All is well today. Temp 83F. Humidity 58. ***Day 10*** Big day!!! Day 10. Room temperature 83. Humidity 58. Seedling in vegetation stage Switched the lights from all blue spectrum to blue/white spectrum and will continue on this light for the next four days. DLI is currently in the 30 range and PPFD is currently around 400 with a distance of 20 inches. Will monitor for any changes good or bad. Watered today with aerated water. The little girl is doing better than expected. At just ten days old she is a stout 2.5 inches tall and 6 inches wide with two sets of true leaves and starting on the third set. Will keep her under the Feit lights a few more days before moving to the tent and under the NextLight. *noticed some leaf curl so raised the lights until I had a DLI of 21 and PPFD 325. Lights now at 22 inches. ***Day 11*** all is well this morning. Temp 81 F. Humidity 58. She is doing great now with 3 full sets of true leaves and branches appearing at the nodes. I couldn’t be happier for eleven days old. Will get the light meter and check intensity levels for the NextLight and get the tent ready for her. ***Day 12*** All is good. Temp 80. Humidity 55. Went ahead and switched the lights to all full spectrum as the nodes spacing was tight. Adjusted the lights to a height of 20 inches where I had PPFD readings at 325and DLI at 21. No water was needed. ***Day 13*** Al is good this morning. Temp 80. Humidity 55. Made a new gallon of water with Rhizotonic ph to 6.2. Will prepare the tent today for a move tomorrow.

sanibelisl Day 21, three weeks old today and she is running on full steam ahead. Room temp is 78 and the humidity is about 55, she seems to like it there. She stands a stout 7 inches tall with satellite branches that match creating a terrific natural canopy. She was watered this morning with plain ph adjusted water.
