StickyDiary 16.11.2025 – Germination Started
* Seeds placed into Eazy Plugs at 3 mm depth, covered lightly with plug material.
* Germinator interior sprayed with water; venting holes closed.
* Lights off.
* Both plugs labeled with stickers.
* Used dechlorinated tap water, pH 5.8.
20.11.2025 – Seedlings Emergence
* BBM emerged, already lost its shell, approx. 2 cm tall, but has only one cotyledon (second pheno showing this trait).
* GJ emerged but still has seed shell attached.
**GJ = waiting one more day to start counting.
* Light turned on at 150 PPFD.
* Light schedule changed from 24/0 → 18/6.
21.11.2025 – Transplanting Day
* Both seedlings fully emerged → transplanted into solo cups.
* Solo cups filled with coco + perlite (60/40).
* Initial fertigation with:Canna Coco A & B
** Rhyzotonic
** CalMag
** Resulting EC: 1.5, pH 5.8
* Environment: VPD 0.7, temps 21–26°C.
22.11.2025 – Watering + Light Adjustment
* Watered to runoff with the same nutrient mix (EC 1.5, pH 5.9).
* Reconfigured Aray 4 connector layout to make the light more compact in the tent.* Light lowered to achieve ~250 PPFD, verified with Photone + diffusor.
23.11.2025 – Dryback + EC Meter Issue
* Coco still wet from yesterday → will wait until tomorrow to water.
* New Bluelab EC meter arriving tomorrow.
* Suspecting Adwa meter is inaccurate (never maintained, several years old).
* Read up on EC meter maintenance → likely needs replacement.
24.11.2025 - Watering
* Watered with as little as 75ml and went straight to run-off.
* Holding of with watering for now on until visually dry.
26.11.2025 - Watering
* Watered again until run-off with 1.4EC.
* They look like they have a slight Cal and Mag deficiency.
* Hopefully with the watering they should be good again.
* The roots are already sticking out the solo cup on the GJ.
* Will wait nonetheless until both of them have three nodes before transplanting.
28.11.2025 - Watering
* Watered with 1.5 EC, final update of week 1.

StickyDiary 30.11.2025 - Watering with 1.5EC. Both looking alright.
01.12.2025 - Coco is still quite wet, so will not water today.
02.12.2025 - Watered with 1.5EC, both looking alright. Final watering before transplanting in two days.
03.12.2025 - Roots are poking out the solo cups. Tomorrow I will transplant them into their final containers. Next time I think need to transplant them earlier. Probably should have done it on day 10.
04.12.2025 - Transplanted them both, both healthy white roots and not root bound at all. Feed with 1.5EC, still at 300ppfd. I will give them three days to recover and then up the light.
05.12.2025 - I gave them a light watering, not until runoff, 500ml per pot. I increased the light to 60% and hang the light at 50cm for about 450ppfd. If it's too much, we will learn. This is the end of week 2.

StickyDiary 06.12.2025 - Day 15
Start of week three.
Both looking happy in their new homes.
Today I gave them a very heavy watering of about 2l each.
I might have overdone it, I don't know, live and learn.
07.12.2025 - Day 16
I definitely overwatered them, for sure the BBM.
Last night leaves of the BBM were kind of droopy before bed.
This morning all perked up and good.
No watering for today.
08.12.2025 - day 17
Still kind of feel moist to the touch.will give them another day without.
09.12.2025 - day 18
Just a light watering of 500ml.
BBM still quite small. Hopefully she catches up soon enough.
10.12.2025 - day 19
Another watering of about 750ml each.
Grape Juice has almost 6 nodes. BBM has 4 nodes.
Both have very tight inter-nodal spacing. Next run I will try weighing the pots while watering to keep better track of when to water exactly.
11.12.2025 - day 20
I watered with 500ml, but I will lay off the watering for two days until it's almost dry.
I have the feeling that the BBM is going very slow.
Not sure it's maybe because of my over-watering, or it's genetics.
12.12.2025 - day 21
I did an initial topping and stripping of all nodes except node 3.
I watered also 500ml each.
End of week 3

StickyDiary 13.12.2025 day 22 - skip watering for today as they are a little moist still. Let's see if it was the right choice.
