Kushycat Single washcloths in a bag with water in a small greenhouse with a heating mat. I'll leave them to soak at 23 degrees until tomorrow and then put them in small 0.2 liter pots with potting soil. The plan is to let them root in there for a week and then put them in the final 12.9-liter Airpot pots. Yes, there are people who advise against transplanting seedlings and recommend planting them directly into the final container. But I'll take my chances.πŸ™πŸΌ

Kushycat The timing was a little optimistic for sowing. The seeds germinated after 24 hours and after another 24 hours, four of the six had poked their little heads out of the soil. I was still in the pre-Christmas rush and only had a short time, and they probably stood in the dark for a few hours too long. So far, I've had the lamp on at 20% and simply left it running 24/7. Tomorrow, I urgently need to take care of the Tuya app, which unfortunately has not been able to connect to the hortiONE lamp so far. The NYC Auto has unfortunately fallen over a bit and the stem looks slightly shriveled. Perhaps it was damaged by too much ventilation. I propped it up a bit and filled it with soil to protect the stem. I hope this hasn't stressed it too much. The Medical Mass CBD is scratching at the top layer of soil and should see the light of day tomorrow. It makes me happy to look into the tent and see the little ones! Today, they got some Clonex Pro Start in their first watering and were watered very lightly and sparingly. 12/29/2025 Accident in paradise... unfortunately, the Medical Mass died. I wanted to see why it wasn't sticking its head out of the soil, and in doing so, the seedling broke. It also looks a little strange. I put a new seed of the same variety in water. I will probably remove the Medical Mass from here and create a separate report if it germinates and grows well.πŸ™πŸΌ The lamp has been running 20 hours a day since yesterday. I was able to fix the problem with the app and connect it to the Bluetooth button.

Kushycat So, my dear plant lovers, now it gets complicated... The corkscrew seems to have been stunted in its growth even before the lamp incident. The fact that the lamp ran 24/7 for one day due to an incorrect setting was not a big deal. However, the next day, the lamp was at 100% for about 6 hours, and I think the plants all suffered damage as a result. I didn't repot the Corkscrew into an airpot as planned, but into a 2-liter fabric pot. I don't think it's developing well enough to yield much, and space in the tent is limited. Instead of the Corkscrew, I'm going to put an Orion F1 in the free airpot, but that will be a separate report. I repotted the Northern Lights, Banana, and NYC Sour in 11.9-liter air pots. Oh, I almost forgot the apple fritters. They don't look good either. Maybe they're burnt. I'll decide tomorrow or the day after whether to replace them too. I forgot to take pictures of them. I'll send them later. The apple fritter doesn't look good, so I planted it in a small pot. I think it's burnt, so I'll remove it from the report along with the corkscrew. Replacements are already on their way. See separate reports. All plants were treated with TA Silica spray yesterday during the dark phase, which is why there are gray spots on the leaves. When repotting, I noticed that I was probably too careful with the water this time, as only the upper third was really moist. If the plants don't really grow or regenerate within a few days, I will probably replace all the damaged ones. Thank you for your attention and your time. I am always grateful for tips and advice! πŸ€πŸ™πŸΌπŸ€

@Kushycat, they will give you all the love you put into them back at their end. I truly believe that . It’s like our life : do good each day and people see you and will give you their positive vibes back .

Hopefully your plants recover from the lighting πŸ™ It’s hard to decide what the intensity of the lighting should be and the distance to the plant. New parameters that weren’t important while growing outside. I hope you have a steep learning curve for this indoor grow, just like me πŸ˜‰πŸ˜…

@India_Calcoen, Considering that I stressed them out yesterday by repotting them, they actually look really good today. Only the AppleFritter is struggling a bit, as I feared. It won't be moving into its big new home and will be replaced with a new AppleFritter that is already sitting in warm water. I don't want to do things by halves xD To be honest, I actually want this learning curve. I hardly did any research beforehand, just a little with the lamp app. I've known the basics for a long time and I want to find out for myself how it works best and try things out, even if I fail in the process. In the end, reaping what has come out of the process will be great, and I won't be satisfied with mini buds and small yields because I want to supply myself with top shelf.🀭 I think yours looks really good except for the poor little flower that has let its ears droop. I'm sure you'll end up with top-notch weed.πŸ™πŸΌπŸ€

@Kushycat, I hope you enjoy your steep learning curve just as much as I enjoy mine. It’s wonderful to see your plants growing nice and warm when it’s snowing outside. β˜ƒοΈβ„οΈ You are right by replacing plants that are not performing. It costs more time to recover a sick plant, than to sow new one. 🌱 I don’t regret throwing my Hindu Kush out, the new seed grows fast and good. Glad to see some of your seedlings are growing fine. Hopefully they like their new, bigger home! 😁

@India_Calcoen, Yes, that's right, it warms the heart! I think they coped quite well with the move, and today I noticed some growth again. The banana plant in particular is doing well, which makes me really happy. πŸ™πŸΌ
