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 Hey, as you can see, there have been some developments. The little ones have recovered well from the incident with the lamp. The lamp is now hanging about 30 cm above them at 25% power. The issue with the app (the lamp does not turn off when it should and runs 24/7) has occurred twice more, but everything seems to be fine now. I turn on the fan 30 cm every now and then for stem training. I'm really happy and you can see that they are now really growing fast. I'll probably increase the lamp's power a little more in the next few days and then flowering should start soon. The Apple Fritter and Corkscrew didn't die after all, but as you can see, they've become little mutants, perhaps because of the accident with the light. Nevertheless, they've recovered a bit, and I've decided to let them live because they're as weird as I am and let them go their own way until the end! 16.01.2025 I ordered 1 liter of Calmag because I am now almost certain that there is a deficiency. Growth is still quite good, but there is room for improvement. I am not yet entirely sure how much light intensity is appropriate and when, and I do not want to damage it by using too much. Kushy out Praise the Tucan!

Kushycat The pre-flowering stage is visible, otherwise I have started with CalMag. It showed up much faster than expected, or rather, I had tried to regulate it elsewhere with silica and algae lime. Next week should be the first week of flowering indoors, and I will probably start with flowering fertilizer in the next few days and put the AKF with fan into operation. Meanwhile, it's like the tropics in the tent, and I can't have that during flowering. The NYC is curling its leaves a bit, but I don't think it's overfed; it's also causing me some concern.πŸ™πŸΌ The FatBanana and Northern Lights are doing really well!πŸ€ Surprisingly, the AppleFritter and Corkscrew with the light damage have done quite well in the last few days, and I'm taking them with me to the end of my first trip.🌞 They are now getting more light because I have increased the lamps to 30% power. I will now increase the power between 5-10 every 4-7 days so that there are thick flowers at the end.
