Reeflove 🌱 Grow Diary – Week 1 (Seedling / Establishment)
Strain: Fast Buds 1:1
Grow Type: Living Organic Soil (LOS)
Container: Large soil bed / tray
Light Schedule: 24/0 (seedling phase)
Planted: Tuesday, December 16, 2025 @ 8:00 PM (sprouted seeds into soil)
⸻
Week 1 Summary
Week one focused on establishment and recovery. Seeds were germinated using the paper towel method, then planted into living soil. Both seedlings emerged successfully, though they experienced a few common early-seedling challenges including seed membrane retention (“helmet head”), uneven emergence timing, and very dry soil conditions early on.
One plant required manual removal of the membrane, and the other leaned briefly before being gently corrected and supported by firmer soil contact. No nutrients were used. Watering was kept light and intentional to re-establish moisture without saturating the root zone.
Despite a slow visual pace, both plants are green, upright, and showing early true leaf development.
⸻
Environment (AC Infinity)
• Temperature: ~77°F
• Humidity: ~70–71%
• Airflow: Gentle, continuous
• Domes:
• Plant #2 dome removed
• Plant #1 dome still on (transitioning off slowly)
⸻
🌱 Medium & Setup
• Living organic soil bed
• Large soil volume with mulch
• Direct-seeded into soil
⸻
💧 Watering
• Early soil was extremely dry; moisture was reintroduced gradually
• Finger test confirmed dryness through profile
• Dec 25 @ 12:37 PM: 2 oz water per plant
• Watering kept light and localized to avoid overwatering
⸻
Feeding
• None (seedling stage)
⸻
👀 Observations
• Plant #1:
• Cotyledons open
• True leaves forming
• Recovered after membrane removal
• Plant #2:
• Cotyledons open
• True leaves visible
• Brief early lean corrected; stem firming up
Both plants remain green with intact growth tips and no signs of damping-off.
⸻
Actions Taken
• Gradual dome removal for Plant #2
• Manual membrane removal for Plant #1
• Light corrective watering
• Gentle soil firming around stem when needed

⸻
Watering & Feeding
• Watering remained light and intentional to avoid overwatering.
• ~125 mL per plant
• Included Rootwise Microbe Complete + Rootwise Bio-Phos/Elixir
• Soil allowed to dry between waterings; finger test used rather than schedule-based watering.
⸻
Growth & Development Observations
• Both plants established their first and second sets of true leaves.
• Noticeable increase in leaf mass and new growth observed overnight toward the end of Week 2.
• Stems upright and stable; earlier leaning resolved.
• Plant #2 slightly ahead in leaf size and vigor.
• Minor cosmetic irregularities noted:
• Slight leaf tip yellowing on Plant #2
• Mild leaf shape irregularities (likely early growth
⸻
Assessment
• Overall health: Good
• Root establishment phase appears successful.
• No signs of damping off, severe deficiency, or overwatering.
• Plants responding positively to microbes and light increase.
