Germination

Greenhouse_Project HAPPY NEW YEAR 🍀🍀 This week marks the exciting beginning of the grow with Fast Buds genetics. To ensure strong and even germination, the seeds were first soaked for 24 hours in distilled water inside a Cannakan, placed on a heat mat set to 26 °C. This gentle warmth helps activate the embryo and softens the seed shell, encouraging it to crack open. By the end of the soak, most of the seeds showed slight openings in their shells, a clear sign that they were ready for the next stage. After soaking, the excess water was carefully removed to create a slightly moist—but not flooded—environment. This step encourages the taproot to search downward for moisture, promoting stronger root development right from the start. Meanwhile, Rockwool cubes were prepped as the germination medium. They were thoroughly rinsed and balanced with pH-adjusted water (5.5) to create the ideal root zone for early growth. No nutrients were added at this point, since young seedlings rely on their internal nutrient reserves during the first few days. The cubes were then placed inside the germination box, where humidity levels (Huminandy) were kept consistently high, ensuring the seed shells don’t dry out during this delicate stage. The combination of high humidity, gentle warmth, and oxygen-rich conditions supports quick emergence of the taproots. Overall, the seeds responded perfectly to this method — tiny cracks in the shells and early root activity indicate a promising start. The next step will be monitoring for the first visible sprouts and ensuring the Rockwool remains evenly moist without being soaked. 🌱✨

Greenhouse_Project After nearly a full week of healthy root growth in the Rockwool cube, it was time for the most important transition — the transplant into the final pot. Since this is an autoflowering strain, the timing of this move is critical; autoflowers don’t like multiple transplants, so starting them in their permanent home early ensures smooth growth and no stress during flowering. For this run, a 5-liter fabric pot was chosen. Fabric pots are ideal for autos because they allow excellent air exchange around the root zone, preventing overwatering and encouraging dense, oxygen-rich root growth. The medium is Plagron Light Mix, a lightly fertilized soil that offers perfect control for organic amendments. Before transplanting, the soil was mixed and enriched with the BioTabs organic system to provide slow-release nutrition throughout the entire cycle: 50g Silicium Flash – to boost structural strength and increase resistance against heat and pests. 15g Startrex – to activate soil life and improve microbial balance. 1 BioTab – the slow-release nutrient core, ensuring consistent feeding for weeks. Once everything was prepared, the seedling was carefully placed into the center, making sure the Rockwool stayed just below the soil surface to avoid drying out. The first watering was done with 1g Bactrex, a microbial booster that introduces beneficial bacteria to the root zone, helping the plant adapt quickly to the new medium and improving nutrient uptake. By the end of this week, the young plant stood proudly at 6.5 cm tall, showing healthy green coloration and firm stems — a sign that the transplant was successful. The root system is expected to spread rapidly now, setting the foundation for a strong flowering phase ahead.
