Well, it's Friday and I don't normally start a run on a Friday, but I guess I just wanted to. Well, there's also the fact that I have my other Blue Dream run that I'm killing off in place of this little lady. If I screw this one up, I have 1 last seed.
Let's see, the last run was a major fail. I did everything wrong. Lol. Not enough light, too much light, not enough water in the Germination System, water too warm in the bucket, piss smell coming from bucket because of heat. Plant not growing properly not at an autoflowers pace. She should be standing straight up at about 4 inches now with at least 2 nodes. She has her two nodes, but she is also sickly. So goodbye.
So what's up for this run?
Well, the goal is to obviously not fail.
I'll have to increase the light intensity early on with this run. From what I learned in the last run, was that this strain likes a lot of light early on and then drops the need once she got in the tent. Or well the light was just too damned bright. I made this mistake the run before as well. Too much light. In my defense the seedling was looking for light no matter what setting I had it on.
Next is the nutrient solution for the seedling stage. I've read that of course don't feed nutrients to a seedling just starting out unless it's for seed starting. So in this case, I'm going to give a very mild solution after a good sized taproot comes out of the cube. Then I'll add the nutrient solution to the bottom of the tray. The solution is diluted to 1/8th percent of the normal dose. And I only used 4 different nutes. Advanced Nutrients, B-52, Voodoo Juice, Tarantula and Piranha. That's according to a feeding schedule I found specifically for Advanced Nutrients. It's very old, so it shouldn't harm anything. Oh and I also without thinking added a small dose of silica blast in the beginning. Luckily I was following the 1/8th dose and left it at that. I was gonna add hydrogaurd, but I'm going to wait for a normal autoflower sized dose.
Issue number 3. Temp control of the water. The heater in the tent tend s to constantly run in this stage. I don't know why, last run it didn't do that at all. It was a perfect setup. This run, hopefully it will be like that again. I really don't feel like messing with the environment the whole of the run.
Issue number 4. Lighting in the tent. I had it way too high. But by the time I figured it out, the damage was done. She was practically laying down.
So that's all for today.
