MalumProhibitum Here we go :)
I normally prefer 1 seed / pot, but as the Purple Punch OG project with 2seeds in one pot turned out great and the fact I was uncertain if the MM grow would make it I dropped in 2x seeds.
Germinated after 3 days, half day behind the monster maker#1 & exactly same time as monster#2 👊😬👌 --Excellent!
As things are maturing in the grow-room, I have slowly started to de-construct the old grow, cut the plants down, break the soil apart and adding it all together in a massive 320Liter compost-bag.
In a few weeks there will be room in the grow room for them, but for now they have to settle with 24h/day 5W-LED, see how things turn out. If they become too thin and tall I'll have to move one 75W Cree CXB3590 2800K or a 50W Cree CXB3590 3500K out to support them, but that would impede the grow room, as I'd lose 4x LEDS as I only have 2x drivers for 8 LEDS. For now I'll just keep things as they are; having them parked under the 5W kitchen fan LED.
I thought mites was feasting on one of the SCS seedlings, turns out my little minions doesn't eat weed, they like mold and rotten plant-matter!
Turns out they are dust mites, and they are quite common, no matter how clean a house is they are always there, but explode in numbers under the right conditions such as high humidity..
I pinched of a small leaf the size of a thumb from one of the aztec plants, and squeezed out the juice over the seedlings & the mites and sprinkled the remains of the fresh aztec at the base of the seedling.
I decided to just leave the aztec juice on the plant and let it dry; working as a protective layer, too over-saturated in good shit for the mold to thrive.
After that I decided to not touch it any more, and forget about the grow for a week --as I felt I was into fcking shit up territory.. like a meth addict tweaking up shit non-stop, endless loop, eventually ruining it.
In hind sight I think things would have worked out fine even w/o aztec treatment, the seedling just needed to get it's head out of the soil and get some fresh air.
Week 1 done, they are a bit leggy but that's expected, given they have shared a 5W LED for 4-5 days. I kinda prefer a 10cm leggy seedling over a broad-leaf 2-3cm one, where the leaves have a tendency to touch the soil, get dirty and shieeet.
MalumProhibitum I have nothng much to say, going according to plan, though I'd love to see a bit more green and less yellow in the grow, but as nthing looks irreversible I just keep things as they are. I could increase nitrogen in their drinks, or cut back on light intensity; increasing light-hours, try what makes them look deeper green, but yeah.. they cooking.
All plants are going hard a.f. I think I'll let them VEG this week and the next, giving them a total of 3 weeks VEG+Germination week.
So.. 28 days after seeds arrived they should be ready for FLOWER phase :)
So far one of theese is ahead / best grower right now, being roughly 3-4 days ahead in terms of size compared to the monsters and it's sibling.
Gave them a final watering of HEAVY-VEG NPK 3.3:1:2 2liter TDS:869mg/l.

MalumProhibitum One of the SCS F1 still in the lead, the one that wasn't semi-rotten when it sprouted xD
The gimped one still growing and developing in 'normal pace', nothing out of the ordinary; keeping up with the monsters and roughly 4 days ahead of purple punch OG, so lost roughly 3 days during it's recovery.
The bigger of the two has an army of new growth to the point it's starting to take on a ball-shape inside the outer growth; like another plant inside the plant. Think I'll take few cuttings from it.
