Redweasel Placed 4 seeds in Root Riot cubes that were soaked in distilled water mixed with a pinch each of horticultural coconut water powder, horticultural aloe powder & real growers recharge. These were placed in an AC Infinity XL Clone Dome with the light set on the lowest setting from 7am to 1am. Dome was misted with distilled water & replaced. A vivosun heat mat was placed under the unit with the probe located inside a root riot cube located inside the dome. Heat Mat temp set to 78°F.
I use Kansas City Missouri tap water that is running through 6 floors of 60+ year old piping. Kansas City tap water alone tests awful.
I ran 50 gallons through a RO filter system with a chloramine filter add on to fill my reservoir.
Reservoir has the addition of a submersible fountain pump set by mechanical timer to run 15min per hour.

Redweasel All four seeds germinated.
Dusted the Root Riot cubes with Extreme Gardening Mykos & Azoz. Transfered cubes to clear 16oz solo cups containing Build a Soil Heady Start & placed those in solid color solo cups, both cups have holes for drainage.
Watered in with plain distilled water mixed with a pinch each of Recharge, aloe, & coconut water powder.
The cups were then placed in the clone dome under 20 DLI & 78°F on the heat mat. Heat mat probe placed in a solo cup containing the same substrate & moisture level as the seedling cups.
Remaining watering mix added to the clone tray for subirrigation.

Redweasel Selected the two seedlings that were closest in vigor & structure. No contact direct transplant into 7 gallon grassroots lined living soil containers after dusting root balls with Mycos & Azos.
Removed straw mulch to soak in plain water. Raked in a top dress of 1/2 cup worm castings, 1/4 cup craft blend & 2 tbsp Kiss My Frass, & sprinkled in a small amount of Kashi Gold in each container.
Watered in with 1/2 gallon 6.5ph 11ppm reservoir water, focusing on the perimeter, split between the two containers. Wetted mulch replaced with the chopped remains of the two unselected plants mixed in.

Not much to do this morning except to record data & water. Next week we will begin the real fun stuff.
We definitely have two distinct expressions, which is exciting. Cover crop emerging.
Plants received their first full watering since transplant.
Hand watered the perimeter of each container with a full 1/2 gallon of plain 6.5ph 11ppm plain water, mixed with 1/2 tsp each of Recharge, aloe powder & coconut water powder.
Tray2Grow will be activated Sunday morning, & that will begin the cycle of Sunday through Wednesday evening Tray2Grow irrigation, with Wednesday evening & Saturday morning hand watering. Tray2Grow will deactivate Wednesday evening to Sunday morning.
