Stoney_Stark Day 1 — Germination & Planting
Strain: Sticky Mango Auto
Breeder: Tastebudz Genetics
Lifecycle: 8–10 weeks (seed → harvest)
Date: 1/10
Plants: 2
Grower: Stoney Stark / Little Lilly Farms
⸻
Medium & Containers
• Medium: Scientetics Coco
• Pots: 2-gallon fabric
• Seeds planted directly into final containers to avoid transplant stress (autoflower).
⸻
Lighting
• Fixture: Vivosun AeroLight Wing AW200SE (200W)
• Stage: Pre-emergence / Seedling
• Light intensity kept low to prevent early stretch and root stress (PPFD intentionally minimal at this stage).
⸻
Initial Watering / Inoculation
Each pot was evenly moistened with ¼ gallon of solution.
• pH: 5.8
Additives (per gallon, light inoculation)
• 5 ml Ruby Fulvic
Improves nutrient chelation and uptake, helping establish early root efficiency in coco.
• 4 ml Fish Sh!t
Introduces beneficial microbes that assist with nutrient cycling and root-zone health.
• 4 ml Pure Zym
Enzymes break down dead root matter and organic residues, keeping the coco clean and oxygenated.
• ½ tsp Recharge
Mycorrhizae and beneficial bacteria to jump-start microbial life and root colonization.
⸻
Notes
• Medium was lightly sprayed rather than fully saturated to maintain oxygen availability around the seed zone.
• No base nutrients used at this stage; coco contains sufficient moisture for germination, and additives focus on biological activity rather than feeding.
• Environment will be monitored closely for emergence before increasing light intensity or irrigation volume.
