Germination
23d ago
Garys_Mod_Green SO as a new grower I will be doing my best to document my experiences. Succesful germination using the towel method . Pots were Aquired at walmart and i drilled additional holes into the bottom to get better drainage. Water run through a Brita filter showing a 95PPM and PH of 8 which was lowered to 6.5 with some lemon juice. Seeds planted into Build a soil 3.0 blend. my temps are a bit high hoping to lower them with addition of a circulation fan Cloudray S9 to bump temps down just a bit and circulate the air better. Highly limited on space as you can see. Any and all advice is welcome.

Garys_Mod_Green okay bit of a stretch between updates but sapling stage went well and successfully repotted into the 5 gallons yesterday and I can't see any alarming signs of stress yet but as a new grower maybe there will be some that pop up and ya'll can hekp me identitify any issues. Water only with some light add ons of great white for root growth. They are starting to give off a slight weed smell which is lovely. Autopot system implemented aswell as humidifer and fan. humidity was a big problem here our resting humidity in my house is roughly 28% so getting to a stable 63% was definitely necessary. current DLI on my plants at day 21 is about 22 and hoping after a couple days of adjustment from the repot to slowly work the lights closer to get closer to 30. Water I am currently PH balancing down with lemon juice.
