Reeflove Breeder: Triangle Hemp
Medium: ProMix MPO (soilless)
Containers: Solo cups (direct sow)
Environment (Week 1):
• Temp: ~80°F
• RH: ~80–85% (AC Infinity dome → then 2×4 tent)
• Light: LED, moderate seedling intensity
• Dome vents: cracked
Emergence Timeline
• Pheno 2 (P2): Jan 14 @ 8:08 PM
• Pheno 1 (P1): Jan 15 @ 2:49 PM
• Pheno 3 (P3): Jan 15 @ ~6:00 PM
Week 1 Observations (Days 1–7/10)
All three phenotypes emerged cleanly with no helmet heads or deformation. Early growth was steady and uniform, with cotyledons opening fully and first true leaves forming on schedule.
Seedlings were initially kept under a propagation dome due to extremely low ambient room humidity (20–30% RH). Dome humidity held consistently at ~85%, which appeared to support rapid early leaf expansion and turgor.
After a room humidifier was added and ambient conditions stabilized, seedlings were moved into the 2×4 tent and the dome was removed. Tent RH held at ~80%, allowing continued development without visible stress.
Plant Structure
• Slight elongation present (expected due to dome + early light distance)
• Stems upright and stable
• Leaf color healthy green
• No visible nutrient burn or deficiency
• No signs of damping off or overwatering
Assessment
Week 1 is successful. These seedlings show strong early momentum compared to prior runs. Environmental control — particularly humidity — is markedly improved versus earlier grows and appears to be a key differentiator.

Reeflove Diesel Dessert – Week 2 Grow Diary (Days ~8–14 from Emergence)
Genetics: Diesel Dessert
Phenotypes: P1, P2, P3
Stage: Early Vegetative
Medium: Pro-Mix (seed start), later transplant to living soil bed
Lighting: LED, moderate intensity 300 PAR (seedling → early veg range)
Environment:
• Temp: ~80–85°F
• RH: ~75–85% early, gradually easing toward high 70s
• Airflow: Gentle, indirect
Growth Overview
Week two marked the transition from seedling to early vegetative growth. All three phenotypes successfully established true leaves and began stacking nodes.
Pheno 2 showed slightly stronger early vigor and leaf size, while Phenotypes 1 and 3 lagged slightly but remained healthy and upright.
Feeding & Watering
• Watering remained conservative, primarily small top-waterings to encourage root expansion.
• Initial nutrition relied on what was present in the medium.
• Toward the end of the week, preparations were made to introduce a proper vegetative feeding schedule (BuildASoil Week 2 veg inputs).
Observations / Issues
• Growth rate is much faster than my last grow. I think this is mostly attributed using pro-mix for seed starting on this run.
• Leaves remained generally healthy green; minor variation in vigor between phenotypes noted.
• Environmental conditions were stable, though humidity management required active adjustment.
Actions Taken
• Light intensity adjusted upward slightly to support vegetative momentum.
• Humidity gradually reduced from seedling-range toward veg-appropriate levels.
• Planning initiated for transplant into final containers / living soil bed to avoid root restriction.
Assessment
Week two was about survival, establishment, and root building, not explosive growth. While the plants were smaller than some comparative examples, they remained structurally sound, responsive, and healthy. No irreversible issues identified at this stage.
