Arturok_320 Iād like to start by saying that this is my second time growing. I occasionally grow other types of plantsāornamental, indoor, some flowers, clovers, and a few shrubs. About a year ago, I started studying all of this, reading and watching a lot of material. First, I studied the rhizosphere and beneficial bacteria for composting. I made my own homemade compost using some KNF (Korean Natural Farming) inputs and certain bacteria sourced from China, such as Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus megaterium. I also used yeast and forest soil lightly fermented with LAB (Lactic Acid Bacteria), which I made myself, along with molasses, eggshells, coffee grounds, and vegetable scraps.
āI chose Plagron Light Mix because I wanted to maintain the highest level of control possible. During the first week, I kept the plant under a bottle at night so it wouldn't suffer from the lack of ambient humidity, which was at 0%, accompanied by a cold towel to drop the temperature. After the first week, it was placed under a shade cloth at 28Ā°C without ventilation. Iāve applied some nighttime foliar sprays with Ecklonia maxima, aloe vera, or seaweed extract (NPK 2-7-18); the potassium at this stage helps keep the stomata open throughout the night. I also mounded soil around the stem (aporque) and gave it a touch of Ecklonia maxima to signal the plant to rapidly develop roots in the newly buried section of the stem.
āI watered the pot with 200 ml for the first four days, gradually increasing until reaching the 500 ml I gave it today. Currently, the plant is 8 cm tall and appears to show 4 nodes, though I'm not entirely sure how to identify them correctly. I will likely begin LST (Low Stress Training) tomorrow.
I am combining natural sunlight with supplemental bulb lighting. I use four 13W 6500K bulbs from 7:00 AM until approximately 12:00 PM, providing 40k lux. From then until 6:00 PM, the plant receives natural sunlight under a shade cloth at 60k lux. Finally, I continue with the same bulb setup until 1:00 AM
I have been using mycorrhizae regularly since day one, and Trichoderma since day seven. When I performed the mounding (aporque), I applied Trichoderma directly to the stem to protect it from pathogens and fungi.
I call this "test" coz I'm going to use some things like brassinolide, I use it before on another plants, this is like fuel, I have an special amino acid powder (Aspartic acid, Cystine, alanine, glutamic acid, glycine, Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, lysine, methionine, Phenylalanine, proline, serine, Threonine, tyrosine, Valine, arginine, Tryptophan. Total amino acids 25-30%, sulfur 15-18%, copper 0.6%, iron 3.8%, zinc 2.5%, manganese 1.1%, boron 1.1%, magnesium 1.6%, molybdenum cobalt selenium 0.03%. pH value (1% aqueous solution): 5-5.
