CalicoCatMom I originally started a seed with the paper towel method, but it was unsuccessful. Restarted with a peat pellet and had more success. The seedling was placed in the AC Infinity grow tent to maintain humidity and consistent VPD.

CalicoCatMom Not a lot to report. I'm not using nutrients yet, and trying to maintain a VPD of 0.4-0.8. The plat appears healthy and liking the conditions in the tent. I will cut the eco pot once the roots are more established. I didn't want to destroy the pot too soon, but I also don't want it to get root bound. I know in theory that the roots should push though the pot, but I've seen instances where roots get bound up and the plant suffers. I will monitor it to ensure a good root system before transplanting into it's forever home. For now, it's half way into the moist soil.

CalicoCatMom I cut the sides of the peat pot to minimize any stress that could transpire as the plant grows into the new media. I planted it a little deeper and saturated the surrounding substrate. The plant gained an inch in height and appears to be doing quite well. I'm not using supplements as they're mixed into the build-a-soil media.

CalicoCatMom I cannot believe how good this plant looks. I have largely left this plant in the tent and ignored it. I water about once a week and set the VPD to 0.8. It's doing so well :)

CalicoCatMom I couldn't believe it, 3" in a week. I know it's probably normal, but I couldn't believe the change week over week. I also topped the plant, counted five nodes and plucked off the top. I also updated the VPD to 0.9 and light to 366 PPFD (light).
