Mephisto - Major Toke

burnout OK, three of the five seeds have sprouted, going to make June 16th the start day, hopefully the other two make it eventually. I have been lightly misting, switched to 10 ml water, will do that every two days.

burnout Day 7. Seeing yellowing on the new plants, not a lot of upward growth over the last week. The other two seeds did finally sprout, they are still rather small. Increased the light intensity to 300 ppfd, about 50% on the light. I think the yellowing is from the soil being way too hot for the seedlings. Also seeing tiny holes in the leaves, inspected all over with a magnifying lens, not seeing any insects. There are a ton of spiders in that area that take care of bad insects, so doubt those pinholes are from bugs munching the leaves. If these are stunted, that's my fault for not starting with a less nutrient rich soil. We will see how this goes, hoping the root system is healthy under the soil and growth starts taking off over the next week. Watered the three larger sprouts with 250 ml water a few days ago. Going to wait five days before doing that again. The two slower and smaller sprouts are getting 20 ml every couple days.

burnout Day 14. The two slow seeds sprouted but stopped growing, I will be pulling those out. The two stragglers may not have like the higher light intensity or the hot soil, either way they're done. New growth on the three good plants looks good, a little slow for my liking, hoping they start taking off soon. Will be adding four liters of water to each reservoir mid week or at the start of next week.

burnout Day 21. Plants are going on their 4th node. Watered each box with 1 liter water with Epsom salt and a recharge last week on day 16. Filled reservoirs with 4 liters of water on day 19. Plants looking healthy but still lagging on growth.

burnout Day 28. Started seeing stigmas on the plant on the left on day 24, now seeing flowering on the plant on the right and just starting on the plant in the middle. The middle plant sprouted first, the other two came up a few days later. Hoping to see some good stretch soon! Took about three days for the reservoirs to go dry last week. Added top dress along with rock phosphate and top watered each box with one gallon of water including the ferment, recharge, and build a bloom. Added another gallon of water to reservoirs today.

burnout Day 35. Good growth and they're looking healthy over the past week. Day 32 top watered with 4 liters along with recharge, ferment and buildabloom, letting the planters dry back for a few days as they seem pretty saturated, will fill reservoirs with 6 liters of plain water this evening. Took a few days to empty reservoirs of 4 liters last week, they aren't drinking a lot yet.
