Peach Lassi x Mary Jane 2026

xTaps ## Week 1: Germination & DWC Setup Preparations 🍑🌱 Welcome to the official start of my Peach Lassi diary! Today, June 16th, marks Day 1 of this exciting hydroponic journey. Germination Method: Yesterday, I officially initiated the germination process using the classic paper towel method. The seed was placed between two damp cotton pads with exactly 10ml of tap water inside the Kannabia Sproutly disc. I prefer this controlled environment to monitor the root development right from the start. The Future Setup & Nutrient Lineup: Once the taproot emerges and the seedling is stable, she will be transferred into her final home: a Deep Water Culture (DWC) hydro reservoir. For this run, I am shifting to a high-performance nutrient regimen to maximize the terpene profile and yield of the Peach Lassi: Base Nutrients: Plant Mechanics Mini Run - Full Spec Additives & Boosters: Canna Rhizotonic (for early root explosion), Canna Boost, Plagron Power Buds, and Plagron Green Sensation (for the heavy flowering phase). Current Observation: The Sproutly is sealed, maintaining perfect humidity. Now, we wait for nature to do its magic. Stay tuned for the first green leaves! Current Development The Peach Lassi is showing incredible vitality! Within a very short time, the shell cracked open and pushed out a beautiful, vigorous taproot (radicle). The root is bursting with energy and greedily reaching for moisture. The "Mediumless Road Map" for the Coming Days Since this run is designed to be completely free of traditional growth media (like clay pebbles or rockwool), the little lady stays exactly where she is for now. Moving her too early would only damage the microscopic root hairs currently forming. As soon as the seed head begins to straighten up and the first green of the cotyledons becomes visible, Phase 2 kicks off: Moving into the Neoprene Collar: Only when the lady has grown a stable, approx. 3–5 cm stem and fully unfolded her cotyledons will she be tucked naked and safely into the neoprene collar. The hunt is officially on. Next stop: The first green!🌱 Current Development & Transition A textbook update! Overnight, the seedling has developed incredibly fast. The seed coat had already loosened up so much that it could be removed by hand very easily and without any damage. This completely eliminates the risk of a "stuck helmet". Top view: The remaining seedling sits perfectly centered and completely unharmed in the middle of the neoprene collar. The slot acts as an ideal guide without crushing the delicate head or the yellow-greenish stem area. Root check from below: The vigorous, white taproot is already clearly sticking out of the bottom slots of the net pot. It hangs right in the splash zone of the popping bubbles from the airstone. Next Steps (Next 48 Hours) The Peach Lassi is now officially in the system. For maximum chances of success, the following protocol is now in place: Humidity Dome: A transparent dome is placed over the net pot to protect the exposed cotyledons from drying out. Light On: The Cultivation-LED is turned on to give the seedling the biological cue to straighten up and turn green. The cleanest start imaginable for a pure hydroponic project! Water Parameters & Dosage The little lady has moved into her new home, a DWC Cloner, and the first tailored liquid base has been mixed exactly to plan. Since the Peach Lassi does not require any external primary nutrients at this stage and feeds from its own internal reserves, the base fertilizer (Plant Mechanics) stays in the cupboard for now. The focus is entirely on explosive root development. Water Volume: 1.3 Liters tap water Base EC: 0.31 (Excellent, clean starting point) Additive: 4 ml Canna Rhizotonic (approx. 3 ml/L) 🎯 Strategy & Status With 3 ml/L of Rhizotonic, the newly exposed taproot receives a powerful boost of plant-based stimulants and vitamins to immediately trigger vigorous lateral root and root-hair growth. The pH value is intentionally not adjusted during this very initial phase. Since the seedling does not need to uptake any nutrient salts yet, the exact pH level is secondary for the pure absorption of water and stimulants over the first 24–48 hours. Adjustment down to the optimal hydro range (5.5 – 5.8) will take place as soon as the cotyledons open up and the light jumpstarts photosynthesis. The air pump is humming, the taproot is sitting in the splash zone.
