Acapulco Gold SeedSupreme Indoor Summer

MindFlowers68 Had some trouble with germinating this one. it was the first to show tap root overnight after soaking 12 hours but was 3rd to pop form this round. it them sat there for a week looking like it had dampening off, but i let it go a few more days. I then decided it was time to stat a new seed because i had another one not germinated and the day after soaking and going to put it in the pot the old one decided to finally sprout open and started growing. I decided to place the second one in the same pot just in case it took a turn for the worse and germinated much faster in the new tent in 3 days, doing much better. I have a very exciting next run planned for my indoor photoperiods. Two weeks prior i inculcated some new bio-char with boogie brew tea, kelp, sea minerals and liquid fish. Then got some bulk materials together to make a new mix for 5 gallon starter pots. I made a separate diary with the mix i did because i didn't have enough slots for photos to include all of it here. Last few run had used lava rocks in the 5 gallons but i find the hard to get to a small and consistent and they make too many air pockets the eventually sag and making extra fabric pot unutilized. This time around I added rice hulls to the mix and got a coarser vermiculite which adds to the texture of the soil. The worm castings included worm eggs so some of them should hatch but if not I have worms on the way i will add a few to each pot. I made my hot mix and let it sit for a week and when I sowed the seeds after soaking overnight 12 hours. I made a separate inert starter mix for the top few inches of soil along with a small dished out area in center for taproot to get established in. I also mounted the top of the pot with the starter mix about 2 inches so i can get a little extra room between soil level and my fist nodes. I wanted to utilize every bit of space in the pots so the roots have as much room as possible because they may not be transplanted for 8 weeks. I let the intensity of light be very little starting off to get them to stretch just slightly too before giving them more intense light few day later. These seedling have already had quite the journey in their first few weeks of life. I had them started in the bottom of my flower tents when they were still on 18 hour light schedule, but they needed to be kicked out. The mushroom 3x3 tent was still setup and added my ac infiity light and got them some more light a few days after sowing. I didn't have chance to set up ducting to outside so it was heating up my lung room too much so I had to clear area on other side of house for a new veg tent. I originally ordered a hydropolis oversized 5x5 that would have been sweet but they never shipped it to me. So then I got creative and figured out how to convert my old 4x8 tent into a 4x6 tent. It has a 7 foot tall 2x4 rack for clones/seedlings and an oversized 4x4 area to tart my new photoperiods. I did have to barrow the 2 foot poles from my cool grows 2x3 tent I'm not using to make it happen a little easier with no permanent modifications. i just used electrical tape to shim the poles up to fit snug into the 4x8 poles.
