RicoGrow Here I am with my new grow 😁
I welcome my little titine, which is a Duban from Sensi Seeds.
So, I'm going to talk a bit about germination 😃😃👌
Many have issues at this stage; my method gives a success rate of 95% 😃👍.
We're not immune to a hollow seed, having stored them poorly, or over-watering them, which prevents germination 😳😔😔.
For storing your seeds: the fridge. Your packs in aluminum bags, placed in an airtight box 👌😜.
So, for my way of germinating my seeds, I use:
1 small plastic box, but very important, it must be airtight 👍
4 to 6 cotton makeup remover pads, but you can use paper towels, etc. 👌👍
For my part, I use Seedbooster from Plagron, 2 drops diluted in 25 cl of water filtered through a Brita pitcher, since it takes 7 drops for 1 liter 😉😁.
I moisten my pads by dipping them in my solution, but when I take them out, I wring them out properly, so they are just a little damp 👌👍.
If it's too humid or too wet, it will prevent germination 😣😫😤.
I place my 3 pads in my airtight box, then my seeds which I cover with my remaining 3 pads. I apply a slight pressure on the whole thing to compress it all together. 👌 I close the box with its lid 👌👍.
In summer in a room at 25°c
In other seasons, I use a mini heated greenhouse. Generally, 24 hours later, they may have germinated 😃😃👌👍.
Once well germinated, I mean germinated, with the sprout at least 7-8 mm minimum, I place my seed in its substrate in small pots, taking great care, because be careful, the sprout can stick to the pads and can sneak into the pad, hence the importance of compressing everything well during setup.😟😮😮
So be careful if you use makeup remover pads 😦😯😓😓.
Then, using a syringe, I water very gently to properly moisten my substrate and after that, I place my pots in my mini heated greenhouse where I let them rise a bit. Once they reach a height of 3-4 cm, I set them up in my little Spider Farmer tent under the LED lamp SF 300 👌👍🙏🙏👍🙏💪💪👋👋👋.
I wish you all a good week and a good cannabis culture 😍😍😜😜🙏🙏👍👍👋👋👋👋👋👋

RicoGrow Hello everyone 👊👋
I hope you’re doing well, as well as your gardens 🙏👌👊👍
Welcome to the new subscribers 🙏🙏👊👋
* This week, I continued my growth on an 18/24 hour cycle in my little Spider Farmer tent under the LED lamp SF300, 33 W; 1 fan on speed 1
* I’m using Vita Start from Plagron with a dosage of 1 ml per liter of water and I’m using BioBizz Bio-Down to bring my pH down to 6.2 with water filtered through a Brita pitcher 👍👍
* I water them using a syringe which prevents me from splashing solution on the lower leaves and burning them; I do a watering of 30 ml per plant.
* I’ll continue their growth this week under the same conditions 😁👌👌💪👊👍
I wish you all a great week and happy cannabis growing 👌👌🙏🙏💪💪👋👋
*Little incident: I had uploaded photos of another plant. When I realized it, it was too late, as I had gotten rid of the good photos of the Durban. That explains the growth progress between the 1st week and the 2nd week. Sorry. 😟😟😳😖🏆*

* I continued with Vita Start from Plagron at a dosage of 1 ml per 1 liter of water.
* I lowered my pH to 6.2 with Biobizz Bio Down using filtered water from a Brita pitcher, and I water with 50 ml per pot using a syringe to avoid splashing on my leaves. 👌👍
**I water every 24 hours based on the climate conditions in my Spider Farmer tent.
* I added 1/4 teaspoon of dolomite lime to boost calcium and magnesium.
* I prepared and cleaned my big Spider Farmer tent which is ready to receive my 4 plants. 👌👍💪👍
* Today, I'm going to do my repotting, set them up inside, and prepare my soil, but you'll see that next week, as those are the next adventures. 😐😶👍👍😂😂
I wish you all a great week. 👌🙏🙏👍
