6/23:
I floated a single Gelat.OG bean today. It's the only photoperiod variety in my Summer outdoor grow.
Once it sprouts I'll sprinkle it with great white and plant it in a rockwool cube. Once I see a good amount of roots sticking out I'll sprinkle the roots with mycotrex and plant it in a 5 gallon pot that's already prepared with startrex and silicium. I'm also gonna be using biotabs, orgatrex, bactrex, mycotrex, boom boom spray, PK booster compost tee, bud candy, and terpinator in this grow.
I've got a new outdoor faucet timer that I'll have run a soaker hose for 10 minutes at a time, several times per day through the hottest part of the Summer. (105f-110f), and she will be located in a fairly shady spot, so hopefully my Gelato doesn't completely "melt"😁
TUESDAY:
The seed sunk and cracked open but has yet to stick her tongue out at me...
For stealth purposes, simplicity in transfer to the grow site, and to give the seedling an advantage, I've decided to transfer the rockwool-cubed seedling from the dome to a 6" pots (1/2 gallon) that I've prepared with startrex and silicium flash. I'll grow the seedling under my 2000w blurple light for a couple of weeks before taking her outside. I should be able to carry her and the rest of the seedlings in a big box out to the site without injuring them. This will give me time to start sneaking the big pots out to the site. I'll pre-mix the startrex and silicium flash on-site and add the mycrotrex when I transplant her to the 5 gallon pot and give her a good douching with bactrex and orgatrex to get her started well.
My soil has been re-charging for several months with tons of good stuff added (earthworm castings, bat guano, azomite, biochar, bokashi, nectar for the godz one-shot and myco). I only have enough biotabs for 5 x 3-gallon pots, so I'm gonna use Osmocote Plus for this plant. It's 15-6-9, so a little higher in N than I like, but this stuff kicks ass on my flower beds and hanging baskets outside so I think it might be just fine. She'll at least get the orgatrex, bactrex, boom boom spray and pk booster compost tea, bud candy and terpinator, so no worries. I figure that I'll probably fix up the first batch of PK booster compost tea right away and douche her with it in their first week outdoors. Every little thing I can do to help her strengthen for the oncoming heat she'll experience...probably some extra kelp too...
FRIDAY 7/5:
The first one never happened, so I germed another one and it popped right up.😀
SUNDAY 7/7:
I planted the one that came up in a temporary pot with some mycotrex..grow baby grow!🙏
