Plot of Land/Banana Purple Punch

kingsymba Week 2 — October 19, 2026 (Day 10) Four Banana Purple Punch autoflowers in Grodan rockwool, manually watered. Two seedlings visible in current photographs. Green foliage and developing true leaves observed. Stems appear elongated, with reddish-purple coloration on the foreground seedling. Root emergence not yet confirmed. 24-hour environment: Average temperature 78.1°F, average RH 70%, average VPD 1.0 kPa. Temperature range 76.3–79.5°F; RH range 64–77%; VPD range 0.7–1.2 kPa. Historical water measurements: Monroe tap-water EC 0.420 mS/cm; stabilized plain-water pH 8.56. Historical lighting: FloraFlex 700W, 30%, 67-inch distance, 12.5 kLux.

kingsymba Today, all four seedlings were positioned in their 4-inch Grodan rockwool blocks on top of 8-inch Big Mama blocks. This raised the plant canopy approximately 8 inches closer to the grow light. Plants appear healthy, with green foliage, upright stems, and visible new growth. Estimated plant height is 3–3.5 inches above the original 4-inch blocks. No obvious discoloration or leaf damage observed. Prepared fresh nutrient solution using tap water, Jack’s 3-2-1 nutrients, and supplements. Diluted the solution with 12 fluid ounces of additional water and adjusted pH using General Hydroponics pH Down. Final recorded nutrient measurements: * pH: 5.86 * EC: 1.528 mS/cm * Estimated TDS: 764 ppm * Solution volume: Approximately 1.09 gallons Watering plan: Approximately 0.95 liters (1 quart) per plant per watering, with frequency determined by block moisture rather than a fixed daily schedule. Observations: Plants are transitioning to their larger growing blocks. Continue monitoring foliage, root development, moisture retention, and light exposure.
