Welcome to my FastBuds GSC grow-off diary! I plan on growing 2 seeds from the same package - one using a 950ml Gatorade bottle dwc system, and the other sharing a 64L reservior DWC. I'll grow them both while trying to be as simiar in techique as i can, but i'm more interested in how the 950ml does, so might not be super picky about doing things exactly the same, heh.
I'm making this all up as I go!
Enjoy the ride!
Week 0
======
Day 0.1 - 2 seeds in water for 24hrs
Day 0.2- 2 Seeds in wet paper towel, in a plastic bag for 24-48hrs until taproot is out
Day 0.3 - 24hrs later - one seed has sprouted a tail
Day 0.4 - 2nd seed sprouted tail; put both seeds into rockwool
Day 0.5 - 1st seed sprouted from rockwool
Day 0.6 - 1st seed doing well, 2nd seed no change
Day 0.7 - Checked 2nd seed and hasn't budged, so it's a dud. Started a new seed (had 3 GSC, so all good!)
Day 0.8 - 1st seed into the 1L DWC bottle!
Day 0.10 - 3rd seed germinated - into rockwool to sprout.
DWC Prototype
-----------------
- 950ml Gatorade Bottle
- 2x small air stones
- 1/2" overflow tube where i want the water level to be
- Nutrient top-feed line
The reservoir below is 19L (~15L of solution) with a small 80gph water pump on lowest setting, which will be on a timer for 15 mins every 3 hours (at first - we'll see how that goes).
The water pumps nutrient solution up to the Gatorade bottle and the overflow goes back down into the reservoir.
@Fast_Buds, Thanks! One of my seeds didn't germ fully, so luckily i had another GSC from the 3-pack - Let me know if you have any tips for growing in a 1L!!! hahahah
