Day 1(9.19) - Soaked over night in warm(~75°) tap water on top of plate and heat pad. Day 2(9.20) - Put in between wet paper towel on same plate and heat pad, checking every couple hours so it doesn't dry out. Day 3(9.21) - Adding water as needed, both seeds were popped by mid day. Day 4(9.22) - Moved both into 5 gallon smart pots with Super Soil Organic Concentrate and a 50/50 mix of Foxfarm happy frog and ocean forest soil. The light is set to 100 watt draw and 23" from top of pots. Trying to keep RH to 65-70% and Temps to 70-75° with lights being 18 on 6 off from noon to 6 PM. Day 5(9.23) - Added humidifier to keep humidity from getting too low. Checking every few hours to make sure soil doesn't dry out. Day 6(9.24)- Watering outer rim when top dries out. Day 7(9.25) - Left one broke from top of soil, avoiding direct water to seedling.

Day 8(9.26) - 2nd one broke soil. Watering roughly 1 liter every 1-2 days each and raised the watts to 175. Day 9(9.27) - Watered until leaked from below and lowered light to 17" and set to 100 watts to save energy. Day 10(9.28) -Humidity was around 80% so I used a towel to dry up most of the runoff. Put in color tabs(pink is lsf and yellow is rsf) for photo documentation. Day 11(9.29) - Angled lights and lowered watts to 43 to get both plants under 10k LUX/~145 PPFD since lsf is 3000k led and rsf is 4000k (don't ask lol). Keeping an eye out may need to raise or lower watts since I've read from HLG website that it's suggested below 100 PPFD for seedlings but no issues so far. Day 12(9.30) - Watered. Day 13(10.1) - Switched pot sides to see if the light is causing one side to grow faster or genetics. Day 14(10.2) - Watered.

Day 22(10.10) - Watered and raised lights to keep around 10k Lux/145 ppfm. Day 23(10.11) - Topped pink. Day 24(10.12) - Watered lightly. I looked up my municipals and it uses chloramine. My RO system doesn't remove it. Since that will kill the super soil's microbiome, I bought a water conditioner to remove and next watering I will add more super soil to top to get microbiome back into soil. Day 25(10.13) - Added 2 handfuls each pot of the super soil and mixed with top soil then watered with conditioner going forward. Rotated yellow due to it tilting possibly due to fan and raised fan. Setup very weak twine trellis (not pictured), may be useless but I set it up before it got too crowded in tent. Day 26(10.14) - Raised watts to 110 and measured around 24k lux/ 350 PPFD since it is no longer in seedling stage. Day 27(10.15) - Watered. Day 28(10.16) - Watered and did LST.

Did more LST on pink and topped all after 2nd node on both plants. Day 32(10.20) - Watered and did a little more LST on yellow. Day 33(10.21) - Cut lowest fan leaves off of pink due to looking infected with something. Day 34(10.22) - Raised light to 19" above canopy and watered. Put 20 mg molasses in the 10 l water jug.

Day 72(11.29) - Watered. Day 73(11.30) - Watered and decided even on weeks I'm not doing full molasses I will use a little as a ph down since the plants are handling well. Day 74(12.1) - Nothing new. Day 75(12.2) - Nothing new. Day 76(12.3) - Watered and angled lights to distribute light/lux more evenly over both plants. Day 77(12.4) - Pink seems to have a calcium deficiency or something similar so I will be going to molasses every week until I see nutrient burn. Starting next week I will be taking more detailed photos at beginning and end of each week instead of daily overviews. Day 78(12.5) - Watered and clipped a few of the largest fan leaves on yellow to get light to more buds.

I removed the yellow spotted leaves. Day 81(12.8) - Removed more yellow spotted leaves and added a cup of water to keep from drying out over-night. Day 82(12.9) - Removed more yellow spotted leaves. Day 83(12.10) - Nothing new. Day 84(12.11) - Watered and lightly defoliated the center of yellow. Day 85(12.12) - Nothing new.

Turned out higher quality than I've done before but less than half the amount of last time I worked with this same strain. Thing to keep in mind on that point is that the last time I helped my friend with this strain, it had 3 plants, non-organic nutrients, and was still acquiring parts of the grow as issues showed up. Please let me know any suggestions you may have. Thanks.
