Seeds soaked for 30 hours in rainwater and a cap of hydrogen peroxide. 10/10 split in water.
Jiffy pots soaked with rainwater and a splash of Canna Rhizotonic. A dusting of mycorrhizae added to planting hole.
24 hours - 5 seedlings had emerged. Light spray of rainwater rhizotonic solution.
36 hours - 8 seedlings had fully emerged, with the 9th seedling just visible on the surface.
Chose the best 6 seedlings and planted into their pots after removing the outside fabric of the Jiffy pots and dusting the hole with mycorrhizae . The rest are kept for backup.
Pots are 10L Airpots x 6
Soil is Dr Greenthumb's water only soil with about 8cm of potting mix on top.
Watering system uses Hydro Halo watering rings pumped from a 100l tank run from a timer. Timing still to be determined.
3 x Migro 100 LED lights in a 2'x4' Tent
Plan is to add homemade worm castings at around week 5 to ensure enough nutrients, and to alternate between Dr Greenthumb's Root Roids and Fruit Roids at the start of flowering. This may change pending more research.
Hey there!
Glad to see you got a diary going, thanks so much for growing FastBuds 🙌🏼
If you need any assistance, don't hesitate to let us know!
Happy Growing! 💚🌱
Good luck on you're grow, you're plants look great! I love GG - hopefully you get some solid nice nugs! How far away is you're LED from the plants? Min of 12 inch and up to 18 inches away is optimal otherwise you chance light stress - one of mine has gone through this exact process. I thought it was a nitrogen deficiency which I then tried too fix, causing it too be over watered and stunting some growth. All part of the tinkering process.
@Memkasa, That's literally what I'm trying too work out atm whether yellowing is from over watering or light stress, purely because coffee grounds hasnt changed the plant colour its stayed the same so my soil must still be nitrogen rich. Good luck working it out!
@Bashgrowsitall1989, thanks mate. Lights are about 3 feet away at the moment - due to be dropped to about 18 inches in the next day or 2.
I'm 96% sure the yellowing is from over watering. All the testing of my watering system has seen a lot more water go through than I would have liked - but yeah, it's all tinkering... and it's a lot of fun!
