Expert Seeds - California Orange

11/2 - Soaked seeds overnight 11/3 - Soaked 2" GroDan Rockwool cube in 5.5pH water, drained, then soaked in 5.5pH water with .5ml/l GH RapidStart. Placed seed inside (no paper-towel method, this time). I plan on using the GH Flora Series Performance Pack on this grow to compare usage against the DynaGro line I'm using on another grow. I had purchased the GH set just prior to being donated the DynaGro line and I have enough of each to run two plants in dwc with each line to compare. I'll be starting at with 25% dilution of the recommended dosage of base nutrients and increasing up to 50% dilution before deciding whether or not to go further. This will be my first time using any GH products other than RapidStart. 11/6 - First signs of life. Attempted to streamline my process by germinating right in the rockwool cubes. So far, so good. I also upped the size of the rockwool cubes to 2" instead of the little 1" ones I have used in the past. Makeshift humidity dome fashioned from 2L bottle. 11/7 - Finally fully broken through the surface. Placed her in a separate propagation area in my grow tent under a 2' 4-bulb T5HO Fluorescent fixture. she will be on a 24/0 schedule for the time being and will probably have a fan placed on her tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by my garden! Regular updates are always on Sundays and other mid-week updates occur all the time. Stay tuned in and, as always, Happy Growing!
