First time grower. We soaked the seeds in water for 12h, then put them in paper towel and after 12 more hours we planted the germinated seeds. They sprouted in less than 24 hours too!
Medium: Canna Coco Pro Plus with 30% perlite mix.
BIG UP for FastBuds for 100% germination rate in less that 24h.
Everything going well so far, we didn't encounter any problems yet, but will cut down on the watering as in only watering when the top inch dried out.
UPDATE (16/11): The problem with over-watering turned out to be true as minor spots with algae appeared over the coco, now we water every 2 days, maybe more for the plants closer to the humidifier. We did some more research and found out is not a good idea to let coco to dry out completely, especially an inch.. we will try to water when the color changes from dark to brownish. Also, the leaves started curling recently and we think it is because of wind burn so we turned the ventilator to not blow directly on the leaves. We will see in the following days if our hunches turn out to be true.
UPDATE(19/11): The leafs are a kind of droppy and we think it is because of over-water again...can't seem to find the right schedule..it's so hard to be a beginner. Also, we added the second light in the tent and now the temperatures raised to 28-30 degrees... probably also because we lowered the light to 45 cm as well.
Started LST from 25/11. Also, after quite some time we finally found out that is best to have coco watered to a saturation of 90%-100% so now we are watering with around 1 liter a day looking for a 10%-20% runoff to avoid mineral build up.
