Day 22: very first pistils today, ground cover is starting to sprout as well. Looks like this could actually be a super fast auto
Day 25: watered with calcium phosphate and diatomaceous earth.
Day 28: watered again with same as day 25 with the addition of fpj
@Topsrite, the metal hallide light is currently about 12 inches from the plant (just cranked up to 400 watts), forgot to change that from seedling stage. Will be switching to hps soon as this auto is sharing a tent with two photo periods. For feeding I'm messing around with some homemade organic inputs; fermented plant juice, sprouted seed teas, calcium phosphate made from charred pork ribs, will be making compost teas as well. All inspired by korean natural farming and a website called homestead and chill, lots of great resources there. This grow is all about experimenting for me and trying to keep it organic and healthy.
@R3eveo, soak for 18 hours in RO water, then straight in to moist soil. I'll keep a clear plastic dome over it and they usually sprout within a couple of days
@R3eveo, I like to soak my seeds in Reverse osmosis water for 18 hours and then put them directly in the soil at about 1/8 inch depth. Never had a seed not sprout using this method. They usually pop out of the soil within 2 days.
