Day. One .
Seeds placed in an airing cupboard 11.2.20.
Mixed 1.5 ltr bottle with 6ml biobizz root and pH water using lemon juice to 6.0.
Using a small amount of this mix, I used a few drops to lightly soak the tissue paper. I placed all cream caramel seeds into a bed of wet damp tissue and warpped the container in cling film. This was then stored in an airtight closet at a steady temp 22.5c
Day 2
12.02.20
Seeds appeared to have popped open, recovered and left another day.
Day 3.
All seeds have popped and their showing their little clover leaves.
I soak 8 root it cubes in water that was mixed with root it liquid 1.5 LTRs pH 6.0 (5ml root it) poured some into a container and the soaked the root it cubes for 4 hrs.
Once soaked, I squeezed each cube ensuring there was some moisture left. All seeds are placed in the cubes and left another night in a closet of darkness, room temp 21.5c humidity 48%.
Day 4.
14.02.20
The seedlings are all upright, good signs of root development. Roots appear thick n bold bright white covered in fluffly hairs.
Using the same mix ratio of food mix as described in day 3, I drop 10 drops into each root it cube and recover in cling film.
However this time I place them 6" under a 25w vegging led light in a tupble box warpped in cling film. 24 hr light schedule starts.
Room temp 23c
Humidity 50%
So far the seedlings responded really well to Root Juice from Biobizz,. Potted all of them on day 5, and have kept them under a 600w.led vegging light (Cobb Cree 3000w Led by Philizon)
One problem I encountered was once you've made an entry in your diary you cant go back in mid week to update your progress, hence notes from the end of my last week's progress in week two.
Not much happening on the surface, miniature differences with each one, but been autos right now the seedlings will be rooting.
Let's see what the progress is this week.
Subtle changes made to environment.
Light cycle is now 19 on 5 off.
Using the Philizon cob Cree 3000w full spectrum veg light.
Light suspended 21' of the lip of the pot practically the top of the seedlings, I could have got it lower but I can't imagine much difference, this would also mean jigging the set up around .
Temperature previously was 19c to 23c.
Temperature has been slightly altered to 22.4c to 25.6 following some guidance I read up on
https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-indoor-cannabis-growing-relative-humidity-and-temperatures-n243.
Totally recommend visiting the link about and having a read through climate and environment throughout the cycle of your plant.
Set up is currently been regulated by Inkbird climate remote heat n cooling.
Using 5 blade mini oil radiator ;)
NOT much to update you on, keep peeled more updates to follow.

1500w oil radiator ;) set at 900w 27/28c
22.02.20- Slight change to air exchange set for every 14 mins previously cycling every 40 to 43 mins( radiator was set too low, higher power temp, more responsive to temp changes.) This enables the radiator oil to reach its heat n switch off it's internal thermostat at the device, not the controller. I found I was able to continue radiating a couple of air cycles, before finally dropping below 25.7 which then triggers the radiator to kick in as it's been able to cool off for nearly 26mins)
Temp cycle

Fan activates 27.5 stops at 27 but temp drops 1.5
Heater (controlled by Inkbird climate controller) activates 26.c stops at 27.c takes a further 6 mins to climb

Take 14 mins for cycle.
Pot temp 22.4 c to 23.7c
Misting
Using Active Vera 1.5 ltr 3ml active vera, once a day, especially over the top soil I find helps raise the humidity (ranges 60 - 80%)

Sat 14/03/20 D32
(Seems I wasn't putting enough water through, so no previous run offs.) I noticed the begining signs of Nitrogen toxicity as some leaf's where begining to claw.
I let the plants dry out a day further.
I filled a reservoir 80 ltrs tap water, n let sit overnight
pH to 6.3
Sunday W4 D33 15/03/20
Poured 8 litres into each pot gradually (2ltr bottle hand feed)
- water didn't run off untill the 6ltr (3rd bottle), the next 2ltrs that followed ran out quicker & less sluggish.
I checked in 6hrs later, plants appear to be well. I will keep you posted as we enter the beginning of week 5 (week6 on grow diaries as Day 1 was week 1,. Unable to amend)
#sweetseeds
Week 5 - Day 39 - 20/03/20
Coming along well, grown 12/13 inches since last week. Plants hit 28" to 31".
I tied down the plants and spread open the centre of each pot, as you'll see from images, flowering well.
No issues, no problems with nutes l, recovered well from a light flushing,.
Doing a 6ltr feed per pot every 3 days, however I'm only feeding nutes once a week, followed by straight water feed. Sticking to pH.6.3 ;)
It's beginning to hum, let's see what's happens next week
Week 5 - Day 39 - 20/03/20
Coming along well, grown 12/13 inches since last week. Plants hit 28" to 31".
I tied down the plants and spread open the centre of each pot, as you'll see from images, flowering well.
No issues, no problems with nutes l, recovered well from a light flushing,.
Doing a 4ltr feed per pot every 2 days, however I'm only feeding nutes once a week, followed by straight water feed. Sticking to pH.6.3 ;)
It's beginning to hum, let's see what's happens next
Day 42.
Some plants showed signs of nitrogen deficiency.
Push more nutes more frequently rather than a single nute feed a week.
Watering plants 4lrs a pot to ensure there's some run off. Feeding once every 2 days.
In my last post I thought I'd get away doing a single nute feed each week, but this didn't work as the leafs began to lighten, a day or 2 later. Switched to doing a regular feed of 2ltrs pp each day, their looking really good. Buds beginning to merge m fatten up,.
I will start monitor ing the buds from Week 8 day 1 (57) 07/4/20
Week 8 Day 58, started flushing with plain tap water, no nutrients. pH 7.1.
Experience a heat wave in the week (D58 to 61) which drove temperatures up, extended nyt time to 19 5, but even late evening it rose to 31c ( for upto 2 hrs before dropping to a steady 26c. Heat stress to some of the top fan leaves(curling).
Orange hairs slowly! appearing. Very sticky, vanilla cream scent, it's coming upto week 9 D64, not sure if they'll be ready or will need another week longer?
However, Not all cream caramels 'look' the same.
Smells strong, sweet, vanilla cream
Judging by the pictures uploaded for Day 62, does anyone recognise how much longer theyll need light for as their supposed to be ready in 8 weeks and were entering week 9 (D 64) mostly white hairs,. Some orange hairs appearing here n there but prominently white for day 62.
Hey buddy :-)
First of all I have to say that your growroom is really cool 😎.
To your question :
Do you have a microscope to look at the trichomes (resin glands)?
If you don't have one and I have to go after the pictures, I would flush them but leave them for 10-14 days :-)
Only in my opinion.
A microscope would of course be much better.
I hope I could help you .
Let it grow and keep it up 🙏🏻
