Growing 4 strains for my first ever grow. This specific Diary will be for Delicious Seeds Critical Jack Herer Auto Day -5: Soaked the seeds for 24h Day -4: Seeds soaked for 24h and all sank to the bottom saturating the seeds. Mixed Canna Coco Plus+ substrate with 5% Perlite. Then proceeded to wash even though the Canna Coco Plus+ comes prewashed I wanted to make sure and also get it nice and moist. Once the water was soaked through I took my fist (with gloves on) and compacted the soil to squeeze extra water out. With a sanitary glove on (no powder) after draining then i proceeded to loosen back up the substrate so it was nice and fluffy. Also to remix and distribute the Perlite evenly as seen in the next photo Placed pots in grow tent and soaked up any excess water draining from the side. Placed non popped but pre-soaked seeds into the pots about 1 inch down and gently covered with coco. Placed humidifier in tent and set to 60%. The reason why I did this instead of the paper towel method is because I did not want to risk transporting them once the taproots were already out and placing them in damp loose soil and slightly covered achieves the exact same effect without any downside risk of transporting them. The drawback is I wont know if any seeds are duds for about a week but that is not a very large risk. Plant health is paramount. Day -3: Nothing to report. Humidity level and temperatures holding steady. Lightly sprayed the top of each pot's substrate. Substrate is still moist, don't want to over water and kill the seedlings Day -2: Very gently misted the top soil and a few drops of water Day -1: She still hasnt sprouted yet even though her three sisters have. It hasnt been all that long though. I'm holding out hope! Day 1: She's arrived and beautiful! I may have made a slightly deeper pocket for her to grow out of in the substrate, or she may just be more stubborn. A few drops of water out of a 20ML plastic syringe Day 2: CJH's looking great, nice and healthy. Fed her 10ml of water from a plastic syringe of just my standard ph8 water. Day3: Watered with PH 8 just a few drops around her base. She's growing but leaves starting to droop unlike her 3 other sisters. I believe she maybe a bit more sensetive to the higher PH. Tomorrow I'll be rebuffering the coco and watering with a lower PH solution. Day 4: Soil was drying out a little on the periphery. Today is my first day of feeding, also my first attempt doing so ever. I'm attempting to mix a very light solution while bringing down the PH to within range. I mixed in Canna A+B + Rhizo and a tiny bit of Magnesium and Calcium with a EC of 0.7 and a PH of 6.2. I'll be monitoring the seedlings closely. I worry that my EC is slightly high by 0.1 or 0.2 EC. After about 10 hours since there was no runoff from the substrate I elected to water again. This time i only did Rhizotonic 2mL/L (4L total, 1 Liter per plant) with a much lighter EC of 0.4 (my water is 0.3) and gentle PH 5.8 Day 5: All the girls are looking great. They seem to really be enjoying life and their Rhizotonic (2mL/L 5.8ph 0.4EC) Which she got more of today - I'm especially happy that CJH perked up. Day 6: Nothing to report today. Looking healthy. The soil is nice and saturated so no watering today. I'll update tomorrow with a new picture to end the week. Day 7: She's been getting bigger. Her medium is still nice and saturated so i elected not to feed any Rhizo today. Tomorrow being the 1st day of the 2nd week I'll be feeding a bit more than just Rhizotonic. I also lowered the light down 10cm to 80cm total height. (from 90)

Maaan I see what you are saying some megga stretchy autos its probably the heat, bushbaby nailed it "It's nearly 27Β° in me yard yet alone me tent" hadn't noticed your tent temps, air-conditioning or bottled C02 might be upgrades worth considering on future runs that's said I see some very happy girls despite it all and man, oh man, does that critical jack looks fantastic or what? I can practical taste the terps I love how silver her baby buds look, great job man that's going t be a really rewarding crop :) can't wait to see how it goes

@Hemporio_Afghani, Ya that CJH is a real winner. I'll be growing her again in the future. I'm very excited to see how they all turn out but CJH has me salivating as well!

Wow, that must of been a good day to chop her bruv and get a little more room to manoeuvre the other babies!! I too had some branches wanting to bend over and even had one on the floor when I came home recently!!! πŸ˜• Like you I didn't realize how weighty they'd become!!! Big Up for all your fine work my friend πŸ‘ŠπŸŒž Mine's just having dark period for 2 days then I'll be chopping her down on Saturday.....I'll get myself well fed, spark and boon and get started early doors πŸ˜‰

By the way, slight burn on the tips of leaves is normal if you were in a good ec range. Plants dont need as high a feed at this stage and the hormone change, usually get some tip burn from the remaining veg nutes as they dont want that much nitrogen anymore. Dont mean to diss you at all but if your running at 1.9 right now that is really high for early flower. 1.2 is where I start and may go up to 1.6 if they really need it. 1.9 was ok for veg but to high for flower...luck to you. Cheers. Looking good.

@@Lit_1, I see a little light burn on one of the tops but all the lower tips would be as I explained. Just remember it's just a weed and it only requires minimum nutes. The ec levels that the manufacturer put out there is mostly for professional growers with thousands of dollars put into lighting and environment control. Even they dont use max nutes, trust me, I'm an old hippie. you dont want to overfeed. Your crop will suffer. Those companies want you to use as much as possible so your money leaves there pocket and enters theirs. Just do a google about weed needing less in flower. Cheers my friend, gonna follow you. keep in touch

@GMSgrows, Thank you for the tip gmslave, no diss taken! I appreciate the input. I'll scale it back slowly and monitor their health. The tips i'm almost certain is from light stress however and not nutrient burn. With that in mind and maybe having a second look, what do you think?

Yes brother πŸ˜‰ With regards to your humidity there, I had exactly the same problem but recently purchased a dehumidifier from a company called Meaco here in the UK through Amazon!!! I went for a 10L ABC model and I've got it set up with an Inkbird Humidity Controller, its a game changer for me!!! It's got 2 fan speeds too which is ideal if you need it quieter like me!! Well worth a look my friend......you won't be able to fit it inside your tent this time due to space but it'll perfect for the next grow!! πŸ‘ If you're drawing fresh air in from the room the tents in then just use it outside for now....πŸ˜‰
