WEEK 2
01/07/2018
Day 8
Removed the humidity dome and continued with the same nutrient mixture.
Day 10
Fastbuds has such a good reputation, I decided to see what happened to the 2 seeds that hadn't popped. Turns out, there must have been voids in the coco mix in those 2 pots that collapsed with the first watering burying the seeds too deeply. Poor suckers had nice roots and about 6 inches of stem they put out desperately searching for the light. I've replanted them with an appropriate amount of stem above the coco mix and hopefully they will recover. Live and learn.
The 3 that popped are progressing nicely.
Day 11
Looks like the 2 “underground” sprouts are going to make it. The stems are straightening and the leaves are greening up nicely.
I've had to increase the nutrients to twice daily. The air is still very dry and it seems the roots are developing well and pulling moisture out of the coco as well.
@Hawkbo, I know it's been a while but I thought you'd appreciate this update. I grew out the last WCOG seed I had and the results were quite amazing. She was just under 47" tall and yielded a hair over 3.5oz trimmed and dried.
It was the same tent / nutes / light setup that I used for the full grow documented here.
Go figure.
@Hawkbo, Turns out I was a bit optimistic ... final dry yield was 9oz ... less than I expected but for my first experimental auto grow I'll take it. I have some other autos scheduled for the auto tent rotation but expect another WCOG in the near future with the 2+oz target in mind :)
