As I get started on my fourth grow, I can officially call myself an award-winning cannabis grower as my First Grow diary took second place here in the newbie of the month for April!!
Now to get some award winning level cannabis! Seeds were planted on 5.18.20 and four out the five seeds germinated the morning of 5.23.20. Accordingly, 5.23.20 is Day 0 and 5.24.20 is Day 1 and so and so forth. One seed did not germinate and I dug it up on Day 5 to find it filled with dirt after barely splitting open on one end. All told into my fourth grow I have germinated 1/1, 3/4, 10/10, and 4/5 seeds for a 90% success rate. That seems pretty good to me.
Once they sprouted up, I've kept them lightly watered every other day with filtered pH 6.8 water. They are in .9L plastic pots filled with leftover Fox Farm Ocean Forrest from my previous grow. That soil was mixed up and let to chill in a large, closed plastic container for about 2 weeks. Probably around day 10-12 I'll transplant with as much of that soil around the roots into new 5 gallon Air-Pots and new Ocean Forrest. Additionally, I acquired the Advanced Nutrients GMB Trio that I'll be adding in at some point. Maybe start at 1/4 strength after the second week in the new pots. We'll see. But once I start feeding, I will be making a schedule to which I shall strictly adhere.
One more note early, my best grows so far (out of three to be fair...) were mostly in the tent without much foliage competition. My third grow I crowded the tent aggressively. It worked, to an extent, but I think I'll have much more success with only 4 plants and much more space for them to spread and flourish. Additionally, without the taproots getting all gunked up with a peat pot, I should have much better stable growth.
Overall, I'm really excited to grow these Kera Seeds Cherry Grapefruit Autoflower seeds! I know it's early days but everything seems good so far! Just finished up my Third Go grow diary and am looking forward to trying to keep regular updates on this guy.
Day 7 Update: So far so good. Watered and looking pretty healthy.
