Hello Grow Diaries! First journal so bare with me please. First off the seeds were bought here in the great white north from Niagara Seed bank. These are Niagaras Own Seeds and i thought i would try them out for a change of pace.
I germinated the seeds using the paper towel/plastic bag method until i saw just the start of the tap root, then transferred the seeds to rock wool cubes phโd to 5.5 and threw them in a humidity dome with heating pad. Three of the four seeds managed to sprout in the next 2 days but one seed had not. After 5 days I opened the rock wool to find that the seed had a tap root but no further progress, so I decided to pop another bean.
It has been two days and you can see the beginning of life in the rock wool cube. On day seven I transplanted them into their final resting place and filled my reservoir with 6 gallons of Mega Crop with ppm of 300 and phโd to 5.8. I ahve set the drip for 20mins on 20mins off and we will adjust accordingly.
The grow begins and i am excited to share my grow journey with the great people in the Grow Diaries Community.
