Day 1 Had issues with the glass of water method but saying this I did not have the water at the right temperature (22c) after 72hrs moved to the paper towel method -put seed into paper towel -used ziplock bag and added plain water -thermostat inserted into ziplock bag -ziplock bag put between two plates thermostat set for 22 degrees Celsius -Germination 24hrs later- Transplant to 2 litre pot Filled with normal potting soil then put back onto heating tray set at 22 degrees Celsius Room temp fluctuations due to climate, downward 16 degrees Celsius and upwards 30 degrees Celsius inside grow area. Reverse cycle aircon in use but extreme weather swings. Day 2 Humidity - Humidity was around 54% in grow tent but I need 85 to 100% humidity, so Iโ€™ve cut a coke bottle in half with small holes in the bottom. Inside the makeshift humidity dome it sat at around 21.8 degrees Celsius and 98% humidity. Perfect - Also the potting soil was all but dry, so I used a spay bottle with plain tap water to moisten the soil. I have used a small plate for any runoff. When I see the runoff itโ€™s when I know itโ€™s time to stop watering. Iโ€™m watering the soil ever 2 days. Day 3 Only difference from today from yesterday was that I lowered the 30w LED light to around 5inches, due too lack of heat (17 degrees Celsius) inside grow room & turned off the inline extraction fan to trap so extra warmth. Trying for 22 degrees Celsius.

She has only just begun growing and to transplant her now would cause immense stress. You have enough room in that pot for 3-4 weeks growth. Wait until she has 4-8 leaves/nodes. Also, she does not need any type of cover, only cuttings/clones need extra humidity due to not having any roots. Your plant will grow fastest if you don't cut any leaves off/defoliate. Each healthy green leaf you remove will reduce your plants capacity to produce energy, slowing growth and resulting in smaller plants too. Defoliation as an idea should have died out with the dinosaurs as it provides no benefit to your plant, only detrimental trauma .So, please don't be tempted by the dinosaurs, all plants need maximum leaves for maximum energy production and for maximum growth. It is plant science 101. Try to only remove yellow leaves, for by the time they are yellow, they have served their purpose. I have been growing for 35+ years and have yet to see any plant that gets rid of its healthy green leaves. Yellow leaves yes, but not green leaves. If you are keen, check out some of my diaries to see how plants grow without ever having had even one healthy green leaf removed, just as mother nature intended. Sorry for the de-leaf rant, I just can't help myself at times! Hope this helps.,,... Organoman. P.S. - what is that black wire going into the pot??

Probably because you are yo-yoing your ph ha ha. It's a yo-yo yo. . I did it when I was first growing hydro. one day I'd be adding ph up the next I'd be adding ph down. constantly chasing the PH.. Less is more.. Let it settle and use water to raise the ph where possible.. Also use like 0.1 ml. Give it a good stir and wait to check it Give it a half hour to stabilize and be patient with it. Rates of transpiration will affect PH but if your plants are small chances are if your ph is going up and down it's from something you are doing. Or possibly a bacteria issue. But usually PH is relatively stable in smaller plants. Ie. I don't do daily check on ph until they get bigger. And on a side note "ph perfect" is bs it's just loaded up with Ph buffers beforehand and is counter productive to given growing environments and conditions.

Hi there,not recommend to defoliate if there isnโ€™t a good reason to do.Like do some defoliation to lower down tent humidity,to make a good air flow if too bushy.Defoliate some leaves If they are damaged or shaded below the canopy.May be some lollipopping if there are too many popcorn buds underneath.Other than those, shouldnโ€™t do.Those fan leaves are acting like extra sources of energy for plants. Also you shouldnโ€™t stress the plant anymore and let her grow happily until harvest.Happy Growing... โœŒ๏ธ

I don't know if you grow better buds or a better beard. Far as growth to be expected to many variables to predict that. Obviously you will have a good harvest.

Hi there, If you want to boost the bud growth, itโ€™s the best time.You can start using some booster like PK booster, Overdrive, etc.You can use for about two to three weeks.Then reduce on nutrient and wait for good time to harvest.Flushing or not is your choice.Happy growing... โœŒ๏ธ

Your still looking pretty white on pistols. Get a jewelers loupe and watch the trichromes. But I'd say your still a few weeks. And you need to add more weight. I start adding late bloom nutes when white hairs are about 10 % orange. Nice looking plant.

@@Waylate, cheers mate. Work out pretty well thanks. Had a little calcium nut lockout right at the end of last week, (kept the PH stagnant at 5.8 but letting it swing north of 6.5 helped with it ) but Iโ€™m planning on giving her the flush very soon. Pretty sure Iโ€™m only a couple weeks from harvest. But itโ€™s not like I exactly know what Iโ€™m doing lol. Probably beginners luck
