In the beginning i was alittle concerned because of the automaticStrain in a Microgrow. But those Ladies
took all like " Bosses".
The Rabbit and the lil white Sheep produced lots of Flowers.
What a Journey,
I enjoyed this "Egghunt " so much
Last Decemmber @Silky_smooth, wrote me, if i want to participate into a Challenge
called " Egghunt"
That means growing a Plant from Seed into 50g Of Soil// Medium
That means as much as fit into an Eggshell.
So i did not think a lot and said yes. And the " EGGHUNT" begun.
I started looking for funny // sweet little Growcontainers, and I found some Fancy ones.
Black Sheeps, white Sheeps, ( Eggcups) , and some Tealightholders, one like a Rabbit, and a " Bridge"
i filled Soil into the Cups, and Into the Sheepcups were under 10 gram of Soil. The " cups" from the Bridge had 35 g
Sooooo... challenge accepted!!
In the Beginning it was hard to me not to overwater them.But they Mastered my drownings very well
After 14 Days i had to manage the Feeding of the Girls. Until that time they only got Beneficals and the Nutes from the 10g Soil.
But i got some help from my Growmies, how to feed them , ( not over and underfeed).....Stoney gave me the Hint for an EC of 1000-1200
And so i did it
I mixed bigger amounts of Feedingsolution, and the little Cups were diving into the Feedingsolution daily.
I could see they got nice color and look fresh again.
The bigger they got, the more they liked to drink
Then i switched after 5 Weeks from Vegetation into Floweringmode.
So they were diving 2 times in the Day into the Feedingsolution. not every Day, but very often..
From there on, it became much easier to me. Because i could see what they need.
And the Fun began.
Buds were swelling, and Flowers were smelling.
In the last 2 Weeks i topdressed with laygranules, to keep humidity into the Cups
Until we reached Today..
So Today i cut them and ooked into the cups, and i got to say,,, i could snot see any sooil, only ROOTS....
Solid , totally woven Roots. Most of the Soil was flushed away from the divings.
But Plants looked good until last Day
CONCLUSION:
I learned so much in this Challenge.I learned so much about Watering/Feeding.. and having Fun on the Little Things
I feel like i have Grown, together with my little Plants. I feel very confident to do Soilless/ DWC or any other grow
hahaha... I feel like i can grow everything...
I hope you had the same Fun like me into that " EGGHUNT"
And thank you @Silky_smooth, for asking me to paricipate
Legalize that wonderful Plant!!!
I love the farm.. happy animal pots growing the next crop.. very nice👍😍.
It gives me an idea to grow in a bunny rabbit pot and time it to harvest at easter🤔🤔
@Mrs_Larimar,I Saw. 😊 Dont worry, the idea is yours.. I was just thinking aloud.. If i followed through with all my ideas i would need two life times to finish off.
