Wow, been chasing my arse on these babies, obviously not all 8 ball, but thats all I am focussing on for this diary, I may add further dairies, but tbh the photos and the chat would be the same, needless to say, they are growing slowly, they are all either hybrid or indica, which I know from research are short and bushy, which is cool as I have 9 in my 1m tent.
I think I managed to correct my light and nutrient issues over the past few weeks and started to LST.
The main stalks on my plants are about 20mm thick and the root systems are poking out of the new pots I put them in a few weeks ago, I did state them in cloth bags, but.... couldn't monitor run off as the bag was retaining too much liquid, as my medium is clay pebbles and coco the water I do give them seems to just run straight through, I have had to water at 250ml twice a day when I choose to feed, watering twice a week, once with PH balanced and once with feed.
I have been adding calmag at a rate of 2ml per litre when I do feed, on top of coco A and B.
I have my carbon filter attached to my external fan and if I leave this off there is soooo much moisture in my tent, its almost raining, so I have to keep my fan on permanently, as well as my tower fan to help strengthen the plants, the result of that is the average temperature is around 20deg.
There's not really a lot to say about this week, sat my seeds on wet tissue with a wet tissue duvet over them in a nice warm dark place. took a few days to grow a shoot, only just bought a full new rig so the weekend was spent putting up my tent, sorting out the fans and extraction, ordering a few other essentials I think I am going to need such as a thermometer, hygrometer, jewelry loupe, syringes, tower fan..in no particular order there, just bits I missed at the grow shop or weren't included.
It cost me £730 for 1mx1mx2m tent, 300w led, 2 fans, ducting, carbon filter, some straps, feed and extra nutrients, fabric pots, Cana pebbles and Coco coir, heavy duty timer, ph kit and a 1mx1m tray for the bottom of the bud box.
Anyway, seeds were planted in today and started on light straight away on an 18 cycle, I screwed up and cracked 10 seeds, only meant to do 9 (max tent allowance I think) although looking at it already I know I am going to be pushed for space despite my intention to top and LST.
So, this is mainly for me to keep track of my head .... if you are here reading, thats cool and if you have any questions or suggestions, feel free...
