Salute everyone!
We have a liftoff!
Since this is my first grow i spent the last month at least in research, tents, lights, strains, nutrition (omg), growing medium, watering, temp, humidity and so on! Total overload.
When i got my tent and seeds, it was time to visit my local grow shop, and the nicest of people who happens to be the owner, reassured me that im going to be fine. And thats my plan.
Read some diaries here and I’m really looking forward to engage with the community!
Today is 01/09 - the day it begins. Seeds are in the soil.
01/09 - morning
Implanted the seeds at night and turned the light at 20% power about 50cm away from the surface and turned the vent to around 25%
The himidity dropped to 55%.
so I’ve decided to turn off the vent for now. Now the humidity is around 65% which i would like to keep thru seedling/veg stage
03/09 - midnight
Full 48 hours has passed since the seeds were planted. No signs of life so far.
03/09 - 70 hours after planting the germinated seeds in the soil 2/3 have srouted. The third one didn’t have a root when planted, but was cracked open, so i guess she’s lagging a little.
Tomorrow morning will switch the lights to 18/6. 25% of power.
04/09 - 84 hours after planting
All three girls are up.
Switching light to 18/6 (25% power)
Installed a go pro to shoot a time lapse.
05/09 - morning
Seems that nothing changed overnight. Compared my plants with a day by day progress reference i found on the web.
So i decided to help the plants and remove the shell of the seed.
Seems went well. Only plant 1 managed to remove only one half, second half is glued.
05/09 - afternoon
After removing the shells i noticed that the cotyledons are glued together by the residue on the seed. Performed a microsurgery (neurosurgeon wanabe)
Attached.
Finally the plants are free and exposed to the light
