Welcome to my sponsored Green House Seed Diary. Thanks for dropping by, drop a like if you'd like me to drop by your diaries, either way thanks for dropping by.
Equipment.
At the moment, my FC 3000 is hard working but she'll be free in 7 days and will be added to these grows. For the moment I'm using a viparspectra at 45cm at 65% intensity. Using Green House Feeding for nutrients, biobizz light mix & all mix. For the moment they only on light mix but on the uppot in 7 or so days I'll add some All Mix. Every 2 weeks I'll add 1g/1L of Bioenhancer, and that's it. Real easy, will give me more time to work on the girls as they grow and not worry about what needs what, just water and go, depending I get the mixes right.
Week 1, seedling day 3. All the girls done in Rock Wool showed roots down the end of the wool, all but 2, I could see in the hole that she was strangling herself, I carefully cut the wool in half, still no roots, so, I went in, and I'm glad I did. As you can see, she literally cut her own roots, it was dangling and came off with ease. Using gloves I held the stem over the 3/4 full wet pot of substrate. Made a small hole in the middle and placed the roots in it and held the stem and folded the dry soil around the stem making it secure. Now, there's no need to wet the top, (as the roots were in the base I made that was wet, so there is no wet soil around the stem. (I'm only thinking of it now, I have clonex gel that would of rapidly increased root growth and helped take some risk out of her not been able to make it)
After a few days when I know she's out of danger I'll spray the top of the substrate to activate the nutrients and hopefully get some good mycelium/fungus going. I had a feeling this would happen, it happens a lot in soil but we don't notice it, and if I was using synthetic nutrients she more then likely would of grown out of the rock wool but as the roots need to be touching the soil as that's where the nutrients are it would of struggled. So needed to be done. Next few days will be do or die for this gal. She was stressed a lot and lost half of her tap. Let's see.(update below)
Seedling D 3 was when she was uprooted from Rock wool and transplanted with cut roots, D5 you can see her, 1 of her cotyledons has turned pale, so she did struggle to find her footing, but she is doing well. The other WatermZXVelvet moon that was was done with rockwool is in much better shape, have a look.
The nutrients are mixed into the soil and you just water every time she needs it, the bioenhacer needs to be given once every 2 weeks. I mixed 3g/1L of substrate. As she gets older when I uppot her I'll add extra powder per/L of sub and I'll also be introducing some biobizz all mix. I just want to get going on some good fungus action and if I added some all mix I wouldn't of been able to add enough powder to get mycelium/fungus going, this is healthy and good. You'll see it when you use root stims, it'll make stuff fuzzy, mycelium. Good fungus that will decay with organic matter and make for a good bacteria ground for your gals.
Seedling Day 5 We have fungus lift off, she out of the woods after Harsh transplant if you haven't read about above.
Seedling Day 5-7 Okay steady normal growth. I can just see the next set of nodes to up come. So she's on track for normal growth. Her sister though, is miles ahead. 2moro is a new week, so now that the RH/TEMPERATURE is dialed in I'm hoping I'll see explosive growth.
Thanks to my sponsor at Green House Seeds who I death with, great guy. And to everyone there that makes these great strains.
And to my sponsor who sought me out from marshydro, she's a pleasure deal with, love this brand.
