Hello there,
🇬🇷
so the previous week was good with slow but steady growth...the girls were fed with Bio Grow from GHF and some of the Enhancer...they are under a 50W Led,safe and sound,until transplant when they will be moved outdoors...
WEEK 3 : "RUN IF YOU CAN"
☠️Day 15...they are forming the 5th set of leaves...strange thing,when I get them out of their cupboard they tend to stretch their leaves upwards...when I put them back they are back to normal...I think it has to do with humidity...thinking of transplanting soon as I can see the roots on 2 of the 3...I started preparing the pots,I put Bio Grow from GHF and the babies will be transplanted there in a few days...just waiting for the weather to be stable as they will go outdoors...
☠️Day 16...💧watering time for my babies...they seem to be very well...awaiting for that transplant...today I was thinking about what to do with the girls in terms of training...what I have decided is that I will perform different techniques for each one of them...one will be left to grow naturally like a Christmas tree...the second will be topped and the third will be LSTed...it is a good chance to compare the final weight of each technique...what stresses me a bit is that these girls will go outdoors during the day and under low wattage Leds during the night...I am used to using an HPS lighting and I don't know if the sun here from my spot will be enough...moreover summer is coming...here in Greece the temps will go above 35° C in July...I guess I have work to do and solutions to find...
☠️Day 17...💧📥transplant is here...the girls were put in their final homes, pots of 15 L,and were watered with plain water...I used "Coco Humus" which is coco coir fiber mixed with 20 % manure and organic matter...Its ph is 6,0 - 6,8...I also added Bio Grow, 45 gr for 15 L substrate, and the same quantity of Bio Bloom, both from Green House Feeding... I was a bit confused if I should place the Bio Bloom now,but I decided to do so as these are their final containers...they are 100% organic so I am not worried about any kind of burn...
they are now inside under low wattage Leds so that they will slowly get used to their new environment...I may give them some sun in the afternoon...their roots had reached the bottoms of the solo cups,so it was a good time for transplanting...hope they will take it good...I don't like calling them with numbers so I will give them names...We have Angie,Michelle and Lucy...Girls say hello to everyone...
☠️Day 18...its cloudy outside...the girls will stay inside under their low lighted shelter...maybe I will take them outside for a couple of hours just to get some fresh air...transplant was OK for them,no signs of shock or something...they are a bit small but from now on they will have the mighty Sun with them outside...I hope they will boost...Run if you can babies...
💀💀💀...today they survived a massive attack from my son...he probably wanted his toys back from the pots...🤣🤣🤣Anyway,Michelle is a bit hurt on her stem..not something very serious but I have to keep an eye on her...
☠️Day 19...💧summer is here...with temps at 32°C the girls are outside sunbathing...🌞I uploaded a short video showing them off...
I watered each one with 500 ml of pure water (ph 6,9)...
☠️Day 20...it's too hot down here...the girls are enjoying the sun but I have a feeling I will have a problem with the temps outside...it's too early too be that hot...32-35 °C...
☠️Day 21....💧last day of the week...the girls are doing fine...I would like them a bit bigger but I think they will catch up...Today I used 6,0 ph water for the first time...usually I don't adjust it,straight from the tap...after a lot of research I decided to give them water at this ph as it is better for coco.I hope the will like it..
So,I hope u enjoyed this week like I did...see u next week..stay tuned...
