Mephisto Genetics A seed for weed. White 'n' Bubbly soil grow/LED

[MrK]

It's officially day 0. Everyone starts with day 1, so why not a different approach?

3 days has gone since the soaking. The seed sank in 8 hours, but left 20 in the glass of water and then straight to soil. Had a look 10 minutes ago and she has decided to bring her helmet to the surface. Placed her under the light and covered her with a piece of paper, until she is a little more established. In 24 hours I will have a nice little green seedling ready to rock.

Game on

 

[MrK]

Welcome to the world little friend. 24/0 for the first 7 days with the light at half power, then 20/4 for the rest of the grow. I hope I can keep her somehow small so she won't outgrow my cabin, but that can be a challenge with a cross of two of their biggest strains. Lets see how it goes. Next update in 7 days, but I had to show her. I fall in love with every little seedling. It's amazing how such a tiny little seed can develop into a monster in literally no time.

 

[MrK]

7 days has passed and my little friend here is moving forward. Not really a lot to tell, but she has had a single watering of 1ml/L of Fishmix. Next feeding, I will add 1ml/L of Grow to the mix. I have lowered the light to 50cm from 65cm, but still on half power. It was my plan to switch to 20/4 now, but temperatures outside are still pretty low around here, so I need the heat from the light. Temperature in the soil is 20°C, but she doesn't seem to care a lot. Moving pretty fast despite the low temperature, but I will not test her letting them drop to 15°C with lights out, yet. She will have 7 more days before the switch and hopefully the temperatures outside is a little higher.

Usually I don't prewater my pots, but I think that is a mistake. If you have the time to water and wait, I think it has some advantages. I'm always worried about dry spots in the veg phase and pouring water on a little seedling is just a bad choice. Now I know for sure that the soil is evenly moist. All the way to the edges and the bottom allowing the roots to go everywhere they want.

Next update in 3 days and from there I will try to update every 5 days. Any questions, advice or just a hi is welcomed

Day 7

Day 10

She took the feeding quite well on day 7. No issues. Will keep it at 1/1ml Grow/Fish until day 21 and bump it up from there and probably introduce the bloom nutes from there as well. I will add AlgaMic with the next feed which will be tomorrow. I'm trying another approach instead of watering small amounts everyday. So far no problems and I think she is moving just as fast. Light went to full power this morning and raised it a little to avoid shocking her. Will lower it again in a few days.

Looking nice mr k!
Keep up the good work

 

[MrK]

I'll do my best. Thanks for dropping by.

Day 15

I just woke her up after her first nap in 15 days. Light schedule is now 20/4.

No sign of sex yet. 3 days ago I saw some small signs of what could be a Magnesium deficiency I so fed her 1ml of Calmag. It hasn't spread so I think I caught it. Just fed her again after the pictures were taken. She (hopefully, but i bet "it" is a she) looks a little dizzy on the pictures, but...who shines when you just wakes up? I don't

 

[MrK]

She needs a little justice. Those pictures really don't show her best and I think she is too damn perfect not to show at her best. Still day 15, but very much awake

 

[Margahooja]

Good luck MrK. I like this strain.

 

[MrK]

Thank You Margahooja. I'm actually reading your journal at this very moment, again, I think
