Indoor Autos in Organic Soil with Tap Water

[Mozzy]

GC at day 18 above ground:

LZ at 6 days up, and with leaves approaching cup sides I thought I would attempt transplanting…but I assume I should have soaked the solo cup well first because the roots were ripped apart and were destroyed from sticking to the bottom of the outer cup with the drain holes, and the soil additionally fell apart trying to get the seedling replanted…so we’ll see if this survives and how:

The oldest LC in the solo is on day 2 up now:

…and the last LC that came completely out of the shell in one night while soaking, is now above ground for the first day:

Let's hope they all survive and that none of the LCs are dudes this time...

GC at day 20 above ground, decided to top and remove bottom nodes and leaves on the soil:

LZ at 8 days up, a couple days past the ugly transplant, and it hasn’t died yet:

After the LZ transplant issues I thought I would try to transplant the LCs sooner at days 3 and 2 but that went FUBAR on both as well…idk how you have soil in solos that winds up too compact, too wet, too loose, and too dry to safely transplant all at the same time in one cup, but we’ll see if these to survive now, and how…(will likely go back to germinated seeds in final containers after this mess):

...the extraction fan is still set to go out at 75%RH with temps in the high 70s-low 80s:

GC at day 23 above ground, 3 days past topping/node removal and no concerns other than it has the most node spacing I’ve had in multiple grows (likely due to light distance/intensity which I hadn’t adjusted due to the other slower starters); so I upped the dimmer to ~62% on the light and this GC at ~20” away on the far left of the tent is getting about 35 DLI at the canopy top now on 18/16:

LZ at 11 days up (5 days post traumatic-transplant)…looks like it’ll live, we’ll see if/how stunted:

LCs at 6/5 days up (3 days post traumatic-transplant)…looks like they may live too, we’ll see if/how stunted they are and hopefully at least one is not a dude :

GC at day 26 above ground and growing by the day, so I moved the light up to highest it’ll likely go this grow and I upped the dimmer to ~75% on the light so this GC canopy at ~19-22” away on the far left of the tent is getting upwards of 45 DLI at that canopy top now (hopefully that’ll curb some stretch, otherwise I may need to supercrop this one at some point); the seedlings and younger plants are 32-36 inches away; and likely going to finish this run as started on 18/16, and we're currently keeping RH in the low 70s% with light-on temps low-mid80sF and dark temps in the high 70sF:

LZ at 14 days up:

LC at 9 days up:

LC at 8 days up, and……this one wound having a friend come along that is on its 2nd day up and likely an assumed failed LC planting in that pot from ~10 days ago (tiny chance it is a LZ):

 

[Mozzy]

Day 30 GC flowering strong and growing closer to the light by the day:

Day 18 LZ topping and bottom node removal:

Day 13 LC:

Day 12/6 LCs:

Hopefully we get some sexes on the LCs, sooner rather than later, I'd like to crank the light up a little more for the flowering 30 day GC

Day 33 GC…decided it was time to remove most of the stemmed leaves for light, airflow, and space reasons:

Day 21 LZ…took the topping and bottom node removal a few days ago in stride:

Day 16 LC…I think it may be a lady :

Day 15/9 LCs:

 

[Mozzy]

Increased the dimmer to ~87% so the LZ and GC should be getting ~45-55+ DLI at 18/6 and 12 to 24 inches away at the canopies based on PPFD maps and where in the tent they are; and temps/RH are ~high 70s-low 80sF/mid-high 60s%:

Day 37 GC…took the schwazzing ~4 days ago well and is starting to get thicker and frosty:

Day 25 LZ…super healthy, will likely significantly defoliate once I figure out sexing with the little LCs :

Day 20 LC…I now think it may be a dude but going to give it another day or two before composting it just to see a little more definitively :

Day 19/13 LCs…removed the bottom nodes on the 19 day one so I could bury the trunk more as it was flopping over/growing sideways out of the ground, but I think this one may be a lady if it makes it; and no idea what’s up with the 13 day one yet (assuming it is an LC and not a LZ):

 

[Mozzy]

Down to 3 or 4 plants after removing the LC with male parts…adjusted the extraction and circulation fans and temps/RH are ~mid70s-low80sF, and trying to keep ~mid-high 50s% now:

Day 41 GC…removed the rest of the bottom stemmed leaves left over from schwazzing 8 days ago, and slowly topwatered in some additional soil for the trunk:

Day 29 LZ…removed almost every stemmed leaf for space/airflow/light/humidity reasons and slowly topwatered in some soil for the trunk:

Day 23 LC is starting to put on some bulk, and when I can confirm it is a lady I’ll decide what to do with the 17 day unknown next to it in the pot:

 

[Mozzy]

Someday we’ll grow in a bigger space…until then, we prune uncomfortably for space and airflow as needed. Upped the range of the 6” extraction fan triggers because RH was becoming an issue with all the new veggers…keeping things ~mid-high 70sF and ~mid-high 50s% with the two static fans on 24/7 still (high, and 60%):

Day 45 GC…love the structure on this strain this round, was bushier the last time so I think I timed a toping and subsequent 1st schwazz pretty good:

Day 33 LZ…uncomfortably pruned lots of small branches for environment reasons…this’ll definitely be the most lollipopped one I’ve grown. I think the first schwazz was too soon but I needed to for environment reasons…whatever I harvest from this one I would estimate to be ⅓ of what it would have been had it just been in a bigger box where branches could have stretched:

Day 27/21 LC/?…the LC started looking like a lady so I’ve been removing blocker leaves and half a node on each of the plants, given we’re going to try and keep the unknown (assuming it is an LZ or female LC)...with the bad space issues coming, I have been pruning them apart and will likely not top them to keep them straight and narrow hopefully:

 

[Mozzy]

Not a big update but I'm dumping ~2 gallons of water a day in the reservoirs for these thirsty folks, so I had to schwazz the LZ again (after removing all those branches a couple days ago), and take a few leaves from the LC/? for structures and to keep the RH in the high 50s% without collapsing the tent with the extraction fan settings…didn’t get a chance to take bushy before pictures but here’s after for future ref:

Day 35 LZ:

Day 29/23 LC/?
