Day 10
Just a little update.
Temps have been hot this past week so I have tried to make sure the ladies remain in good condition.
They have only had approx 2 litres of water per pot in the 10 days including their first coco wet.
I have applied boom boom spray twice, once about 6 days ago and the other this morning while temps don’t go soaring, although it sits warm enough in there approx 28c at 10:30am.
I gave them 1ml of boom boom spray to 250ml of water. Gave them a little spray, front and back and put the propogator lids back on, so they can have some nice humidity for a bit, when the teams heat up more I will remove the lids and let the air get around them and replenish.
I have been running them under the lids most of the time and giving them approx 2 hours a day for air movement and to strengthen their stems. I don’t like the humidity to much, so don’t want to take them out of the propogator lids just yet, I had humidity at under 30 yesterday when the heat was kicking in at 35c
I have been trying to cool the room in different ways, portable air on (this didn’t work as it was pumping hot air back in, even when I put the exhaust to the carbon filter.. I have put frozen drink bottles in there etc, put them in a plastic bag and out my intake duct into, somaif blasted and cooled over the bottles. This seemed to help, but I am now after a cheap copper so it will keep the ice cold for longer, I will stick a fan in the top of it and an exhaust so it blows the cold air out, that’s my next plan. Similar to this...
Anyways, here are the little ladies. I took the photos through the groom glasses.
