Took the top-left seedling and put her under ~37watts of led. It will be enough for a few days while she’s trying to find her way down to that nutrient-rich water.
Set the EC at 0.95 and PH at 5.69.

The others are under my 450w LED but at lowest possible power.

If the seedling I picked, the one damaged tap-root doesn’t show vigor within a few days, I’m not sure what I will do as I really want to grow out that phenotype...

Looking good mate, I hope she is the 'One'

Thanks Antonio!

She will definitely get a lot of buds, she WILL be bigger then the other pheno but I’m not sure she has the same solid structure to hold up all the heavy colas without collapsing of her own weight.

Your welcome brother
I'm not trying to be an but how can you conclude that from just looking a seedling of one week old?

Besides the genetics, the structure of a plant is influenced a lot by the environment, nutrients, grower and care she receives.
And even sometimes a small seedling will turn out to become the biggest monster, its very difficult to predict how a plant is going to grow/stretch and flower when they are just babies.

Let's hope you picked the right one!

Hey there....

I look at the structure of the seedlings, the length, width of the stem... What kind of leafs they have - long, wide, narrow, fat etc.

How the leafs responds to a higher light-level or responds to nutrients.

Im looking at them like they were adults - full grown plants but in miniature.

As I have seen a couple of plants been grown from start to finish I have tried to - or, I just remember details from them that is important for me to know to get big buds.

You as a breeder must have seen 10.000s of plants been grown from seed to weed and you could probably pick a winning seedling at day 1.... or a 1 that got the traits that you are looking for

I know the environment plays a big role in how the girl/girls will grow and IMO the biggest factor is how the grower adjusting their lights throughout the grow, but especially in
the early stages (say first 3 weeks) of growth to get that perfect start.

I want to be clear that this is only my second attempt in hydro so you are more then welcomed to leave a tip or two

1 week old today.

No visible roots in the rez yet... but I bet they are on their way.

Hi bro your off to a great start but the silver bullet roots I bought a big bottle of that but was warned it takes all the good stuff out of your media @Mañ'O'Green told me about it so I thought I'd mention it

Hello and thank you St. Tom!

It was the only root-rot prevent/killer that was available. None of the four grow-shops here sells Hydroguard, that would have been my first choice but I have tried get my hands on it without success.



Thank you @Wian

Good catch @St. Tom 1/2 of the money @AMG spent on AN nutrients will be killed by the Silver Bullet. I also have not had luck doing sterile hydro. He would be better off with Botinicare HydroGuard IMPO.
