My little Dragons are growing very nicely. Final count is 6 seedlings. One is bigger than the others, the rest are a uniform size. Three have one slightly deformed leave, but that’s not unusual in seedlings. I figure in about a week I'll switch lights to boost the available light. I was going to run two, 300 watt Mars Hydro old style lights in the tent, but I'm going to add them to the 192x3 Reflector in my thread on growing a one pound + autoflower. I'll use my "fake" 900 watt light ( it barely rates as a 450 watt with an actual power usage of 247 watts... ). It actually works well and I've gotten some nice bud using it.
I've also go 2 of my three surviving Dragon Kush. Think I may need to make some STS to save them!
This is the first day they've recived moire thana couple ounces of water. Each got about 12 ounces to day of RO water with 125 ppms of cal/mag. Next watering I'll up it to 18 ounces. I do not like watering to runoff when growing in soil so I gradually work up to just barely enough to saturate the pot. My experimenting seems to show that 32oz of water are about perfect for saturating a 2 gallon pot so that will be my max when the plants enter late veg stage.
My goal is always healthy plants. I'm not trying for monsters, these are breeding stock for a strain in danger of disappearing.
Hello younglings
Nice to see a host of Dragons.
Not sure what the collective name for Dragons is, so i used a Host, sounds good to me.
Hmm just found this - Some collective nouns for dragons are a flight of dragons, a weyr of dragons, or a wing of dragons.
No matter what the collective noun for dragons is, they are looking good pop.
Look forward to seeing more
Wasn't planning pics for a few days but these Dragons have had a real burst of growth just since yesterday! I'll get pics in the morning, vaped too much Blue Dragon............
I keep my LEDs at 24" inches about for seedlings. I like that they stretch a bit but not too much and they lights not too intense for them. When they get maybe 8-10" tall, I'll lower the light to 18" for the 192x3 Reflector. The 300 watt old style can be dropped to 16" and have run as close as 14".
