- Dropped all three seeds into cups of distilled room temperature water.
11/25/18
- Transferred all 3 seeds into their paper towel homes.
11/26/18 (Happy Bday to me!)
- Filled 3-16oz with the coco/perlite. I had already rinsed all of it multiple times with distilled water, so once I got it into the cup I simply mixed up a 1/2gal of RO water with 1ml CaliMagic mixed in, ph’d it down to 5.8 and poured it through all 3 cups.
- Checked in on the seeds, White Widow(WW) had a taproot of about 1/4” after 24hrs, Early Miss(EM) had just split open, and the CBD looked the same as when I put it there.
11/27/18
- WW taproot is about 1/2”, so I transferred it into its next temporary home, the 16oz solo cup. Placed the seed about 1/4” down into the coco mix and stuck it under the 20w led twisters. Temps are around 75° and humidity was around 35-40%, so I stuck a empty water bottle, cut in half, over top of the seed.
- EM is about 1/4”, she will be ready for the solo cup in the morning, and CBD has finally just split her shell open.
11/28/18
- Popped EM into her solo cup of coco first this this morning, looks like tomorrow the CBD will be good to go.
- Picked up a small Vick’s humidifier for the cabinet, no issue with getting the RH% up to 80% now.
11/29/18
- So this morning I see that WW has finally sprouted above the coco! Exciting times [emoji1787]
- CBD finally caught up to everyone and got popped into its solo cup of coco. Temps are steady at 76° and a RH of 80%.
- Mixed up first batch of nutrients. This had to be the hardest part of the entire thing to wrap my head around. So many saying do this, while others say this, and so on... Used 1gal of RO water and mixed in 1ml of CalMag, 1ml Micro, 1ml Grow, 0.5ml Bloom. I then messed up with the PH and had to dilute it abit, so end total was 185ppm and 5.7ph.
11/30/18
- Misted all around the outer edges of the cups with the nute mix I made last night, got abit of runoff, it’s crazy how much drainage the coco/perlite allows.
- EM has now sprouted above the coco. Temps sitting at 77° and 72% RH.
12/1/18
- CBD is now above coco as well, lightly misted all the cups edges with the nute mix as well.
12/2/18
- Moved all the seedling into the larger side of the cabinet under the Vipar 900w, light height is currently 48” above the seedlings, will slowly lower down to 40-42” over the next week or so.
- Gave all 3 plants their first ‘true’ feeding, poured a small amount of the mix around the edges of the solo cups till runoff.
- Time for a learning lesson, WW has slight nute burn on her tips already, started feeding her too early I suppose.
12/3/18
- Mixed up new batch of nute’s just because I didn’t like the way the first batch came around lol. This mix went as follows, 1/2gal RO water + 55ppm CalMag + 0.5ml Micro + 0.25ml Grow + 2 drops of ArmorSi and ph’d to 5.8 for a total of 228ppm
- All plants showing slight signs of tip burn and my sloppy misting with the nute water ended up leaving small drops on the leaves resulting in small burns. Lowered light down to 44” as the plants seemed to be doing well under it.
12/4/18
- Fed all plants small amount till runoff, temps steadied out now in the larger side, got a constant 77H 66L(lights out) and 65% Rh. Was trying to snap some photos and gave the CBD some tough love with a cell phone to the face from 12”(dropped it into the cup). She’s tough though and never seemed to mind.
12/6/18
- Today’s the big day, figured I’m just gonna get these girls into their final homes sooner rather than later, so I filled 3 of the 5gal grow bags with the coco mix and flushed a gallon of RO water through each filled bag to precharge it. In the gallon of water I mixed in 2.5ml Micro, 2.5ml Grow, 0.6ml Bloom, and CaliMagic for a total of 480ppm 5.8 ph. All the plants are looking good and praying to the light, so let’s see if I can upset them haha.
- Made an imprint into the 5gal bag with an empty solo cup, then sprinkled in some Pro-Mix root stim in the impressions. Carefully removed the plants from their solo cups and got them all into their final homes. Wasn’t the smoothest, but I didn’t drop anything so there’s that!
12/7/18
- All 3 plants are still standing, so I didn’t screw em up too bad with the transplant yesterday, fed them all with the remainder of the initial 228ppm mix
- Mixed up week 2’s batch of nutes, this week I’m going with a mix of 1gal RO water + 1ml ArmorSi + 2ml CaliMagic + 2.5ml Micro + 2.5ml Grow + 2.5ml Bloom for a total of 453ppm without any ph buffering, will adjust ph tomorrow just before feeding. Temps are still 77° H and 62°L (Picking up a small heater for inside the cabinet, just so I don’t have to run my large garage heater to adjust for temperature. I’m up in Northern Canada so it’s getting cold outside!)
- Lights were put down to 42” to see how the plants react. Manufacturers recommended height for seedlings is 40-44”. Here is a quick pic of WW as of this morning.
And that brings everybody up to date with my current situation, I will post regular updates here and pick everybody’s brains till I can get a good handle on the whole process! Cheers and Easy smoking! [emoji869]
